AU STOCK
USUALLY SHIPS WITHIN 2-3 days
$500 off 256gb ($1649) and 512gb ($1849)
$600 off 1TB ($2149)
What was their reason(s) for not price matching?
Ahh, so, having had a look, if you get the address up in google maps, it comes up with a furniture store? And there's not enough info to verify the store's legitimacy, I think it's one of those cases of "too good to be true," unfortunately!
Lol…their business address comes up as "No Limits Removalists" on Google search.
Hi There,
Double story warehouse , shared space
Imagine being the one guy who pays full retail price for one of these.
Well, corporates/government do because no one cares about what's paid.
Also of the suppliers' interest to inflate the advertised cost.
Thats exactly how they spend our money
Rep, are they AU stock? Ta
AU Stock could mean it is in stock locally unless OP wants to clear up if this is Australian model with Australian warranty.
Australian model with Australian warranty
$1459 + 30 non-trade in fee for the same on EPP/GOV/EDU with BOOST100 applied
Edu price is $1,719.20. How do you get to $1,459. Boost100 only seems to be applied if using trade-in.
do you have the 256gb selected? its just a $1 trade in + BOOST100
Officeworks wil price beat this FYI, huge discount
Because they don't have an inflated RRP.
By 5% right? So $1566 for the 256GB version?
Yep
Nice home business. Or they actually create this website so people can go PM at OW?!
Online business, check ebay reviews and previous selling all happy.
Best is to PM at JB Hi-fi using the Telstra deal.
JB wouldn't price match it
Don't think it's fair to be using price matching against these smaller retailers. Let's support local businesses.
I wouldn't bother price matching at OW if that's what I am paying. Would rather spend with a small shop.
BUT, if JB price matches and add the Telstra deal, then, I will go JB. Probably below JB's cost (actual cost included rebate from Samsung, not the BS "cost" that the salesperson can see on their screen) for the device.
Except I don't trust these home run businesses with warranty tho
They're not an authorised Samsung reseller.
Yeh hence for same price why wouldn't I price match at reputable brick mortar store? If it's like $50 then yeh I'd risk it supporting local small business but a $1k plus purchase… Nah
@Jaduqimon: absolutely, and its not like you are supporting the whole chain of employees that make a locals store products and locally sourced materials. You are just essentially buying a dropshipped product with an inflated margin. If everyone had a mindset like duece I am about to start a dropshipping business
This or a OnePlus 13?
assuming competitive pricing - this, better software and longer support. plus you get a pen
I'm actually leaning towards the Oppo X8 Pro over the 25 Ultra. I used to be a real Samsung fanboy, but my last couple phones have been very disappointing in terms of reliability and camera.
I should have gotten it when it was 1699 with the free tablet via redemption… There is the x8 ultra coming soon so maybe a price drop on the pro
Yeah same, but wasn't in the market for a phone at that stage, and Oppo only just recently came onto my radar. I think the Ultra may not release in Oz, but hopefully we'll see a discount or sale on the X8 Pro for other reasons.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra's S Pen does not have Bluetooth capabilities, unlike the previous gen.
Feature that I never used after I was so excited to test it
Had the S23U for 2 years, and just realised i could take selfies with the S Pen. At least i found out, albeit a little late
Holy crap, I didn't even know that! And I've had my S23U ever since launch. I've been setting a timer and running :(
Thanks for the info!
This looks sus af
This the best deal right now? My phone just broke and I missed the preorder deals :(
Picked one up via Officeworks price beat over the phone
went in store and they said the website is flagged :/
sorry how did you organize price beat over the phone? if successful, do they then asked for your name and pickup date? or do they secure payment over the phone?
Called the price beat line (1300 633 423)
Provided website URL and price
They were hesitant (claimed it wasn't AU stock and didn't have AU warranty)
I insisted it was, they put me on-hold - checked with manager
Agreed to go ahead
Asked for details (I have an account) pay over the phone with CC.
I chose a nearby store to pickup from.
I gave it a go, but got rejected :(
Said sone of my mates had got it and they asked me what's the order number? meh
I was insisting as well but didn't work w me today. You were lucky!
Hi mate, are you able to PM me your order #? They're willing to price match but only if there was any OW order # that had previously PB the price.
do you allow pick up?
For those wondering, JB wouldnt price match
