    Also very surprised at the exclusions.

      You mean the same ones they do every other time? Plus all the popular items that people actually want!

      It's about time Dick Smith was added to Ozbargains exclusion list.

      The only exclusion that would surprise me is if Apple were excluded (from the exclusions.)

    Sounds like they have sales every Sunday. I thought it was every day!

      According to my emails, 3 times a day!

        Agreed. I've received at least 12 emails in the last 5 days. Talk about an ineffectual market strategy… I've felt the urge to unsubscribe before - today I acted on that. Grumpfh!

  • stilted on 10/05/2015 - 09:55

    Weird that the Sony blutooth speaker is excluded.

      I was going to buy it too. Sighs. Too late now, it's going back up to $149 on the 12th.

  • phunkyfeelone on 10/05/2015 - 10:40

    A special is not a special when it happens weekly.

    Such an amateur marketing department.
    Look at Officeworks as a competitor (on fast moving pc\tabs\phone), any price they put out will be beaten.
    They need to have a policy of matching lowest price, to avoid people taking their 'specials' to competitor stores and getting 5% less.

    DSE, hire a marketing professional and listen to them, not a graduate.

    • Snoop on 10/05/2015 - 14:23

      They do have a price match policy. But personally, they're not worth the stuff around to get it through them!

      • rystyle7 on 10/05/2015 - 16:02

        @Snoop: I agree, point #10 of their price matching policy makes it not worth the time to be honest:

        The price must not be below our cost price.

        Last week I asked for a set of these Logitech h800's, with an RRP of $179, to be pricematched with Officeworks $129 RRP.

        Staff member said nope, the lowest they can go is $144 as that is cost price.
        I drove a little further to save the $15…

        What retailer pays such a high cost price for common goods? Perhaps they need a new purchasing department…

        • deal88 on 10/05/2015 - 16:38

          Yep, these dodgy price match policies should be outlawed. Same rubbish from Myer. Would not even price match Officeworks or Harvey Norman, because supposedly under cost.

        • zealmax on 11/05/2015 - 07:55

          @deal88: When they say cost price, they dont mean their supplier price. They have some formula that factors in their out goings such as labour costs and rent.

        • Snoop on 11/05/2015 - 11:51

          @zealmax:
          Then that would effectively give a discount of maybe 15-20% MAXIMUM across the board! Even saying that, I highly doubt DSE would gross a 15% profit… So it's a BS way of costing an individual product!
          edit: And even then, you should negate those losses on slow moving/obsolete products or supplier cost variances against your leader products that are making you money! (i.e. all the things they don't usually discount like Apple, Kindle, etc.)

        • Snoop on 11/05/2015 - 13:12

          I highly doubt DSE would gross a 15% profit…

          Obviously I meant NET a profit!

        • zealmax on 11/05/2015 - 21:19

          @Snoop: Sometimes they do, but there are also rebates from suppliers for meeting certain sales targets. For instance if they sell 100 TV in a set period, they could get 20% rebate from the supplier, on top of what ever they made.

        • Snoop on 12/05/2015 - 00:17

          @zealmax:
          True, as do other companies in other industries. But usually a company (like my former) would do greater discounts to try achieve these targets in order to actually profit further. DSE's selling tactics go completely against this! Hence the reason why most of us go to OW or JB, etc.

        • deal88 on 02/06/2015 - 15:34

          @zealmax:

          Yep. When I worked at Hardley Normal, it was called "landed price".

        • Snoop on 02/06/2015 - 23:20

          @deal88:
          That's a silly thing to call it. A 'Landed Price' in most companies/industries refers to the cost of a product including shipping, taxes, duties, exchange rates, freight to door, etc. Not labour costs, rent, and other outgoings. It would also be near impossible to calculate correctly unless you simply went off of forecasted figures and previous P&L's. Sure you budget for an expected expenditure, but that just goes into the bottom line, not individual item pricing.
          You can also gauge a bottom line GP% that you require to make a profit. For one of my companies it was approx 13%. So as an idea, we knew that if we weren't making a 13% gross profit, then we were actually losing money. But like I said, that's off the bottom line. You can't price a product in this manner because if you're selling a $#!tload of $10 products as opposed to your $100 products, you're gonna go under pretty quickly!

  • WatchNerd on 10/05/2015 - 10:44

    Any bargains?

    • edfoo on 10/05/2015 - 11:09

      Looks like the bargain is the $20 to $100 off their regular prices.

      • WatchNerd on 10/05/2015 - 11:41
        +2

        Yeah but what's regular?
        Regular prices can fluctuate $20-$100 for no real reason from one day to the next.

  • 41202 on 10/05/2015 - 10:54

    how is this soundbar

    worths $179？

    something weird about this site
    type 'galaxy s5' into the search bar, and it brings up a whole bunch of s5 handsets + accessories at really great prices, with the text 'one day online only offer!!' or something in red
    then you click onto the item and it reverts back to full price? :/

    • miq on 10/05/2015 - 11:42

      e.g. the Lifeproof Fre case shows as $68.75, but when you click onto its page it says $109

      CaseMate Barely There shows as $9.90 but changes to #39.98

      anyone else getting this problem?

      • bg on 10/05/2015 - 14:16

        Yes- the "one day only" is from yesterday's sale - and for my purposes - toner - was much better deal. When I first saw the reduced price plus $20 off, I was excited and plotting to return the new order - not to be, reverted to full price (as it was last week).

    Anyone guess what next weeks DSE special will be. lmao

      I guess next week special is going to exclude Apple (again).

    • Snoop on 10/05/2015 - 14:26

    I'm most excited by waiting for the alliteration in the name. Personally, I'm waiting for their 'same old Saturday' and 'woeful Wednesday' sales before I buy.

  • deal88 on 10/05/2015 - 12:37

    Wemo light kits are $125 down from $170.
    With code $105 with click and collect.

    Strangely these don't exist on the DS mobile site, but are on the full site.

  • Cam0 on 10/05/2015 - 12:37

    DSE have marked down some decent sennheiser headphones to reasonably good bargain prices, but when I go to check-out they are back to standard prices :(

  • peter296 on 10/05/2015 - 12:44

    I just wish they would clear out the items that they don't have any stock of. I've been watching a couple of their TVs now for a fortnight,the price goes up & down every few days but available In Store only and no store has any stock and being a superceded model I doubt they ever will.

    Thanks OP. I bought a laptop that was on sale and then got another $80 off the price.
