Might be old model from 2023 but it's cracking value for Sammie 55" OLED.
After clicking on link in Samsung Black Friday sale email, added code TGIBF1 to bring price down to $749
I then clicked on Trade in Offer to get extra $100 off
NOTE: this product cannot be delivered to a number of postcodes in NSW, QLD, VIC and WA (as well as all of TAS and NT).
I wonder if the order number showing in the SmartThings app gives us an idea of how many orders were placed. Mine starts with 123394XXXX
highly likely it's random
They’re (profanity) with you now lol
Hopefully others are in a similar boat
All aboard the good ship, 'Disappointment'
this is the best part of the ride - still a small glimmer of hope among a sea of nihilistic anticipation.
I wonder if its possible to create a poll to see how many people got confirmation emails just so we can see if the number of orders are realistic enough to be fulfilled by Samsung
I think it's possible. I believe in you.
Ok i created a poll, it's in the forums section under electrical and electronics
I received my confirmation email and it's awaiting dispatch. I chose the 22nd November delivery date.
Nicee, here's hoping it actually gets delivered. I chose the earliest date possible so that they'd have less time on their hands if they wanted to cancel lol
I will need to wait for last mile partner to call me to organize delivery time. …..
is there any limit for using that code? once per account? i found some items are still available, but the code says reaches limit.
One per account.
thanks, that makes sense. i guess TGIBF2 will be tomorrow's code. lol
Next Friday's
You are correct - email came out this morning for TGIBF2 :)
However, we're still overall not sure if it will apply a massive discount to any of the sale items again or if this was a one-time promotion!
Seems out of stock now?
Last time i checked in day time, deal said its out of stock but apparently people were able to order again after that?
yeah, I ordered one after the post said OOS and had 140 upvotes, it kept coming and going
Yes, it happened about 3 or 4 times. My guess is they set a soft-limit of say 25 or 50 units, before re-releasing another 25-50, to avoid over-selling and potentially cancelling hundreds or thousands of orders.
For those that received the code, where did it come from? Email subscription?
email promotions around 11.10
Thanks
just be sure come back here next friday, you will see the code with a deal. it should be TGIBF2, that's my wild guess.
I got the order confirmed and waiting for dispatch, but i felt like cancelling it as I don't really need an extra tv, buy now and worry later…
I reckon keep it and resell it to some other lucky chap for the same or higher price. Hell if you were in Syd i'd buy another off you haha
Marketplace is your friend.depend on what's your current tv, sell one of them will be fine.
Thx, guess i will see if the order actually get delivered first
If you are in Melbourne, I am happy to grab it.
If you are in Sydney, I am also happy to grab it.
turns out the mixup is why it was so cheap. it was meant to be 40% off the original price+ trade in
Instead they discounted 40% then applied 40% discount + trade in
Thank god muzeeb is bad at maths
I'll pass on the message
whats the muzeeb joke
Muzeeb was a dell customer service representative who allowed incorrectly priced gaming monitors to be delivered. Legend has it that he graced the corridors of ozbargain for a while.
Normal price $2,999
40% off ($2,999) $1,799
40% off ($1,799) $1,079
Buy price $794
Still doesn't make sense

Any references or it's your favorite setting. No offense, thanks for sharing.
Thanks. Will help a lot people when Samsung actually honored the deal. Lol
No one here is getting a TV lol, waste of information.
I've purchased S23 ultra and fold 5 previously with price errors and they've all been honoured.
It would come down to stock. Samsung will honour the price but they need to have these many TVs.
Last year my soundbar order was cancelled due to stock issues. With phones it's much easier, stock is much higher
@abs898: I made a poll to see how many orders have been confirmed and whether samsung can fulfill them
I managed to order one after the post said OOS and got a confirmation email an hour after I placed it so its looking good so far
If I get this I have a good TCL tv for sale for $500 haha
Ditto c635 😂
TCL is ewaste
Surely 55" is only big enough for a bedroom or walk in wardrobe thesedays? This was my main reason for not buying.
that, and the fact the deal was long expired before you logged in?
Nope bought 98" before this deal
is it in your wardrobe, in your opulent mansion abode?
I bought 3 for each of my bedroom. Great deal.
Haha all these salty ppl who missed out on the deal who is wishing it's cancelled
I’d be sad but I’d never wish for others to be cancelled. I missed out on so many deals in the past and made this one now so fingers crossed
Thanks bought 3. Oh wait wrong deal I meant to post this in the potato peeler deal.
I very much doubt it will be cancelled now when the status is awaiting dispatch.
Really gutted having missed three times once in the checkout after each re-stock.
If anyone loaded up and doesn't have any more space for one in Adelaide, please send me a DM. I'll throw in a bit of extra for your legwork.
No-one has a despatch notice. Cancellation still probable
Got a confirmation email and they won’t dispatch on weekend.
Melbourne metro and the soonest delivery date I could select was Wednesday the 20th so should receive something Monday
nice, the one day i dont check this darn site i miss out on potentially the best deal of the year awards
Technically it's not a deal yet. If nobody gets it, you are not missing anything.
Don't feel so bad: I was checking OzB all day about every hour… except for the hour this was posted!
did anyone's order actually go through and finalize? i feel bad for OP who probably ordered too, if he kept the secret he might have his delivered
God sees everything
Payment has now disappeared from my account. Not looking good :/
Mine is still there.
And status still awaiting dispatch.
When the cancel tab disappears, means that order has been procesed by logistics partner
Its disappeared from my pending payments but there's still a $750 difference between the current and available balance.
It’s normal for payments to temporarily disappear and reappear. Have it all the time it doesn’t mean it’s cancelled. If it’s a credit card you can always tell it’s not removed because the available balance still has that balance included. Should reappear within a few days.
ahhh ok thats reassuring!
Mine is awaiting dispatch as well (which was only updated this morning). Not counting chickens until they hatch, but it's looking good!
where do you see this. still nothing under my orders
Awaiting dispatch with trade up and delivery date on 20th Nov to Victoria. Fingers crossed.
Depends if orders get transferred to logistics on sunday evening for delivery on Monday
Me too, chose delivery for the 20th. Let’s see.
Looks like their warehouse is in Melbourne or vic somewhere.
No, it's in NSW.
Ok, I never order anything from Samsung directly. Good to know.
Devastating knowing I missed out on this 😅
Where is your ozbargain spirit. Lol
There is always a price error on the way.
Number one rule on Oz bargain. Buy now. Think later
Hopefully it's a well-oiled automated shipping system and a whole bunch gets sent out before someone @ Samsung stops it on Monday.
At least some people may get it! Fingers crossed!
Mine is scheduled for Wednesday delivery so I’d assume they dispatch well in advance as I am in SA and the warehouse seems to be in NSW. Would have to be sent out Sunday latest Monday to make it to the guaranteed delivery date. Let’s see
It may turn into the following deal where Samsung was unable to fulfil lot of orders but they provided a voucher for an alternative washing/dryer combo in white.

Yep my bet is on this exact thing happening
just got this in my promotions you better not rip it away from me now samsung.
To experience the endless entertainment possibilities of your Samsung TV, you must first set it up. It’s super easy. Simply click the link below to get started.
Doesn't seem to be a price error since their home page is advertising "Save $1,050 off 55" S90C OLED TV" which would be $1,799 - $1,050 = $749.
https://imgur.com/a/RSGxt3Z
It’s calculated field based on the Price/Discount. If it were 0$ it would show save $1799 dude.
Hmmmm.. why would it be $1,050 though? Because the actual 'black friday' promotion was $2,999 down to $1,799 (which is a $1,200 difference).
The further "secret" code brought it down an additional $1,050.
OH that's a good sign right? Hope increases.
How is it $1,799? The advertised price was $2,999. In any event, Samsung don’t know their ass from their elbows so it’s very likely this will be honoured.
The 'black friday flash sale' discounted price was $1,799.
Then, using the TGIBF1 code, the price further decreased by $1,050 to $749.
Ah huh, thanks for clarifying.
So 24 hrs later and no one knows if this will be honoured yet? Has anyone bother to call up / chat to anyone at Samsung to confirm? Still long shot any TV get shipped.
A sales rep did assist me with the purchase, since I had to do some edits to my shipping address - and they didn't raise any red flags.
Of course, they would have nothing to do with the back end of that (pricing, discounts, etc), so it's all a bit up in the air still until next week.
Has anyone bother to call up / chat to anyone at Samsung to confirm?
Feel free to show some initiatives
Confirmation email received and just got a notification in my smart things app congratulating me on my purchase. Hopefully others are in a similar boat.
