A large number of markdowns starting 14th Sept in-store (possibly online as well but am not able to confirm on weekends). These are all clearance items, prices are nationwide and there's more than just the below but these are interesting ones to me:

Seagate 2TB Expansion Portable Hard Drive $49.99 - product code 36005
Phoenix Gold Iron $34.95 (originally $129.95 but more recently $69.95) - product code 47056
Logitech Wireless Mini Mouse $2.99 - product code 65774
Huawei Y5 2019 Arbon Unlocked $40 (was $199) - product code 44177
Huawei Y5 2019 Black Unlocked $40 (was $199) - product code 48663

      Can you post which stores in VIC have these in stock ?

            Best way to check stock unfortunately is in store (corporate or an LPO), the customer contact centre can check certain stock lines but depends on how helpful the person is.

      Prices are nationwide so LPOs can have these, but most likely it would be corporate stores only that have stock available.

    Y5 looks to have great bang for buck at $40, although no fingerprint reader or fast charging from what I can see?

      It's USB 3.0 backward compatible with USB 2.0.

    • silverx on 14/09/2020 - 09:25

      Was told they don't do seagate anymore which explains the price drop but 2 post office I checked this morning dont have them

      • EmployeeIronic fear @ Australia Post on 14/09/2020 - 12:14

        Yeah they're on clearance and aren't going to be stocked again for the foreseeable future (that's down to about a month now right?).

        Should've asked them to check other stores nearby for you, then again the staff should've offered to check for you….just being lazy

          For a basic phone it's probably only worth $40. No way I'd pay $199 for this. Even when first released.

          This phone was made public before 16 May 2019 when the US restraining order came into effect.

          As such, this phone has all Google Apps, and Play Store. Confirmed by @gottacatchemall here who purchased the phone this morning.

      All corporate stores stock phones, LPOs it varies on the owners preference.

      Try go to your nearest store and ask them to check for you (if they don't have any)?

      • newreg1 on 14/09/2020 - 05:44

        Is there a way to tell if it's a corporate store or not?

        • djoz on 14/09/2020 - 08:15

          I guess on their website, store locator, if the name ends with "Post Shop", its a corporate store. If the name ends with "LPO", its a local post office.

          Online prices are still not marked down. Could this be only in-store? Should I just go to the nearest store at 9:00 AM. Do all stores have it on display or we need to ask at the counter. This question as officially the marked down prices are not seen anywhere, unless in-store it is already marked down. I wish.
