Hi all, we are closing down after quite a few years in the industry. We are madly counting stock and listing items as we go once we sort out what's what. So new stuff is getting added daily, and prices may get reduced further as we finalise things, so its worth keeping a track. Best option is the link above, as items we are returning to suppliers or not got to yet will still be at normal price on the site.
We want to clear everything by 31/8.
No returns on sale deals.
"Everything Reduced from about 50% OFF up to 90% OFF"
Can we get a better price on the KOR water bottles OP? From $19.75 to $17.75…. really?
Factor in shipping and its the same price most stores sell them for normally….
yes, the Rep has just picked up all stock they required back, so we will be working through the remaining KOR inventory later today and re-pricing.
Apologies the site is still crashing - maybe I didn't pay that bill! :-)
KOR bottles have been reduced now, be quick as there was not a lot of stock left over after the Rep collected stuff.
please use the link below for what's been marked down already, not everything on the site has been marked down yet guys. if its less than 50% off then we ain't got to it yet. We are also delayed by the 502 Bad Gateway Error.

Website crashing/ or dead slow. I don't seem to understand how a website breaks down after an ozbargain mention (I know I can't underestimate the power of ozbargain) but geez this is not a twitter mention. Those businesses are likely hosting servers in a home garage of one of the owners :)
Businesses hosting server at home, that's a worry :)
By the time the website is available is already been ozbargained!
believe it or not its supposed to be a hosted managed service that allows for extra traffic, think it could be related to our internal company issues and the reason we are closing! Its definitely not in my garage! :-(
According to this http://websiterecord.com/dm/outdoorgearstore.com.au (Go to the bottom of page) is is hosted in the USA.
Lol whoever provides your server should be closing instead
So I gather you are one of the owners. I'm sorry mate and wish your loss is reduced with this ozbargain mention.
cheers, yes I am one of, and we've had some good ozbargain traffic and sales today,so thanks all.
Main things i really want:
$60 socks for $5.
Finding out about these 'internal company issues'.
EDIT: me no getting anywhere with website … darn it.
i think they've fixed it now, seems to be responding well, constantly - for now!
Earthman I think you underestimate the power of ozbargain. That and some hosting providers are just plain crap, stuck in the 90's.
At least the music was good back then
rep, website down
maybe tell him he is closing down too ;-)
:-)
Is the seat your sitting on for sale
already sold and wheeled away, I'm kneeling in front of the computer now!
Next to go will be his computer mouse, quick, google all the keyboard shortcuts!
You are hilarious, OP@!
Can't access the website… always 502 Bad Gateway…
bare with us, we are getting heaps of orders - thank you all very much for your support, its needed and appreciated
bare with you? You've even sold the clothes off your own back?
Ha ha
Rep: If your store closed due to communication issues with customers due to spelling and grammar, do not open another one :p
So many condescending comments in one thread.
I'll cop that one, hate bad spelling myself, was just under the pump today, bit of stress in my life right now!
Atleast buy me dinner first!
I'll look again later when site is running faster and you have discounted the kayak gear.
+1 for kayak gear
few more kayak accessories up now
site OZBARGAINED so slow if lucky enough otherwise "502 Bad Gateway"
Just wait till midnight when everyone's asleep, I'm sure than site will be fully functional.
Yep. And all the good stuff will be gone.
no it wont, we've got heaps of gear still to get up there
Nice try devok.
Wont fall for it tho
502 error.
Any plans to further reduce the Kor Bottles?
yes, tomorrow now, delayed due to the continued crashing today
just done, be quick!
Rep, would you mind confirming whether pickup from the St. Kilda store is available or not? Read a couple of contradicting comments. Thanks.
no, St Kilda closed now, "in store pickup" has finally been taken off the cart this arvo. sorry.
No problem, thanks. Ordered a couple little things - looking forward to seeing updated pricelists.
Yup, I give up, can't get through the checkout phase….
undies $24. are you joking.sorry no bargain
which ones and I'll take a look
undies fixed and further reduced.
Hi Rep, will there be any sleeping bags, tents, sleeping pads or cooking gear? Thanks for your patience - and good luck to you for the future too.
sleeping bags all gone, tents have all gone, possibly some cooking gear still to come, heaps of climbing gear still to come.
Great, thank you for your reply :)
Hey rep, are the prices on those arc'teryx packs going to move? Would love to get my sticky mitts on one!
indeed, Arc'teryx are picking up stock tomorrow morning and then we'll know what we can clear out, stay tuned
Cheers!
This pack is bombproof. Designed for Alpine, hiking or travelling.
Good for a trip to the local fruit & vegi shop as well i'm sure…
Hey rep, I'm on the look out for snow gear - a new helmet would be great, wouldn't have any instock? Also all the best for future
yes, we should have some Scott USA ones left. I'll look now and make sure they are added to the "Snow Gear on Sale" under that Closing Down link - http://www.outdoorgearstore.com.au/closing-down-bargains-end…
sorry, just checked only one adult and one kids helmet left. maybe they'll suit at the price? Thanks for your best wishes.
Hi rep, I'm just checking out the climbing gear. Are we likely to see discounts on helmets and passive protection?
yes, hopefully from tomorrow.
Thanks for the response. Is pickup still viable today, or are you only shipping? If so, how does it work with the forced ship charge?
Read up a little bit: "no, St Kilda closed now, "in store pickup" has finally been taken off the cart this arvo. sorry."
is $9.95 delivery charge for one single order (may have many items)?
total order freight charge, all orders any value $9.95 delivery Australia Wide
Holy cowpat - 21,000 clicks.
Too late baby for those $60 socks for $5.
Hell, i didn't even know you could get socks for $60…
Ordered a few items just now, hopefully they're in stock!
I posted an order but no where did it ask for the $9.95 shipping fee… Total order was > $100
If people pay $3 because of the super sale and demanding a return after, they need to get a new job
UPDATE: Ok, never mind, there are items over $100
We are just adding a heap of SIGG stock to the Hydration Clearance Page, these make great gifts for kids when you can't think of what to get!
http://www.outdoorgearstore.com.au/closing-down-bargains-end…
Wow 24000 clicks and counting, thanks heaps guys and girls, your support is really appreciated.
We will be throwing a small gift in with all your orders, thanks heaps
Just ordered some water bottles for christmas presents… :) some of the sigg ones are really cute!
Wow.. some really nice prices on there..
Any chance of a discount being applied on the Magellan eXplorist 310 Handheld GPS? Would make a great fathers day gift!
got some great Magellan packages being worked on now, not sure what models, but i'll let you know as soon as they are ready to go live
Looks like we've been able to make up some Fathers Day bundles, so check http://www.outdoorgearstore.com.au/closing-down-bargains-end… in 5 or so minutes as the packs will sell out fast I'm guessing and there is only one of each.
Some interesting prices on mens shoes if you have a size 7/8 foot

Is camping going going up? Tents, Sleeping bags etc or has that already gone ?
will be some camping stuff, look likes most tents and sleeping bags have gone back to suppliers today, but I'll let you know.
just ordered climbing shoes this morning, hope all goes well for you in the future OP!
What can you do for a couple of fetch balls & ultimate discs? :D Thanks again rep!
leave it with me for a few minutes, just working on a heap of GO PRO accessories and then I'll look at discs for you.
Thanks :P
take a peak at the Camping Gear on sale sub category http://www.outdoorgearstore.com.au/closing-down-bargains-end… hope this helps
Hmm.. I tried ordering… PM sent rep
Hi Rep.
I sent you a PM. Made a booboo on my order. Could you please help?
Thanks.
all fixed, cheers
Some really good prices here! Just placed my order - thanks!
Hi Rep, I know you must be busy discounting stock but if you could discount http://www.outdoorgearstore.com.au/metolius-soft-grip-saver-… that would be much appreciated, thanks!
we are working on Metolius later today, so hang in there, a lot of the Metolius stock is going back to them, but I'll let you know how we go with gripsavers
Some great deals left on the site, but it looks like they're going fast. Have just ordered some BARGAIN shoes!
OP, I have a query about my order and have sent you a PM.
wanted to get some bottles but looks like most have sold out now
I think most have, but shortly the KOR range will be discounted, take a look around 4pm today
With your positive attitude, I'm hoping whatever endeavour you undertake next will be a raging success. Wishing you the very best.
Hi Rep… PM Sent
Yesterday the Magellan 310 was listed as:
OUR PRICE: $229.00
RRP: $249.00
Today :
OUR PRICE: $199.00
RRP: $319.00
Was this done to give the appearance of a greater discount (38%)?
It was done to try and incorporate the FREEBIES we've added because the discount was showing at 17% and obviously everything else is 50%+ off.
What we did was added the value of the FREEBIES ($60 from memory) to each bundle price, but we also took an extra $10 off the Sale Price from memory, so the actual purchase price today should still be less than yesterday, it just looked "odd" on the site.
Any probs, let me know
Hi Rep. Tried to order Online an don't know if it order went through… PM Sent
Thanks for the regular updates Rep - I've ordered a bunch of things already.
Please keep the updates coming as you add more stock to the sale.
yes it is! :-) but its human nature isn't it these days. God bless the internet!
