  • are they 100% cotton, or blended ???

    • +3

      Just spotted this, can confirm that they are a cotton, nylon and elastane blend. Will update to show this, thanks!

      • Hi oztrez,
        I ordered the wrong size. Is it possible to correct it? I've emailed the website asking for the size to be changed. Will it go through before the socks are shipped?

        • +3

          Possibly? I've alerted Customer Service to your request, and they are working on it now trying to get it changed :)

          EDIT: All orders for the day are now final. Thanks!

          I can't reply to your comment below, but thank-you!
          Without giving away my order number or personal details, I emailed them between 4:40-4:50pm.

          [edit] they've fixed my order. Appreciate the speedy reply, mate!! :D

  • +15

    A good buy for the family.

    a family of Men perhaps…

    • They're probably Cotton/poly blend. Teenagers will wear these, too.

  • +8

    socks?…Hardly Normal.

  • Are these socks any good?

    • +1

      Have got them in front of me, and they are decent. Most of the staff are buying them based on what we've seen, they aren't going to blow your mind but they do the job? Not sure what else to say

      • +13

        Can we use them for sock puppets ? :P

          lol it looks like you were quoting my comment. I don't want to know what is inside that sock.

        • +1

          @oztrez - good to see an employee there with a sense of humour lol

      • How did you get it so quick?

        • +2

          Sorry I've not yet got the go ahead to be an official spokesperson, but I'm working out of the BiG BUYS office here in Brisbane. I didn't post this deal but am just popping in to clarify any questions people have :)

      • oztrez, do they stay up?

        • Haven't put them through dozens of washes, but the brand is Bellview and they are traditionally a good quality sock. They stay up in the office… hope that answers your question?

        • +2

          I was hoping that they would stay up no matter where my ankles were.

  • I bit cheaper than from the manf. website. Manf. freight costs hard to judge as they quote on a per carton basis ($16/carton)

    http://www.socks.com/shopping/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=12&…

    • Hi Happy, checked out the link, and am not really sure how you are reaching the conclusion that it is cheaper from the manufacturer. You may have misunderstood their ordering process.

      • Read my post again. I am saying HN is a bit cheaper than the manf. (First word should've been "A", not "I").

        • I did misread, sorry happy! We're actually pretty significantly cheaper still, but thanks for keeping us on our toes :)

  • Manf. website shows 4 different colours (chocolate, black, navy, charcoal). What colour is offered here?

    • +1

      All of the socks are black, with coloured tops like the picture suggests. Red, grey, blue, um a yellowy colour and a greeny colour are the tops

  • +2

    gonna buy this and the chocolates for $5 shipping cap. =D

    • +1

      Did the same

    • +1

      I would have if I haven't of already bought the chocolates. :(

      Edit: nm, they added them to the order without any problems (as discussed below).

  • Good buy @ $1.25 each.

  • +1

    Wish they were ankle socks. I'm not walking around in these.

  • are these the socks that in some countries people wear on their feet?

    • +1

      no, these ones are all new

  • I'd order, but I've already ordered the chocolates. I order there was a way to add this to my one hour previous order.

    • +5

      I'm asking about this for you now

      EDIT: shoot an email to [email protected] with your contact phone number and we'll work it out for you

      • Thanks so much.

        • +6

          They called me 10 minutes after my email and added it in manually for $20. Great service

      • +3

        This response has generated quite a few emails, just wanted to let you all know we can only do this in a rare number of cases. Please be understanding and patient :)

      • +1

        Great customer services! I got a call only after 1 minute since I sent an e-mail and got a combined postage with the already bought chocolates.

    • Because I can't edit this, I need to be clear that orders cannot generally be adjusted, and are locked in after they are sent to our warehouse, so please review your order carefully before placing it. Thanks!!

  • Socks. lol

    • foot fetish ???

      • +1

        Harvey Norman sell socks. Whats next caviar???

        • +4

          lol, whats next, normal prices?

          …wow. the world would definitely stop spinning.

        • +1

          wouldnt mind a kevlar or two… =P

  • +1

    Note: These socks are made from a cotton, nylon and elastane blend.

    … after using 100% cotton socks, I can't go back to blends - they breath so much better

    • +1

      ditto - cotton only particularly when its hot. Other blends are toe jam factories.

    • Good feedback dlcx, I'll let the guys who buy stuff know :)
      EDIT: And gabon too!

  • +3

    These socks are usually 97% cotton….I'm sure 3% blend doesnt make that much of a difference?

  • +1

    Has anyone got any idea on how these work? Do they come with some sort of manual?

    Good deal, bought it with chocolate as well

    for a while, i thought mr gerry is selling the electronic version with auto cleaning, auto pull down, pee assist….

  • +1

    Socks? hard to believe it. Should it be a typo of socket for iphone or something like that?

  • +4

    Thanks mine all have holes in them! ordered :D

  • -5

    I would rather get less socks of a known brand for the same price after reading the article on where this cheap elastic comes from.. Any guesses .. Used co***** !!

  • +1

    I bought!
    and thanks to the others for highlighting the chocolates.. got that for wifey :)

    • +6

      i got the socks for the wife, and the chocolates for me…

      i hope she doesn't read this… :O

  • +1

    nice one, chocolates and socks, what a combo!

    I hate how I'm a size 10.5 though, which size socks do I buy??!!!? One of life's tough choices

    • +9

      go for size 11, they'll fit you after you finish the chocolates.

      • +1

        Went the other way, got the 6-10. Nothing worse than having a sock ankle half way up the calf.

        Hopefully my ankles won't become cankles after downing the chocolates.

  • +4

    so this is everything harvey norman wasn't, good customer service and cheap prices :D

    • +3

      We're definitely trying to focus on our service and are stoked you like it :)

      • +6

        You have done a great job at responding to to all the questions here :)

        • +2

          Thanks :)

        • I second cheng2008 and anthony!
          Keep up the awesome work, oztrez!!!

  • Or fly to America and get them for $1 a pair for a good brand ;)

    • Yea the prices in the US are standard for $US1 a pair or less - 6 pack Walmart Kmart Target etc 97%+ cotton (Elastic makes up the other odd 3%) . And people here have no idea how much we are being ripped off on socks and the quality and range, ie ankle up to full calf, is sooo much better.

      And they complain if an electronics/computer is 10% higher here…

      • +1

        Everything is expensive here. Everything…
        Most of the local deals here are just normal price in the US.

  • +1

    Cool

  • http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/30696

    not as good as rivers $1 per pair… have got enough from that 2 last a while :}

    • Thanks for pointing that one out wiz, the comments suggest there was an $8 postage, which would (only just) make ours the online winner, but it's good to know what's happening out there in the bargain world :)

  • Like most socks, there's elastic at the top, right? Enough elastic to make it appreciably tighter than the rest of the sock?

    Just that I can't stand that, there's very few socks that don't feel tight and uncomfortable.

    Have some great ones "diabetes foundation approval" for good blood flow (no elastic). Sure, it's a marketing crock, but theyre comfy. That stupid approval makes them expensive though.

    • Absolutely yes, I've got the socks in front of me and they are elasticky. I'll let the buyers know about your point, maybe we can get something happening for our "More BUYS" section? Thanks for the feedback :)

    • Hah thanks.

      Not expecting anything to happen there. I'm sure I'm just odd.

      • If people don't tell us we might never know! Circulation is SUPER important for diabetics so it's worth investigating :—)

  • +1

    Fantastic find, Thank you.

  • +1

    The socks are temporarily unavailable for sale, but due to a little bit more stock and the popularity they will be back on by 1pm today and will run until we run out :-)

  • Thanks oztrez- main link updated.

    • Thanks!! :)

    • +1

      Oh and whilst normally the deal is only 24 hours, this was kind of popular so we are opening it up for a couple more days. If you'd like to update the expiry you can push it back to the 15th :)

      • All done.

        • Legend :)

  • Hi oztrez,

    I bought the golf clubs on monday - it doesn't look like I will be home to collect them. Can I change the delivery adress so myself or someone else is available to sign for them?

    • Hi blackgoanna,

      That's a tough one that I can't answer, I would recommend sending your details to http://www.harveynormanbigbuys.com.au/ContactUs.aspx and asking our customer service team?

    • +2

      Depending on the postal method, but auspost and AAE simply take them back to your local depot and leave a card in the mailbox. On that card, you can give authority to someone else to collect. They just need to take the card with them.

      My local depot is open at 4am for collection, despite the fact they advertise 8.30-5pm monday to friday. And I think that's standard for depots (they advertise the storefront opening hours, but you do not need to collect from the storefront, they have a depot entrance for collection too).

      If it gets taken to a post office instead, it should be open for at least some of the weekend.

    Just ordered myself a set. Needed some new socks actually great timing!

  • +1

    I ordered mine on the 10th together with the chocolates, despite the $5 shipping cap they arrived in two seperate parcels. The socks are pretty good for $1 and should last me a while.

    • +1

      Happy to hear that you are happy! :-)

  • hope these are good!

  • +1

    Mine just arrived. Very good quality cotton blend - expect to pay around $10 in Department stores for a pair like these. Perfect for work and the kids have to wear black socks for school so they grabbed half a dozen each as well. Thanks oztrek!

    • Thanks for popping on and giving feedback! Happy to hear the quality is up to scratch :-)

  • +1

    Yeah got mine too, they look the goods. Well worth it as all my socks had holes in them and the fiance' had been pestering me to get some new ones.
