Available in-store only nationally from 9am today. Will update prices as they filter through. Good luck!

Everyone, I'm seeing a lot of comments here about people walking into stores and seeing nothing on sale. You may actually be missing out if you leave. I've just been to Broadmeadows (10:45am) and nothing is tagged. I asked the sales rep, and he took me through the specials.

YOU NEED TO ASK!!!

6x iPad mini ex demo $99
1x iPad Air 16GB ex demo $99
2x Nikon J3 $99 (one display)

          There's your problem - they'll tell you one thing but the item will scan at the lower price. Even if it doesn't, you can just say you changed your mind.

    Nothing left for ps4, including gaming accessories like dual shock controller is still normal price. hope 1tb version will get a discount in the next few days.

  • Ryugen on 02/12/2015 - 13:32

    DSE Maddington, supposedly people lined up first thing 9am and grabbed all the apple stuff. Heaps of GoPro mounts left, few PS4/PS3/ONE/PC games left, quite a few printers, laptops as well. Didn't ask about TVs as not interested. I've got a photo of the laptop and printer clearance tags which ill try uploading in a bit.

    Has anyone tried stores in Canberra? I went into the Belconnen store and was told there was no sale and they havent been told. Kind of dodgy i think

    • timoth on 02/12/2015 - 13:55

      Went to Civic at lunch. Checked an ipad air 32GB, but was $556.

      All the DSLR's apparently sold yesterday. Only a D3200 with parts missing left.

      There were still some XBOX 360, XBOX One and playstation games on sale.

      Didn't look at the TV's

      Asked if any of the phones were on sale and was told none were.

      Went to Woden at lunch. Full of guys on their phones looking at the postimg.com links in the main post, checking model numbers as prices were not marked.

      Very small selection of TVs. Had JVC and DSE brands available, all decent brands were sold. Didn't check anything else but the staff seemed keen to help and give out prices when asked.

      • Circly on 02/12/2015 - 14:11

        haha yeah I saw so many ozbargainers with their phone out looking shifty.

    • akd on 02/12/2015 - 14:02

      Checked Civic store. Same response as timoth.
      Staff said they might add few things in afternoon may be laptops

    • antman8 on 02/12/2015 - 14:49

      Thanks ppls. Belconnen is holding out for sure. Quite annoying

  • RichieDuck on 02/12/2015 - 13:34

    I'm confused so should all TV's they have in stock be on special or only the ex display ones and others listed?

    • hippo2s on 02/12/2015 - 13:37

      it looked like just display ones and 'manager & catalogue specials'….no discount on top

    • TenaciousTom on 02/12/2015 - 13:38
      +1

      This seems to be what's making people mad. I spoke to a store manager who was enthusiastic about the sale.

      The ex display models are on sale at the stupid cheap prices plus anymore they want to sell AT THE STORES DISCRETION. They are only told about what is going to be on sale and at what prices THAT MORNING. So everyone getting mad that they don't know prices/stock is an idiot because they probably don't at 9am! Just be polite and ask about them.

      • RichieDuck on 02/12/2015 - 13:40
        +3

        what happens if we show them that list? I'm suspecting some of the stores are keeping stock for themselves and mates

        • TenaciousTom on 02/12/2015 - 19:54

          I can assure you that stock would be gone within an hour of the store opening. Those lists you are looking at are for DISPLAY MODELS with VERY LIMITED STOCK.

    • GunnerMcDagget on 02/12/2015 - 13:47

      Ex Displays and clearance have massive reductions, the rest have minor reductions.

      • hippo2s on 02/12/2015 - 15:29

        Must admit this has been a great marketing ploy to get people into their stories instead of going to JB Hifi first.

    thanks op managed to pick up 2 x jvc 40" tv's for $149 each. pic quality looked ok. was looking for 2 x 40" for the new house. rojomojo i think we may have been in the same store this morn. i was after a smaller 32 or 21.5 inch for the garage but they didnt have any.

    • RojoMojo on 02/12/2015 - 14:07

      Yep, i wanted the 40" you got :)
      Oh well never mind, at least you persisted and got the deal, well done.
      USB movie playback support is very good at least, better than my WDTV, far more format support.

      • HQGTS on 03/12/2015 - 00:42

        Sorry mate Was going through everything, would have liked another tv but in the end i think the sales guy was getting a bit frustrated. Good of him to print the price list though.

  • birdmaster on 02/12/2015 - 13:36

    I think it depends on store to store. or They are all advised of final clearence price but tell customer somehting else so let them bargain.

    Went to chatswood NSW Nikon D3300 ex demo was offering me $699.
    cannon EOS550 was offering me $550 (a 4 year old camera and this much price).

    • GunnerMcDagget on 02/12/2015 - 13:46

      I think the D3300's aren't part of the clearance. Saw two at two different DS's and they both scanned as $699.

  • RichieDuck on 02/12/2015 - 13:42

    what happens as an alternative if you just grab an item and then get it scanned? Surely then it has to scan at the right price, or can the local store's adjust prices on their system?

  • justtoreply on 02/12/2015 - 13:43

    If you are looking in the comments for a deal, you're already too late. By the time you get to the store its going to be gone anyway.

  • L0zBargain on 02/12/2015 - 13:44

    I just ducked out to East Gardens so I didn't feel left out.

    Everything seems wiped out. I just bought like $30 worth of Kaiser mounts for my Cuz and I.

    All $1 except for the floatie handle which was $5. They did have J, flat and tripod mounts for like $4-6 which I didn't bother with. Seemed that GoPro accessories were still full price. The clampy bendy thing was still $90 or something silly like that.

    I now feel part of it :)

    No cameras and no TVs it seemed, sales guy said someone came through and bought it all up.

    • alext0413 on 02/12/2015 - 14:22

    Guys, sorry but this needs to be said.

    I've received a PM from an employee of Dick Smith. He was upset, and totally unbelieving of the treatment he's been receiving in-store and on the phone by people claiming to have seen this post. Yes OzBargainers! He's been verbally abused, shown no respect, and threatened because apparently it's his fault they have no stock of product. These are real human beings - like you and I. They may not have a job soon - think of that. And this kid is 17 years old. I'm ashamed!

    • s26f84 on 02/12/2015 - 13:53

      Yup stop abusing them. I walked out of store and said thanks to the staff. It is clearance stock and they may not have them.

    • aspirepranesh on 02/12/2015 - 13:53

      I was at Glen Waverly some time ago, the staff were friendly. But they wouldnt go further to check on the stock and prices when I pressed further. I also ran into a staff member from an other store who was here to pick up some stuff for himself. But I didnt see any point in getting into an argument and waste my time if they dont have stuff really or not willing to help . Just hard luck. Happy to walk away.

    • golferpat on 02/12/2015 - 13:54

      Agreed. I guess some people can't accept the fact they missed out - not everyone is going to get a bargain. If you do congratulations, but if Dick Smith does go under these people are potentially out of work for the holiday season so at least be nice.

      +1 this.
      The staff in the store were practically in tears.
      Head office is handling the whole process very poorly and not giving any lead time for staff to get ready.

      There were people in store literally ripping the tickets and manager sheets off of staff.
      All un-necessary I asked politely and was served promptly, although after the a fore mentioned actions the staffed attitudes soured very quickly.

      While I will be returning, I feel bad doing so.

      While some DSE staff are doing the wrong thing and hoarding stock, this is the minority and you should not treat them poorly
      It is Xmas and the writing is on the wall for these guys. Have a heart!

          Went looking for a PVR, or something similar. Not much left - it's a smaller store and doesn't stock much normally.

      Second to this, I had a word to the manager and hopefully she will be willing for me to take photo's of the sheets tomorrow morning.
      This is for everyone benefit as it will free up staff and allow the bargain hunters to know in advance what items are on sale and their pricing.

      It is significantly easier for staff to look up CAT codes rather than do broad product searches.

      Hopefully she is on tomorrow and isn't on stress leave…

          @theworks:

          Then please don't say these issues arise from lack of stock (which is actually not even true for everyone - many people have managed to get some great bargains so far thanks to these Dick Smith posts, so I'm not sure how this post is violating Ozbargain posting guidelines). That shifts the blame away from rude and abusive people, who are entirely responsible for their own behaviour and ought to know better.

        • theworks on 02/12/2015 - 14:34

          @Lioness15:

          I agree with you, the abusive and rude people are the problem. Tightarse didn't create rude or abusive people, they exist everywhere.

          The problem as I badly phrased it is sending those people to stores that (with a high probability) don't have stock.

          To me, this is proof that the thread in its current form shouldn't exist (and I'm sure the admins would begrudgingly agree).

          Just because you lucked out doesn't mean we all did.
          Just because one store didn't have adequate stock doesn't mean that all did.

          Mackay still has dozens of games and TV's

          The cheaper things become or the better the deal is, the more scumbagy type people you have to deal with unfortunately just like the above poster. Gets angry and blames others because he cant get a "bargain".

          Ive found this within my own personal business, completely not retail related (im a tradie) but offering services cheap I just found I was constantly dealing with broke shitbags who expected everything for free. I now charge above average and while it cuts out many customers, the ones I do deal with have a realistic budget and are so much easier to deal with.

          I purposely charge slightly more than other local guys and its good peace of mind knowing they are dealing with all the scum that I dont have to bother wasting time on anymore :)

        • theworks on 02/12/2015 - 14:24

          @immortalbjr:

          I'm not angry, I didn't even go to a store.

          I just think its a bit rich to skirt posting guidelines then complain that people are acting the way they were before the guidelines were put in. Even the original post says to approach staff and ask about the deals (which over two days would really grind down the staff).

          Apologies if I offended anyone but my point remains. No stock, no deal.

          @theworks: My 2 cents. If its was an online only store and out of stock, I understand and agree that its NOT a deal (anymore) and can argue to change this post to be EXPIRED.

          Clearly, there are still people out there who are able to pick up the items (without being (profanity)).

          @theworks: I did go to a store, today and yesterday, and there was stock both times and plenty of it for a variety of items. Heck at lunch today they still had games on special that were included in yesterdays rounds of discounts. If people are upset that what they want isn't there then that's their problem, not the OP's or Dick Smiths. It's a clearance. Expectations should be adjusted to match.

          @Phreaker: Do you know if the Canon 700d is still in stock? today?

        • Phreaker on 02/12/2015 - 15:50

          @polar:

          They still had D3200's and D3100 floor stock.
          First thing this morning they still had the 700D

          I would say your chances are still fair :)

          @Phreaker: Thanks will get a friend to check for me.

          @theworks:

          Do you not understand what a clearance sale is? your a special kind of stupid. This is a once off thing so no, not everyone is going to get ipads for $99. The OP is letting people know some of whats available and to head to your local DSE if you want to try your luck.

          Theres no use blasting the OP or having a whinge on an internet forum over what you already know, you haven't even gone to a store yet your complaining on a forum about it.

          I seen the post, decided I can free up an hour this morning and took a drive down to my store. No such luck for me as some others but I was kinda expecting that, but I didnt feel the need to come and vent from behind a keyboard over my experience, maybe its time you found something more constructive to do with your time.

          @polar:
          I was just in there they still had a D3200 floor model and a D3100 floor model there.
          Forgot to ask about the 700D for you mate :(

          The staff looked shagged, the manager wasn't there today.
          Apparently a heap of stock is reading in stock but is missing, sounds like there is a shrinkage issue at the store…

          Really bummed as the TV I wanted to grab shows in stock but is missing.

          @Phreaker: Thanks Phreaker. They were out of 700d and D3200 when I rang. Im looking for Canon as I already have lenses from an analogue camera.

          @polar:
          Yea sadly they sold the last of the boxed stock when I was in there this morning.

          They still had the floor stock if you wanted to take the risk?
          The Mount P store had one that looked like it was priced incorrectly, I was just in there.
          Nothing really good there, except for some action cams.

        You call thousands of products, a lack of stock?

        • theworks on 02/12/2015 - 14:55

          TA was pretty clear, he's getting PMs from staff because they're being abused for lack of stock.

        • mr kindface on 02/12/2015 - 14:59

          @theworks: but this definitely meets stock requirements for a deal. If there was less than 10 products over the whole of Australia then it wouldn't be a deal.

        • theworks on 02/12/2015 - 15:04

          @mr kindface:

          Which product had more than 10 in stock?
