Just received an email from PS Plus with a redemption code for this deal.
WH-1000XM3 is available at $329.97
Mod: Want a code? Request it in the Code Request/Giveaway Megathread
Been a member for 5+ years, spend $$$ on PSN games, and didn't get the code (I have been ticked for offers for a while).
Sigh.
Dont worry mate,,, in the same boat…
same here - super annoyed
Got one, thanks Op
Almost tempted to sign up to PS plus in the hope of getting a code! Got the damn AMEX offer saved on the cards :/
its not every ps plus member, I got offers for headphones and soundbars but WF-1000XM3. Guess it saved lol
lucky you! Wish someone would be kind enough to share their code!
Oh wait I just realised you get one code and it gives you access to all the deals… there goes my money :(
I never get these codes. Been on plus for 2 years
Bought 2, thanks OP! So win with Amex + TRS… around $150 each?
btw for those who curious, 1 code let you buy as much as you want.
Get your Amex confirmation email?
not yet, probably after hours?
I went over $500 using delivery if that helps, checked TnC none said that delivery is not eligible as part of the cashback, so should.. went through.
Buying two comes to a total cost of $499.90 but the Amex offer requires a $500 spend? What am I missing?
Dont log in to your account mate. Just add the items to your cart and it will add a shipping fee
Literally copy paste'd from receipt:
Sub total $499.90
Delivery $6.00
Total (Inc. GST) $505.90 (This over $500 right?)
that should work mate.
Gotcha, great news! Thanks
This deal is like that scene from Willy Wonka if Charlie Bucket opened a golden ticket to cheap headphones, and every ozbargainer in the shop wants a piece.
Anybody know how to bypass the $499.90 for the Amex offer? It's spend $500 or more, not spend close to $500 or more and get $150 back.
I have the PSPlus code and Amex offer ready to go.
Dont log in to your account mate. Just add the items to your cart and it will add a shipping fee
The shipping is waived with the PSPlus Code.
even when you are logged out??
Log out of the account. Don't sign in. Add cost of shipping.
@Heybargain: Worked! Thanks y'all. Hopefully we get the Amex confirmation, others haven't gotten it.
I have PS plus and more than happy to give this code away but I cant see any promo emails
nm lol
Hey mate.. maybe check your spam folder. some people have got it in their spam.
If you do get a code, would you be kind enough to PM me?
Haha no email in my spam box. If I get it I will post it here in the public area sorry man :)
No worries dude. Dont apologize when you are looking to help :)
So I have checked the email of a family member who has PSPlus, but they don’t have a code - is there somewhere else I should be looking? Already checked the spam folder. I hope its not targeted to only some subscribers.
I’m all ready to buy but just need the code!!
What's the deal with these? Are they better than airpods for phone calls?
Built in wireless noise-cancelling (which the Airpods don't have)
not very good for phone calls according to some reviews. music video are fine.
Does ShopBack work with this? Because I completely forgot about it…
Should do.
WTB some common sense
This is a new strategy by the corporates, dishing out discounts to targeted audiences, before the discounted prices become the norm. We saw samsung doing it before with (EPP and student discounts) in case of S10e. In a few weeks time ~$250 will be public price.
you're joking right?
should we take you're word on it?
don't think these earphones will ever fall to that price publicly
WH-1000XM3 Sony price = $549, public price = $350, (oz)bargain price= $299
WH-1000XF3 Sony price = $399, public price (soon) = ~$250, (oz)bargain price= ?
It's all marketing my friend.
yeah aight
will wait and see hopefully can jump the gun and grab one at that price
these things are in high demand
2 of my friends have PS Plus memberships and neither of them have received any codes yet :(
Still hoping one of them gets a code to combine wiht my AMEX offer!
Yeah same, not sure why some people got the code while others didn’t. Hope people with codes do somehow see the title and come to the classifieds section
Me either :(
anyone notice:
Expected in-stock date is Fri Aug 30 2019.
Ooft. Did the transaction go through on your AMex card? MIne hasn't come through but received an order confirmation
Ditto.
Hope not.
Showed in stock when I ordered.
Reports on whirlpool show others purchasing from the Sony store online on Friday, arriving today.
not out of stock, i could buy,
the delivery is a bit slow… 2 weeks? must be because of those qantas deals
Yeah now they say back-order, when I purchased earlier tonight they were in stock.
Yay. I have saved $249.95 for not buying. Have AMEX code but don't have PS code, not allowed to ask code here and can't post on Classified either being less than 1 year young…
saved $179.xx i think…
can u plug these into a samsung galaxy quick charger to charge? earbuds only come with a usb cable
Bought WH-1000XM3's gonna refund my Qantas WF-1000XM3s.
You could sell your WF1000XM3 to those who want it.
They were 2000 points + $245, with this deal bringing them down to like $175, I don't think they'll move at that price. I'd rather not deal with the hassle. Also order is still processing, not shipped or anything.
Good point. Not worth the hassle.
how can these ear pieces be noise cancelling?
They have mics on side and noise cancelling chip.
The classified is inundated with posts looking for the code. Is it really the right approach? I think not many ps plus members received the code. Keeping the requests in the comments seems much more sensible.
i think the best way would be:
for every deal post, there is 2 tabs, one for the deal discussion, and one tab for classified (for the very same item of course).
MOD, is this a good idea?
Completely agree, keep the code requests here. Having individual wanted posts in the classifieds is rediculous, the classifieds is now just a wall of code requests wanted. We now have over three pages of code requests in the classifieds. Whats the logic?
Want a code? Request it in the Code Request/Giveaway Megathread
Hi,
We've discussed this and come up with the new guidelines:
Currently we either leave in comments in the deal OR remove and link to classifieds. If left in comments, it creates a mess and makes it difficult for users to find on-topic discussion. We can't mark off-topic as then people will miss the comments. Moving to classifieds creates a huge amount of classified wanted posts and restricts members under 1 year.
For deals like these, we will:
(Keep in mind selling or wanting to buy codes in comments is not permitted and falls under selling in comments rule.)
Classified only allows >1 year members? So do the rest just lose out?
Don't worry, fat chance you may not lose anything. Lots of people looking for code and almost none offering them.
You're only 'losing' the opportunity to maybe purchase a code.
The limit is probably to stop classifieds getting carpet-bombed by new accounts begging for freebies each time there's a high profile bargain like this.
That's one of the reasons. I think the main one is scammers.
I think the point being made was that the "noise" from all the classified posts, is that the noise is somewhat unnecessary, is a good one. The requests could be better contained (self-contained).
Edit: By containing all the related requests together, OzBargainers wanting to sell / give away / buy other items, could do so, without having to navigate all the 'wanted' Sony PS Plus code requests :-)
Yes, I didn't realise about the Classified restrictions… I would have signed up and posted sooner, had I known (my bad).
I think just maybe a stickied master thread in the Classifieds where everyone posts in comments for items with big interest like this.
When did the email start streaming through? My friend's membership ends on 5 September but he hasn't received anything. Should I ask him to contact Sony directly?
PSPLUS-D77C-B3DP-BQXL-WM2ZD
I can wait for a price drop :P
Already got mine, but this is nice! People are selling them for $20 on classifieds lol!
I save enough on here, someone will be lucky enough to save $20 too!
This is Sony's marketing attempt to grow PS membership (lack of responses from PS members here). I might sound like a tin foil guy but I am sure our unconscious buying decisions are steered by the big companies marketing departments…
I didn't get the code myself but one of my mates got the code. I think he is a long-time PS member though.
PSPLUS-TH5X-P47B-K5B6-R7W2F
First in best served :)
Someone took it already - soo quick :(
LOL this feels like EBay click frenzy all over again… Many of us will be here refreshing this page every 5 seconds all night for a crumb of a code like seagulls…
Someone who didn't even thank them. This site has way too many lurkers.
Thanks but I am sticking with my $10 headphones.
Bastard, I paid $12 for mine the other day.
I have a gut feeling that eBay/gumtree will be flooded with these in about 1 - 2 days time.
That will be enough to push the market price down to sub $300
Ugh, I guess I’d better turn back on marketing emails from Sony
Oh good, the classified listing that I posted yesterday is now buried under three pages of wanted PSN code posts 😂
Not in the market for new headphones at the moment so have at it:
PSPLUS-LGLD-N6KN-9K59-NWHNV
You're a legend. Thanks man.
just ordered a pair the expected shipping date is 12-Sept-19
How did you get the expected shipping date?
there was a date in red at the final step of the order
Ahh I must of missed that. I got in basically straight after the deal was posted, so I may be a little earlier fingers crossed.
I ordered 3 hours after you. Mine is Thu Sep 19 2019.
I ordered 9pm 13th Aug yesterday and I'm told to expect it late August, orders must be flying in
Anyone have issues not seeing the order? I got an email with order number but I can't see my order on the website nor did I get an order email with the full invoice. My card already got charged.
Nothing here… confirmation on order page, no email, no invoice. Nada.
Cant see order on page.
Card was charged however.
Email ended up going to my PayPal email instead..
I literally just got mine, but I paid AMEX, just went to my Sony account.
Such a great deal if the AMEX promo comes through as well. Thanks for posting. Still waiting on that confirmation email from amex!!
