          Surely if you're past number 15 you'd be able to figure that you're one of today's losers.

    Holy crap imagine the line at 6AM to get one… it'll be exactly 10 people long lol

      And the queue next to the Samsung pop up store to buy the $799 iPhone 4S will be 100 people long. LOL

      • netsurfer on 10/10/2011 - 11:14

        They should sell all 100 of those phones for $2 each on Friday to make the Apple iPhone 4S launch at Apple Sydney store more interesting.

    • boretentsu on 10/10/2011 - 13:31

      I hope they setup next to the Apple store on 4S launch date

    I wish they have the same store promotion in Adelaide… Just wishin'…

    Good luck for any Ozbargainers who gets one!

    Is a discount possible paying in cash?

    I am jealous!!

  • drmix on 10/10/2011 - 08:41

    when do they open?

  • leonheart1 on 10/10/2011 - 08:42

    42 minutes past 8… Probably all sold out for today…

    • drmix on 10/10/2011 - 08:43

      just noting for tomorrow ;)

  • djones145 on 10/10/2011 - 08:45

    when in to look
    they said someone lined up at 5:30
    so get in earlier

    • leonheart1 on 10/10/2011 - 08:47

      Whoa. Well I'm out lol.

    • bluedufflecoat on 10/10/2011 - 08:50

      makes sense. $847 "profit" or savings for 5 hours "shift work"… I would do it, if it was a sure thing!

        Homer: Heh heh heh, I did it! Second in line, and all I had to do was miss 8 days of work.
        Man: With the money you would have made working, you could have bought tickets from a scalper.
        Homer: In theory, yes.

  • subydooby on 10/10/2011 - 08:50

    Someone will line up from midnight!

      It's a good chance for homeless people. Some of them could pay $2 and they can start to sleep anytime, and they can sleep anywhere only if the shop staffs allow them to.

        Yep. I saw already a post over on ozhomloz.com.au

    I bet the queue gets longer than 10 people even though it's limited to 10.

      ROTFL! Great observation, bargainr. I think you're spot on there.

  • isdnman on 10/10/2011 - 08:52

    NSW only.

    • oswade on 10/10/2011 - 08:58

      Nooooooooooooooo.
      BTW this could be crazy… i can imagine ozbargainers fighting for the 10th spot in line lol

    • savememoney on 10/10/2011 - 08:55

      No contract, if you read the terms and conditions it says you will have to source your own service provider.

  • saine on 10/10/2011 - 08:57

    Almost more like a competition than a bargain!

    • Trance N Dance on 10/10/2011 - 09:28

      It is a competition (game of chance), check their permit number

  • bozter on 10/10/2011 - 09:01

    whoa!

  • Trishool on 10/10/2011 - 09:05

    Imagine the nerd fight in the queues for this one. Lol.

    • Castrom8 on 10/10/2011 - 14:49

      I calculated if you arrive 4hrs 27min before opening you have a 76.8% chance to be one of the first 10 people if the average travelling speed of everyone is below 12.1kmh!

      • Ace on 12/10/2011 - 00:46

        I calculated it to be 2hrs 28mins ???

      • Harold Halfprice on 14/10/2011 - 08:22

        yeah im with ace, i think you calculated it wrong

  • kash on 10/10/2011 - 09:07

    if it can be confirmed that it's without contract ill be there tomorrow at 5:30.

    but then again now that its on OzBargain, so will 1000 other people.

        i suspect he/she was alluding to the ongoing litigation between the two companies….

      • sparkles on 10/10/2011 - 09:29
        +3

        I figure he is implying Samsung sales are now so bad that they have to literally give them away in order to compete with Apple. Imagine the sheer chaos if Apple did a similar promo….there would be people waiting for a week.

        • Turd on 10/10/2011 - 09:34

          Why because iPhone 4S is soooooooo much better than the SGII?

    Basically a competition to see who is willing to wait the longest. You'd be so pissed to turn up at some stupid hour and be 11th in line. If you want one tomorrow I'd line up now LOL.

      • tron07 on 10/10/2011 - 09:40

        True to OZBargain sprit, I will go to townhall now to queue up as well

    I thought the state banned this sort of extremely limited stock sales after people got injured in those Myer's Boxing Day sales ?

    • Josh81 on 10/10/2011 - 22:25
      +1

      I remember going to one of those as a kid, my grandma's friend wanted my brother and I to buy some cheap fridges. A big fish tank outside Myer got knocked over. Water, smashed glass, & fish, what a sight.

  • pg88 on 10/10/2011 - 09:17

    If I get a flight up Melbourne - Sydney for max $149 (99 option available if I get up the day before) - from Jetstar - and assuming I pay that much to get back (total $298 or 198) and then get the phone (total 300 or 200) I will still be saving around $550 - 650

    sounds good to me

    • oswade on 10/10/2011 - 09:19

      until you find 10 ozbargainers already ahead of you :(

      Free accomodation for the night too but 0 stars - on the concrete outside the pop up shop.

          uh…pretty sure it's 0 stars; I don't think you can see the stars from Town Hall ;D

          It's a "Promotion"
