Cheapest Australian store prices I can see are
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - $64
Zelda BOW - $79
Making the cost of the switch itself either $455 or $440 depending on which game you chose.
Not much of a saving, Switch is $469 at Target and Mario Kart $64 = $533.
Could get it cheaper on Target eBay with C5OZ (5% off code) = $506.35 but they are both out of stock at the moment. Have to wait for a better eBay code and get it from Kogan/Gamesmen which are a bit more expensive or until Target get stock again.
Cheapest Zelda is $75.05 with C5OZ code
With my staff discount card I can get it 493.05. It's tempting for sure, but without confirmation of a wearer SMT V release or a paper mario game resonant with the RPG 64/GameCube mechanics I can't bare to drop almost 500 on it.
BOTW for me is a must play, but it's going to have to wait :/
Even with staff discount, It doesn't seem likely Big W is going to even close to the lowest price this EOFY.
That's why I'm holding out. Let's hope the lowest price is in store, as BigW price matches and my discount stacks
They stack your staff discount with a price match?! Is BigW currently looking for network engineers?
How does the family And friends discount work? Is is a code?
Basically an everyday rewards card that gives 5% discount (10% sometimes but not lately). It's exclusive for Woolworths employees and discounts are given at BigW, BSW and a few others.
half a thousand dollars
is this how you say $500 IRL?
That's over forty dozen dollars! Outrageous!
forty dozen dollars is 480 though! xD
From someone who's been keeping track of the Switch deals since the start of EOFY sales (As I planned to buy one during them a few months back).
This is a pretty standard big box price at the moment, really not too big of a deal IMO.
Kogan had the console for $375 just 2 weeks ago, few Australian retailers have had it up with ebay codes in the $400 mark.
Since I'm watching so closely, if anyone else is waiting to pull the trigger, let me know and i'd be happy to DM you when I've found something.I've been keeping any eye as well. Definitely message me :)
Put me on that DM list please!
DM's are off for you, deal up in new deals if interested
yeah me too please! I want the Neon version, I almost buy the bundle (NSwitch Neon) with Mario Kart at target to 472 or something similar… I should have bought it.. it was a good price I think..
Nearly all of you have DM's off -> Here's the copy pasta from my DM's.

Dm please !
Sadly I cannot notify you all, rofl, but to the ones who have replied here, you're all on the list. I thought I'd do some clarification since many started to DM to make sure they were on the list.
You guys have now forced extra responsibility on me somehow!
..At your mercy, love from dfaktz.
Went with the 15% ebay sale :) thanks
Yep, gonna message everyone, So did I, even though I'm not 100% itll be lowest.
hey, i've been looking round but if you find any good prices, be sure to let me know!
Well, as you can see above, there's a %15 ebay code atm and that thread is exploding with people starting to purchase stuff worried they will hold out too long and miss it.
Hell, I've brought everything I wanted (about 2k) except the switch in hopes of a special 20% ebay code that includes nintendo switch sellers orr.. the BigW toy sale a few people are 'guessing' about but by my calculations, that would be past EOFY? I dunno.. Grr.
Will let you know, though >.<
ahaha thanks man, good advice!
A BigW employee said that this 519 deal was going to be in a future catalogue? maybe they are going to advertise the deal properly as it's not in my local store. that might be the toy sale Switch
@kurtles: https://www.bigw.com.au/bigw-catalogues#view=catalogue2&sale… yep, just the same price :(
I bought my console at 380. Any higher i wouldnt bother.
Yep sub $400 is the sweet spot for me
I'm waiting for an in store retailer rather than online. I hate dead pixels and I'm not dealing with return shippings. Even if it costs 10-20 extra the ability to drive 5mins to the shops for returns is enough to warrant he price
Big W toy sale is only a few weeks away. I would think it would be cheaper then
I do hope so. I really wish we could get some real insider info here.
tfw the toy sale just actually advertises this deal :(
well hey, at least mario kart and the pro controller are fairly cheap
This has been the current price at BigW for the past month. This is really no deal. Also it is cheaper to purchase the Zelda bundle and buy Mario Kart 8 separately as Mario Kart is cheaper than Zelda.
This is the RRP for the bundle. There is honestly no savings here.
What's the recommended retail on these items separately? Seems expensive seeing as many Switch Consoles on Ozbargain are going for around $400
