From Tech Warehouse via Kogan
It says "Leaves warehouse in 1-2 business days"
Price dropped from $649
Whilst not the historic low, it's the cheapest for some months
It seems that all the sellers at Aliexpress are not shipping Roborock vacuums to Australia

    This is the seller that kept delaying people's preorders. Has anyone who ordered from them receive theirs yet?

      Yeah I had a pre-order for my mother and it was delivered on the 31st of last month.

      • Morien on 07/04/2021 - 21:25

        Thanks for confirming. I guess it's safe now.

    Still waiting on $500-550 again

    • EarlyBird on 07/04/2021 - 20:24

      It's a popular model. You'll probably have to wait until November for that. Maybe the black model will be available by then

    • pete8oes on 07/04/2021 - 20:36

      Same….. maybe now that the s7 has been released….

    • xdivino on 07/04/2021 - 21:04

      $500 range or will hold out for S7/S8/S9 in that range…

  • mrcherry on 07/04/2021 - 20:23

    Just moved to a new apartment and been waiting for this to go down, was hoping for the >$600 mark but have pulled the trigger. Time will tell if there are issues with supply!

      Not covered by Roborock AU warranty.
      Roborock AU has been price gouging in Australia. In most other countries, the model sells for under $600

      • capslock janitor on 09/04/2021 - 12:01

        RR-AU currently 800 with Easter promo :/

  • Rialonda on 07/04/2021 - 20:49

    Just waiting for S7 to be available in Australia. Prob a few months away still - as sold out fast overseas :(
    If it does come in at a fortune, I'm sure it will put downward pressure regardless on the other models.

  • holymackerel on 07/04/2021 - 20:54

    i got mine for $410 plus $120 DHL postage from direct alibaba. Like people said they dont ship to australia from aliexpress. only thing is warranty will be an issue but for that price im willing to take that risk.

    • audeals on 07/04/2021 - 22:18

      Can you share the link where you ordered from Alibaba? Interested to buy it.

        https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Global-Version-Roboro…

        You can negotiate on the chat, think I got it for like $300 USD. I could have saved a bit on postage and ship it to my family in HK then post it to Australia, but got lazy and got it shipped directly from Shenzhen with DHL to Melbourne, took about 7 days.

        • holymackerel on 07/04/2021 - 22:32
          +3

          TBH, I think Kogan and other retailers probably buy it from these wholesalers for like 20 to 30% cheaper and bulk ship them to Australia.

        • ToonarmY on 08/04/2021 - 08:26

          Thanks, was the postage alot?

          Ignore that just re-read $120

        • audeals on 08/04/2021 - 09:56

          Was the total charge included custom/import charges = $410 plus $120 DHL = $530 AUD ?

          • holymackerel on 08/04/2021 - 12:47
            +2

            @audeals: sounds about right, because they charge usd so exchange can be a little different also depends if you pay with credit card or other method there is a small surchage like 5 to 15 dollars.

            because this is by international mail to us ( i believe that is why they use DHL ) anything under $1000 is not required import tax. if you ship it by air or sea youll need a agent to make a self assessed clearance declaration.

  • Nyclix on 07/04/2021 - 21:07

    Love my S5 max and I paid $779.

    Best purchase made. If anyone on the fence, this one is really good.

  • bluebluebird on 07/04/2021 - 21:22

    how does the warranty work then in this case?

  • bataleon on 07/04/2021 - 21:24

    Waiting for the S4 Max…

    • Morien on 07/04/2021 - 21:27

      Maybe the S6 Pure? Seem to recall hearing that it is identical to the S5 Max but without the mop function.

      • bluebluebird on 07/04/2021 - 21:28

        So you reckon S6 PURE is OK as Vac as I do not really need mop function.

        • Morien on 07/04/2021 - 21:41

          Research it to double check, but that's what I recall reading.

        • cyssero on 07/04/2021 - 22:01

          S6 Pure is almost identical for vac. I've been testing one this week. The mop is slightly better on the S5 Max, but I don't think either are very good when looking at reviews. Water tank is better and is electronically controlled in the S5 Max.

      • bataleon on 07/04/2021 - 21:30

        Champion, thanks mate. @Morien

  • freddx on 07/04/2021 - 21:55

    I bought a grey import from a local online reseller. The left wheel became really stiff and would not turn after only a month of use, the robot wasn't even able to back out of the dock. Roborock Australia did not want to know me at all after countless correspondence from me and the reseller. They did not have a number you can just ring and emails were ignored. They weren't even interested when the reseller offered out of (his) pocket repair, so you can say after-sale support for grey imports are non-existent in OZ. Luckily I do have the know-how to order a replacement part and fixed it myself. It was quite difficult and took me about 2 hours, reseller reimbursed me the part cost. I do not know if they treat their customers who bought local stock the same way but I would steer clear of greys if you are willing to go through what I went through or have faith in Kogan.

    Can someone explain to me how the price of this model shot up? I bought ours over 2 years ago, and it was $4xx, but every deal in the last 12 months seems to easily be >$500, why? This is the same V2 model with the mopping functionality that I have from what I can see.

      s5 max was released dec 2019

    • justtoreply on 08/04/2021 - 10:54

      Because they are d.cks.

      So nobody buys them now.

  • KenDiaMoi on 07/04/2021 - 23:49

    one of my fave recent purchases.

    its so good.

  • Syco on 08/04/2021 - 06:23

    Bought it when catch wrongly advertised it for $569 I think it was, then Kogan matched the price.
    Best buy ever but warring, if you buy it you have to clean the mop, add water and empty the dust bin and schedule the cleaning general maintenance.
    Apparently the misses hasn't got a clue how to do any of that as it's rocket science!
    😫😫😫

    And wash the mop after each run as it stinks if you leave it on.

  • freq flyer on 08/04/2021 - 10:31

    If anyone doesn't want to deal with Kogan, there is an option to price match via appliances online. I just did that.

    • justtoreply on 08/04/2021 - 10:55

      Lucky. This is a grey import.

      • freq flyer on 08/04/2021 - 11:02
        +1

        I thought the same.. I feel more comfortable with Appliances Online than dealing with Kogan. I chatted online and they actually priced matched before I even pointed out the Kogan offer. Perhaps they didn't scroll down enough to read the "international model" part!

        • Jume on 08/04/2021 - 11:06

          Do you have a receipt or invoice? I just spoke to someone and they said they don't price match with Kogan.

          Edit: AO Rep said he couldn't price match Kogan but could do Dick Smith for the same price!

            i am taking to one who says he is having issue matching exact model number with docksmith

            update: the rep spoke to manager and pricematch was done

          is the one on AO = AU stock?

  • mrcherry on 09/04/2021 - 21:13

    Received mine today after ordering 07/04. Didn't come with AU plug which wasn't too big a deal as I'm a bit of a cord hoarder and had spares. My AusPost tracking has shown a second parcel from Kogan due to be delivered Monday when I haven't ordered anything else, it's possible they're shipping the AU plug separately. Otherwise I'm happy with the product and delivery time.

    • alastor on 10/04/2021 - 22:57

      Can i return received and order new for dropped price?

      • debitbankcharges on 10/04/2021 - 22:59

        Unsure tbh, but I don't they'd allow cancellations for change of mind. It's worth asking them though!

        • alastor on 10/04/2021 - 23:16

          My own is still with aus post. Missed delivery.
          Will it go back if i don't pick up from business centre?

    • SpacePolitix on 10/04/2021 - 23:03

      Thank you! I just pulled the trigger. Hopefully the low price justifies the risk of grey market item…
