Merry Christmas everyone. I have come to bring anyone considering a Mac Mini M2 Pro some Christmas cheer with quite possibly the lowest price ever sold for this model.

0.95% surcharge on card & PayPal payments.

It is currently on sale at Digi Direct for $1214, however I was able to get Officeworks to price match bringing the total down to $1153.30, a total savings of $845.70 or 42%.

You could save more if you price match using discounted Officeworks cards.

You will want to move fast.

    Digidirect is showing as awaiting stock, better to price match elsewhere

    Hope this computer will help in doing the calculations properly.

  • ph81 on 21/12/2023 - 10:47

    What's the ETA on these from Digidirect?

    I'm surprised OW did a price beat on this as it's awaiting stock

    • RSmith on 21/12/2023 - 10:51
      +1

      Next year. Still waiting on advise from the supplier

    • Alias2000 on 21/12/2023 - 10:58

      It wasn't OOS from Digi Direct when I purchased at OW, though the salesperson did check that. I guess it will depend on the store.

  • madfish on 21/12/2023 - 10:47

    $1,175.06 on digidirect with code PREZZIE50, if you can't find stock in officeworks

    • Alias2000 on 21/12/2023 - 10:49

      There was no stock in store when I initially went in, however I understand most stores will receive stock tomorrow

      • madfish on 21/12/2023 - 10:51

        good to know! hopefully the digidirect price stays until tomorrow…

    • dangerdanger on 21/12/2023 - 11:04

      Thanks!!! Used this, let's see if they deliver.

      • Larsson on 21/12/2023 - 15:26

        I did too, I have been eyeing a Mac mini for a while now. I highly doubt they’ll actually honour this.

    • patadi on 21/12/2023 - 11:13

    OW price beat it total $1,153.30

  • littlesoldier on 21/12/2023 - 10:53

    Wow thats great price
    Bought the same machine earlier this year and have paid $500 more (via AOC store)

    Great machine and no regret in upgrading from the original Mac Mini M1 base model

    • LanceVance on 21/12/2023 - 14:22

      What was the biggest difference apart from RAM?

      • littlesoldier on 21/12/2023 - 14:24
        +1

        I mainly used for programming, in general building project is faster with M2 Pro, would say around 25% improvement
        but more memory is definitely a big difference

  • athulda on 21/12/2023 - 10:55

    Does OW price beat on awaiting stocks?

    • zeppy on 21/12/2023 - 10:58
      +2

      No, they don't. I've just tried and failed.

    • DrKB108 on 21/12/2023 - 10:58

      No they usually won't. I just tried so I'm surprised that OP was able to do so.

      • Alias2000 on 21/12/2023 - 11:01
        +2

        That's because I got them to price match when it was showing as stock available.

        • zeppy on 21/12/2023 - 11:04
          +2

          You are damn lucky. I hate you.

            @zeppy: Haha to be fair it was stressful couple of days as I first saw the price a couple of nights ago and had to wait for Officeworks to reopen the next day so I could ask them to price beat. Then I had to wait for shipment. I didn't sleep much.

            I was refreshing every half hour hoping the price or stock levels didn't change until I could get in to the store.

  • Antmid on 21/12/2023 - 10:57

    I just got told it’s a no go at OW as awaiting stock! Was going well until the supervisor came to verify! Doh!

      same at jb

  • skido on 21/12/2023 - 11:01

    I got told no because “digidirect sells refurbished products and we can’t price match any company that sells refurbished products” makes 0 sense rofl

    ozbargain is the reason officeworks probs drop the 10% price beat to 5%…

    • Larsson on 21/12/2023 - 15:28

      Hahaha… well they offer a service they know them well can be used this way. We are following their rules after all!

  • RSmith on 21/12/2023 - 11:02

    Officeworks scamsters outright declined to price beat.

    • chrism238 on 21/12/2023 - 11:23

      They're under no obligation to lose money.

      • PresidentClinton on 21/12/2023 - 11:27
        +17

        But they are under obligations to not falsely advertise

      • richadam on 21/12/2023 - 13:35

        Back in the day working for Dick Smith (when it was a physical store) we were told that it's not a sting on the company to price match as the supplier (apple, dell, etc.) would reimburse us the difference anyway. So the store never lost money on a price match.

        Could have been told a lie, or maybe thats why they went out of business…

    • snuke on 21/12/2023 - 12:54
      +1

      Why would they, it doesn't meet their clear conditions, this was never in stock digiDirect :

      Price Beat Guarantee
      What items does the 5% reduction apply to?
      Our guarantee applies to all identical products and services^ that are:

      Stocked at Officeworks
      In stock at our competitor; and
      Not excluded from the PBG (see below).

      Agree I always have issues at rutherford store over it so now I ring head office first and get them to sort it out

  • nubzy on 21/12/2023 - 11:02

    Very cheap!! $1164 on Digidirect with coupon but you need to pay by Zip to avoid $11 payment handling fee

    Already have MBA M1 which suits my needs but this is still tempting..

  • vongole83 on 21/12/2023 - 11:03
    +2

    That is an insane price - even without a price match - very rare to see the AOC price undercut - I just ordered one with the additional $50 off code. Been waiting to buy this for a while as my 2017 MBP bit the dust a few months ago.
    Thank you for sharing OP - made my Christmas!!!

    • Alias2000 on 21/12/2023 - 11:09

      Enjoy! I'm glad I was able to help some Ozbargainers out. I'm coming from a 2010 iMac i7 which hasn't failed yet but it is looking forward to retirement

    • FrugalNotStingy on 21/12/2023 - 11:27

      Be prepared for a long painful wait if you ordered from Digidirect. They are notorious for not fulfilling orders and take their sweet time in refunding. Speaking from experience (the latest is from their recent Black Friday sale).

      • Larsson on 21/12/2023 - 15:32

        Dang that sucks!so not only we are likely to not get this cancelled but we are probably going to wait forever to get this refunded?

    • wasdw246 on 22/12/2023 - 10:29

      Alot of people are getting their orders cancelled.
      Did they ruin your Christmas?

  • Aureus on 21/12/2023 - 11:06
    +2

    Don't order if you are not willing to potentially wait months. "Awaiting stock" for Digi Direct could mean they are waiting for the product to be produced in China and sent over. Also there support sucks.

  • qzcbmo on 21/12/2023 - 11:07

    Looking at this post and I feel sorry for Digidirect. I know quite a few people even choose not buying the item from Digidirect after failed to PM wiht OW rather than just ordering from Digidirect.
    Digidirect you really made your name here. @digidirect
    Hope you would ship those people above ordered from you.

    • zeppy on 21/12/2023 - 11:15
      +1

      This is a good marketing campaign for Digidirect. They probably won't have enough stock for all the interested Ozbargainers anyway. But most of us now know their name.

      • qzcbmo on 21/12/2023 - 11:17

        Thing is know their name in good or bad? As I said we all know they are notorious for taking orders then can't fulfill. So even we wanted to purchase and chose not to because we know they won't fulfill.
        Is this still a good marketing campaign?

      • Alias2000 on 21/12/2023 - 11:24

        I suspect they would have one or two in stock at that price knowing it would potentially get posted here and it will direct traffic to their site

        • qzcbmo on 21/12/2023 - 11:48
          +4

          Nah its a price error. It's back to 1899 now which means they wont ship any orders. Digidirect youve done it again.
          Lucky you OP got secured from OW.
          The reason we PM with OW isnt for the 5% off. It's just knowing its unreal price so only OW will sell if they are agree to price match. That's my whole point - digidirect made themselves even worst for doing this. It's NOT about driect traffic or marketing campain or whatever. Just a price error. lol

          • Jamie888 on 21/12/2023 - 15:41

            @qzcbmo: Is it a too complotist way to think it is a a guy a two working there, changing drastically the price, then quickly PM at OW to get their own.
            Finally put the price back to normal and day sorry to all the poor guys who ordered from them.
