The dick Smith gaming clearance hasn't appealed to all due to the haphazard manner of leaking and the irregular stock levels but this deal is undoubtedly awesome.
And the majority of stores seem to have stock.
I just saw it in my local but the price seems unchanged online…
Get at it!
EDIT: for those too lazy to call/to happy to neg: http://goo.gl/YSVed
Did you buy one? Can you post the receipt?
Little quick with the vote (BTW your comment is fine as it reflects the info at the time you made it, its just the vote)
Problem with neg voting so quickly is that when the OP fixes the info, now says in store, your vote stays until you remove it, ( or others vote down your comment and removes the vote.)
Negative voting is designed to hide inappropriate deals If this is available in store and people miss out because of negative votes, then a bargain is lost to all here.
This site was set up to share deals
+1
I must say that while I do understand the skepticism when I first posted the deal, the increasing aggression and negativity on this site over the years has really started to get to me.
Post a deal to help community members and get blasted… no thanks
That's the reason I, and many others, I'd presume, have stopped posting as many deals as I used to.
And these are the same people that contribute nothing and instead spam the forums with overpriced offloaded iPhone idiocy.
Why do they have a voting system anyway? Why does the site encourage negative feedback? I don't get all the hoopla about mistakes in thread titles, lack of pictures, links etc. If you don't like the bargain you can look away. This is a great site but I sense it has flaws.
@davedrastic
A very good example of the negative vote in the works - Megabuy.
There's a very good reason the negative vote is there and is even there in the Ozbargain wiki, which I suppose you didn't even bother reading?
Here's the link http://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/help:voting_guidelines
Cheers
@spawnpoint
Ur right, I didn't (and won't) read the wiki. I'm not required to.
then don't ask the questions. This exactly the reason people with no price in the title, wrong description blah blah blah are negged in the first place.
Believe me, I've been negged plenty of times, but never for violating the posting guidelines.
Ok I understand, my mistake.
Didn't even think of the instore price opposed to online.
Aprils Fool?
I guess not, great find!
don't be trolling now…
I'm giving the OP a benefit of doubt as I was at one of the store yesterday and they were spending a fair bit of time slapping $5 stickers onto some of those games that's known to be $5. So I'd say pics or it didn't happen.
april fools jokes i reckon,
i was expecting lots of these types of posts today
sorry for doubting you,
i got one too :)
It's April Fools Day. Quit your jibber jabber. Pity the fools.
Errrrr nevermind. See my update below.
Any Receipts?
OP has been a member since 2009, so not sure if trolling.
Lame april fools…
What an absolute joke these major retailers are… Selling at RRP then crying poor when no one buys from them…. Idiots!
LTS has it for $245
what is your point, listing LTS's price here?
I listed it prior to the OP being able to confirm the price and everyone saying this was an April Fools joke. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
Guys, call a local store, 20c for such an amazing call isn't THAT much, even for an ozbargainer
also you can check stock in the store online, so you only call a store that has stock
which store did u get it from?
are u able to buy today? if so im gunna get 1 b4 it gets ozbargained
Saw these on sale yesterday in JBhifi for $240
Hey, so I did some leg work for a mate that wanted one by calling him and telling him what I saw on here. He and a friend went down to the local country Nsw store and ended up with 2 for that price. Time for me to hope down and see what else is there.
Thats a plus for me
Anything else worthy of note at DS? Thinking of driving on down to one.
Got one sweet deal!
Stock all gone. Taken by staff. Otherwise why would OP post only the sticker.
Words can't describe how cool your story is bro.
Also, I'm chilling with JFK and Elvis right now.
The 'sticker' has the cat. number in it. That's all you'd need to call up and verify anywhere.
I've run out of neg votes to hand out to people like you, and I haven't revisited the other thread yet.
My bad, Got myself one as well. Thought about cleaning out the whole store but I was thinking of the other ozbargainers.
Epic deal thank you so much op. Picked one up!
did you find any other products with discounted price? (including the previously published list of items)
I have asked logitech g19, dsi, 3ds.. but still on old prices..:(
appreciate your reply
I didn't browse through the items, probably should have but when I asked the staff about whether other items were on sale he said no. Worth noting he didn't know the g27 was so cheap
thanks for info. ;-)
any more in stock at Woden? GOnna head there right now if there happens to be one more?
I saw one display model left
what happened to the pic here ?
did DSE get it deleted ?
A heads up for Sydney people, there are 5 at the Carlingford store and confirmed price is $139.
I'm picking one up and I already have one. Damn you OzBargain!
damn you! thats my local! dont tell everyone!
nevermind! was at rockdale and picked up the last one, dude behind me missed out lols
felt bad that i said "time to hit ebay" out loud lolz
that guy was me!
I was thinking of Rockdale or Eastgardens at noon but went to eastgardens instead.
I just checked my local store…they have plenty in stock and it is $139….Getting ready and going now…yay
what is your local?
he's not gonna tell you now. Maybe after he gets one for himself :)
Parrramatta…they have 7…just got one now
i got mine too from top ryde. the guy said i got the last one, but they may have some extra stock at back,cause dse wesite shows top ryde still has stock.
@eric onine stock levels aren't updated as frequently as in-store levels which are instant.
Wonder if LTS can beat this ;)
can't think of any reason they are selling these before tomorrow?
people come in store tomorrow, find everything they want gone, get pissed off, but then see the g27's and all is forgiven.
but they wasted that chance by selling them today.
just got one from moonee ponds, last one!
p.s. thanks to the OP awesome bargain!
Deal confirmed. DS North Ryde have about 7 in stock marked down to $139.
It's legit. My local store only had one…and it was a display unit. No thanks.
Will pickup one when I pickup my transformer 16gb today
luck I called and hold one this noon, nothing left when I picked it up with my $300 Asus transformer 16GB just before 4pm,
I got one as well. Thanks tithe OP. glad I held off buying when it was $249
Apparently plenty in QLD warehouse. Staff didn't know it was reduced but said it was a scheduled weekend special.
I wasn't even looking to buy one as I have the Logitech Momo Force Feedback wheel which has been serving me well, but then this comes along …
Thanks OP.
Oh and $132.05 with Woolies staff discount.
Just bought one for myself - after a group of people before me bought 3!
Talking to the sales clerk who only found out about it this morning, they're going to do a gaming sale that's either going to start today or later this week. But, they're kicking it off with the G27. Bloody awesome.
WOOO just bought one!
my local dick smith has 2 in stock, just rang and reserved one, gonna head down soon and pick it up.
Come on LTS! Beat it!
I just picked one up thanks OP!
Dse in Broadway still have 5 left after taking 1 for myself. Thanks OP.
This site is just full of so many bargains I want but don't actually need
Gosford has 2 left in stock. Only bought one. Didn't Broden it :P
I'd advise you ring up and reserve it if you find out they have them in stock.
That's crazy price. Bought two anyway. I paid $499 two years ago on DS online.
Does this mean the rest of the sale started?
NO, still from tomorrow
Thanks OP for posting an incredible deal! Keep the deals coming. Appreciate it! Just picked one up, as I was leaving another person was carrying one.
Picked one up at Nunawading, Melbourne. Its pretty much a revolving door for people buying G27's here.
Runaway Bay Qld, nothing still at $499 in store…no reduction at all!
Did you get them to scan it? Maybe they hadn't put the sale ticket up yet.
Confirmed. Just picked up one at Chermside in Briabane.
Just bought one from the Nambour Store, in QLD. Thanks so much!
While I was in there collecting it, one of the sales clerks were on the phone talking to another customer enquiring about the G27.
Looks like they're popping up on eBay already:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Logitech-G27-Steering-Wheel-PS3-X…
Shame on those people…
Wyoming, New South Wales
Called up Lidcombe who had 30 or so G27s… They said it's $139 at every other store except their one. Reason was "Our store is going through some changes right now. It's weird". I don't really need one so probably won't drive anywhere far to get one. Goodluck to everyone else! Burwood is out of stock too!
Does that mean they are excluded from the deal tomorrow?
possibly. cuz they r the only store not selling it for $139. they insisted it had to be sold for $499
Maybe their G27's are transformers.
Anywhere on gold coast that has reduced it?
Confirmed at DS Parramatta as well. Curently 13 in stock on the floor.
picked up one in highpoint vic, there was still two there on the shelf
Just grabbed 2 from DSE Greensborough… THANK YOU OZBARGAIN
I grabbed one from Greensborough as well. They had 3 left, about 40 mins ago.
They have more out the back
nice price!
Shows as $499 online. Is that the price from Monday?
