      look at all these sour mode kids ganging up on me,

      1 I don't have a crystal ball, yet I don't make answers up if I haven't read such article b4,

      http://www.mweb.co.za/games/ViewNewsArticle/tabid/2549/Artic…

      ps 4 launched in nov 2013, by nov 2016, it would be 3 years out of possible 5, very likely rumors on 'next-gen' specs start to circulate.

      IMO, I am very certain the next platform will be x86 AMD again which means PS 4 library, will be fully compatible on the PS 5, which makes transitioning even easier than before. The launch price will remain the same again, and gamers will treat buying the new consoles like buying the next iPhone.

      2 I said 'I won't be surprised', I did not say that it WOULD HAPPEN, though why I hope these consoles get a faster refresh:

      the Jaguar 8 core and Radeon 7850 is subpar compared to how the PC platform is developing at a fast pace. Sure there is the low level API enjoyed by consoles, but DX 12 will close this gap once and for all.

      the market is pushing onto UHD at an incredible pace and AMD/Nvidia GPU's will have capable cards by 2015, while PS 4/Xbone GPU's will be struggling as they were meant for 720p - 1080p gaming.

      3 Stop being sour and enjoy your $399 consoles.

      • you make good argument this comment and like you said it is your opinion and could be valid. Possible - maybe, probable - we will wait and see. +ve from me.

        • No it's not. The really big games don't come out til late 2015. Why would Sony shoot themselves in the back? The most likely scenario would be a 1TB SKU by 2015-16.

        • @wonderboy:

          why does it matter if big games come out late 2015?

          if they maintain backwards compatibility by sticking with AMD platform, Sony can still sell these games on the PS 5 as well. Sony pushing all these content into downloadable format will make the transitioning easier than ever.

          PC platform has been incredibly robust for Windows gamers for many generations, we could still play games from 1990 on a windows 8 machine.

          Android and IOS has no issues selling multitudes of their hardware and still maintain game/app compatibility.

          I am sure consoles will face no issue if they stick to the same infrastructure.

          You console lovers just hate evolving huh?

        • it matters because big games coming out = console being in it's prime.

          why the f**k would they hint at a release of the PS5 only 3 years into it's lifecycle and when all the big games start coming out. i can see a slim ps4 in 2016 but no chance of anything detailing next ps.

        • @didsburydan:

          because the hardware this time around does not permit a longer life cycle than before.

          marketing will always evolve and Sony is NOT making a LOSS for each console sold this time around.

          http://www.gamespot.com/articles/sony-says-ps4-unlike-their-…
          Markets have evolved. It is easier to sell a mid range machine en masse for $399 rather than the PS 3 which debuted at a whooping $999 to have that big of a life cycle.

          Mod: Removed personal attack

        • so sony will be like… "hey guys, i know you've just bought X amount of new AAA games just recently for your new(ish) system, but sorry, here's the ps5…."

          don't think so.

        • @didsburydan:

          already explained backwards compatibility and the push for online library of downloadable content.

          why the online platform is attractive to Sony -

          • cheaper for game devs which leads to more competitively priced games
          • Sony gets a cut from game sales
          • easier to control piracy
          • console gamers could download their library from anywhere in the world and not having to carry bags of blu ray discs.

          why does it matter if Sony announces PS 5 with 100% full backwards compatibility?

          Blizzard never stopped me from playing Warcraft 2 on my Intel i7 PC, so why are console gamers so stuck up on playing their AAA titles only on one model/generation of their console?

          Most of the comments in this article all have similar views, so why can't the haters here? T_T

          http://bgr.com/2014/06/05/playstation-5-and-next-gen-xbox-la…

        • @annoynimous:
          mainly cause they make money from selling games and not from selling machines

          making consoles not backwards compatible means people are forced into buying games again once they get a new console

  • -3

    I got Xbox one at $459.16 with the code. (Already have ps4). But PayPal charged me full price of $583.95.
    Is this normal or is there a problem?
    eBay invoice shows up as $459.16 but why did I get charged full price?

    • You didn't.

      • -2

        Yes I did. It shows up in PayPal account as $573.95 transfer to dseoline.

        • Contact Paypal to fix it then.

        • Thats normal.. if you check you bank statement you will see only $399 comes out..

          happned to me when i got my LG G pro 2 .. 440 was taken out on paypal but Epaysaid #344

          my comm bank statement said $344

        • Login to paypal/ You will see that 80% came from your account, and 20% by "voucher".

    • I have the paypal app, and when I paid with the discount I made sure it said $399.20 before I paid, then after payment the paypal app sent me a notification that I'd paid $499.00 to dicksmithonline, so I panicked a little ;) but then when I checked my bank the pending transaction was only for the $399.20. Happy days!

      • I did the same thing and had a bit of a stress for 20 minutes last night.

        Clicking on view all in the paypal app shows three transactions:
        $-499 to DSE
        $+399.20 from my credit card
        $+99.80 from eBay international

  • Still available? DSE have all the stock in Australia?

  • +1

    anyone not received their order on the Eneloop Deal earlier this month?

    I sent two emails to DS online to inquire about it and;

    1st email received didn't answer my question, just said


    Hi XXXXX,

    We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for shopping with us.

    If you have any further inquiries please do not hesitate to contact us on 1300 366 644 or via email ([email protected]).


    I followed it up by sending another email to address the issued and that came back with;


    Hi XXX,

    In relation to your inquiry, please be advised that our warehouse is now processing your order (100398XXX).

    Dispatch and delivery information will be provided via automated email upon dispatch from the warehouse.

    We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

    If you have any further inquiries please do not hesitate to contact us on 1300 366 644 or via email ([email protected]).


    but I didn't even inquire about that order! the ones I inquired was 100165XXX and 100165XXX.

    How pathetic are their online team? Can't they even read my email?? TWICE have they not address my issue!

    Hope with their recent 20% discount on Sunday, their logistics don't screw up again.

    Thanks for reading

  • I haven't heard anything good about Dick's delivery through Star track. Has anyone had any weird issues with them? How long do they take to deliver after Shipping?
    I wouldn't be home and I am assuming they'd have a local depot in Sydney.
    Any info would help. Thanks guys.

    • I bought something off Dick Smith a few weeks ago. Delivery was pretty quick, dispatched after 2 days and attempted delivery the next day. They sourced the stock from a store near me though so it will depend where it is being shipped from.

      Star Track don't do redeliveries as far as I'm aware so you will be stuck picking it up from wherever your closest depot is. Not sure about NSW but in QLD there was only one in Brisbane and one on the Gold Coast so good luck.

    • I recently bought a dash camera from them on a Sunday night and received it on the Wednesday. It had been sent from a Canberra store and sent to my work at Nowra, so that I knew someone would be able to receive and sign for it.

    • I have never had an issue, by local star track guy is a good bloke and easy to deal with, kinda helps when you say hi to people.

    • mine's gone

      i don't know where they've sent it to and I'll have to keep chasing it with DS.

      very put off by this experience and i guess after 45 days I'll have to contact Paypal

  • Does the receipt from Dick Smith show full price or discounted price?

    • The actual DSE receipt shows the discounted price

  • +1

    I've never had an issue with Dick Smith/Star Track delivery…

  • +2

    Ordered one yesterday at 10.01am and another this afternoon. An hour or so later got an email from Dick Smith saying my order had been 'picked' and would be sent today. Had an invoice attached but not correlation to the eBay transaction so assume it was for yesterday's order but can't be sure they are not processing LIFO.

    No tracking number either, so hopefully that comes later. Shipping is via StarTrack Air (Formerly AAE), which is good because if you aren't home, it get's carded and taken to your nearest Post Shop. For some reason, things that go via StarTrack Road go back to the depot. DSE seem to use both services.

    I'm having mine shipped to an AusPost parcel locker anyway, which means I will get it the same day it's delivered as I can collect after work.

    • Cool I hope mine gets shipped soon!

    • keep us posted ajobbins!

    • Good to hear. I got mine at probably 10:20am so hopefully some time this week. A couple of other things I picked up have already shipped (including a PS4 game hah).

    • Serious? Ordered mine yesterday morning and nothing yet :(

    • +1

      Purchased mine at 9:55AM Yesterday and have yet to receive an email that it has been picked :\ Seeing as I was sitting there waiting to jump on the deal so I wouldn't have to deal with stock issues I sure do hope they deliver these in the order they were ordered…

    • +1

      Purchased mine with an extra controller at 7:55am AWST yesterday. Got an "invoice" this morning from Dick, showing only the controller…
      This does not bode well.

    • +1

      If you already have an account matching your ebay email, log in to the Dick Smith website. You'll see the order there.

      • My order says "awaiting fullfillment" this isn't listed in their tracking order FAQ, what does this mean ? :(

  • Does anyone know if Star Track will leave the PS4 at the Post Office? Or at the depot? I'm an hour away from Tullermarine in Vic.

    Also thinking about getting a TV too, what are the chances they leave it at my local PO given I'll be at work all week.

    • +1

      Star Track always leave my dse purchases at the local post office. You have a certain amount of days to claim your items from the post office, it's usually over a week. Just check on the card when you receive it. Most post offices are open on Saturday and Sunday mornings too.

      • Thanks Shamless, I've never had an issue with small items purchased from Dick Smith. As you said, it gets left at the PO.

        I'm just worried that the PO wouldn't accept a 50inch TV and make me trek all the way to the Tulla to pick it up…

        • +1

          They tend to ship the larger items to a major distribution centre if no one is available to collect. Had to travel an extra 20 mins to collect an imac recently in vic. It was an aust post outlet but a large business one in the south east burbs. Most smaller ones are at the local post office.

        • @pw2002au: Ah I see. Really appreciate the info pw.

  • +1

    This is still valid - i just bought one - lol it better come

    • Buying from DSE is a hit and miss. You get your items delivered then lucky you. If not it will be a nightmare to contact their 1300 customer services to either get your order delivered or get a refund. Today I just lodged a complaint with Consumer Protection because I called the DSE online support the guy on the phone said: "just lodge a complaint if you want to, your have your right to do so.". I said:" sure I will but before that I would like to complain about you can you please let me talk to your manager or supervisor?" The guy ported me to a voice message. LOL…

      • +2

        I'm still waiting on a refund on a phone from 10 months ago!!! Dick Smith customer service is a complete joke.

        • I love jokes for a laugh but DSE online support is trained to piss you off. They really sound to challenge you as if what are you going to do about it if we don't give a damn or don't care what are you talking about.

        • Did you say 10 months??? Have you treid any other ways to get your money back?? Long term interest free loan for DSE??

  • I hope Star Track don't delivery my PS4 like this!

  • nearly 4000 PS4 sold, i hope they have lot of stock.

  • +3

    Received the PS4 just now but didn't get a shipping notification or invoice for it. It came wrapped in plastic so looks like they've finally listened to the complaints. Thanks OP!

    • Where are you located? Do you know where it was sent from?

      • Can't find any info on where it was sent from. The package is dated 17/08/14 so looks like they started processing orders on the Sunday. I'm located in south west Sydney.

        • I think their online centre is in Western Sydney, which is probably why it arrived so fast.

          Do you have an account on the Dick Smith website? I logged into mine and it's showing both my eBay orders but with a status of "Awaiting fulfilment", even though I got my invoice yesterday and the email said it would be shipped same day.

  • +2

    Great news, my ps4 just arrived, had no confirmation email or tracking number. Other items I purchased ie controller and fifa14 haven't arrived yet, even though I received a confirmation email yesterday telling me they were picked and shipped…go figure. Great service from DSE, thanx for the speedy delivery.

    • Location?

      • Melbourne, northern suburbs

  • +2

    My PS4 just turned up! I'm in Adelaide.
    No emails or notifications/tracking info from Dick Smith, and still says "awaiting fullfillment" when I check the Dick Smith website.
    I ordered within the first ~5mins of the sale.

    Edit: great timing, my TLoU from Friday sale turned up with the same courier delivery.

    • That was fast!

    • Hi it was signature on delivery right ?

      • Yes, signature required. Mine was in a white plastic bag, but sounds like some people just received it as is.

  • Just ordered one.
    Am I missing something? PS4 had free shipping but the controller and Battlefield 4 charged me at $4.95 each

    • +1

      no, this is exactly right, PS4 only had the free freight but they will get you on the other items. Works out still ok hopefully mine will be waiting for me when I get home this afternoon :)

      • +1

        oh okay, thanks for the reply. I even tried to split the order. order 1: PS4 and order 2: battlefield 4 and controller.

        Shipping estimate is next Tuesday. Hopefully Dick Smith has enough stock.

  • +2

    Just an update - I ordered my PS4 at 10.01am on Sunday morning and it just arrived at my work as well (North Sydney area). Didnt even get a notification that it was going to be delivered or the invoice emailed to my account.

    Looks like they might just be smashing out the orders as fast as possible to make sure they can fulfill them quickly.

  • I ordered a PS4 at 10:24AM, I have not received any notification or invoice from Dick Smith apart from the payment confirmation from eBay/PayPal. By the looks of it, this might be a common occurrence.

    My housemate also ordered one at 10:25AM however with a different address (Work Address). No notification/invoice either.

    No sign of the PS4's as of yet (Which is fine since it's only been 2 Days). Thought this info might be worthwhile to people awaiting delivery near Brisbane CBD (Northern Suburbs). I'll provide an update if they happen to arrive at either address.

    • Also located near Brissy CBD. Ordered the PS4 at around 9 45am on Sunday. Received notice just before that it would be shipped today via Air Express. Also ordered a TV and TLOU on Sunday around the same time. Yet to get any shipping notices for those items.

    • Latest Update, Housemate just received his PS4, I'll be checking at Lunch to see if the other got delivered to the house (Probably needs to be picked up at the Post Office).

      No notifications however I'm pleased with the quick turn around!

      EDIT: This was ordered on Sunday, forgot to mention that.

      • Very nice mate! There is hope for us Queenslanders!!

  • Guys I bought a PS4 with a Controller on Sunday and they said it would be delivered on Friday BUT <b>Its ALREADY HERE </b> Great service!!

    I ordered a few other things which will tee it all off! but for $399 Im stoked!!

  • -6

    i ordered mine last night around 21:00 and recieved the ebay confirmation straight away.

    today i recieved the email saying its been picked and will be dispatched today.

    well see what happneds..

    or else i have a mate who works for fair trading - they may get a call from them LOL

    • I hope you have to get it repaired under warranty and they make you cry a little.

  • +3

    People need to just relax a little, it's only been just over two days since most people ordered. Try not to work yourselves up from reading other people's orders being delivered okay?

    • Who is getting worked up…?

      • +1

        The guy who said he ordered last night and is just about ready to call in a favour from his mate at fair trading.

    • I think it is more excited than worked up.

      • Yeah that's a better term, people may just get a bit disappointed if they don't receive it today.

        • -3

          lol its all good im just excited… no one getting worked up here…

          its a happy family here people .. everyone smile

  • Ordered mine late sunday and just received it :)

  • Just received mine, that was really unexpected.

  • I purchased a PS4 + TLOU, received an email invoice for TLOU only. Will be interesting to see what is delivered.

  • Purchased in Brisbane at 1pm Sunday, just received it today. No email update on eBay regarding shipping at all other than the original order confirmation email and Paypal invoice. That was unexpectedly quick! What a sexy looking box.

  • Ordered 4pm last Sun 17th Aug, just got delivered now at work!!! Luckily I did not opt to buy from US last month and instead waited here. Next, need to get good games…

  • I have received a unsealed PS4 box without courier pack. Does it happen to everyone?

    • I received mine the same way during the last sale.

      • cool, then i have nothing to worry about.

    • Mine just arrived the same way

  • I just received my PS4, I'm in Perth and it arrived by courier simply in it's PS4 Box…lucky I was home. I ordered mine on Sunday afternoon 5 hours into the sale, eBay still shows it as unsent so you can't rely on that

  • That was extremely quick shipping. Of course i missed the postie by 20mins and have to collect the PS4 from a post office that is incredibly annoying to get to without a car. Oh well, i'll be online by the weekend :)

    Good luck everyone!

    PS.. Is it true the boxes aren't even in another box or a parcel packaging and unsealed? The hell is with that? Why would anyone accept an opened box?!

    • I got mine (NSW) just now as well, ordered on Sunday night.
      Yeah it just came in a standalone ps4 box and was not in another parcel package, didn't really like that.

  • PS4 just arrived in Adelaide, SA.
    Was ordered very late on the day of the sale.

  • Something the size of a PS4 box just arrived… Haven't had a chance to open it yet but I'm pretty sure its the PS4. Wow Dick's quick…

  • also received mine today - the box wasnt "boxed"… it could have atleast been wrapped in one of those white bubble pack bags. The fact that it has arrived already is crazy

  • Just received mine.
    No Package wrapping.

    And NO INVOICE of any sort?

    How would the warranty work then???

    • Ebay order? Paypal Receipt? If you have a dicksmith account on the same address you're order will be on your account too.

      • But Paypal receipt it not a tax invoice I think…

        • I've used the ebay receipt for an Xbox 360 warranty return before without any troubles.

    I placed my order on Sunday 17/08/2014 at 10.14AM and it has just arrived and I live in Western Sydney. Postcode 2760 (Penrith Area)

    I originally purchased 2 items on the Saturday direct from their website (not Ebay) a Sony Soundbar and a $10 cheapo USB (I was being charged $10 shipping anyways so getting a USB at the same price which includes free shipping was a no brainer)

    The PS4 and USB arrived but not the soundbar yet.

    I am shocked that there was no packaging or plastic to safeguard the PS4. The courier was a nondescript white van (Contractor most likely)

    I just signed for it at 1PM this afternoon. Overall very happy with the prompt shipping considering the avalanche of orders.

    Also there was no email confirmation or tracking number, nothing to on Ebay to indicate it had been shipped. Figured they'd be inundated to actually update it.

    Image of how I received the parcels.

  • Got mine and game, no bubble wrap or anything around the PS4 like others have said, though the same thing happened with the original 3DS.
    Prior to receiving all I had was a tracking associated with the game I ordered.

  • just had my PS4 Eye Camera delivered, still no notifcation of the second controller.

    I did note on the Startrack web site that the item was picked up from Narre Warren (so I'm guessing from the DSE store at Fountain Gate, then delivered to me.) So I'm guessing stores are clearing out stock as well.

  • Just received my PS4 as well on the Central Coast, NSW after ordering at 10:02.

    Mine did arrive in a non-descript white plastic parcel bag, maybe I was lucky, or maybe because it's bucketing down here they had some sense? Either way happy gaming for this weekend!
