Moved to Forum: Original Link. It has been confirmed by Kogan that it is a price error. See email confirmation. Some stats before this post got moved to forum:

  • +593 / -22 votes with 45 voted revoked
  • 18,199 clicks

Looks like Kogan just had another price drop on this, at this price it won't last!
Be quick guys!

Credit goes to OzBargain user: tongyun for telling us about it :)

Update: Kogan has tweeted that this was not a price error, however this has since been quickly removed and it is unknown if orders will be honoured.

    Kogan no stranger to price errors - does honour them sometimes though!

    The great ozbargain mug(ging) of 2012:
    https://twitter.com/ruslankogan/status/228616942200709120
    where he learnt a "valuable lesson" - maybe forgot again?

    Honoured sale here:

      First one August 2011, second July 2012 - looks like he is due another about now!

      • wtfnodeal on 10/09/2013 - 22:03

        Looking at the trend then yes once a year pricing errors bound to honour?

    I can foresee in my crystal ball that there will be many of these on eBay in about a months time loll

    • mafmouf on 10/09/2013 - 23:25

      There is an app for that.

  • No ONE on 10/09/2013 - 21:07

    I just saw mobile Kogan's website. And in notification lists it has listed the Samsung S4 as a price drop. May be it's not a pricing error but who knows. That's my assumption.

        That's the i9500 (octa core 3G model) not the i9505 (this deal).

      • Rakddon on 10/09/2013 - 21:27

        That's I9500, We are talking about I9505 here!

      • bazzazz on 10/09/2013 - 21:27

    all i see on kogan's page is 'someone from xxx has just bought a samsung galaxy S4 4G LTE i9505'…
    at this rate every man and his dog in aus will be owning an S4

    • unicorn888 on 10/09/2013 - 21:25

      Nah..I just see " Someone in South Morang bought a HD Dash Cam Video Recorder"…lol

    I guess this is legit deal. Kogan site says that S4 i9505 on sale and save $180. Damn I m holding back myself and not to buy this..

  • ozbarghunt on 10/09/2013 - 21:16

  • jhova on 10/09/2013 - 21:17

    The Kogan email i got this morning said…

    Re: Samsung Galaxy S4 4G only $589 | Save $180!

    Samsung Galaxy S4 4G LTE i9505 Only $589
    Was $769 One day only!

    Be quick, offer ends midnight!

    Includes the latest Android OS 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, a stunning 5" Full HD 1080p Super AMOLED screen and the fastest processor seen in a smartphone.

    • lala1911 on 10/09/2013 - 21:25

      So initially $769.. take away 180 is $589, then take away another $180 then $409. Seems like a price error to me then.. maybe they deducted $180 twice?

    Even if it is not a price error. Still stock? Weird.

    • spoonmugen on 10/09/2013 - 22:11

      not weird… they dont hold stock in aus/hk warehouses

      they negotiate a price for min/max amt of units with a supplier…
      at $589 prob they had 10,000+ units available with margin (at that price they wouldnt have gotten near that number of sales (freight costs/people not wanting to spend 600+ on a phone)

      whoever did their webpage upload put in the discount twice…

      i'm sure you can connect the dots now :)

  • vietbargain on 10/09/2013 - 21:36
