    The receivers are currently doing what they can to liquidate all stock in a "limited" period of time. What this means for us is that the receivers cannot "wait it out" and hold onto stock, if stock is not sold at their targeted rate per week etc.

    The receivers would have previously mapped out a strategy of discounting say a further 10% each week on brands to clear out all stock (20% now, 30% off in a week's time, 40% off in a fortnight).

    If we artificially ensure that the receivers do not meet the sale targets each week then it increases the possibility of larger percentage discounts further down the track to ensure all stock is sold.

    Ideally we would contract with each other not to purchase from DSE in the next fortnight but the best thing we can do is have in the back of our mind that no matter what item we are hunting, all stock will be at its lowest price the day before DSE ceases trading.

    tl;dr - try to buy from DSE as close to the cease trade day as possible.

      They a phasing out store closures though so it will be difficult to tell exactly when in the next 8 weeks the local store will close.

    • MerlinsEgo on 28/02/2016 - 14:29

      Totally agree Mark .. need to wait until sweat starts to accumulate under the receivers brow .. but i doubt the bargains will be what they want us to believe. They probably would offload to a Grays or similar if time runs out.

      isnt that collusion is it legal? also how can you artificially ensure the receivers not meet the targets? I was many people in the shop.

  • [Deactivated] on 27/02/2016 - 21:41

    A liquidation sale with only 5% off on apple macbooks? Not sure who is worse Dick or the Dicks Liquidator.

  • ExPrinceHairy on 27/02/2016 - 23:01

    Yeah sorry Dick Smith, no deal. Lumia 640 - claimed as "20% off", but it was the same price before the liquidation (and only $20 more in August 2015).

    • kevkay on 28/02/2016 - 09:57

      Same deal with the Kindle Voyage. $300 last year and it went down to $269 this year and now it's still $269 with the 20% off deal..

    • unity1 on 28/02/2016 - 16:18

      I've seen the Lumia 640 for $160. Dick is $109 more expensive.

    One final dick move I see… prior to this deal the S5 was $570. Today with "20% off" it's $527

  • strangeloops66 on 28/02/2016 - 12:36

    A blonde is out shopping in town when she sees in the shop window a nice TV. So she walks into Dick Smith and asks if she could buy the TV and the manager says "I don't serve to blondes".

    So she walks out, dyes her hair red, walks back into the shop, asks if she can buy the TV and the manager says "I don't serve to blondes"

    Really angry now, she walks out, dyes her hair brown, changes her skin colour to black, changes her eye colour to brown, buys a moo-moo, puts it on, changes her shoes, walks back into the shop, asks if she could buy the TV and the manager says "I don't serve to blondes"

    The blonde says "How the hell do you know I'm a blonde"

    The manager says "Well that's a bloody microwave!"

  • Talsek on 28/02/2016 - 14:27

    Was told in store today that a lot of tags aren't updated and the prices don't have the 20% discount applied unless its explicitly stated with a ticket.

  • first in line on 28/02/2016 - 17:23

    checked out the store today, the sale is a joke. Horrible stock, no bargain to be had.

  • 4892 on 29/02/2016 - 00:57

    So I haven't read every comment but has anyone noticed the current deals on the website (% off sales for specific categories) has an expiry of 29/2/16?

    This can only mean that a further discount will be applied after this date yeah? Surely it won't go back up to full price :P

    I checked a store the day before the sale, looked at a few items I was interested in but had no idea what % off they would be. The items such as TV's and hard drives are either the same ticketed price or ever so slightly less than they were before the sale. So I thought I would check click and collect stock levels for these items and they were all sold out. Either people are buying up the sale hype that is a sham or something is not right.

    • puffinfresh on 29/02/2016 - 01:44

      Lifehacker is reporting that prices will drop every Thursday. The 29/2 expiry could mean that prices will drop sooner. I certainly doubt they will go up. There's always the option that the same sale will start on 1/3, so prices could stay the same until Thursday. Time will tell.

      • 4892 on 29/02/2016 - 03:23

        Don't get me wrong, it's a very smart approach. The Saturday when the leaked fire sale started and there was next to no bargains left still had stores busier than ever before and people walking out the door with goods.

        It can only last so long though until people realise it's all pretty much normal price. If they don't start discounting properly soon they will be stuck with a heap of stuff.

        Also due to there being items priced HIGHER than a week previous to the closing down sale I'm gonna neg this deal.

  • CVonC on 29/02/2016 - 16:26

    Samsung Galaxy Gear VR for $119.20 after 20% off $149 if anyone cares.

  • abc boy on 29/02/2016 - 18:07

    I am after a SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB A 9.7". On the website of DSE, it shows the price of $349. It is dearer than the everyday price of OW($328.00). That is what they call 20% off.

  • c0balt on 01/03/2016 - 18:32

    Is there a way to search deals by negative votes?

    This deal would surely have to be close to the top.

      Someone's not happy about negative Dick Smith talk, gone on a neg neg rampage.

        Evened it up.

  • zzyss on 03/03/2016 - 10:48

    So Lifehacker was saying that DS would be doing incremental increases to discounts each Thursday. Anybody been in to see if things have improved? Wife went to Carlingford this morning and saw nothing special. Will head across to Macquarie at lunchtime to have a look.

    • 4892 on 04/03/2016 - 04:56

      Yeah they upped the discount on mobile cases/accessories from 30% to 50% :/

      Lots of "not that great deals" have been actually selling so I'm guessing they will wait until the frenzy dies down.

      I have a friend who works there and they have POS for 90% off etc ready to go when instructed but that could be a fair few weeks away and most likely on the already useless stuff.

  • superforever on 04/03/2016 - 10:45

    I saw Vodafone version huawei mate 7 for $404 yesterday, not sure if it is a good deal.

  • britta on 06/03/2016 - 10:08

    Website now say 20% to 50% off

    • 4892 on 07/03/2016 - 07:37

      "It's a trap"

    • Wilkshake on 07/03/2016 - 08:52

      Website also has "Offer ends 11-Mar-16" on the items I've been watching.

      Forced alarm of bargains ending is forced.

    • zzyss on 07/03/2016 - 09:22

      The 50% stuff is all the cheap crap like mobile cases, cables, etc. as noted earlier. Was in the Macquarie store over the weekend - nothing of substance has had its discount increased.

  • avgbowlofpho on 10/03/2016 - 08:27

    No big sale, just the usual

    BTW Don't try and C&C I doubt you'll get it
