Outright Sony Xperia Go with a Sony Action Cam $240 Free Delivery @ Optus Online Store

460

Sony Action Cam costs: $209 http://www.cambuy.com.au/sony-hdr-as15-full-hd-action-cam-hd…
Outright phone costs: $199 https://www.optus.com.au/shop/prepaidmobile/sony/xperia-go

So at the bottom the "Deals" page is the Sony Xperia Go + Action Cam Plan, but under that there was a "Buy Outright" button for $240 which adds the "Sony Xperia Go Bundle" to your cart. (If you hover your mouse over the picture of the phone and cam in your cart the "Sony Xperia Go Bundle" shows).

So to be sure i asked the live chat person to check. This is part of our conversation:
Optus : Can you please give me the link of that page.
You: https:wwww.optus.com.au/shop/Deals
You: the very bottom left is the Sony Xperia Go + Action Cam plan.
Optus : Yes, I am checking on this.
You: It says below the 'buy now' button "or pay $240 and get the phone outright with a 'buy outright' button
You: thanks
Optus : Thank you fur your patience.
You: I've added to my cart. It has a picture of the phone and cam and when you hover over the picture in the cart it says it a ''Sony Xperia Go Bundle"
Optus : I saw that option
Optus : You can proceed with the order.
Optus : I'll help you getting this outright bundle.
Optus : Are you on Shopping cart?
You: So it includes the Sony Action Cam
You:???
Optus : Yes, it has both Sony Xperia go handset + action cam
You: for $240
Optus : Yes.
You: thanks for your help

I don't know if the phone is locked to optus or any other info. Have fun

  • https:wwww.optus.comau/shop/Deals link doesn't work

    Edit: Going to the homepage then mobile tab then clicking on the online deals and offer works.

  • HTC One SV is cheap too $240, cheapest I can find on StaticIce is Kogan $289 and that's probably not even Australian stock!

  • The person I spoke to also confirmed you get both for $240 outright - they couldn't confirm if it was the HDRAS15S (cheaper model RRP $249) or HDRAS15K (RRP $329) as per your link to The Good Guys
    Differences here:
    http://www.sony.com.au/productcategory/cam-action-cam

    • Could even be the HDRAS10?

      • +1

        HDR AS15/B according to online chat sales rep

        • +1

          Ok, so it's the more basic option with just the camera and case - so it is NOT comparable to the Good Guys HDRAS15K kit (with 2 batteries, additional mounts, etc) in the link at $289, but it is a good deal nonetheless.

          BTW the model number they quoted is NOT the Australian Model number - Sony USA uses that model number but here it's known at HDRAS15S (S for "Starter" kit) according the website as per above

          EDIT:
          After a little more research, it seems the CURRENT lowest spec model in Australia has extra mounts (1 x Flat, 1 x Curved) compared to the HDRAS15/B and as per above is known as the HDRAS15S.
          http://www.sony.com.au/product/hdras15s

          The HDRAS15 (which probably has the "/B" added in the US model for "black") is now listed as discontinued and lacks the mounts but is otherwise identical. It's discontinued status probably explains inclusion in this deal :-)

        • Gotcha, thanks. Couldn't resist so I have purchased it.

        • +2

          Keep hold of your chat record just in case they send the HDR-AS10 ;-)

        • Done, ta.

        • +4

          Sorry I didn't go into to much detail about the cam. Just googled it and put the first link in the description. Spent too much time putting together the deal already. Hope it works out for all the buyers

        • +1

          I'm glad you put the deal up so no need to apologise :-)

          But maybe for the sake of clarity you should update the link because, based on the feedback from the rep who spoke to samlor above, the Good Guys product is a higher spec kit and linking to it might give people false expectations.

          Based on the rep conversation with samlor, this is the likely model;
          OUT-OF-STOCK - http://www.cambuy.com.au/sony-hdr-as15-full-hd-action-cam-hd…

          And if you want an IN-STOCK link this (which is actually a higher spec kit with additional mounts) is probably a closer match to what people will get and retails for $217;
          http://www.digidirect.com.au/video_cameras/sony/sony_hdr-as1…

          All that said, it is still a great deal because the camera + case are the main items many people would be looking to purchase…

  • +2

    so tempted to buy for the cam and sell the phone on ebay probably get $150 for the phone. so great cam for 90 bills

    • +1

      i thought the opposite. i want the phone free after the sale of the cam lol

      • Hahaha - maybe you could halves - they each seem to retail for about the same price :p

        • Thanks, seriously fchis wanna split?

        • I am looking for the mobile only. If you want the cam, we can split. I am in melb.

        • Well I'm in Sydney but happy to consider it, message me 2 discuss/arrange, if U can't do it locally, thanks.

  • +2

    WOW nice find OP!

  • +2

    Very good deal, new sony cam is $360 for those wondering why they're trying to sell these quickly. http://www.videopro.com.au/p-6937-sony-hdras30vpk-action-cam…

  • seems can't add to shopping cart anymore

  • Yeah. I got one. Asked the chat if its phone + cam, they said yes.. now looking back at the website… says pay $240 and get the PHONE outright… although checkout is still the bundle…

  • +1

    Does anyone know if the phone will be locked to the Optus network? Thanks!

    • +2

      Just asked them on LiveChat, apparently it is unlocked if purchased outright.

  • Ordered one - hope its worth it, anyone want to buy a phone?

    • I am interested in just the phone.

      • Let me know how much you are willing to pay.

        • 50/50?

        • Anyone beat $120 for the phone, I am in Melbourne.

  • Great find OP! I ordered two! Plan to give one phone and one cam as gift.

    Live chat told me it will be HDRAS30 although I doubt that. I am more or less expecting HDRAS15. Still very happy with this.

    • I wonder where they got that from. Live chat told me it was the AS15.

  • +1

    The cheapest price I can find this sony action cam for on static ice is $217. So if I sell the phone on ebay for $150 that means I'm getting the action cam for $90 making it a saving of $127. THANKS OP!

    • +1

      Thanks for the + vote ;)

      • +1

        sorry was to busy snagging deal. you've now been +'d.

  • As per my online conversation with a rep they said that the model is HDRAS30V/B.

  • Is that the new one thats just been released? Seems to much to hope for! :)

    • Just got onto another rep and said it was the older AS15. Make up your mind Optus!

  • I have talked to 2 online reps. One told me AS30 the other told me AS15. Not sure where they are pulling the information from to have conflicting reports??

  • I want the cam. Anyone want the phone? Message me if you are in Canberra.

  • Watch out. Messenger Post which then delivers this can go and lose the stuff :(

  • The rep i spoke to knew nothing about the camera, couldn't quote me shit, I don't blame them though poor support from Optus, I will find out when I get it I suppose…

  • Anyone received a confirmation email about the order from Optus?

  • Yep, I did, within minutes of submitting purchase order.

  • I also received a confirmation email straight away.

  • I got an sms from Optus, getting my order tomorrow.

    • +2

      let us know what model cam it is.

  • Just received my package HDR-AS15

  • Just received my package HDR-AS15 as well!

  • Man, was the package light! Felt for sure like they'd not put in the action cam - but they had.

  • For those that recieved the action cam today, what accessories came with it?

    • +1

      waterproof case
      attachment buckle
      flat adhesive mount
      curved adhesive mount

  • Mine is due tomorrow as well. Disappointed that it won't be an HDR-AS30 with GPS, but never really expected it to be, given the price. I'm hoping that the AS15 comes with the mounts for a bicycle or a helmet…any gen on this?

  • I want just the camera, and I am in Sydney. student without car so only cbd or north shore unfortunately :(
    50/50 anyone?

  • I can take the phone from you, can pickup from Sydney

  • Anyone else interested in the phone?
    I only want the camera, in Sydney BTW…

  • Anyone want the phone, seems unlocked, works with a Telstra Sim despite coming from Optus, i am in Melbourne.

  • Mine just arrived today. If anyone in Brisbane wants the phone for $120, let me know!

  • Mine arrived today. The phone looks very sleek and is unlocked (tested my Boost/Telstra SIM in it). Android 4.0.4 is preinstalled (along with some Optus crapware). I'm happy to part with the phone for $120, if anyone in the Ferntree Gully/Knoxfield area is interested in picking it up in the next day or so.
    I haven't really gone through the entire operation of the camera yet. It's a great price, but rather big for bicycle helmet use when it's in the waterproof case (it's a lot taller than a Contour cam, for example). The curved adhesive mount can go on top of a helmet, but I think I'll buy the ~$40 handlebar mount.

  • Anyone in Sydney want to sell the phone, please PM please, as I didn't hear anything from 5K

  • Check your PM kk128

  • Just out of curiosity, although it may well be unlocked, why would you buy this phone to use on Telstra / Vodafone network

  • If anyone wants the whole package let me know otherwise i will just return it back to optus and get a full refund.

    changed my mind.

  • If anyone would like to sell the phone in Sydney, please contact me. Thanks!

  • Just sold the phone for $140 in the Sydney CBD and now to try out the camera. Thanks for sharing all your input. Have a good weekend, everyone.

  • I just sold the phone so have the camera left.

    If anyone in Sydney is interested in the camera then feel free to private message me.

    • sold it last night.

  • -3

    In Sydney. Willing to buy the action camera for $100. Anyone?

  • Thanks op.
    Ordered one.

  • Thanks Op, ordered one too. Now to sell the phone.. :-)

    (Anyone in ACT wants a cheap phone, let me know)

  • Anyone in Melbourne wants the cam for $120? :)

  • -1

    If anybody wants to offload a camera for. $100 plus postage please pm me. Cheers.

  • I spoke to a rep on the Optus site today and he reckoned the Camera was the AS10. Bit concerned about buying the bundle and getting the lower model now :(

    • If you read through the comments you'll notice we've been through it before. The reps probably don't have them on hand so are just guessing. None of us have received the AS10, we've all received the AS15.

      • Yeah, I did see that. Was concerned they have a mix of AS10 and 15 cams. Might just take the punt. Thanks!

  • If anyone in Melb is looking to offload the cam at a reasonable price, send me a PM :)

  • Im happy to buy the cam if someone doesn't want it :)

  • Same here - if someone is looking to sell the camera for a reasonable price, drop me a PM.

  • I ordered and it never arrived. Order cancelled for no apparent reason???

  • I ordered one on Monday and got it Tuesday

  • Are these Wi-Fi model? Thanks in advance.

    • Yes it is. Surely you would have scrolled up a bit? :)

  • I got this a few weeks ago and I love it.

  • ordered 2 weeks ago ,
    no show ..
    called optus , system error .. but took my money..

    have to re-order again..

    just to let you guys know .. the deal is still there..

  • anyone in Melbourne would like my phone for $140?

    Please message me. Thanks

    • Do you still have the phone?

      • Yes. In the Box never been opened. Would you like to buy it?

        • Im also interested,,do you still have it?

        • Yes it is still available. Thank you.
