Canon IXUS 130 Compact Digital Camera $189 from Harvey Norman

71

Just bought a Canon Ixus 130 camera for $189 from Harvey Norman.

My local goodguys in Glynde, SA had a special on them for $199 (stock only) and offered a cash price of $189. I wanted pink though, and only pink one left was display model.

Went to Harvey Norman, and they matched it after going through a few levels of people. New one in box.

reg price on box $319. Have receipt of course, but that's alot of effort to scan and upload! Shouldn;t need it, as they didn'e even call the GOod Guys to check.

  • +1 for nice deal, ++1 for awesome username

  • Not a huge bargain, the RRP is the price it was when released. I bought the same camera from harvey norman Knox advertised for $189 in Nov 2010,

      WELL!!!! You should have told me about it then, because I have been patiently waiting for this camera to go below $200. So next time, don't forget to tell me!!! ;-)

      It's great you got that price but I agree with the OP, not much point to your post when you couldn't be bothered posting it at the time you got it.

  • Good price :)

    However the photo quality of the IXUS is something left to be desired (especially when compared to a $80 camera):

      I had the IXUS 120 and was pretty happy with the picture quality, low-light performance wasn't the best but then that's not a surprise from a point and shoot.

      • Whoops I didn't mean to say the photo quality is bad.

        By no means it isn't. However, I was just pointing out that a $74 Canon Powershot A495 delivers better photo quality (hence with the link above for comparison shots). :)

  • I have loved all my Canon ixus cameras! So I hope this one isn;t terrible. I especially like the color accent feature, as I an USELESS at gettign around to doing the same thing using computer software…..

    How about u take a picture of the receipt with ur new camera :) then upload!

    • Charging the battery, then I will snap a pic and upload. :-)

  • i think i prefer IXUS 210. any deal on IXUS 210?

  • IS the deal here, that I go to HN and tell them (lie) that I got quoted a price of $189 at Goodguys? What if my local HN do call?

    • They never do.

      They can either sell it to you at the price you want, or can't and will tell you so.

    • Seriously? Negative?

      • just upload the receipt and they will revoke the neg to pos hehehe
