Hello Members

I bought a Samsung S20 FE 5G on a Telstra Plan of $99 Just this Morning and paid like $149 upfront for 5G Model. . Later in the evening i found this https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/573382 seems the price of the phone reduced by $150. I am entitle for money back as it happened same day? I was at work and by the time i decided to contact them they were closed for business so not sure tomorrow they will refused or what?

Anyone ever had a luck in similar sutuation?

Thanks

Edit: I spoken with Store Manager who was happy to refund me the difference back today.
All good and thanks all for your useful comments

Hello bhai did you open box and phone yet? Whether you did or not, practically 0 chance because you got the phone discount already (I.e. the up front price has a built in discount)

  No i haven't opened anything yet. Phone price was full. They used $1000 Gift card and rest I paid. Now same day in few hours only its $150 off. How ridiculous is that as it happened in span of 4 hours only after i purchased.

    Not ridiculous at all. That's how retail and sales events work. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you lose.

    That $1000 gift card is from Telstra so you can bet JB won't be refunding you as too much to lose. Hard luck

      They're such scam artists. They end the free Buds bundle promotion one day, and discount the phone the next! What a joke.

        @Techie4066: Are you seriously complaining that JB started up a new deal for a phone after the previous one ended? The buds are worth more than the $150 discount anyway so you still come up in front with the buds.
        
        Guybrush57 on 15/10/2020 - 20:10
        
        @CodeXD: In Techie4066's defence, the buds don't appear to be free after all if the phone itself becomes cheaper without them.
        
        CodeXD on 15/10/2020 - 20:15
        
        @Guybrush57: It is a pre-order bonus. JB was actually generous and let people get the buds live after release date.
        
        Guybrush57 on 15/10/2020 - 20:23
        
        @CodeXD: It was a promotion by Samsung. I didn't think JB would give the buds away for free.

      The forum is for finding good deals at the time of the deal, not to entertain subsequent drops in price. There are credit cards for this.

      You paid $1099, not $2000. Yes, the price for people that buy at launch is higher than if you wait. This is how it's been forever. If you want it at launch, you pay a higher price. You wait you get it cheaper. Same as all the ps5/Xbox preorders. If you aren't happy with the price, don't buy it.

        @Guybrush57: Then wait three weeks. Prices change, and no one is under any obligation to give you a partial refund.
        
        As above, would you be happy if the price went up and JB rang you, asking you to pay the extra on top?

        @brendanm: Under normal circumstances I would agree with you but in this situation, I still feel that a large price drop three weeks after launch day is unfair.
        
        If it was only a $50 price drop three weeks later or a $200 price drop 3 months later then I would be satisfied with the price I paid.

        @brendanm: I happily accepted the price on the condition that the phone would not be heavily reduced in price so soon. If JB had told me that would happen then I would have waited but they failed to do that. They took more because they knew they were going to sell it for less so quickly.
        
        That is the real story.

        In your bizarro world, how long afterwards should you continue to receive refunds because the price drops? Six months? A year?
        
        Or as people have stated, if the price increased to $1299 instead of decreasing to $899 soon after, then you would have certainly gone in and asked them debit you $200 more, by your logic?

        If I was to purchase the phone at full price 6 months into its life then it reduces in price $200 three weeks later then c'est la vie but a large reduction in price so soon? I don't feel that is fair.

        Officeworks does price beat, no price protection from what I can see.
        
        So that leaves 0 from 5. Try again?

        Assuming he has 28 Degrees price protection, that policy was closed to new customers. You both are treating me like I am being unreasonable for enquiring about price protection (a policy that may or may not exist) yet it is reasonable for John Kimble to enquire about price protection. Is it because it is a different business? Is it asking the original business you purchased from that you don't agree with? If a 28 Degrees customer who doesn't have the price protection policy but enquired about it then does that make them unreasonable in your eyes too?
        
        All I did was enquire with JB. I didn't demand a refund, I did not report them nor did I take any extreme measures.

        He has planned ahead, and pays for, price protection. He doesn't just decide that because he "isn't happy" with a price drop, that the retailer should hand him back cash.
        
        I don't agree with what you did, because if the shoe was on the other foot, you'd be on here posting about how JB hi-fi is the devil. If the retailer can't ask you to pay more later, you can't ask them to pay less.
        
        If you want price protection, pay for it. Whether that be the good guys rorting concierge program, or in a credit card, or something else. It is up to you to make sure you are happy, not the retailer.

        You don't enjoy the retailer asking me to pay more later yet you enjoy the retailer asking me to pay more sooner. I don't agree with either.

        I know it is up to me to be happy. That is why I made an effort to get back the $200 I overpaid.
        
        The TL;DR version is both John and I want price protection yet yourself and John feel only he should get it. If John truly was content with the price he paid then he would not exercise price protection nor would he pay for it.

        So it's which business you are claiming price protection with that makes all the difference? That changes it from being unethical behaviour to acceptable behaviour?

        @Ughhh: so as I stated earlier, people who don't have price protection agreements with say 28 Degrees but enquire about it are unethical? and those people in the past who successfully got price protection policies were unethical for asking about them until they got them at which point they immediately became ethical?

        You're the only one who keeps talking about 'ethics', while everyone else is talking about legal obligations.
        
        JB hifi exercising their rights does not make them unethical, despite what you think. Someone else not bending over for you to make you happy does not make them unethical.

        No, I haven't used price protection actually, even though I have it on my credit card. I buy things at a price happy with at the time, if I wasn't happy I wouldn't buy. I negotiate prices.

        @Techie4066: I asked you which ones offer a month's price protection for free. You said five do. However, they actually don't, and at least one you listed doesn't even offer price protection. So, yes, it seems you can't read fine print.

        You are intentionally dodging the question. Are you a politician? Or trolling…
        
        Under normal circumstances I would agree with you but in this situation, I still feel that a large price drop three weeks after launch day is unfair.
        
        If it was only a $50 price drop three weeks later or a $200 price drop 3 months later then I would be satisfied with the price I paid.

        The price you agreed to and paid was $1099. If the price increased to $1299 (instead of dropping to $899) and you don't agree with paying extra/JB charging you more, then you don't care about fairness, you only care about paying less without any right to.

        I said I don't expect a business to charge more a week later. I also don't expect a business to charge more a week prior. If you think it's not OK for the business to ask for more money but OK for me to pay more money then you are contradicting yourself.

        Yeh, at the time of your visit. Your transaction had none of the conditions you feel entitled to. Being 'launch' doesn't mean they can't change the price a week later. Nor are they legally and ethically obligated to tell you future prices/deals.
        Think about it, they're sales people, goal is to….sell! If you 100% trust others with conflict of interest to tell you the truth (about whether it's a good price or not), then you need some life experience.

        The main difference is that for the majority of those price errors, the transaction/contract is not complete. Buyer has offered to pay $X amount, if the price is a genuine price error, seller can accept or decline as per their T&Cs. It's acceptable, It's a gamble for the buyer, except you either get your money back or the item. Shouldn't be surprised if your order is cancelled.
        Karens emerge when they start feeling they're entitled to the price error.
        
        In your case, you have accepted the price, JB has accepted your offer, you paid, they supplied.
        
        hence why I tried to do something about it.

        Were you offered a good deal, or the best cheapest price?
        
        Were you guaranteed the best cheapest price within the next month/s at JB?
        
        Does your contract include the condition that they will not decrease the price X months after your purchase?
        
        You agreed to the price, therefore you paid. Unless you're suggesting you were held at gunpoint.
        
        There's no issue with asking JB for credit of the difference. If they gave you credit, it's a bonus, not an entitlement. If they don't give you the credit, you didn't lose anything, you were not a victim. You win some and you lose some. Entitlement comes in when you expect more than what you and the other party agreed to.

        Being brand new or not does not change the laws. There's no laws or no ethical guidelines in regards to pricing of brand new products.
        
        Your 'ethics' may differ from everyone else here, but you have no rights to demand others to follow your ethics (beyond what is required by law)….that would be unethical.

  I bought the Note20 Ultra 5G for $1,099 from JB Hi-Fi at launch. Less than a month later JB did a deal for $899
  
  That's really cheap! It's usually ~$2,000!

Luck with Refund from JB Hi-Fi?
