Qantas store has recently finished QC35 II deal and added this XM3 deal with 30% off points.
Not as cheap as GGC deal but good price for those with spare qantas points right now. Use 2000 points + $339.90 or 61000 points.
Available in Silver and Black.
Sale ending on 20 Dec 2018, while stock lasts
Update 18/11: Back in stock.
The king is dead, long live the king!
Damn, I got QC35 on Qantas store using my points yesterday thinking this Sony one probably wouldn't go on sale for a while given how new it still is. Would have preferred the Sony one over QC35
Yeah, I moved to the QC-35 after my Sony's 1000x hinges broke. Have regretted it ever since. Just doesn't compare :( Consdiring getting these nwo and selling my QC35s now.
only advantage of the QC35's for me is it's smaller and better microphone, otherwise sony's top imo
ask them to swap - tell them how much you love quantas
quantas
Might help to spell it right though ;)
Damn. Once the Qantas store selling them at these low prices, you know prices have fallen
TGG? You required commercial membership, not available to everyone.
Wonder how long before these reach $300?
is it TRS able?
Should be. I have purchased from qantas store with points plus cash and have claimed TRS
Yes it is - I TRS'd the previous Qantas Store purchase using the order confirmation email which doubles as your tax invoice (has the ABN). I too paid with 2k points as well.
Yup, claimed TRS on this headphones 3 days back. Purchased them at the end of Sept when it was $418 + 2000 points. Grrrrrr………
Noo.. the BDAYOCT18 code expired yesterday :-(
this code didn't work when I bought last week.
Was your birthday in Oct?
Edit: apparently I'm wrong
Sony really trying to knock out bose. I like it.
Is this the cheapest it's been so far? I'm looking at getting it for $307.28 as I've got like 8000 points I don't need. Would this be a good buy or should I do the 2000 points instead? Is the dollar value good compared to flight upgrades?
8000 points well spent I reckon. I bought XM3 with full 61000 points as Qantas points are easy to rack up these days.
Thanks OP. Got one for myself. Happy days:)
Does anyone know how long it takes to deliver from Qantas store to Sydney?
A couple of days. It usually comes from JB HI fi.
thanks
For real? From JBhifi, does that mean Toll are involved. Sadface.
Purchased this today. Delivery address is Sydney City.
Item status: Processing
Estimated delivery 09 November 2018
thanks
Did you receive yours? or tracking?
I placed my order 1Nov, this morning tracking shows on bard for delivery today, but I haven't received it yet, and no updates on tracking too.
Not yet, I do have tracking and estimate delivery from shippit said 2 business days so hopefully it will arrive tomorrow.
received today
My Bose have pretty bad lag when playing games.
Do the Sonys also have this problem?
The sound lag is because of bluetooth. You'd have to hook them up with an audio cable to remove the delay.
It also depends on the headphones, phone and chipsets involved too. I get almost no perceptible lag on some bluetooth headphones, but noticeably more on others.
If you have a device with AptX.LL, it should reduce the lag somewhat. But if you're using good ol' SBC/AAC, there will be perceivable lag. Good old fashion 3.5mm will also remove the problem.
Does both the headphones and the device need AptX.LL to reduce lag or just the headphones?
Both
Woo - Managed to stack it with the Qantas Birthday Voucher: BDAYNOV18
For a total of $304 + 2000 points. WooHoo!
Sold my old pair of Bose QC35 for $250, so the upgrade was a no brainer.
seems like a generic code? maybe everyone can use
Birthday Voucher: BDAYNOV18 - is this targeted?
I just tried on an account with bday today and it didn't work.
"You are not eligible for this promotion"
.
Yeah I guess it must be targetted :(
My birthday was in Oct, so I missed out by one day :-(
Imagine all those people with bdays in December and will hold out for a hope of a code while these baby's sell out.
It’s my bday this month too. I got an email from qantas but only qantas wine and double points dining offer.
Can you explain how you qualify for this voucher?
Thanks OP. Finally pulled the trigger on a pair of these cans!
That is awesome - thank you just pulled the trigger as well. I had a 6,000 points and I transferred these to my wife who had 11,000 so I got these for $254 delivered…
2000 points = 2000 bucks spend!
Some of us are earning bonus points.
What does 61k of QFF points equate to in dollar terms?
$610
Roughly $330 worth of JBHiFI gift cards
Going rate is 1.25 cents per point, so 61,000 QF points is roughly $750+.
Wow. Whoever is paying that, get in touch with me!
Check out the OzB classifieds. Dudes have been getting as much as 1.3cpp. It's a sellers' market. I sell all my points on here. Have raked in over 15k this year.
@Lunarboogie: Why are people doing this? I have well over 230K of points and want to buy these headphones…. now I'm just torn…
For those who already have the headphones, there are some decent Weber BBQ's to blow your points on that are also on sale (also happens to be OZB favourite BBQ!):

This or QC35 ii?
This is better than the QC35II in every day except for multi-point connections.
Thanks OP. Had about 6K points lying around doing nothing so got the headphones down to $315ish. Going O/S in a month too so will claim TRS. Pretty much on par with TGG deal so appreciate the post.
happy to have helped!
I have over 10k points but ended up bringing down the price to $300 so I can claim TRS. Awesome deal! Extra bonus I got them in Balck which is hard to get right now.
Copped. Bit concerning that Qantas Store order confirmation email does not contain reference to neither brand name nor model name. Hoping they don't send XM2 instead.
The site mentions flagship.
Also, the confirmation email contains a link to the product page and the product URL has the model number (1000XM3) in it.
I got a broke in and my Sony 1000x got stolen last Saturday night. Got this one at $316 with 6k points today, thanks OP!
Sony has so many damn model numbers for this product. So is "WH-1000XM3B" the same as all the other WH-1000XM3 models?
Yes. The B is just for black. S for silver
did the price just jack up?
Still showing $339.90 + 2000 points for me. Note Click Frenzy today and tomorrow gives another 10% off at checkout ($304.76 + 2000 points) - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/415763
This is officially the new Eneloop
