Some people might already have price matched big ticket items sitting in their Sony cart, waiting for a decent cash back rate like this. This is as good as it gets.

The usual way to take advantage of this cash back is to request price match with the best price you can find from an Aust store selling Aust distributed Sony products (not direct imports). There's a price match request link in Sony online store.

Stack with AmEx Statement Credits: Spend $500 or More, Get $75 Back @ SONY.

E.g. Try price match these deals:

Cash Rewards T&Cs.
Shopback T&Cs.

Price match instruction:

  1. Create a Sony account if you do not have one.
  2. Add item to cart.
  3. There an option to request price match on the same page, enter details of the price match vendor etc.
  4. Within a business day, Sony will email you yay or nay. The price will be updated in your cart.
  5. Activate CR or SB for tracking. Make payment.

    Could be better with a Sony cashback.

  • manutd123 on 24/05/2022 - 15:34

    Just beware that mine did not track and had to put through a manual claim.

    • Buy2Much on 24/05/2022 - 15:35

      ShopBack or Cashrewards?

      • manutd123 on 24/05/2022 - 16:12

        Cashrewards. I ended up using ShopBack and it tracked fine for the same product.

        • Clear on 24/05/2022 - 16:29

          So you used Cashrewards AND Shopback with only the latter tracking. Haha no wonder it didn't work if you're trying to double dip. Sony can't allocate commission to two parties.

          • manutd123 on 24/05/2022 - 16:34

            @Clear: I’ll let you re-read your comments to see if you’re making any sense. But to make it clear, purchase via Cashrewards was a week ago and it didn’t track. ShopBack was only done today and it tracked. Go figure.

              @manutd123: I read my comment again it still makes sense that double dipping doesn't work. If you didn't attempt to double dip then that's something different.

              • manutd123 on 24/05/2022 - 16:59

                @Clear: I’ll give you another chance. Read my comments again above yours and then go read the TnC on Cashrewards (since you love them more) then go back and re-read your initial comment.

                I’ll give you 1 simple example here. If I buy 10 of the same product at 10 different times and each time I go through the cash back app, they should all track. I’ll let you decide whether it’s a ‘yes’ or ‘no’.

            @Clear: How do you use both apps at the same time for one purchase? 🤔

            • Clear on 25/05/2022 - 07:27

              @neezy: More so with the website people click through CR and then through another tab click through SB. Obviously voids it.

              • neezy on 25/05/2022 - 09:09

                @Clear: Ah ok.

                But how do you make one purchase over two tabs/windows? 🤔

                • Clear on 25/05/2022 - 09:34

                  @neezy: You don't. You can't stack them.

                  • neezy on 26/05/2022 - 09:45

                    @Clear: So how is it possible to double dip?

                    Even though it's not technically possible because, as you mentioned, it wouldn't go through.

                    But how do you even attempt to double dip with different Cash Back apps? 🤔

                    (P.S. thank you for replying btw 😊 most ppl would have given up on me by now)

                    • Clear on 26/05/2022 - 09:46

                      @neezy: People who don't understand cashback will click through CR and then on another tab click through SB or vice versa and then shop. Obviously that's not going to work and the sale will likely attribute to whoever made the last click.

                      • neezy on 26/05/2022 - 09:52

                        @Clear: Ok, I think I am understanding now…

                        So ppl would open two tabs, each via a different Cash Back window.

                        But in order to receive to Cash Back, you would have to complete the order I.e. make the purchase.

                        If you complete the purchase of both tabs, you've bought two items. And you'll receive the corresponding Cash Back for each item on each tab.

                        Are you saying, people only purchase on one tab… and not the other… and assume it'll still be tracked on both tabs (even though you didn't complete the purchase on the other one)?

                        [Thank you again for replying and helping me 😊]

                        • Clear on 26/05/2022 - 09:59

                          @neezy: No it's more a case of you're wanting to buy 1 product and you go to both CR and SB and activate cashback thinking they'll both track the same purchase.

                          • neezy on 26/05/2022 - 10:13

                            @Clear: But why would someone think it will track if they have not made a purchase in that specific window?

                            So…

                            1. Open Sony website via CR on one tab.

                            2. Open Sony website via SB on another tab.

                            3. Complete purchase only on one tab.

                            4. Do not complete purchase on other tab (and just hope, somehow, that what you did on a seperate tab with a separate Cash Back company, will track that purchase, even though it's still just sitting in the cart 🤔)

    • lawyerz on 24/05/2022 - 16:47

            @mahdoo: No. I just know exactly how the affiliate space works, and I can categorically tell you that if an item tracks for one provider, it will do for the other as well provided you didn't click away before purchase or activated Honey etc. Tracking is NOT done by the cashback providers. It's done by 3rd party networks, and I know for sure that both CR & SB use Impact Radius for Sony.

      use Costco to buy if you can. Sony, Samsung, LG customer services Australian based are very bad compare to other countries

      • The Almighty Dollar on 24/05/2022 - 16:32

        I phoned Costco to ask how they’d deal with a TV that has developed problems after Costco’s 90 day change of mind policy. They said that you’d have to go through the manufacturer. It may differ around stores but if true there might not be much benefit to shopping there.

        • BillyG687 on 24/05/2022 - 17:55
          +4

          Legally they can’t tell you that you have to go to the manufacturer during the warranty period.

          Consumer Law says you have the choice on whether you want to deal with the retailer or manufacture. They cannot tell you that you have to go directly to Sony, Samsung etc.

        Update: I was able to price match with JB and TGG for $494. Submitted 2 Proce match requests on Sony website saying both other stores have 10% off for click frenzy. Once got rejected as exclusion under the coupon policy. However, the second one got approved.

        Just places an order for 1000XM5 + $18 cheap headphones for $512.

        Cashback $75 from Amex + $10% from Shopback.

          I also got the price match for the TGG, just put the date as the 25th, the jb hifi one is not accepted as the headphones are part of the exclusions for the 10% off. I just added the cheapest earbuds to get it above 500 to double down with amex and cashback.

I am afraid I may lose the cashback by then. For a 85 mm lens priced at 1819, I am 182 as cashback and 75 back from Amex which is 257 dollars back. Just amazing deal.

    Before you order, be aware that Sony post-sales Customer Service is very poor, and you could end up very unlucky like I was.

    I paid $3k for a TV 5 weeks ago. It was delivered in a damaged box, screen was cracked and Sony have absolved themselves of any and all responsibility. Before some price says I damaged it during the unpacking, that is simply not the case and This is not an isolated incident. The technician that did an assessment on behalf of Sony (not a Sony employee) told me he's doing many assessments for the same issue in QLD, perhaps a bad batch, who knows. I price matched and ordered through Sony when they had a Cash Rewards promo (OzBaragainer, yo) so thought I got a good deal, but it caused a lot of stress and frustration and I deeply regret the purchase. If you order through Sony direct, good luck.

  • dumbass777 on 24/05/2022 - 22:15

    Instead of going for Sony 85mm f1.4, I decided to go for Sigma 85mm f1.4 dg dn from ebay where I got 20% Cashback. Got almost 287 dollar discount (ebay plus) than the normal advertised price óf 1359. Loving it.

    I waited for the Sony price match. The customer service made me to register at their website and then send a request and they are closed after 5 pm.
