[Orders Cancelled] Free Pair of Men's Boxers Delivered @ Step One

Moved to Forum: Original Link

Looks like code is generic. Free boxers for everyone! (thanks Scatman00 and others for confirming)

Changed to new code. (thanks Hintswen)

Update: All orders cancelled with unique 50% off code provided to those who used the free code

Code 29%OFFCHR for 29% off multiple pairs if anyone wants.. Seems generic. (thanks Mario1234)

    • Exploit? Nah that's just a cover for "OMG obvious price error but I demand they honour it as per the contract (insert Karen-style arguments)".

      • +6

        Because its happened once before….to which they promised wouldnt happen again.

        Look where we are today…

  • What's that A current affair. Of course we can explain our marketing strategy, *cough I mean IT glitch.

    I sort of think Greg should have honoured this and get ozbargaiers (presumably a few new customers) try the undies and become his loyal customers if the qualities are as promised. I’ve never used his product but if it is really comfy I would continue buying imfrom him. Otherwise no chance I would pay even with the 50% discount code for a pair.

    • +4

      Average ozbargainer wouldn't pay over 10 bucks for boxers

  • +21

    Step One - create a promo without doing sufficient testing
    Step Two - get huge volumes of orders
    Step Three - cancel all such orders, apologise, offer 50% discount
    Step Four - Sip on margaritas while your orders ring @ 14.50 per pair as there would be people ordering via the 50% code
    Looks like that stock market tip scam!

      You've got all of the answers don't you?

  • These are great undies, have bought a few dozen over the years. Give these guys a break

    • +1

      We’ve already gave them a break multiple times with the same behaviour being repeated

      • +1

        Multiple times = once before when there was a sneaky way to get cheap undies. Think you're being a bit critical man.

      • you'll get over it

  • +3

    I know Greg more worried about the reviews than honouring his deals .
    Maybe you should cut your advertising budget slightly .
    Anyway I think your 4.7 rating too high and that is my hint .

    Under chapter 2 of general protections in ACL section 18 (1) "A person must not, in trade or commerce, engage in conduct that is misleading or deceptive or is likely to mislead or deceive."

    And for those which paid a small amount, "consideration need not be adequate". (Thomas v Thomas (1842) 2 QB 851; 114 ER 330)

      Oh wow you are practically a lawyer. Get off it

      • +1

        Does that mean you're not filing an application to join his class action lawsuit?

        Lmao!

  • Didn’t someone post here and say that the store is giving them a choice to cancel or honor it?

    • +4

      No that's what they did on their last stuff up.

  • Anyone got a spare 50% off code? All else aside, I've been wanting to try these for a while!

  • +15

    Is it only me that picked up Greg trying to sell his overpriced Jocks at 50% off which is the normal retail they offer anyway ! Resulting in huge profits .
    Yeap that taking advantage of the data .

    • Yeah, typical of microbrands.

      As a one-time customer not overly happy with the product and its marketing, popped into the thread when I saw the negs to see what they're up to now.

  • Old mate Greg winning at 4D chess. Everyone knew it won't go through, normally I wouldn't buy in bulk to get $17 per, now I feel obligated to use the 50% code.

  • Can someone PM me a 50% off code? Been killing for a while to get new underwear! Thanks guys!!

  • Anyone got a spare 50% code? Would love to try. Thanks guys :)

  • +1

    What happens if I used the code on the trunks with the fly? I paid the difference on that. Would I still be getting the product as I purchased it?

    • +2

      I got a $2 refund and the same sucky email

  • +7

    Should have taken a leaf from kogans kitchenmixer ordeal and cop the lost to gain genuine customers. Own up to your mistakes, take the hit, be transparent with customers that you're making a loss, and hope 1 in 10 of those are reoccurring customers.

    • +1

      Not sure of their financial status, they are a team of only 6 though so it leads me to believe they aren't huge. The rep said there was over 3000 orders @ $29 a pair = $87,000 (+ postage). For a small business that may be more than just a loss - it could be serious for them.
      Especially when it wasn't even the undies were on a special sale, it was legit free.

      • +6

        You're talking about there selling price.
        How much are the undies landed in Australia?

        • +2

          I'd be surprised if they were over $10 a pair

          • +4

            @thedavemiester: Over $1- and I'd be shocked, seriously.

            • @Unsafe: You are on drugs.

              • -1

                @Pacify: Yet I can still see that these jox cost less than a buck each.

                Gaslight much?

  • +8

    I used the code and brought the $31 zip pair down to $2 and after I paid through PayPal, it charged me full price and the code said expired. Have asked for a refund through PayPal.

    • My condolences

    Hope you are OK

    I used a throw away email address but not happy Jan about the whole 'promotion'

    Didn't anyone test the program before releasing it. A very amateur way to run a company.

    Not going to use the 50% code received.

    • Any chance of using your code? 😁

  • +3

    I had to pay an extra $2 for my purchase and if a refund isn't received quickly I'll be making a PayPal claim. INR.

    • -5

      My condolences

  • Can someone kindly DM a 50% code ? been wanting to try them out too. thanks heaps !

    Wow, some of the comments posted on this deal reek of entitlement.

    Everyone makes mistakes, give the guy a break, and the world isn't out to get you or steal your personal information.

    • +1

      How did they have unique 3000+ 50% off codes to give to all those customers so fast? As others have said this smells like a marketing scam.

      • There's a lot of assumption in your comment, but computers can do some amazing things in a short amount of time.

  • if anybody has a 50% code and dont want. DM me please. thanks

    Wouldn't wear them if they were free and caused my peen to grow an inch. Them and their ads can get into the bin

  • Would love a code, been wanting to try them. Spent a lot of time in hospital at start of year and watched heaps of TV, old mate with his cactuses has always had me curious, but not for 30 bucks a slog.

  • If you let the above link load there is a spin to win on the side.

    I wonder if they were just copying their marketing lol.

    • Eh, spin to win promos have been around for a while, in so many industries.

      • Yes of course they have.

  • I’d be grateful for a code, if anyone wasn’t planning on using their’s.
    Thanks

  • Would love a code if anyone is willing. Pm please 🤗

  • Hi all, would love a code DMd. Thanks.

    Geez they had that very long, very well written apology/50% off email together pretty quick, didn't they?

    • +6

      Putting the email together and it’s funny they do know how to setup one off codes…

      • +1

        I'm not even mad.
        Clever, underhanded & looks like a bunch of us are keen for the 50% off.
        Magnificent bastards.

        Reminiscent of Kogan-Sunday's not so long ago…

  • Anyone has a 50% code? thanks

  • +9

    Smart marketing, get the clicks and customer data then spam them with 50% discount - they’ve learned from their previous mistake they’ve learned how to profit from it 👍

  • If someone isn’t using their code I’ll take one. Please DM me. Thanks

  • Would love a code is someone isn't going to use theirs.

  • Pm me if you want my code.

    Edit:
    And it's gone

  • +3

    I have tried them. Not worth $10 tbh, maybe will work for you though. They obviously got alot of marketing out of this and pushed people who were contemplating to make their first purchase. Nice coincidence.

  • +3

    Well, they manage to make a profit with this "genuine error" … as we can see lot of people buying 50% off…
    if they did a 50% off sale, they wouldnt get this much sales

  • +3

    Can imagine the people who don’t know about Ozbargain and genuinely won a free pair… wtf refund!?!

  • Anyone got a spare code please?

  • I would like a code if anybody has a spare. Ive been interested in trying these out, as the Bonds I wear have constant ride up :( Can anybody confirm that these ride up less than others?

  • +5

    For anyone wanting to try out bamboo underwear you can get bamboo trunks from aliexpress for $3-4 delivered. Probably cheaper if you search harder. You can imagine what stepone buy them for then

  • Anyone got a 50% code that they wouldn't mind parting with?

    • Here we go KX3XGTNZ.

      • Someone already redeemed it. Can someone DM me a code please?

  • Anyone feeling kind I'm keen for a code 😉
