and surrender old broken PC/tablet ….

After seeing the HN $100 E-Waste offer here, I went to HN Auburn NSW this morning and got myself Galaxy Note 10.1 16Gb for $544 (online price). So they only charged me $444 after handling over my old/broke Optus ZTE.

http://www.harveynorman.com.au/samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-16gb…

Then I went to Westfield Parramatta NSW to get my Samsung $100 EFTPOS Gift card, after seeing this offer from Samsung last night:

http://www.samsung.com/au/promotions/index.html

Ie 16Gb +3G is $492.00

        • hewell on 09/02/2013 - 09:13

          lol you think ppl bought retina ipad because of its screen resolution?

        • Diogenes on 09/02/2013 - 10:17

          Oh please.

          The iPad - in all its incarnations - is successful because of faux-hipster iCult twattery: if Apple introduced 'iCircumcision' using a rusty razor blade with rounded corners and the "please dear God let everyone notice I have an iThing" logo, there would be queues at iStores on zero-day.

          Since the very first Mac they have made overpriced low-functionality eye candy, with a huge doses of "if you want to be thought of as smart you need to belong to our cult" douchery. See David Thorne's 26slashb masterpiece "Do you have a Macbook Pro?" - the images are hilarious.

          (Disclosure: we have an iPad - our first and only iThing. It's a good device, but it's not 'all that': its wifi is rubbish (can't see through doors), it's as slow as a wet week, and the 'app-based' approach managing files is laughable).

        • soob on 09/02/2013 - 11:06

          This is just not true. I now sometimes wear reading glasses and yet even without them I can tell you even on a 7" tablet I can clearly see a big improvement from a Nexus 7 1280×800 WXGA pixels (216 ppi) over my Nook 1024 X 600, (169 PPI). I admit I used to have the same view about small screens, but text sharpness is everything to someone with eyes that aren't as good as they once were, and I promise you the higher rez can be very worthwhile for some of us. I also expect one day you will need glasses too and agree with me ;)

        • [Deactivated] on 09/02/2013 - 19:09

          im going to dissect this a little bit

          "'app-based' approach managing files is laughable" - agreed, its their strategy to kerb piracy and buy through their itunes store. so i don't blame them for protecting their assets.

          "its wifi is rubbish (can't see through doors"
          i think your unit is a isolated case, my wifi seems to work brilliantly. 100 meters cross house through various walls.

          "it's as slow as a wet week,"
          android tablets, in all honesty, arent very "fast" either.

        I have been waiting for Nexus 10 33Gb for 3 months. Unfortunately with the lack of Aussie stock for Nexus 10 is causing me grief, and with this deal I just could not resist. I save myself almost $300 because of this (already have 32Gb card).

      Carindale QLD: 25 Feb – 10 March

      It is not Carindale's promotion period yet.

      • Pobman on 08/02/2013 - 11:50

        Yes and I just checked the HN deal T&C which ends before then… so no I dont want to drive there.

        Actually already decided against it, given I have an Xperia Z on pre-order it seems odd to buy a larger tablet with a lower resolution display.

      • mshanann on 08/02/2013 - 11:56

        Actually.. i think it should work…

        The Promotion commences at 9:00 am AEDT on 4 February 2013 and closes at 5:00 pm AEDT on 10 March 2013, or such earlier or later time and date as determined by the Promoter in its sole discretion by notice thereof on the Promoter's website (“Promotional Period”)

        It then states..

        The Promotion will operate at different shopping centres and at different dates and times throughout this period and claimants should refer to the Shopping Centre (defined below), Dates of Operation of the Shopping Centres (defined below) and Participating Retailers (defined below) before participating in the Promotion

        Westfield Carindale QLD
        25 February 2013 – 10 March 2013

        So maybe.. you can purchase now, and then claim the rebate in store at a later date..

        • Pobman on 08/02/2013 - 12:05

          Yes you can read it both ways… its not exactly 100% clear. They do specifically say purchase during the promotional period which as you point out is right now … the shopping center times are as you point out 'dates of operation' …

          I suspect even calling Samsung will not result in a 100% answer, as their people probably don't know either :)

          Good job I don't want this :)

        • eug on 08/02/2013 - 23:43

          It's definitely best to call Samsung to be sure, but it does sound like it should work as they define key points clearly in bold:

          • The "Promotional Period" is defined as 4th Feb to 10th March.
          • To claim a gift card, you must purchase a participating product during the "Promotional Period"

  • unity1 on 08/02/2013 - 11:47

    Online price is $586 and why the would they negotiate on price when they are already giving you $100 off?

  • chewbot on 08/02/2013 - 11:54

    So, if I was to buy it today, say from HN at carindale, can i then bring in the receipt to carindale between 25 Feb and 10 March. Because, the overall promotion period has started. Or do I have to wait til 25 Feb to purchase?

    It just seems counterproductive from a sales point of view, to encourage people to postpone their otherwise impulse buys. In the meantime something better could come up from a competitor.

    • maf101 on 08/02/2013 - 11:59

    • unity1 on 08/02/2013 - 12:03

      You won't be able to claim twice. Once you claim your giftcard they stamp your receipt with a big Samsung stamp and endorse the giftcard has been supplied.

      • edisonAU on 08/02/2013 - 12:08

        I can confirmed this as well.

        The staff at Samsung Studio at Westfield Parramatta said that is easily the best deal they have seen by far! They ask me about the details of the HN E-Waste deal themselves when they saw the docket!

        • seijai on 08/02/2013 - 12:16

          The Velantines promotion is only for participating products purchased at the George Street Store.

          So you wont be able to buy somewhere else and claim there

        • Bitsurfr on 08/02/2013 - 15:39

          Best deal by far? Maybe currently, but there was a better deal in November 2012 through The Good Guys.

          The deal was buy the Note 10.1 for $588 (although I ended up only paying $575 in store) then:
          - get a Breville Cafe Series Juicer for free(worth RRP$269, could easily be sold for say $130-150 since the cheapest online price at the time was $180)
          - then get the $100 giftcard from Samsung cashback promo
          - then use TGG 30 day price guarantee to get 110% of price difference back from any competitor within 30 days (I ended up showing them Bing Lee's price which at the time was $558, which meant they refunded around $18)

          So total out of pocket price was 575 - 150 - 100 - 18 = $307.

          The deal was posted here, although interest only appeared to be limited at the time for some reason.

  • mily on 08/02/2013 - 12:37

    Hang on, I just made an order online for picking up in Auburn store, will that be a valid purchase for claiming the giftcard from Samsung??

    • maf101 on 08/02/2013 - 12:42

      Never mind. I just re-read your question.

    • rack on 08/02/2013 - 12:50

      I don't think so. Online stores have a different store id. It might not be valid. You can try asking the store and see if they print you one of their invoices.

      • mily on 08/02/2013 - 13:13

        That's what I worried about. I called the 1300 number listed at the end of T&C, they have no idea about the eligibility. Then called HN Auburn, the girl gave me another 1300 number for Samsung promotion says they are in charge. Then Samsung person took my details and told me the store person should sort this out, if not then call him back again. And when I confirm the giftcard need to be collected from Parramatta, he wasn't sure at the first moment. Seems nobody can confirm this for me, any way, if I can't claim giftcard on this, at least there's one unit waiting for me in Auburn. I might see if I can return it and re-purchase.

        • snvl on 10/02/2013 - 23:07

          Please let us know if you were able to claim with the unit that you bought online

        • mily on 11/02/2013 - 20:11

          Yes, got it today after 1.5 hour driving. The girl at Samsung studio had no problem signing me up for the giftcard. The invoice however was re-issued by HN auburn store as they need to process the $100 cashback to my credit card, but it still clearly states the order was made in their online store and the order number is different from in-store items. Now cross fingers and hope the giftcard arrive in post by the end of this week.

        • edisonAU on 12/02/2013 - 08:12

          This is some dedication to drive from Wollongong to Auburn for the deal. How much money did you spend on petrol?!

        • mily on 12/02/2013 - 09:36

          About $30 I reckon.
          However on the way to Sydney, I found one and the only one Coles Express listing E10 at 134.9c, whilst all other petrol stations are around 151.9c yesterday. So I filled 54L of petrol at 17c~18c/L difference, that's some $9 unexpected savings.

  • [Deactivated] on 08/02/2013 - 12:42

      Yes because only apple ipads are premium products. Everything else is inferior and hence are worthless.

      That seems to be what you are implying.

      Have you even tried out the galaxy note 10.1? It is most impressive and not to mention its hardware cost might be higher because of the s-pen

      • CuteBirdy on 08/02/2013 - 14:00

        1 year from now, I bet the 2nd hand ipad will be worth far more than the 2nd hand Galaxy Note 10.1. I'm not an Apple fan, that's just the way it is, which means it is smarter to buy an ipad for resale value.

        • mily on 08/02/2013 - 14:13

          This is a tablet, not a car. Resale value isn't that important. Get whatever you need or like, not something you want to sell for half price as a 2nd hand device later.

      Just remove it before you give it in. That's what I did with my laptop - I removed the HD, memory, CD Rom, and the LCD display. I basically handed in a shell.

      • mily on 08/02/2013 - 15:05

        I have a shell of desktop that I'm going to hand in tomorrow, it has nothing but a power and a mainboard from Pentium II era. Unfortunately even this case misses it's cover, so it's very obvious hardly can be called a desktop computer, E-Waste will be a better word as per T&C.

        Anyway, I am going to try this first, in case it not works, I will bring my first laptop bought in 2004 with a celeron CPU, however I prefer not to as it's my first laptop and still under working condition.

      • ifonlyiwasyounger on 08/02/2013 - 15:21

          Usually a single screw locks it in place,

          You would need to remove the screw and push some place (usually indicated) to remove the hard disk caddy.

          You can then remove the harddisk from the caddy and replace the empty caddy or just don't bother.

          went to the Cannington store on Sunday and was told to talk to the guy in green T-Shirt "Tablet expert" (yes, there is a guy in green T-shirt HN uniform and is a tablet expert - learned something new everyday).

          he knows about the deal and we also went through the conditions and agreed we "probably" could buy now and claim later.

          The best thing I came up with is put a deposit and reserve one and pick it up on the 18th (last day of the recycle deal).

          there are heaps in stock, but I think, the deal would be very popular

          I went for the 16gb 3G version ($692 - their price was $724) just tell them the online store was cheaper and they'll match it. same with the 16gb wifi only ($544 vs $586)

        oh right.. so you can use it anywhere. i thought its only for samsung or something.

        regarding the giftcardpromotion it says "b) "purchase" means that full payment is made for the Participating Product;" if we buy the tablet at 444 will it still qualify?

        • regis169 on 08/02/2013 - 22:19

          Full payment. Not full price. So, yes it should be fine.

          Yes it means you have to pay in full not put down some deposit.

    Hmm, I'm considering driving 70kms or taking public transport from western suburb to get this deal, does it worth the effort?

    • edisonAU on 09/02/2013 - 04:38

      Where from though? This is oz bargain, so anything to save a few bucks is probably worth the effort

        St Albans, Vic, takes approx 70kms from west to east, sigh :~
