Apple AirPods Pro w/ Magsafe Charging Case $325 (Free C&C or Postage ~$5) @ Umart ($308.75 Price Beat @ Officeworks)

100

Wanted to make use of a recent deal - $325 for Amazon, price beat by Officeworks to $308.75. Of course I didn't check the current price, nor remembered the policy. As Amazon's price was the same as Officeworks, they only offered to match.

After a few perfect moments of embarrassment, "we don't match mydeal.com.au, we don't match eBay even if they are an Australian company", old faithful Umart had what I needed.

For the specific deal - buying from Umart - checked postage to Perth (other side of the country from Umart) - $5 Standard / $10 Express. But truly, why do that when you can get them at a lot of Officeworks stores - with a no-questions-asked return policy!

Sadly I made use of this because it didn't live up to my hopes. I still recommend them for most people who don't want to connect their headphones to six different devices, and pays way too much attention to the audio cancelling and microphone quality. They've got a great mic, but they cancel nowhere near as well as others. I grumble at Sony most days for including the same crappy microphone in both the WH-1000XM3 and XM4. I want my conversations recorded without my knowledge at high fidelity - is that so much to ask?

To join the inevitable comments. I remember helping a then-lover to get a pair of Pros from Officeworks, price matched to ~$280 back in mid-2020. Ah, warm memories.

Have a good day.

    • That's great, I would definitely give that a go.
      I hear some stores do not offer price beat with Kogan or Dick Smith - the same answer I got with mydeal.com.au.
      One of the things they checked for - Officeworks Adelaide St Brisbane - was whether the model number showed up the same as their listing. "MLWK3ZA/A" didn't show anything on the Kogan site.

      Always worth a try though!

    • Grey import

  • Catch is cheaper $319 and if you are their member only $299.

      Same as my comment to the Dick Smith link - the Catch page doesn't show that model number. OW staff are trained to line that up, as well as whether it is Australia & In-Stock - they also have to report which site they are matching, which goes back to HQ.

      Worth a try, many employees & their managers likely wouldn't give a toss.

    $300 at Costco if you have membership

    • Also 285 in app with “shopapp” code - thanks, bought

  • If you choose to PM at OW, don't forget to use discounted GC from ShopBack if you can go price match in store

    • Where do you get discounted GC's for Officeworks from ShopBack? It currently says OW is unavailable as a store.

    Price matched it to Vchainstoreau at Bendigo officeworks. $280.25. Super friendly staff. Even they opened the vchainstoreau deal from ozbargain on their computer as I had poor cell reception instore.

    • Thanks. Used Vchainstoreau (currently $289) to match to my local Officeworks for $274.55.
