    They are overpriced, it's still more expensive than amazon au after 15% off

    • pulsarlx07 on 19/12/2018 - 23:19

      making reference to a particular lens or just in general ?

      • TanedaR on 19/12/2018 - 23:58

        just for example, the popular D3500
        digidirect $658*0.85=$559.3
        https://www.digidirect.com.au/cameras/dslr_cameras/nikon_d35…
        Amazon au currently $524.46
        Not to mention you get 10% or 12% cashback very often

        • cheapo999 on 20/12/2018 - 08:56

          Don't compare to grey stocks.

          Digidirect is generally cheaper than most stores here in Aus. Pls don't compare local & grey stock, they need to pay tax that support Australians and employ staff to serve you.

          • TanedaR on 20/12/2018 - 10:04
            +9

            @itstuan: amazon au is not grey stock
            Have you guys checked before you comment or vote me down?
            Just do your research
            It's sold and shipped by amazon au with Aust warranty, not amazon us, not 3rd party.
            I have been waiting for the best timing to buy 2 particular models and keeping an eye on the prices
            The retail price of both model from digidirect are 10% higher than JB, HN etc
            while it may be cheaper after 15% off, I am sure there will be boxing day bargain in other stores as well

            plus there is always 20% off on ebay and 10% off gift cards

              • TanedaR on 26/12/2018 - 12:17

                @John: Sorry, it's $478 now. $80 cheaper than digiDIRECT
                +you get $47.8 cash back

            • shawnsmaggot on 25/12/2018 - 17:37

              @TanedaR: Amazon may not necessarily be grey stock - although in some cases local/Australian manufacturer warranties do not apply to goods purchased on Amazon but that's another topic

              Twentyone makes a good point about tax though; that of tax/tax avoidance by the 'larger' companies like Amazon. Amazon is notorious for their disgusting tax avoidance and profiteering. I know we're all here looking for a bargain but if the price offered by a smaller local (or even international) retailer is similar to the international/national behemoth retailers then it's not a bad idea to support the smaller, more ethical retailer - that tax funds the roads, healthcare and education.

        • eggboi on 20/12/2018 - 10:27

          Lolol. The D5300 is a “camera”, not a camera.

          • tencents on 26/12/2018 - 23:29

            • eggboi on 27/12/2018 - 01:02

              @tencents: If your measuring stick for a storewide pro camera gear sale is a d5300, you’re doing it wrong

      • jerum3030 on 21/12/2018 - 18:54

        Aputure 120d is about $1220 with them whereas closer to $1000 on eBay

    • MissKitty on 19/12/2018 - 23:21

      Depends what it's for. For the Fuji stuff I want DigiDirect is cheaper.

    • Frankiijayy on 19/12/2018 - 23:40

      Take the 15% off and then another x amount for cashback and surely you're now saving. This is not even bringing in TRS.

      • Daabido on 25/12/2018 - 16:55
        +2

        Am I missing something; what does TRS got to do with it? Any retailer including Amazon that sell directly will be applying the GST. I must be a pleb too, because I am not on constant standby to fly overseas to claim TRS!

    • eDust on 20/12/2018 - 10:22

      Some items are competitively priced. Then 15% off makes it a good bargain.

    • Danthemanz on 25/12/2018 - 17:38

      If $500 on a body is expensive and you obviously haven't bought anything decent lenses (cause Digidirect it's probably the best price/service retail chain in Australia), then you probably wouldn't appreciate Digidirect anyway.
      +1 for 15% is years of the 10% they often do every 6 months.

      Just a pity the Sony A7 and GFX are excluded, though my wife is probably greatful ;)

    • Winston100s on 26/12/2018 - 12:02

      I don't know what is going on with this negative vote domino effect. You are spot on. I got a Nikon 14-24 2.8 lens from Amazon for 1709, before any cashback. Digidirect are selling it for $2378. That is nearly $700. Would any of the down voters tell me how that isn't overpriced or maybe digitdirect employees are the ones downvoting?

  • Dost on 19/12/2018 - 23:20
    +7

    I haven't found them to be overpriced. At the moment, they are selling the Panasonic G9 for the cheapest price in Australia, for example.

    • lawyerz on 20/12/2018 - 13:20

      i guess there's no chance of the g9 25% off stacking with another 15% off is there? One can only dream.

  • thelastnoob on 20/12/2018 - 00:11

    There will be exclusions from this

    • johnno07 on 20/12/2018 - 09:20

      Almost certainly Sony will be excluded again :(

  • John on 20/12/2018 - 00:45

    They are ok priced. And probably the best when it comes to price matching based on me and my friends experience.

    • netsurfer on 26/12/2018 - 12:55
      +1

      Not my experience, maybe it is staff dependent. Asked a staff to price match Michael's. Staff was rude and basically said just go and buy it there. Price difference wasn't big.

  • THEMAN_AUS on 20/12/2018 - 01:03

    we'll see. Here's hoping does 20% site wide.

  • hdieu on 20/12/2018 - 01:16

    are preorder items included in the sale?

    • kampret on 20/12/2018 - 09:11

      My question too. Thinking to purchase DJI Osmo pocket (pre-order) with this 15% off.

      • jerum3030 on 20/12/2018 - 15:05

        perhaps the bmpcc 4k too? Videopro and videoguys seem to already have it…?

      • hdieu on 24/12/2018 - 23:30

        dji products are excluded. I'm after a Sigma lens and it's excluded too..

      • sleepy buyer on 25/12/2018 - 13:40

        George's Camera have Osmo pocket on sale 10% off at $539.10

        • jerum3030 on 25/12/2018 - 16:37

          Avoid. Has troublesome setup via app. Has a poorly located usb port and other dud features. Get a GoPro silver and flash it

            @jerum3030: Are you going to sell yours, mate? Given this level of dissatisfaction I'm expecting the best deal of a used DJI pocket :)

        • [Deactivated] on 26/12/2018 - 12:23

          … and DigiDirect will price match Georges.

    • jerum3030 on 25/12/2018 - 19:05

      Yeah I'd like to "pre order" an Atomos Ninja V.

      Strange a lot other Aussie places have it already?

      Can't seem to find any find print about the 15% of sale that might have something about pre orders

  • browser on 20/12/2018 - 03:13

    Z6 + 24-70/f4 is currently tempting. But will stick with the D810 for awhile.

  • Charity on 20/12/2018 - 04:16

    Everything seems to be cheaper on Fleabay (at least the Canon gear) even factoring in 15% extra off. Can also get min 5% off ebay anyday of the week too.

    Lol… just noticed they are selling a dinosaur 1DX (yes, Mark 1 not 2) for $7 grand and change!

  • PlushToys on 20/12/2018 - 05:54

    i expect a 'excludes all sony items'

    • ozlab on 20/12/2018 - 06:40

      If not then price match at Sony kiosk and use amex cashback if you have.

  • neonlight on 20/12/2018 - 06:39

    How are they for lens? Overpriced?

  • ozlab on 20/12/2018 - 06:47

    eBay 20% is better deal using 10% off gift card

  • aja12 on 20/12/2018 - 08:47

    Just a heads up, and probably not going to be an issue for most people, but there is a thread on Digidirect over at Whirlpool discussing the practice of back ordering products that the website indicates are in stock. The thread is full of back and forth “discussion”, but there are a few people that have ordered in stock items from Digidirect and then waited a month or more for delivery.

    • Randolph Duke on 21/12/2018 - 01:01

      I’ve never had an issue personally, and have bought quite a bit of gear through them. Have seen that discussion on WP

    • syousef on 21/12/2018 - 10:32
      +1

      If you want to be sure it's in stock, call them before ordering.

      • aja12 on 22/12/2018 - 09:24

        If you want to be sure it's in stock, call them before ordering.

        Some of the complaints on the Whirlpool thread relate to people calling and being told that something is in stock when it’s not.

  • tightm8 on 20/12/2018 - 08:55

    Digi Direct usually have the lowest price in Australia (without an eBay sale in place), I find they generally are more friendly and good to deal with compared to Teds or George's.

    Having said that, pairing this 15% off with the current Sony A7rIII deal ($500 Cashback) you can grab yourself a bargain. I'm in the market for a Samyang 14mm.

    • cheapo999 on 20/12/2018 - 08:58

    • poohduck on 20/12/2018 - 09:14

      Yes, and hunting bottom dollar does have consequences - look at jetstar. If these guys are reasonably priced and good service then that is a good balance.

    • ankor on 21/12/2018 - 01:01

      The ppl in the Brisbane store are very friendly.

  • MrBillions on 20/12/2018 - 11:31

    If anyone's looking to pickup a Fuji XT2, it's going for $1100 at the moment on the website.
    20% off, as well as the $350 cashback Fujifilm Australia is promoting!

      Sony RX100 series are easy to use and very good. Depends on your budget too though.

      • tallkid123 on 25/12/2018 - 16:35

        My wife got the RX100 VI.

        Get yourself the Sony selfie-stick/tripod and away you go.

    • stickymoo on 25/12/2018 - 16:29

      I am after the same.
      Preferably with articulating/ selfie screen, mic input, good video & connectivity.

      • jerum3030 on 25/12/2018 - 16:41

        Yeah as above the rx100 iii would be good for photos and video.

        However be aware point and shoots are becoming obsolete, if not already, by decent smartphones.

        • stickymoo on 25/12/2018 - 23:12

          Black Friday sales had the RX100 ii for $350 without stacking any other offer/ discounts.

          It would be nice to see that again or a really good price on the iii or IV

    • snep on 25/12/2018 - 17:45

      If you haven't already I would check out DPreview's high end compact comparison (https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/buying-guide-best-pocketabl…). I have a first generation RX100 and it has served me well. Almost all the complaints I have about that model (slow lens on the telephoto end, average low light performance, no EVF) have been rectified on the new models by now. They are expensive though. To alleviate that I would personally go for a slightly older model (maybe gen IV/V). Of course there are plenty of options from other brands too.

  • John on 24/12/2018 - 19:46

    Sale is already active. Some exclusions from their website
    .
    All Sigma, DJI and Eizo products
    Sony: A7 III, A7R III, RX100 VI, HX99, WX800 and all Sony lenses
    Fujifilm: GFX-50R, GFX-50S and all GF lenses
    Canon: cine range including cine lenses and C300 II, C100 II and C200
    Leica: M10-D, Leica Q, Leica Q-P
    Tamron: 28-75mm (Sony E mount)
    RØDE: RØDECaster Pro and RØDE NT-SF1

    Having said that A7III is showing as $2668 which is not too bad

    • nafe on 25/12/2018 - 08:01

      Tempted to grab a Feiyu Vimbal 2 - down to under $75 with the sale, could be fun to play with.
      Any camera gear I bought in their last 15% sale about a month ago. Wasn't in stock, but was shipped for free and quite quickly (about 10 days from order placement).
      I've spent over $30k with them over the years, never a problem, the guys in store are always helpful for me.

  • stickymoo on 25/12/2018 - 16:24

      edit: Looks like drones excluded also. T&C makes mention of Clearance sale so I suspect they're just moving old shit nobodies been buying.

  • bbourizk on 25/12/2018 - 18:01

    Some Nikon lenses are excluded as well.

    A good deal for the 200-500mm…great lens for wildlife and with discount and cashback can be had at a great price.

    Am I the only person annoyed that they call it a "storewide" sale but with such a long list of exclusions?
    Isn't this some sort of bait and switch tactic? Luring people to their site with a promise of 15% off storewide only to find a lot of products are not discounted.

    Should've been called 15% of selected products.

    • oz-dave on 26/12/2018 - 10:35

      I just mentioned that to a digidirect staff member and even they agreed it was misleading.
      I guess the laws about deceptive conduct just aren't enforced enough for digidirect to even care?

      Then again, even this post is deceptive as it currently stands - the heading should say something like "Many exclusions apply"

      • snvl on 26/12/2018 - 11:55

        They also ended early the 25% selected items promotion to start this one. Pretty lame
