The RRP for this is $79 which JB HiFi still list as: https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/retro-gaming-game-watch-t…
Though it's not a big discount, it is cheaper than what it is meant to retail for.
And loots taxpayers

Prays on elderly by selling them unnecessary stuff.
Gerry Harvey was a greedy crooked tax thief through covid which pissed a lot of people off.
Meanwhile IKEA, Apple, Uber, Amazon, Google, Netflix etc all pay very little tax in Australia by shifting massive profits overseas, but we all are all on board for supporting them. Turns out most large corporations are tax evaders, but when they are home grown we get more upset.
Nope, it's the fact that he actually lobbied the government for MORE taxes on consumers.
Seriously? Where have you been? From introducing GST on foreign goods to ripping off people on Jobseekers. Harvey Norman should be the last retail store for you to buy anything from.

Record profits during pandemic, stole money from tax payers, won't pay decent wage to staff, openly mock staff on social media when confronted
Oh and lobbied the government to introduce gst on ALL imports.
(profanity) Harvey Norman
Harvey Norman kept $22 million of taxpayer dollars in the form of JobKeeper payments despite reporting more than doubling net profit over part of the period with Gerry declaring the pandemic as “the greatest boom I’ve seen in my lifetime”.
Turns out that many of those “hundreds” of Australians employed at Harvey Norman are not being paid very well and they’re not happy about their work conditions so they decided to ask for a 3.5% raise. Gerry publicly told them to get stuffed.
Then a former employee said on the socials that working at Harvey Norman drove them to thoughts of suicide. In response, the company tweeted a ‘face-palm’🤦♀️ and ‘waving goodbye’ emoji 👋 and then blocked almost everyone on Twitter.
Let’s not forget that well before all of the above, Gerry Harvey said giving money to people who "are not putting anything back into the community" is like "helping a whole heap of no-hopers to survive for no good reason", which honestly sounds like something directly out of Aktion T4.
So, yeah, what’s not to love about Harvey?
I’m sure Bezos is just as lovely.
Not to mention he called us all … :throws up in mouth a little bit: … professionals!
Delivery cost kinda kills the deal though…
Am I the only one who’s be more interested in these if they played the original Game & Watch LCD games? (At this price, preferably a lot of them.)
What I’d like is a dual screen version for Donkey Kong etc. I guess Game & Watch Collection 1 & 2 for NDS is the best available option.
I have a stack of the dual screen and single screen. Each one cost way more than these. I don't want them to ruine great nostalgia as they can never do it right.
You’d still have your stack either way. My stack was rendered non-functional through overuse.
Sweet, another way to play the original Zelda. Only three more and I get a free addiction consultation.
Nice price…
so glad I got this on amazon for that price delivery included :D
I couldn’t find it on Amazon. Will keep an eye out then.
thats because its sold out on Amazon. When it was 69 bucks on that it was sold out within minutes. Never restocked since then.
Why no pickup
They're probably not even making it to store shelves (why bother making space for them when they just sell out in minutes?), just shipped from warehouses.
Guess so but this one hasn't sold out yet where stores that offer pickup have sold out in a day.
thats ashame. Should have got the amazon one free delievery :D
Price has gone up to $79
