Wonder if we'll see lower?…

Won't JB price match?
It's sold out so probably not.
The JB sale is 25% off TCL TVs of 65” or larger, sold by JB (non marketplace), but that discount doesn’t seem to be reflected on the JB site.
What am I missing?
e.g. https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/tcl-85-c855-4k-uhd-premiu…
Ticket price $3140 so why isn’t the price displayed $2355 now?
I'll be straight onto live chat when it opens and will be pushing for it to be that price
Good point, the 75” should be $1,908 as the ticket price is $2,545
If the 25% is genuine, it would bring the 98” C855 down to $4458.75. That’s a LOT of TV for the money.
except minimal stock
looks like it's 'selected TV's' although there is no mention of it on the ad.
Definitely get JB on chat or visit a store if you’re looking for a new TV as the email makes no mention of specific models.
$59 shipping sheesh. Wonder if this will fit in the boot of an X3
FYI, we collected a 65 inch TCL last year and it just fit in our MUX with the seats folded down. I reckon you'd struggle in an X3.
Disappointingly helpful, thanks!
Why is this 855 series mini-LED TV only has 3 star energy rating, while the cheaper 755 series mini-LED TV has 5 star rating?
Because it uses more energy.
Primarily because it’s a considerably brighter TV. Similarly to why my old C1 OLED had about 450w power draw and new C4 version has ~700ish. Improvements in brightness reflect increased power.
I think the new batch of 855 has arrived in AU. It was planned in early Feb.
What's the difference between the old and new?
Its fresh out of the oven
The same C855, but very low stock in AU from December, stores have to wait for the new containers.
Betta electrical was expecting them late February. But they had like 25x 85” c855 for all of NSW so yeah. Obviously some larger retailers might get more but don’t expect too much stock.
Also if the info provided was correct the new models actually looked worse for more money. On paper at least less dimming zones etc.
edit: when I say new models I mean the actual new models not just new deliveries of c855.
is it worth waiting for the 2025 spec TV's, or just go with the one?
$2771 for the 85" C855 looks like a very decent price,
Isn't it $2355? I'm gonna jump on this now
They have updated the list pricing to reflect tbe 25% now
It's been jacked up hasn't it
Has anyone got the 855 working well for sports ?
Mine is horrible, sport setting does fk all
Ohhh no
Was going to get this TV. But i want a tv good for sports. Kayo at 4K
The link you shared just talks about how to update the TV, but there's nothing I could find in the thread about whether this actually improves it for sports.
Ditto, I read quite a bit of that thread and didn't find anything related to sports. There are the mentions of people running unofficial updates, then equal problems with those updates
$2355 honoured for the 85" over live chat
Well done…
I got them to do the 75” for $1908
Ah they have now ipdated the RRP pricing..
Yep, updated the ticket prices. Gonna swerve this one if it's sht for sport, continue to wait for a decent qd-oled price
you could update the software manually via USB, rather than waiting the official one.
The online rep acknowledged the error and still honored the the price $2,355. However when I tried to pay it says delivery is not available. I guess I need to get back to the support again.
Ok, here's the go, I went into store and someone stuffed up big time.
Website is wrong, and it should be fixed by midday. Staff are aware and honouring 25% off the website tickets price.
85" wouldn't fit for me due to the stand locations and had none in stock anyway so went with the 75" for $1909 and $60 delivered tomorrow.
They just had a shipment in and have 20 75" in stock at Noarlunga S.A
Edit: just noticed they updated ticket pricing. Damn.
Do you know what the stand location sizings for the 85" are? Not entirely sure if it will fit on my existing tv unit!
From memory because I measured in store, it was 1.4m from stand to stand
If they had just put a big centre stand in the middle like everyone else
Thanks! Damn that's quite deep, might have to go for 75"
For some reason they aren't delivering the 85" in melbourne?
Same here. If I choose C&C I can only see stores in NSW.
Just called, its all gone for 85" in VIC and only choice is 75"
Jump onto live chat to honour the $1908 old ticket pricing
This deals makes me happy i grabbed the 85 inch c855 for $2100 in October. This is still a lot of tv for a pretty good price though and is probably the last batch of them.
How is this for watching sports? Only thing I use TV for is sports.
Same reason I want a new tv too. I was eyeing this for awhile because of the great reviews but noticed a bit of blurring during motion in store
I find it nice for AFL and the AO.
Need to tweak settings tho: https://www.avforums.com/threads/tcl-c855-4k-qled-mini-led-t…
Do you even read the thread…?
Live chat honoured the 25% promotion for the old ticket price. I grabbed the C755 85" TV for $1590 + Delivery.
If you go on live chat and get Ben W try get someone else as he didn't honour the 25% off original ticket price
Thanks a ton man! Couldn't get live chat to honour the price. Ordered through your link.
You're welcome. Enjoy!
Can you do more? Keen
I also have a link if needed, expires midnight for $2355. I couldn’t end up using it as no delivery options for me.
can you send it to me please?
Can anyone post a receipt/offer of the 75 @ $1908? I’ve been through 2 different live chat operators already who won’t budge of price even after mentioning price error.
I dont think it works anymore
Annoying because I was originally speaking to them this morning when the ticketed price was $2545 and they still wouldn’t honour. Best I could get was $20 off. How are others getting it for $1908, is there a policy I need to link or just purely luck of the draw?
Considering picking up the 65" for another room. Got the LG C4 in recent weeks and loving it but don't think I need to splurge on another since it won't be getting as much use.
Really don't want to go into the store to purchase this one if I can avoid it but since I purchased that C4 from JB a few weeks back every single purchase I try and make via JB Hi Fi I get an order cancelled email because it's "failed verification" I responded to the email that they tell me to get in touch with and the person that responds is just brutal, not offering me any reason why it failed only putting in bold:
We recommend purchasing directly in store for future purchases. Regrettably we have no way to bypass this.
Anyone else had similar? I read a few threads regarding multiple Perks accounts, we have two in this house so I don't think it's that.
Ive got them to honor the 98" at $4458. Just working out if its worth holding for the 2025 models?
Anyone know what the bump in quality etc is?
Only the TCL 6mk had been reviewed for 2025. It's their budget TV, lowest model. Great colour and blooming control. Just not very bright.
There's two models above the 6mk, reviews coming in a few weeks. 7mk and 8mk.
I'd Get this deal on the 98 if you can. But if you miss out you'll get a great 2025 tv if you're happy to wait.
Found a comparison video.
Ding ding ding!
