Some Logitech Gear - 100% Cashback Via Online Redemption - Starts 1 Feb 2011

4040

Some Logitech Mice, Keyboards, Webcams, Headsets and Cooling Pads are able to claim 100% cashback from Feb 1

see the website here
http://www.logitechcashback.com.au

still not a bad deal - given that after cashback, you essentially get the product for free

The stickers are on ALL the products at Dick Smith Arndale - and on the sticker it says, "Purchase me and receive 100% cashback". The upload is a photo of the sticker itself. I got excited as I thought I could pick up a logitech steering wheel with the cash back, but upon upon further investigation, I can see that only a limited number of products are included in this deal.

Only applies to these old models but 5 per household is not bad.

M100 wired mouse
M215 wireless mouse
K200 keyboard
C200/C210 web cam
Clearchat style headset
MK250/MK260 wireless combo
N100/N120 cooling pad

(Thanks POWERevolution)

As at 30/01/2011 midnight, this deal has 2246 click throughs. Assuming others out there know about the deal, consider what happens if 3000 people have made purchases

$300,000 is available for the cashback. If there are just 3,000 customers, so far, who know about the deal, that's about $100 each.

So, just a heads up there is a chance you won't get a cashback

      • yep the moment people are required to pay more than nothing for something, their interest exponentially dwindles :)

        If it was say 90%, people would have sought better deals and only bought items they may have used.

  • i guess i was the laziest ozbargainer. From day 1 i knewi would be doing my shopping online. Had the items sitting in my cart on officeworks.com.au only 2find out 2day they are out of stock or backorder.

    decided to shop around on dicksmith but they didn't have m215's online so got those from jbhififor $19 each. All up:

    2x mk250
    2x m215
    1x n100

    All up $177.00 fully claimed.

    All this while sitting at home. Go internet power.

      hope you get the rebate for the duplicate products…

      • i will because i specifically asked and thanks for your concern.

  • +6

    That was fun.. went down at 11 to hardly normal, bargained down the price a bit, then claimed at the net cafe next door. :)then spent the day in the library (mmmm air conditioning)

    total cost: $1 for print out of claim form and postage :) (minus cashback of course :P)

    • -1

      bargained down the price a bit

      why ???

      • +10

        coz we are ozbargainers and want to save some $ for our fellows to have a chance too.

      • for fun? It's great seeing how low they are willing to go, and look at the plus side, more people get hte offer if each person paid less (In my defence DSE was the only store selling these products in my area, no OW/JB etc)

        • Postage cost me $3.55 as I sent it registered post. Don't want it to be "lost in the mail".

      • +3

        Because:
        1) This is Ozbargain, people cant help but bargain even if its 100% cashback
        2) A little less money to Gerry…

        • i got the MK250 from Gerry, he had it for $34, down from $49.95 already…

  • +1

    I guess the priority now is for Logitech to inform all retailers that the deal has ran out of money and encourage all staff to alert potential customers before they buy. That will be the best way to prevent people whinging to ACCC which I'm sure will happen anyway.

    Unfortunatley that only means that companies will not dare to run promos like these again. So complain, and no one gains anything.

    • I think Logitech stands to gain a lot from the publicity this has generated.

      • +1

        and lose, if things turn bad later on

    • "Unfortunatley that only means that companies will not dare to run promos like these again. So complain, and no one gains anything."

      how true for the future, but not so for the lucky buggers who snapped up the 300k in record time today!

      my figure of 50% cashback was just an example, my point was, at what figure do you think most ozbargainers would still shop around for the lowest price, 60%? 70%? 80% i think @90% most wouldn't be bothered on a stinkin hot day like today(Sydney) and just buy at any price

  • +1

    AWESOME DEAL

  • +1

    The longest discussion by far since I've registered. Good job guys :)
    I've put a couple of links up in the epic threads thing on the wiki :)

    • number 3 ATM in the records

    • if is lasted a little longer - then surely it would have ovetaken the free mugs deal and the cadbury hack for most positive votes. Damn you Logitech. Damn you to hell

      • It will overtake the mugs. Just a matter of time.

        EDIT: On second thoughts… probably not.

        • lol, i was about to say… not many people come to vote on expired deals :P

        • sad face

        • But if you remember the cadbury hack was not beating mugs last I checked (before today) but it got enough votes to beat it sometime after the majority of people left it.

        • idk, mugs is pre-registration/lurking for me :) Although I do remember both of those threads… I guess we'll see..

  • went to DSE as you can reserve the item. so you know when you turn up its there.
    didn't really have time to run around and try and find shops which had what i wanted.
    espcially in the city things sell out very fast!

    they did over charge my friend though was reaserve for $34.95 online and that's what the paperwork said but they charge him $50. he didn't notice was too busy trying to get back to fill in the claim form!

    • I reserved but someone took my cooling pad from out back but they gave me someone elses so it's all good. The other guy reserved like 3 of them anyway.

    • Thanks for alerting me!
      The MK250 was reserved for $34.95 (which is more than OW's $34 already). But when I picked up they charged me $49.95!

      Lucky this was 100% cash back. But heads up for the future! Check the purchase price vs reservation price!

      Shame on you DSE!

      • +3

        I did the same, and they charged me 34.95 as per reserved price of yesterday. And I actually added another 1 for friend in store 5 minutes later, initially they charge 49.95, but after I asked, she agreed to decrease the price to 34.95. I know it's cash back anyway, but it will reduce the risk if we fail to claim, as well as helping more people claim theirs. It's because of outrageous price of DSE (most of prices are double the OW), that many people missed out. How sad.

        • Yeh that's how I looked at it. The shops lifting prices, is just lowering the chances of no. of claims.

          Don't really like the practice of raising prices just so they can make more because they know about the promotion. They are getting more sales then they would have otherwise, that should be a bonus. Charging more means less people can claim. They are taking a chunk of the promotion reward that I thought was aimed consumers.

          Don't know if it was just DSE or any others, have only read a few posts.
          Kudos to the stores that didn't up the prices. Respect to you. You helped more people have a chance.

          I didn't bother with this as there was nothing I needed.

  • Took it to south strathfield, they told me it's all finished.

  • Well Done!!!

    and a Big Thank you to Flashi007

  • +3

    Some douche bought all 11 mk250's at kmart and 4 webcams around 1pm, I just wanted 1. Hope he didn't get home in time to claim them. All up he spent over $500.

    • +1

      He had 25 minutes to do 3 claims including the trip home. Doubt he got it in time. Unless he's Broden.

    • +6

      it was broden

  • hi,guys,just wondering i claimed my items in the morning,but i didn't print the claim form because i was using my phone. now i get home, anyone know how can i print the claim form which i couldn't find it. is the email from [email protected] ??? thanks guys

    • yea that's the email its from, i think the info in the email and the confirmation page are basically the same so should be fine - i called them up earlier today and they seemed pretty chilled out about things.

      • and they seemed pretty chilled out about things.

        That's because they didn't have to go shop crawling in 40°C temperatures in Melbourne CBD this morning !!!!

        • haha yea that's probably why - i was pretty shocked when a real person answered the phone though!

    • That's the one.

    • I suggest that you just print out your email ([email protected] is correct) as it contains the same info as the claim form. Maybe put a note explaining why you haven’t got the claim form.

  • thanks random123 & maybeamacy

  • Just noiced the page title for the FAQ section of the cashback site is still for the "Win $2,000 Every Day!" promotion :)

  • posted in wrong spot - was posting a response

  • i wonder what the ozbargain tally ended up being!

    • $292,764

  • Would DSE and others who raised prices just for this be breaking any laws?

    I bought the MK250 from DSE on Sat for 34.95,
    and today it was 49.95

    Were any of these above Logitech's RRP?

    • no, dse just sells at rrp. it must have been on special last week

    • RRP is "recommended" retail price. We live in a free market for most goods/services. Retailers can charge as much or as little as they like. Customers are free to shop elsewhere if they don't like a retailer/their pricing. Logitech (as a supplier) can't control the retail price for obvious reasons.

      • Of coz they can. Suppliers or manufacturers can control the price if they want to. They also control who you can sell things to - eg many manufacturers restrict products from being shipped oversease. Try buying things from the US.

    • What you're thinking of is when some retailers, take down sale signs before a % off sale or a save $x sale so you aren't really saving the true % off, which is illegal. Like what some Good Guys in QLD got caught doing. This is just changing the sell price of a product. However, if the product is currently being advertised at a sale price and they sell it for more than that, then action can be taken.

      It's not illegal to sell anything above RRP. It's stupid, but not illegal. Otherwise it would be a FIXED retail price, not RECOMMENDED.

  • The only thing the the local Retravision had was the M215 mouse.
    I paid the normal price of $49.95!
    HA.

    Claimed successfully.

  • i got 2 seperate receipts claimed, can i mail 2 seperate receipts in a envelope to them?

    • if you have 5 or fewer products in total, yes

    • i rang logitech earlier and they said it was ok to put multiple claims into a single envelope.

  • +8

    Now we have more reason to fix the "jump to new comments" Ozbargain feature over multi-page threads (for registered users), either that or please give us the option to have one long page so the new comment highlight works correctly ;-) (Ref: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/15980)

  • How long will it take to receive the refund back?

    • +1

      up to 28 days after it has been received and verified.

  • Those bastards at JB sell headset for $37, wtf?

    • DSE sold them for $39.95! Beat that!
      OW on the other hand sold them for $17.47.

  • tried to refund my unsuccessful cashback claim items at jb after work…
    but they refused to do so.
    are they right to do that? i thought they offer a 7-days refund period on all items right?

    anyone have any luck?

    • if they are unopened and you have the receipt, i don't see why they shouldn't

    • tried to refund my unsuccessful cashback claim items at jb after work…
      but they refused to do so.

      should have bought from DSE or OW
      they have relaxed refund rules

    • depends on what their refund policy is (i don't know). ring them or see if anything is on the website regarding refunds.

      found this:

      http://www.jbhifi.com.au/documents/corporate/_2010-12-01_1-0…

      30 day 100% refund for unopened packages according to the document.

    • Legally, they don't have to return a product for change of mind. However, since they have a written policy which doesn't list any exclusions, you should speak to a manager.

      They do list that the packaging has to be unopened and in good condition. Is it?

    • you just have to mention a magical word "ACCC"

  • Thanks flash007 for the great deal and also to logitech! I got an mk250, c200, and n100. There weren't any m215's. If anyone has one they don't need, feel free to send me one:p ozbargain rules!!!

    • I have one. How much are you willing to pay for it?

      • Well, you're getting it for free. If you don't need it, i was looking at a price of $0.00 including GST ;) PM/whim me if you're interested ;) Would really appreciate one of these.

        EDIT: I would pay about $8 for the shipping if you don't live near me(south western sydney), but I'm just a few months short of 18, so i don't have a credit card.

        • i was looking at a price of $0.00 including GST ;)

          LOL you must be dreamming!
          You got other 3 (mk250, c200, and n100) and still want more?

        • if you are willing to sell me the n100 for $8, i will gladly do it
          or swap M215 for N100 ;)

        • -1

          @POWERevolution In case you couldn't tell from the 'including GST ;)', I was being a little sarcastic. The fact that's it was only a minimal dose of sarcasm means there's still a slight chance of someone willing to give away unwanted items. And do remember that some people have sent items to relatives' addresses with the aim of collecting them for themselves, and some have bought more than one of the same item. Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled at getting 3 items for absolutely nothing.

          EDIT: You yourself got 5 items. Weren't you happy with just buying 3?? Exactly. Being ozbargainers, we all want to take full advantage of deals.

          @issh I'm enjoying the cool breeze of the n100 right now. Sorry :)

        • does the n100 work ok or is just suitable as a modem cooler?

  • I got mk250, c200, and m215. Happy to swap either of them for a N100. I'm in the ACT.

    • Sorry, I'm in Sydney :)

    I don't think this deal should be classified as "expired" yet
    as in T&C, if your mail does not arrive by 14 days after you claim, you will not get the claim

    but what i want to ask is,

    what happens to those who claimed and had their letters lost through mail and/or dud cashbacks, what will logitech do with the dud/lost cashbacks?

    Does logitech disregard them and mark then as non-cashback and put the balance back up or do they just leave the counter at $0, if they did add balance back up, for those who missed the deal, you could still have a chance(even though it is small, it still is a chance)

    • +2

      I don’t think this deal should be classified as “expired” yet

      hell no, i'm gonna break out the popcorn when the cashback rejection sob stories start coming in …

    • +1

      yesssssssssss … un-expire this deal so it can perch above the top gear deal within the "Top Deals"

      • haha lol
        i don't get it though
        Top Gear=281+
        This=369+
        yet yours is not in top deals

        • Expired deals are not included in the top deals list.

        • lol this deal is waaaay better than a crappy top gear magazine. can't you get them online anyway?

        • @ Livert

          no wonder

  • Harvey Norman is also declining refunds… specifically because of the cashback offer!!!

    • Are you sure? Did you open the box?

    • they are probably worried about people cheating the system (claiming cashback then returning), but since an original receipt is required i can't really see the problem. there's no way to get a cashback in 1 day.

      • But if the box is unopened and original receipt is produced can they legally refuse to refund?

        • who knows. they do advertise their policy. it's a bit unfair to turn around and then say no.

        • Apparently its store policy… I have original receipt and box unopened. Settled for credit note… what a jip!

        • +1

          well you know where to not shop next time :)

          i returned an extra headset to officeworks this afternoon. they didn't care.

        • +1

          The store manager even implicitly accused me that I had lodged the cashback and was just getting a refund and double dipping!! Thanks Harvey Norman

        • Hi Bazza236, which HN store did you buy from?

        • martin place NSW… had a previous poor experience with them before when a pre-order for a game (GT5) didnt come in.

          Definately don't recommend anyone go there - just go to DSE where they'll return anything

        • can they legally refuse to refund?

          they sure can, they have no obligation to refund an item because you changed your mind…

        • Well done bazza236, you've just secured a future for Gerry Harvey.

    • +2

      Be very careful when you shop at HN. You can return unopened goods that you bought for store credit only. And the credit can only be used for the same department as different department maybe belong to a different franchisee. Eg. you return the Logitech keyboard which is in computer department, then you can only use the credit in computer department and not other department. Please also note that the credit can only be used in that store and not other HN. Never spend your money there unless it's the cheapest and you really want the goods.

  • Got these @Dicksmith but to pricey…

    N100 $59.95
    MK250 $49.95
    Headset $39.95
    M215 $28.97
    K200 $19.95

    • now you know why woolworths always post record profits. i imagine the pricing on their groceries would be similar.
