Moved to Forum: Original Link. MOD: Price Match is not a bargain as per our posting guidelines. Original receipt has been posted before which was a price match Kogan -> The Good Guys -> JB Hi-Fi. Note that the price might not be reproducible in other JB Hi-Fi stores.

Boys and girls, as promised, receipt is attached!!

Edited: Extended warranty and cover are my own option!! It does not form part of the $249 deal!!!

Think, even if the warranty and cover is part of the deal, you can always refund it the next day and keep the tablet… THINK!

I printed out an price matching invoice from the internet and went to JB and got the deal without question ask!! Never try never know!

    You are joking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now let the search for price match begin!

  • purplewatermelon on 31/10/2013 - 20:37

    Do people do price match from a uploaded receipt at all?

    • edgar28 on 31/10/2013 - 20:38

      Tried before on OW and bigw, most stated it is particular store clearance and not allow to price match.
      unless it's catalogue special and with stock…..

    • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 20:47

      I did exactly the same, printed out an invoice from the internet and went to JB, and got the deal!!

    why did you buy extended warranty? lol.

      I think the salesperson must've negotiated him into it otherwise no $249.
      so its not REALLY $249.
      unless op just wanted it lol

      • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 20:48

        I always have extended warranty on all my gadget, so that I can swap for a new one when it comes to 2 years.

          You do realise that you've thrown money down the dunny. Educate yourself re: Australian Consumer Law Consumer Guarantees.

        • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:48

          That's my option cheers.

          PinzVidz is right. You get 2 years warranty anyway, why purchase extra?

          You basically got it for $304 since the extra warranty is worthless.

  • longislandicetea on 31/10/2013 - 20:42

    In my past experience if you buy additional stuff like extended warranty and covers and screen protectors etc the price of the tablet goes down if you walk into jbhifi tomorrow asking them to price match they probably wont without the additional items but worth a try

  • tonyyang on 31/10/2013 - 20:42

    249 you must be kidding!!! How did you get it?

    • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:28

    Price Matching is not a bargain!
    Judging from you receipt you problably manage to price match a Nexus 2012 Price at The Good Guy for a Nexus 2013 at JB.

    Not sure if the people at JB made a mistake or they are willing to sell it at this price consider you also pay $55 for extra warranty and buy a $30 cover from them that would cost $10 on ebay.

    So as per Ozbargain rule and guideline this is not a deal. However if i am wrong then tell me the whole truth how you got this price and i will happily revoke my neg.

      • highdealer on 31/10/2013 - 21:08

        May be you should upload the invoice you use to price match?
        I am 100% sure you use a 2012 model receipt from the good guy to price match which is a scam.
        And price matching receipt deal are not allow anyway.
        You can post price match deal but only to Advertise deal. In this case you post the advertise deal and link the store you price match with.

  • Nutrino on 31/10/2013 - 20:43

    So you walked in and got it at this price?… where is the story that usually comes with these kind of deals.

    • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:31

      Address of the store printed on the receipt

        He said story, like, what did you do/say/show them to get the deal? I doubt its really that easy to walk in and get the tablet on its own for $249.

  • unity1 on 31/10/2013 - 20:44

    The price of the tablet is reflected in the extra warranty price. No deal. Also, not an advertised deal.

    • boredofficeworker on 31/10/2013 - 21:38

      His "efforts" include ripping the store off by price matching a different model by the looks of things, I won't neg, but I can't say I disagree with their reasoning.

      • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:41

        Refer to the edited post with the original price matching invoice. Believe it or not, that's the invoice I have used.

        It's the 2013 model.

  • wukachuka on 31/10/2013 - 20:48

    They could afford to sell it to him at that price cause he bought the extended warranty, which is like 100% profit to them and the $30 case which i bet they made at least $20 bucks on.
    So the real price is more like $330 odd dollars… which, strangely enough, jb hi-fi are selling these for $333 at the moment… lol…

    • mirovich on 31/10/2013 - 21:04

      Yea, it seems to me the buyer got ripped off.

      • silverx on 31/10/2013 - 21:11

        So he paid 330 which is what you would normally pay @jb but he got extended warranty and case and he is getting ripped off?

        Refer to the edited post cheers

    Clearly says price matched to good guys so useless- need good guys price. Price matching deals shouldn't be posted anyway.

    I think will be a good idea to open forum for uploading recipets, to stop the fight and auguring about it deal or no deal.

    Anyway thanks op I knew you uploaded it after some requests from ozbargainers

  • jva on 31/10/2013 - 21:14

    "Good Guys" n "extended warranty" make things complicated!

    • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:35

      Warranty does not form part of the deal. I asked for that after they gave me the deal.

        thanks bro anyway

  • boredofficeworker on 31/10/2013 - 21:36

    Price matching not a deal, warranty/accessories are high mark up for the store, and Dick Smith are not advertising $249 other than the 2012 model.

    • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:43

      Please refer to the edited post with the receipt I used for price matching. Believe it or not, I got the deal.

    +1 for the effort to upload & help others. Don't understand why people are complaining, if its not bargain to them, then just don't use it.

    • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:43

      Thank you very much!!!!

    jb hifi was in the wrong side this time. if only they checked the date of transaction, September 2013(?), it's more than a month ago.

    • cTheng on 31/10/2013 - 21:50

      They did check and somehow rang up GG, but I still get the deal. Cheers

      I agree, but by taking in a month old receipt to price match the OP isn't exactly doing the right thing by JB-Hifi. I'm not negging this deal. I just don't think it's a true deal. Pricing errors are one thing, but intentionally trying to rip off stores by abusing their price matching runs the risk of them tightening their policy. Just my opinion.

        Just thought of sharing, end of story.

      • watty on 31/10/2013 - 22:08

        Op was unethical by doing this, but a deal is a deal i guess…

  • aec on 31/10/2013 - 22:36

    good job, op. thanks for sharing.

  • highdealer on 31/10/2013 - 22:51

    The original price match receipt is a price match receipt itself.
    I am sure this orginal receipt was posted before but got remove but the mod.

    • [Deactivated] on 31/10/2013 - 23:00

      From the mess I gather, the OP pricematched a receipt for a 2013 Nexus from JBHIFI Blacktown which pricematched (the assumption insert) the TGG price of a 2012 model. The OP bought his in Brisbane, Adelaide St which really makes you wrong in the way you are accusing him.

      PMatching is however not a deal and you are right in that sense.

      • highdealer on 31/10/2013 - 23:05

        Sorry my assumption is wrong, this receipt was posted before here http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/116948

        According to that post, that receipt was price match using a good guy receipt price matching kogan price of a Nexus 2013 but 16GB version.
        It was move to forum so i expect this to be deal with the same way.

        Not only that is a price matching deal it is also a dupe price matching deal.

  • Cheeper on 31/10/2013 - 23:06

    Anyone offered JB $249 yet? What was the result?

  • bbyboy on 31/10/2013 - 23:37

    price matching is not a bargain
    the sales person must be new because the receipt is over a month old. anyone with experience will tell you no
