Will get cancelled once ozbargained, but hey might as well purchase and likely end up with an apology gift voucher.

Bet it was the cost price for the store.
If so, that's a nice profit margin…$153 is 15% of $1020, so they probably tried to discount by 15% but ended up discounting to 15% instead.
lol. another one GG. not gonna be wasting my time with them.
what's happened on previous experiences?
Previously, I just took out my popcorn =)
They don't honour deals…
Reckon they honour their deals but not their pricing errors.
They cancel and provide a gift voucher. Probably $10.
They screwup frequently, no idea why it is so hard for them to put some minimum price lock into their database to stop it happening.
What's the odds this will come through? I'm thinking about it just because.
Only chance is to try C+C and pick it up before it's cancelled.
Tried that and someone jumped in before me. Don't hesitate for even 5s!!!
Alright I did it. I'll update the comment with any updates
Update: No go unfortunately.
it says:
Warning!
No stores within 500km have stockPeople bought out every store within the 2mins this was up. Don't underestimate people's ability to jump on fake buys.
Also stock in Black!!!
Called my local store, they had stock (but the price was $1098) even though the website said no stock within 500km.
I mean you may as well but there's a 99.9% chance it gets cancelled.
pulled the trigger lets see what happens
Same. Will update
Saw 2 for C&C and then loaded 3s later and they were gone. (within 500kms)
Do stores have to award the price error?
it's a valid, legitimate question. why would you downvote..
and to answer your question, nope - they are not obligated to honour a pricing error (and they won't)
Same bought 2
You ordered 2. The sale isn't finished until the retailer agrees to the price and gives it to you.
Il update if i get mine, just put through my purchase
Do you have to honour the price at all ?
NO!
Didn't get the phone but got a $20 store credit
Yeah, but it'll potentially make you spend more on buying stuff you won't need.
Honestly, it could be a great tactic for companies to get more people in to their store.
Giving it a go! There was also a black one: https://www.thegoodguys.com.au/samsung-galaxy-note8---black-…
Ugh, if I was near a shop I'd try and get one and do pickup asap - would be an interesting gamble!
Update - tried to go to the Mile End store. They didn't honor it.
Lol what did they say
"We'll have to get in touch with the website team and confirm this"
aka it ain't gonna happen
Gerry’s keeping a close eye on this
Bought 2. One via pickup. One via online delivery.
Same.
Rang the store to see if my order is ready for pickup. Got a response to say that my pick up order is being cancelled.
You're not supposed to ring them.
Then they check the price.
Hahahaha herp derp
I didn't mention anything about price. I just asked if my order is ready for pickup. I quoted my order number and that is what the lady told me, without much hesitation, it sounded like the price error was already flagged in their system. I wanted to make sure my order is ready before I drive 30 mins to get there. I was hoping the store hasn't caught on and hopefully run the order through then like any other online order so that I can pick it up as soon as possible.
@geek001: Eh. If you got a C&C confirmation, you go there and get it and don't ask anything about it.
Would anyone be able to send a receipt with date on it and you purchased it from good guys.
Lol "probable". Mate you win the optimism award.
More like "most likely". But that still will not stop a typical Ozbargainer taking a punt, Lol.
Bought.
It's a typical pascal's wager.
SUPER EOFY deal :D
Not reallyLOL @ "No stores within 5000km have stock. Please select delivery instead or try a new location."
Delivery?
Nah, I can't be bothered, just found that funny. Also, I had chosen to block the ability of the site checking my location.
They can probably approximate your location within 5000 km accuracy.
Probably?
Bought one see how much gift card they will give out lol …
Didn't get Jack last time.
Good luck on the gift card
we should remove this post immediately so the chance for those already purchased to get it may be higher :p
OP should buy it without posting, should have more chance to get it.
I know ^_^
$5 delivery. No deal.
$5 off the $153 is 3.27%… consider it as credit card surcharge :)
They don't honor price errors usually… Especially not with this big of a difference. Don't waste your time.
We bought it for gift card …
Last time they didn't give gift cards, believe it was through eBay though…
They want to show a higher number of sales revenue before year end and they will happily refund in July …as Q1 they expect revenue dip
On books .they will certainly make their numbers or over achieve with this trick
Btw guys, the black one is still on sale for those that aren't smart enough to search for themselves. There won't be stock for that one though in a few seconds.
Anybody try with price match in JB HIFI?
Probably have better luck with officeworks.
bought one. not expecting much.
I didn't realise I had ordered the gold…

Hmm is it gone?
It never was…….
Randomly loading. Got it now
Web site not loading properly …
Do they usually offer voucher for price error ?
Lol, website is down
Bought one black. having a price error on both colours is really strange. Fingers cross.
Managed to order one black pick up, one gold delivery. The one in black seemed to still have stock to pick up. Highly doubt anything will happen but that's the fun of ozbargain.
site got ozbargained lmao
Alright I'm driving down now. Will let you know what happens
Update: Yeah no good unfortunately.
How'd it go?
grabs popcorn
Grabbed one. :D
Let's sit down and giggle until they refund.giggle at tchi6 if it can be believed!
Another way of ending the financial year with a profit.
- Gonna sell 100,000 of these for 100 bucks
- Close the books for the financial year 2018 in half an hour with a big profit.
- Refund everybody's money on Monday. No goods left the door. Happy shareholders.
Genious. :D
What is cost of good sold.
@g2420hd Nothing since the product isn't sold, its refunded in the next financial year so it pads the earning for this financial year.
TGG site getting hammered atm. Pages taking ages to load
Price is back up
Very quick to take my money but very slow to give it back!
From the Google ad, it's still $1098, lol.
Big shopping trolley pic on their page. NOICE!
Bought 2 black ones, on my way to pick them up. I'll let you know.
nothing to buy with a tenner there.
