I think this was an oversight from JB Hi Fi when they went early on the Black Friday discount to match Officeworks.

This offer expires midnight tonight (16th November) - get an additional $300 off Pixel 8/8 Pro with trade in.

https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/google-pixel-8-pro-5g-128…

JB offers $1 trade-in for the Galaxy Watch 42mm which unlocks the $300 credit offer. You will receive a $1 e-gift card and the $300 credit voucher which you can use to purchase the phone in store or online. Start trade in here: https://jbhifi.squaretradeup.com.au

Post purchasing the phone - Don't send the watch for trade in and cop the $1 fee for not trading in OR contact SquareTrade and tell them you do not want to proceed and they will cancel the trade-in.

Of course you can also trade in any phone/tablet and use the trade-in value of that stacked with the $300 bonus to reduce the price even more.

With the Black Friday price + trade in bonus = approximate 40% off RRP across the entire range.

    "If our Returns Centre does not receive your device(s) within 14 days, we will charge the pre-authorised hold on your account for the equal trade-in value offered for your order."

    How much pre-authorised hold is showing on your credit card account?

    Can someone please confirm if I can trade-in my P8 and get a $300 bonus to buy the P8 Pro?

    • CodeXD on 16/11/2023 - 16:37
      +1

      Yes you can.

      They accept Pixel 8 as trade in

      They are offering $690 for pixel 8 128gb, so with the $300 bonus you are getting $990 for it.

      You can even make a profit in JB gift cards if you were to trade it in to buy another Pixel 8.

      • bisaya on 16/11/2023 - 16:50

        thanks I emailed them,. My worry is I already got a bonus coupon for the pre-order last month. Not sure if that's related and they only give 1x $300 per person haha

      • bisaya on 16/11/2023 - 16:57

        Ok I see what you mean.

        $840 for trade-in of 256GB P8.
        Then $300 coupon.
        So $998-300 (coupon first)-voucher of $698.

        I have $142 left in jb GC

  • AlphaC on 16/11/2023 - 16:53

    Sorry for the noob question - can you do 2x trade-ins for $600 off?

    • bisaya on 16/11/2023 - 16:57

      nah the fine print at the bottom seems to suggest you can only use the coupon once on an item.

      Can't stack

      • AlphaC on 16/11/2023 - 17:02

        Thank you, you are right- I missed the Limit 1 coupon bit.

  • bisaya on 16/11/2023 - 17:14

    ah ffs, I can't do the trade-in as my previous trade-in (although received by them 3weeks ago) has not been completed.
    Argh what's taking them so long.

    • CodeXD on 16/11/2023 - 17:15

      Did they charge you/refund the authorisation charge?

        yeah the auth has already been removed ages ago.
        It's just they've sat on it for 3weeks.
        I've sent an email but assuming they are in sydney or melbourne, probably done for the day so gonna miss out on the deal argh

            @CodeXD: i'm not sure it's worth risking coz they use riskified. It's already created a new order number dated today but no status

            It will probably get flagged i'm trying to trade in for the same device with the same person but different email. Might cause more issues.

    • radishcake on 16/11/2023 - 22:44

  • Uncle Roger on 16/11/2023 - 17:58

    Bit the bullet!

    P8P 256GB original price: $1799
    Minus $401: $1398
    Minus $300 from this deal: $1098
    Price match + additional discount to make up for the better Officeworks trade in offer = $98: $1000
    90 min delivery: $10.99

    $1010.99

    Paid remaining using discounted gift cards, cost me approx $836.

    Have about $1100 Google Store credit that I'll use to offset this payment (i.e. buy and sell to someone else)
    My P6P 256GB should sell for around $400 hopefully.

    Not bad for a $1799 month old phone lol.

    Thanks OP!

    • regenade on 16/11/2023 - 18:04

      hey mate, how did the discount work. Did you get another gift card or voucher code for the $98? or did they just add to cart for you for a lower price?

      • Uncle Roger on 16/11/2023 - 18:44

        Added to cart at $1300

        • Mugsy on 16/11/2023 - 22:48

          ASUS ROG phone 7

          One of the few high end phones with a 3.5mm jack.

          The drawbacks for me are that the camera should be better at this price point and VoLTE and VoWiFi support is iffy.

          • ssfps on 17/11/2023 - 00:57

            @Mugsy:

            VoLTE and VoWiFi support is iffy.

            That pretty much makes it a non-starter given we're losing 3G on all carriers in the next 10 months…

            It does look like a decent bit of hardware in many respects though, at least compared to what else is out there.

    • RolandWaites on 16/11/2023 - 21:16
      +3

      Can't understand why there's any reason to not have a 3.5mm jack these days - except unless the phones are waterproof and that's going to compromise it. Sometimes wired headphones are just easier.

      • ssfps on 17/11/2023 - 01:00
        +1

        My last 2 phones have had 3.5mm jacks and are water proof enough for me - can use in rain/shower/drop in water and they've survived, the DAC too!

        I doubt it even saves the manufactures a few cents per unit, i'd bet it's almost entirely to force users to buy disposable bluetooth earbuds.

        Latest from Support. They said the promo expired at 10pm Nov 16. I can’t see how that was clear anywhere. Unless someone has the T&Cs (still should have been clearer if not shady)

        • BW296 on 17/11/2023 - 14:01

          Yeah, disappointing. Support told me the same and they can't issue a coupon.

          Fairly confident it wasn't mentioned anywhere that it was ending 10pm. Only said Nov 16, unless I missed something.

          Would have done it earlier in the day but had to run a few errands + decided really last minute that I was going to move from the P8 to the P8Pro.

    I went through all the trouble of getting the $300 coupon from squaretrade, ordered a p8p from jb website at 10pm.
    When I finally entered my payment details the website just hung and then a few minutes later I got an email saying
    "Unfortunately, your recent order of $998.00 has failed our verification process and been cancelled." (I think the website was having problems last night everything took ages to load.)
    So I went back to try again and the coupon has now been "used". Wtf!
    Chat was closed so I emailed support and said I hope jb will honour the coupon today.. But I don't like my chances

      • mike6969 on 17/11/2023 - 21:00

        Nope. I chatted to JB in the morning and they said it's with 'verification team' so I should wait for an email.
        Email arrived about 5pm which was just a copy/paste of the FAQ section 'Why was my order cancelled'.
        I emailed back saying, OK but what about my consumed coupon! No reply yet.
        I got back on chat again (30min waiting in queue), told them what happened, and they said, yeah you have to sort it out with this 'verification team' again.
        FFS!

        • bobokingdom on 17/11/2023 - 21:20

          In short, they don't want to sell the product to you as it failed some kind of verification? This is kinda crazy.

    • md333 on 19/11/2023 - 15:09

      Same here. No fuss at all.
      I'm still confident I did see changed conditions earlier. I suspect they realised it was not enforceable and had to withdraw it. Will be interesting to see if they can make it stick in future. It's not like anyone would actually bother trading a device in for just the $1 without the bonus.

    • mike6969 on 20/11/2023 - 07:31

      Same here.
      Also they said they don't keep credit card details.
      I asked about all the other details and ID scan, face video, etc. They said they have to keep that due to the pawnbrokers legal act. I thought that's strange considering the device was never sent to them.
      Just another juicy target for hackers. I think the government needs to get more serious about identity theft and change this law. Perhaps businesses could send the data to a super secure central holding system provided by the gov instead of holding it themselves. Or something along those lines

      thats a bit bs.
      I used to work at JB and we did this for people all the time (usually within 14 days of a purchase).

      Yes its up to the managers discretion, that store must just have a shitty manager.

        Agree, probably shitty manager. I got money back from my local JB when I got jbl soundbar 2 weeks ago. 4 days later was 20% off. Got it all back.
        Perhaps try online chat and see what they can do. Or perhaps able to just say you return it otherwise as not completely happy with it but would keep it for lower price? Not sure about return policy on phones.
