    I wonder if we got shafted for the deals by the AUD dropping after they set the pricing.

    	Local	AUD Equivalent
    US	499	787.12
    EU	549	980.33
    UK	499	1042.92
    CAD	679	767.89
    SGD	799	903.60

    We seem to be the cheapest in the world when you account for GST.

    Google Store is not even on Unidays/Student Beans any more.

    Pretty solid deal I feel. Given I paid $470ish for my 6a two years ago, $300 seems solid.

    However I have one extremely deep scratch in the screen which is my concern.

      $300 for a 6a is pretty sold for those that have them.

      But it is a shame how insanely targeted that offer is.

  I have nothing of value to trade, disappointed there are aren't any launch deals with gift cards, store credit, chromecast, anything really! Full-price it is it seems :(

  How does Pixel 9a compare with latest Samsungs? I'm considering a change.
