      Huh? What if they haven't sold out?

      • awkwardpaws on 08/11/2011 - 15:11

        i argued with them, but said that they wont give me the $46 price coz apparently HN has soldout

        Dick Smith also wont price match on the basis that they dont do price matches, the sales rep said.

        these are for the stores on George St, Sydney CBD

          I would have said "I'm going to HN now to take a picture of the game instock, and will be emailing this along with your name to head office".

        • JayEmmGee on 08/11/2011 - 15:53

          Dick Smith don't price match? News to me: http://dicksmith.com.au/help/price-matching-content

          They wouldn't price match for me because it was 'below cost price'. Nothing about that at their website. Already made a complaint.

        • bargainsniper on 08/11/2011 - 17:19

          Yeah, I got told the same thing at the George St DSE store. The girl at the counter told me they no longer price match. So I had to walk further down to Martin Place HN to buy it.

        • 17833 on 08/11/2011 - 18:17

          DSE in Melbourne wouldn't price match either. The guy looked at me and said their cost was $75, $1 less than their shelf price (!!) I have found DSE hopeless for price matching in the last year.

        • cheng2008 on 08/11/2011 - 22:36

          they'll always have a way to get out of it, some tiny clause hidden in the fine print.

          only thing to do is to move to another store that will do it.

    • LDS on 08/11/2011 - 17:32

      HN Bunbury WA has 46 copy's as of 1 hr ago

  • schwengy on 08/11/2011 - 15:39

    Pretty good deal, traded in Uncharted 3 for MW3 and traded mw1+2 and uncharted 1 for Batman Arkham City

    Anyone know where to get any cheap games that aren't on the exclusion list for the 3 for 1 deal?

    http://www.jbhifi.com.au/images/games/excluded-games.pdf?utm…

    It's ending tomorrow and they're just doing 1 for 1 newer games instead.

        sorry its at home, will post both tonight.

        I went to bankstown dse with a print off of
        http://dicksmith.com.au/help/price-matching-content
        http://www.harveynorman.com.au/product/1256974990758/infamou…

        When I got to dse all the copies of infamous were not on show.
        Staff member asked if he could help. I asked for a copy of infamous 2

        He went out the back and came back with a copy and a piece of paper that said $89 take to the counter to pay. Then got out my 2 print off's staff member then called harvey norman and price matched it for me.

        Manager was not happy, looks like they took it off show.

        • lsp on 09/11/2011 - 17:42

          Thanks it's off the list now so don't worry, Dick Smith just said flat out the wouldn't do it, no checking, no call…eh, I just bought it from mariio instead.

  • Freeslave_44 on 08/11/2011 - 19:12

    quite late to this party but still managed to score a pre-owned copy of infamous 2 at EB George street.

    there were 3 other guys in front of me who were frantically browsing through the games, surely looking for infamous 2. found the last copy (special edition) which was hidden at the bottom of the pile. i felt bad for them a bit.

    had a bit of an issue when I traded it in cause only std edition is registered on JBs system but got there in the end.

    Harvey Norman Garden City had stock and JB Mt Gravett accepted at 4pm. But they deffinitly knew what was going on. Doubt it will last long.

  • mxyzptik on 08/11/2011 - 20:48

    GRRRREAT deal.

    Unfortunately I don't have a manual for one of the eligible games … Dead Island … rang Lonsdale St & they said they couldn't accept without the manual … which is fair enough …

    Wondering if there is any way around this?

    • nubzy on 08/11/2011 - 22:07

      print one out and stick it in, they dont bother to check the manual apart from seeing its there.

      • mxyzptik on 09/11/2011 - 07:31

        Worth a try :) … haven't found one online yet (360 version)

    • jps433 on 09/11/2011 - 11:46

      just put any paper from another game in they never check it

  • Timtastic on 08/11/2011 - 21:52

    Worked perfectly at castle hill this morning. Bought inFamous 2 at Harvey Norman and walked 10 seconds down a floor to JB Hifi and traded for mw3 on 360. Thanks op!

    i'd hate to be the execs walking into JB offices tomorrow and being told they have an extra 20k copies or whatever of infamous to get rid of.

      Good for me because I actually want Infamous 2 on the cheap. Fire sale anyone? :D

    • wninja on 09/11/2011 - 09:11

      lady at jb bankstown told me I was the 30th+ customer to trade in infamous2

  • nubzy on 08/11/2011 - 23:32

    I hope you guys dont destroy the deal by trading all those infamous copies in

    still its a good game and just came out so I think they will be able to sell it for a decent price

  • kayzer on 09/11/2011 - 12:36

    just an update but you should take off infamous 2!

    Can you trade a dead island XBOX360 game and get PS3 MW3? or will i get the XBOX360 version of MW3

    • PainToad on 09/11/2011 - 13:38

      Been asked before, but yes you can.

  • Xenox1997 on 09/11/2011 - 23:45

    jb hifi isnt taking infamous 2 anymore. checked the list and called them :(

  • hj14 on 10/11/2011 - 09:14

    Bought FIFA 12 for $69 at HN, and traded in for MW3, this might be the next cheapest option.

    • ghostdom on 10/11/2011 - 10:40

      $69 to be the next cheapest option? not that easy.
      My 20 bucks cheaper way. Just traded in my Gears of war 3 (bought under $50 from OZgameshop)at Jbhifi. And ordered another copy of GOW 3 from ozgameshop again.

      Ps: their website back to live again.

    • Joshyss on 10/11/2011 - 16:54

      Modern Warfare 3 is $68 at WOW…

      http://shop.1wow.com.au/xbox-360-call-of-duty-modern-warfare…

  • mxyzptik on 10/11/2011 - 11:53

    Infamous 2:

    Long story short: JB guy told me on the phone on Tuesday evening I could swap Infamous 2 on Wednesday - "no need to bring it in tonight … no way they would pull it" on Wednesday, he said. On Wednesday (incidentally he had left their employ) JB staff said no I couldn't. This morning, after "No"s from 3 different staff and 2 hours later, the manager said they would honour their offer!

    Seemed like getting blood out of a stone … but all's well that ends well, I guess.

    NB Legally - in short - it seems they were obliged to honour that explicit offer (the terms shown on the website, which I was unaware of, do not override the verbal offer in this case). However, proving the offer may have proved difficult, especially given, coincidentally, the guy no longer works for them.

  • AzzaD on 10/11/2011 - 12:20

    just found this on eBay's deals section - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Call-Duty-Modern-Warfare-3-III-CO…

    You can buy Modern Warfare 3 brand new now for $68 at WOW superstores if you can't find a cheaper game to trade in at JB.
