expired Some Logitech Gear - 100% Cashback Via Online Redemption - Starts 1 Feb 2011
This was posted 2 years 4 months 21 days ago, and might be an out-dated deal
Edited by foundit 29/01/2011 - 23:06
Some Logitech Mice, Keyboards, Webcams, Headsets and Cooling Pads are able to claim 100% cashback from Feb 1
see the website here
http://www.logitechcashback.com.au
still not a bad deal - given that after cashback, you essentially get the product for free
The stickers are on ALL the products at Dick Smith Arndale - and on the sticker it says, "Purchase me and receive 100% cashback". The upload is a photo of the sticker itself. I got excited as I thought I could pick up a logitech steering wheel with the cash back, but upon upon further investigation, I can see that only a limited number of products are included in this deal.
Only applies to these old models but 5 per household is not bad.
M100 wired mouse
M215 wireless mouse
K200 keyboard
C200/C210 web cam
Clearchat style headset
MK250/MK260 wireless combo
N100/N120 cooling pad
(Thanks POWERevolution)
mod more from PowerRevolution (Thanks)
- Valid between 01.02.11 & 28.02.11 OR until AUD$300,000 in online cash back funds are exhausted, whichever occurs 1st.
- Receipt(s) must be received by mail within 14 calendar days of online claim.
- Limit of 5 claims per household.
- Aust residents only.
- Business, education, hospitals, fundraisers & similar organisations, some lay-bys & internet purchases are ineligible.

As at 30/01/2011 midnight, this deal has 2246 click throughs. Assuming others out there know about the deal, consider what happens if 3000 people have made purchases
$300,000 is available for the cashback. If there are just 3,000 customers, so far, who know about the deal, that's about $100 each.
So, just a heads up there is a chance you won't get a cashback

POWERevolution on 29/01/2011 - 02:33 ¶BTW can't claim from LTS as online purchases are ineligible.
Which of the products above are good?
And where to get the cheapest so we're all get more from CB?
it says some internet purchases are ineligible - maybe Logitechshop is included?
Edit : maybe I've read it wrong. I assumed it meant some lay buys and some Internet purchases ineligible. Upon reading it again, it may mean some lay buys and all Internet purchases are ineligible. Poorly worded I think
+2 votesThanks for the posting. Only catch is that it is limited to the first $300K. So say the average cashback deal is $50 thats 600 (Should be 6000) only who will get the deal, and each person can claim up to 5 items, So I'll predict given the popularity of this you'll have Buckley's chance of getting any money back
Eg 250 VOTES for the Top Gear magazine and probably a lot more visitors and non voters give you some idea of how popular this may be. And while you can by now, your claim can only be on Feb 1st. So good luck at getting on at 12.01am.
Now if you are able to return the item if you dont win, that might be the go, unless the sticker has a unique code that you have to remove and DS wont take it back if that is (I would guess thats unlikely).
I dont think Logitech have thought this out very well. Being so smart ($300K) with the limit, will probably mean a lot of returns to store
EDIT - oops maths at 3 am not the best thing to do. The 6000 as indicated below by others smarter, is the go

+2 votesfootywiz11 on 29/01/2011 - 02:58 ¶and checking the OW website, the most expensive item out of the list is about $35 so there is a fair chance that you would be able to get cashback

Good opportunity for retailers NOT to have competitive pricing. People shouldn't care too much about the price if they get 100% cashback. The more the retailer charges, the more pure profit they can make.
Obviously people don't want to be without too much cash for too long though, and there is the increased risk of losing more cash if you miss out on the cashback.
Interesting deal nonetheless.
I came up with 6000 too ;)

porsche26c on 29/01/2011 - 06:33 ¶hey can we buy it say today and then claim it 1st thing on the 1st of feb or do we need to purchase it between those dates?
anyone at logitech can confirm this
While looking up the Clearchat, the first review at http://www.logitech.com/en-au/webcam-communications/internet...
"I bought these today and they are terrific. One of the marketing messages on the front was 100% cashback and to go to a website to log in details www.logitechcashback.com.au and it doesnt exist!"
By Logitech Australia, Logitech Australia, 28 January 2011</b>
Hi Robbo, the Cashback Promotion kicks off February 1st, so just hold onto your receipt and you'll be able to log in and claim then.EDIT: Conflicts with T&C though, it seems.

Just be careful. Reading the terms cashback only applies to purchases DURING promotional period which starts 1/2/11, so don't buy until Tuesday.
Also they said they will have a countdown clock showing how much of $300K is still claimable.
6.To be eligible to lodge a claim in the Promotion, individuals must, during the Promotional Period, purchase any of the participating Logitech products (as specified below) from any participating store in Australia ("Participating Product") and follow the claim procedures set out in clause 7 and 8 below.

+1 voteI have seen many companies in US doing this but not much here in oz ..they usually clear off their slow moving stocks by adding the mail in rebates to get more shelf space..bestbuy and circuit city have them..i once got my printer in 100% mail in rebate from HP..

Great deal btw!
+2 votesAsk yourself would you be happy with the item at the price you pay to avoid the inevitable disappointment for some when the cash runs out. There's clearly going to be a competitive component to this. Given Logitech applied the stickers before shipment they know they value of the product in the stores (reward) vs the $300k (bait) ;-)

It doesn't mention anything about only having to buy from DSE… so I assume not - the OP just mentioned he saw it at DSE.
To be safe - no harm in checking out OW / Harveys prior to the sale (eg. Monday) as Im sure they'll have the stickers out anyhow (just like DSE @ Arndale)

+1 voteCan we use dick smiths collect in store method and maybe reserve and collect on he 1st. Anyone done this before. What dates gets put on the invoice. When u reserve the item or when u pick up.
edit: follow their facebook page and they have answered a few questions but not clearly.

wow i just realized something
EDUCATION TAX REFUND+100% CASHBACK = Profit for those with kids/students
because you get the 100% cashback off logitech and you also get 50% rebate(if you haven't gone over limit)
for all items i would say they are educational
mouse, keyboard, cooling pad(unsure), headset, webcam(unsure)
+3 votesbut your cost is $0. if you are claiming a tax rebate you are fudging your tax.
another analogy would be buying a product, returning it for a refund and then claiming a tax rebate for your original purchase. hell, why not just skip the purchasing bit all together and just declare that you have bought $1000 of stuff on your tax return.


I am sure many people do this anyway. Taking the risk that an audit will pass them by.
i am surprised that the ATO doesnt audit all those with educational claims.
Its just like the ATO is setting up the "people" for a sting some time down the track.
personally i would prefer centrelink to get all the welfare cheats, as my tax dollars are being wasted on false payments and claims.

michaelliberty on 29/01/2011 - 11:00 ¶The MK260 wireless combo looks the best. Anyone know who sells it. I can't find it on the OW/DSE or HN sites.
Chris McMahon on 29/01/2011 - 13:23 ¶I'm been looking for this too. I don't think anyone has any in stock.

No you cant claim it in the shop. You need to go through the website (http://www.logitechcashback.com.au) Im sure the procedure will be online from 1st feb (i.e. if you need to send in your barcode or jsut rceipt etc. etc)
Best you check that out yourself - give some of them a call. Personally, i'll be going to OW coz they open super early.
talkingtree on 30/01/2011 - 14:24 ¶but you wont get the barcode at least 1 wk later due to shipment

So what's to stop a small computer store owner selling a single mouse to a family member for $300,000 and getting them to personally deliver the claim form at 9am Feb 1st to the rebate address, hence being the first (and possibly only) successful claim?
Logitech haven't thought this through.
