      Hi jv, did you change your name?

        Is he wrong though…

        No bold, no jv.

      A "short limited-time targeted application for a preorder at RRP from a retailer that just cancelled your order."

      I dare someone to find a worse OzB deal in our history?

  • +2

    not a bargain

  • +5

    Got the same and applied. Thanks for heads up as it goes to Promotions e-mails.

    • I wonder if everyone who purchases before got the email or if it is by order number

  • +3

    Anyone have issues with the email field?
    Says check email and try again.

    • +1

      Same. I could not fill the form by email incorrect

      • did you solve the problem of the incorrect email?

  • +7

    Oh ffs.

    We are clutching here

    This isn't a deal.

  • Mine got cancelled… Plllllleeeeaaaassseeee GG's… send me this email 🙌

  • Waiting for mine too fingers crossed

  • Damn, currently trying to sell my $100 gg cancellation voucher. Should have just waited instead of ordering mine from jb.

    • I 'hedged my bets' so to speak and opted to buy from the email I received since I too still have the $100 GG coupon.
      Can't scoff at a $100 $85 (Shipping costs..) discount.

      Can always cancel the JB one depending on whichever notifications comes first or when it comes time to pickup from JB.

      • Or dare I say sell it (at cost).

        • That's my backup. I'm no scalper but thankfully there is atleast 4 people even just here at my work who are also looking to get one :P

          So yeah even selling one at cost would net me a small $85 profit :)

              @cook99: insightful

              • @skido: It's what I do. Helping people enjoy their free $100 from GG

              @cook99: Heh, I actually did look around at their appliances, and was considering one of the Kenwood attachments. I always planned to hold onto the voucher until expiry on the 31st though incase a situation like this arose :D

    • -1

      I didn't know what to get for 100$. Finally I decided to get two Amazon fire sticks for 44$ each ( 49$ if you're buying only one). Should be fairly easy to sell them for 44$ on marketplace since they're 59$ RRP ( often on sale at 49$ ).

  • +3

    I thought ozRRP is bad.
    Until I saw this
    ozRRP + $15

    • Haha

    Application to purchase gaming console… What has the World become

  • +1

    So the GPU release wasnt Ozbargain worthy because it was MRP but this popular item that everyone wants releasing at MRP is? Hmmm… Fishy. Im not aimming at just this post. All of console releases that arent on sale lmao.

  • +3

    I would try my luck even if I didn't order previously. A couple of months ago, I registered my interest for PS5 on TGG website and it was supposed to be 'invite only'. I didn't have an invite but still got the text with the instructions to pay a couple of weeks after.

    • I just did this.

      The conditions state I wont be eligible but doesn't hurt to try. Hopefully they dont cross check and just send a text with purchase details.

      • +1

        Yeah I did the same. Fingers crossed 🤞

    • +1

      Haha nice

    • They don't know what they are doing .
      Proof is this crap so I'm in :)

  • +7

    Yeah sorry I'm normally ok with the in stock gpu and console posts but a targeted chance at RRP(+) is not a deal

  • -2

    OP - you might want to take down the link to the offer you have posted as it contains the link to the deal you were sent by email and other people can use it.
    Just post a screenshot of it rather than the link….

    • +2

      The link is generic.

      • But only those who got the email have the link I think? I don’t know how it works?

        • Everyone gets the same link. They will go and match up the email invite addresses against the order names.

          • +1

            @Twix: So people ‘sharing’ links as is happening on Twitter is a waste of time & space. Fair enough. the good guys are going to get a lot of emails.

            • @WanderButterfly: Yeah TGG are going to get flooded with emails.

              • +1

                @Twix: They get "new leads" for their email marketing. Wouldn't say it's a problem

  • Had a go for the digital version even though I didn’t get the email. I assume plenty of people who missed out last time have since snagged one from elsewhere, so maybe I’ll get lucky.

  • +3

    Bit rich they've upped the delivery fee from their failed original stock listing too

    • I hope that means they will be shipping it with an outer box and not simply wrapping it in black plastic film.. like they did with my sony xm4 which arrived box damaged

      • Mine came perfectly in an outer box from JB with $10 for shipping.

    Commenting to downvote. Relevant ppl will have email so no need for this

    • You don't get it .
      OP kind enough for everyone to have a crack :)

    • Isn't that how every Targeted deal works?

      • Some of the Uber ones work for others that don't get the emails. Others like Good Guys Commercial are relevant too. This ones spam

  • Why neg when he's trying to provide information that may help people who don't see the email?

    If I don't drink alcohol can I Neg all the booze deals because they don't help me?
    P.s. I drink plenty so would never do that

    • Yeah but they're deals people they appeal to may not be aware of not targetted offers.

      • People who got targeted may not be aware.
        I get 20+ promotion emails a day (3 from good guys today). Could have easily thought it was generic advertising…

        • -1

          Need to unsubscribe to all the spam you're getting then

          • @alfawex: I never said it was spam 🙂
            I subscribe to what I want to and unsubscribe to what I no longer want.

  • +3

    Never received this despite my ps5 order getting cancelled.

    • I feel for you…. its like kicking a homeless person… wait thats quite normal now…

    • did you check your promotions email?

      • Ofc checked everything including spam folder.

  • +5

    "Only customers who directly received an email invitation to apply will be eligible. We will not consider, or respond to, anyone who applies who did not receive this email directly and they will not have the opportunity to purchase a PS5 at this time."

    How is this a deal?

    • +2

      The same as every Targeted deal?

  • What a load of shit, first you get a $100 voucher and now you get priority preorder. Talk about having your cake and eating it…

    • +1

      My wife and I purchased one each, and both got cancelled.

      We received $100 voucher each and combined them to purchase a widescreen monitor (added $29)

      I can confirm that neither one of us got this email though.

    • +2

      Just hold out a little longer and you’ll be able to fly over to New York vaccinated for COVID where you’ll be able to give a speech in person to the United Nations about how grossly unfair your life is because a few people got a $100 voucher and a chance to exclusively order a PlayStation 5 from a retailer before you.

      Bad side is you’ll have to explain to several delegates from impoverished nations what a cake is and what eating is.

      • Haha !! Gold

  • +1

    a priority preorder only for some people? man they really are just the bad guys when they feel like it. i still applied just in case.

  • Since the OP didn't include it, and I seem to be one of the (few) people directly targeted, I should add on this part from the email also:

    "We expect to be Shipping stock from the second Week of February, although this is out of our control and may change. You will be notified when your product has been dispatched and it should reach you within 7-10 business days"

    Not a deal

  • +1

    Applied from TGG gonna use the $100 gift card they sent :)

  • This is so sad that in order to buy a PS5 you gotta fill out an application…

    • The thirst for the PS5 is crazy. Never seen anything like this before. Not even a new iPhone can demand such crazy attention.

  • Lol. What a joke

  • +1

    Ok which one of you didn't get the email but fill in the application form anyway?

  • +2

    Aha, just found this post has become a place for winner and loser battlefield after reading the comments above…

    • What a roller coaster ride that was!

      • yes, what a real life it is

  • Disappointing nobody has posted "thanks got 10" yet…

    • +3

      Thanks got 11

  • This is definitely NOT a deal

  • I like boys now

  • Just got the call now - they are starting to process the applications.

    Only one store credit is allowed - processed the $100 store credit that they provided from the cancelled order.

    • I can assure you these guys are the biggest bunch of Turkeys around and non cancelled orders will get through as well .

    • Did you ever actually get the follow up SMS link for payment?
      Got my call yesterday afternoon, still no actual message =(

      • Yep - got the SMS payment link and also email confirmation

        • Cheers. I had to call good guys and sort it, eventually came today some time.

  • Got a txt to process payment but only accepts credit card? Even though I selected to pay using gift cards..

    • ended up calling their customer care and doing a gift card payment. However, they didn't charge me for delivery.

  • Got the call this morning to add the $100 gift card. Just received the SMS and paid for the ps5 ($100 gift card already applied). Hopefully you guys get the same!

  • Does anyone know if this is just a preorder or of they actually have it in stock and will deliver?

    • They said will be delivered on 5 Feb

  • Received text and paid just now

  • SMS received from JB Hi-Fi Munno Para SA - PS5 is ready for pickup :)

    • How did you get pick-up?
      I thought this was delivery only.

      • I think the giveaway is that its a JB order - not from TGG

        • Haha yep that'll do it 🤦‍♂️

  • Does it still come with a free game like it did before?
