Hey All

I'm looking to buy a new Samsung S9 64gb (black or blue). Is there any reason to pick Australian stock over a grey import? And where would the best place to buy one be? eBay seems to have a few but they look dicey, I imagine they're refurbished being sold as new?

EDIT: I have access to the enhanced partnership program through work and can get it for $960 so hoping to beat that price.

Thanks

Chris

  No local warranty for grey imports. In fact I have read stories where Samsung will not even repair for a fee with grey imports.

  Hi mate,

  Tobydeals have Samsung Galaxy S9 Blue 64GB for $749 -
  I have heard of people in the past getting Officeworks to price match to Toby deals so you could try that and with adding in Officeworks price match discount you'd be looking at a total of $711.55.

  Best of luck, Josh.

    OW wouldn't match that as it's not like for like. The model you linked is for the S9 with dual SIM - which is an import

      Depends on who you speak to. I've done a price beat on single sim where the other was a dual.

  Try the OW pricebeat or have a look at mobileciti. They have one of the best prices out. In terms of grey imports the only con is if you have any problems Samsung won't touch the phone at all.

  Don't suppose you have price protection on your credit card?

    does that work with purchases outside Australia?

    I just checked mine: Coles MC. Apparently it has to be bought in Australia :(

    Merchandise Protection
    How does it work?
    If you buy an item in Australia for more than $10 with your Coles Mastercard and within 6 months of its purchase the item is lost, stolen or damaged,
    we’ll pay to your account, at our option, either:
    • the original purchase price, or
    • the cost of repair or replacement.
    This also applies to items bought for someone else as a gift.

  Following this thread as I am definitely looking to purchase a S9 in the next few weeks. Wonder whether Boxing day sales will be good this year…

  suppose source from the dropship supply, usually,. they provide the 7 days without reason refunding or returning goods. so, you can check the goods within 7 days. and they offer also the ebay alike price too.
