  • Going to to JB tomorrow for a refund ! Thanks

  • This is the deal for me, no more waiting. Finally pulled trigger. Thanks!

  • +1

    haha this is why amazon will be taking over the world. JB, EB and even Big W are hanging their heads lol

  • +1

    Well I waited nearly 12months but finally some decent movement on the switch price, purchased! Now for some games and accessories..

  • How long did people have to wait to link up zip pay?

  • gonna pay with ZIP and get 10% back! nice

  • Thanks OP👍

  • Always wait for Amazon!

  • Ok black friday, you win. Now will go and look for Pokemon and Zelda zzz

    • What's the best deal for Pokemon so far?

      • +1

        This deal is currently the cheapest available - $63.71 Delivered @ The Gamesmen eBay.

        All the cheaper deals has expired.

  • Just got a grey one with SB. Will try TRS return when I go overseas in two wks time. Thanks OP!

  • Pulled the trigger. Time to return Jb one. Just realised this deal comes to $300 if the discounts actually track. That’s an impressive deal.

  • Thanks OP - I stacked the Zip + Shopback + Zip gave me a $10 credit too, not sure why but not complaining!

    • Where can you see that?

      • When I went to the payment screen and selected ZipPay (from my Amazon Wallet), it had a check-box to "use bonus credit?" :)

  • ty for the post. I saw the deal on AmazonAU first but came here for the extra discount :P
    First time using Cashback, hope it works. I'll look more into Zip's credit lending before trying…

    Goodnight.

  • Thanks for this OP. Attempted to register for zipmoney. Too hard. Just gonna get it at 349 from Amazon. Afferpay was so much easier

    • Good call, not worth saving$30 for a credit check that affects your future finances, mortgages etc

  • -1

    this is the best price thus far Richard?

  • New model?

  • thanks!! - has anyone found a good price for additional joy-cons?

    • +1

      Yep mate Amazon have Price matched Big w price all Joy-Con are for $99. If you pay via Zip get 10% off and additional 5% via shopback which will bring it down to $84.65 best you can find anywhere cheers

  • -1

    Not sure if this is the new version

  • +1

    Nice.

    Do you run the risk that Mario Kart won't be available by the time it arrives vs buying at Jb?

    • I wanna know this too. Does having a download code NOT mean you're guaranteed a game?

  • when you finally pulled the trigger….Thanks Amazon!

  • Does Amazon issue us the tax invoice for GST claim?

    • they do

  • How long until the Cashback tracks from Shopback?

    • It tells you on the shopback under the merchant details, usually within 4 days.

  • Really skeptic around which model this is… cnet saying be careful and old models sell with mariokart

  • 298 isn't bad

  • +1

    Desciption on Amazon says this about battery life: For example, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild can be played for roughly 5.5 hours on a single charge.

    So that means this is the new model.

  • I've placed order, paid with zip pay, but it doesn't show the transaction in my zip account, how does this work?

    • Same here, lets see how it go

  • I bought through gamesmen last night, would the eBay price guarantee work for this?

    I've not used that before so not sure what the success rate is?

    • But you would also need to factor in zip n shopback, dont think it can match all that

      • I did it and it worked.

        It does factor in the Shopback (because they refund you the difference and then beat by 5%), but not Zips 10%. I wouldn't have done Zip anyway tbh.

  • thanks OP. bought one this morning for the kids. they can play Mario Kart while on holiday.

  • +1

    Can you get TRS with the switch if it is paid via zip?

    • Curious on this one too. Anyone have an experience?

    • Curious on this one too. Does anyone have experience?

    • Curious on this one too. Does anyone have experience?

  • Mmmm been waiting over 90 mins for the zip account to be activated but worried this will just go out of stock

  • Daammit, I couldn't sign into zip with a mobile number after creating an account…

  • +1

    I bought the gamesmen already, does anyone know if I can claim price guarantee?

    • I was just asking the same. I've read the T&Cs and I can't see why not so am going to submit a claim soon.

      The gift card for difference + 5% would be pretty much equal to this deal, just missing the Zip which I probably would never have done anyway.

    • +1

      got $43.26 voucher

  • -1

    New model… Yay.

    Here is what the Amazon rep said…

    Upon checking, I can provide you with Model number: HAC-001.

    Serial number starts for this console is XAW

    • +2
    • +2

      The new Nintendo Switch has a model number that starts with HAD:

      HADSKABAA for the model with the blue and red Joy-Con controllers
      HADSKAAAA for the model with grey Joy-Con controllers

      The new Switch should have a serial number - located on the bottom of the console - that starts with the letters XKW.

      • +1

        https://www.cnet.com/how-to/make-sure-you-dont-buy-the-wrong…

        New switch model number: Hac-001(01)
        Serial No. begins with: XKW

        So yes, that would appear to be the old model

        • Thanks for the info guys. Just cancelled my order.

          • +1

            @[Deactivated]: I think it's still worth asking the amazon rep yourself just to be sure. We're going off of RSmith's comment.

            • +1

              @Ethan Bargain-Hunt: I talked to the rep. You can do it yourself. I am on chat again to confirm again and will be cancelling the order if it is xaw

              • @RSmith: Could you please let us know the outcome ?

                • @IronRod: Ok guys, the second consultant confirmed it is the new model with serial starting XKW. He will also get the inventory team to update the website.

                  • +2

                    @RSmith: Thanks for following that up. I’ll reorder it 😂

      • Phew close call. Just cancelled my Amazon order.

        • I just spoke to the amazon rep and confirmed that the serial number begins with XKW.

          As per the rep: don’t worry, Kit. You will receive the all brand new Nintendo switch which was recently launched.

    • +1

      That’s the old model… lucky I waited

    • +1

      Wait what?

    • +1

      confirmed with online rep. this is new model. model number:HAC-001(-01) , serial number begins with “XKW”.

      • Yup, had a chat

        Model number: HAC-001(-01)

  • puller trigger thx

  • Just ordered mine in Amazon
    I can see they always got 1 new available.
    Hope they won’t cancel the order like Target didi.

  • thanks OP, claimed eBay price guarantee. $43.2 voucher. so $331.55 from thegamesmenau deal.

    • Hey, good to hear! How did you initiate the refund? I can't find a way to contact them besides calling? (Currently overseas). And I bought the Odyssey combo. I hope this doesn't affect the price guarantee. Although screenshoted them both in my Amazon cart

      • @Cheapotle, just initiate a chat with them. I did it through the app by going to help, contact us, chat.

        Then just give them the ebay item ID (from your confirmation email), the Amazon link, and list the two prices.

        I just did it on the bus this morning. Took about 8 minutes.

      • And I bought the Odyssey combo

        it has to be the exact same item

        • It looks like I had a good customer service experience, and should be getting a voucher from eBay. Even with the different bundle. Thanks for your post!

    • +1

      I think they made a mistake calculating mine, I think they used the pre-discount price. I received a voucher for $137!

      • nice one. yes they did made a mistake

  • +2

    For anyone wondering I bought from JBHiFi last night for $389 saw this deal when I woke up, went into JB and they were happy to refund me the $40 difference. Couldn't get the MK8 code last night as the offer didn't go live yet. Added bonus was with the refund the MK8 code printed :)

    JB confirmed the Amazon offer to be the new switch

  • Well the picture clearly shows the new switch packaging so it would be terribly bad PR if they swapped the innards in the box to the older model. If it’s in the older packaging can alwatys return unopened.

    • correct, take a screenshot

      • Cnet said the old model will be bundled up with Mariokart so there you go.. not surprised

      • It is definitely being advertised as the new model, by the product description and also on the original listing for the 2019 model "Nintendo Switch (Neon Blue/Red) [new look packaging]" there is a link saying "There is a newer version of this item:" which links to this deal so I don't see how this could be the old model because it is advertised as the new model in every way. We will only truly know once it arrives and we can check the serial number.

    • +1

      Longer battery life feature clearly suggests the new model. If not, it's getting returned.

      • Also as stated above in the Amazon description "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild can be played for roughly 5.5 hours on a single charge" indicating the new model from Nintendo https://www.nintendo.com/switch/compare/

  • Would this also stack with the Amex $20 back amazon deal? I wasn't quick enough to save it but would make it 278 for anyone here that did?

    • +1

      If you pay with zip then I don’t think you are using Amex directly with amazon which invalidate it

    • Stacked with $20 amazon voucher from McDonald’s monopoly.

      • but you might not get shopback if u use that

        • I think you are right.
          Luckily the ZIP 10% back has been confirmed.
          Should have used the voucher to buy games instead.

  • +1

    I just spoke to the amazon rep and confirmed that the serial number begins with XKW.

    As per the rep: don’t worry, Kit. You will receive the all brand new Nintendo switch which was recently launched.

  • Confirm JB price match Amazon. Bought from JB last night, got refund when collecting today

    • they refunded you in-store or they told you to request it online and their CS reps will reply to you?

  • Just me or is anyone else unable to add a zip pay account to Amazon?

    • Took me 6 times (sms verification) and finally got it. I think their system getting ozb

  • +1

    Looks like the price is back up to $374

  • I got issue with paying via zip. now it's $374!

  • Bugger have been waiting since 6am for the Zip account to add to amazon and have missed out

  • Party's over. Back to $374

    • All over. eBay will only refund the difference at the 374 price now.

  • +1

    Why does it say $389 for me?
    Either way, annoyed. Amazon Prime member, would have been great to get a heads-up about this from Amazon and I would've waited up for this last night.

  • I'll be contacting Amazon about it. I had it in my cart at 349 but zip was not verifying my number for whatever reason. Their customer support is usually very good so we'll see if they will honor the price.
