I've been told this is starting tonight. I've already snagged mine. I believe 20% off the 65" also.

Sorry if I haven't done this post right, just sharing to help those who want to get in.

    That's a pretty decent deal, but Videopro already has a pretty similar price ($2480)

      I bought my CX 55 about 2 weeks ago at JB Hi Fi and got them to match VideoPro price of $2470 plus delivery.

      Ouch. Got my Dad to buy one from Good Guys in their 15% off sale last night for $2630.75, so this is a bit shitty. Anyone know if Good Guys will refund the difference for a price match?

      • tonyamazing on 21/04/2021 - 19:37

        Unlikely because of coupon

    • chimpinsox on 21/04/2021 - 20:21

      Good one CC123 - I've been tracking these prices for the longest time and I too took the plunge - weighing up stock availability vs cash discount. They may drop again over the next few months but I needed it now and I'm happy with $2367. I can collect it at my leisure in the morning from the local store 4km away and also get 1% cashrewards (lol). Makes the ebay plus fees worth it for the $230 saved on this deal. Very happy.

      C1 is not much of an upgrade, G1 gets a new brighter panel.

      • capslock janitor on 22/04/2021 - 00:32

        Why number back down to 1 now

        • ReaveJones on 22/04/2021 - 09:03
          +1

          I assume that number refers to the year, ie. C1 is 2021 CX was 2020 because X is 10 in Roman.

    • Spizz on 21/04/2021 - 18:57

      And the new 2021 48" C1 $2799-

      Awful pricing for OLED for another year?

      • Elyxar on 21/04/2021 - 21:22

        Samsung is getting into the OLED game next year I think, using LG panels. Will that increase competition and drop prices? Time will tell.

          Price drops in USA but not looking good here.

          TCL is building a fab. Online in 2023. Only way prices will come down is if someone builds a fab and stops relying on LG.

          Samsung is rumored to be selling OLED tv's next year, but they will be producing their own. Samsung Display will producing the panels and selling them to Samsung Electronics. It will be QD-OLED which promises to be brighter than LG's OLED.

      Maaan, that pricing is crazy. Its only supposed to be $1800 USD for the 55"C1 which would convert to about $2300 AUD.
      Thats a $1000 mark up for the Au market! Would it not be cheaper to simply pay for shipping from the US?
      $2500USD for the 65" would convert to around $3200 AUD. Is the Australia tax this bad every time or are the retailers just taking us for a ride?

      • DeToxin on 22/04/2021 - 20:15

        I dont think you would get quite that conversion rate, and then you need to add GST. Say 2400aud + gst + shipping. Not trying to say pricing here is good but I don't think those numbers are particularly fair

      • bmerigan on 22/04/2021 - 21:27

        Also covers the cost of supplying a really good warranty system in Australia

        • capslock janitor on 22/04/2021 - 00:35

          HDTV test channel explained why the cost of 48 is more

          Basically when they cut this size from the mother-panel there's more wastage iirc

        09/04/2021 not sure why it matters, it was on sale then and it's on sale now, I posted the invoice so the point is you probably can/should be able to get it cheaper than this "deal"

          Easter sales ended 11/04 and retailers are obliged to follow LGs pricing which is back up. This is what multiple employees at multiple stores said on 15/04. Retailers can create greater sales in holiday periods / seasonal events such as Easter, Christmas, EOFY.

        • Wawasjohn on 22/04/2021 - 07:53

          How did miss that, ive been looking every day waiting for a price under 2400. Do think I could use this for the same?

    This is the TV that apparently r/4ktv cream their pants about everyday.

    I saw it in person at JB Hi-Fi and I must say LG's OLED are another level above any LED TV.

      Yes I managed $3125.50 from jb a few weeks ago, seems they will negotiate a bit.

      • colocol10 on 22/04/2021 - 07:52

        That’s great. How do you negotiate it that far down? No stock in my local area, so may need to buy online

          I talked about it on a previous post but essentially when JB had it on special I rang bing lee and asked if they could do any better and they dropped it by about $90, I then rang JB and asked them if they would match that price because I had lots of JB gift cards and preferred to buy there.

          They said yes without requiring proof of the bing Lee price and sent me through a link to pay and I noticed in the link that I had an option for a coupon code so I use the 5% coupon that was floating around that weekend. Still not the super deal I was hoping for but Probably about as low as I could’ve got it at the time.

    CX is clearing out quickly at least on the coast here.

    I called around all retailers this morning and got told only 1 or 2 left in the warehouse. Pulled the trigger on the Good Guys as they gave me the best offer I can get in 15 mins - $3,390+ $55 delivery for the last brand new one in their shop. The display got sold in the afternoon as well.

    Then drove around the city and bought 30 something 10% off Ultimate Home Giftcards from Woolies. Combined with CBAs $50 off $250 at TGG.

    So in short paid a total of less than $3080 for a brand new CX 65!. Thanks for the post truly otherwise might miss out again.
