Been watching this watch for a while - price dropped this morning
Got pricematched from Officeworks at Lewisham for $425.60
Officeworks now have lowered their price to $447 incl. delivery

You don’t deserve to buy this if you’re comparing it to a $40 mi watch 😛
value for money
great price!
thanks OP. will be copping.
EDIT: DAmnit, just tried to price beat at OW, and they LITERALLY just updated their price to $447 as i was talking to the customer service person.
ughh
This is the reason why I try avoiding Officeworks as much as possible. Their price beat has gone to sheyt.
A dollar lower so they don’t have to price beat.
Hasn't OW always done this?
My other half has this watch and really likes it. Great price for it!
Price Beat is no longer an option unfortunately.
Edit: Just checked and Amazon have now matched the HN price.
Hi bought this watch at OW earlier this week (haven't even opened it yet), can I ask them to refund me the difference?
Return it and buy it back in store?
I bought this watch a few days ago from OW
saw the price drop on Amazon this morning, returned it and bought a new one at 425$
Question for the Garmin users out there.
I was seriously considering a Forerunner 245 (music) but this has caught my eye. I run casually 10-14km, say 2 to 3 times per week - road and track. Any runners had experience with both style of watches and care to comment (I know the venu 2 has some limited features as it is not a dedicated running watch)? I also do some basic strength training.
The other thing that attracted me to the forerunner 245 were funnily enough the buttons - I am currently Mi Band 5 user (cheap I know) and it drives me nuts with the false/phantom touches on the touchscreen when I am in the shower - anyone with the Venu 2 experience this issue with false/phantom touches with water pressure?
I bought this watch about 6 months ago. It's fantastic.
Also run similar distance and times per week as you. Perfect for that. They do have a lot of other exercise features.
I believe the forerunner 245, doesn't have Garmin Pay, which I find really handy.
Suggest you watch some reviews on the watch.

Garmin dropped the price so several retailers should be this price. JB is $449. TGG is also $449 but with $30 store cash if you sign up to their digital wallet ($70 for gold members).
TGG might be the best option if you have something to buy from them as the store cash has to be used within 10 days of credit.
Otherwise, buy from whereever you can get discounted GC's
This or the 40$ mi band?
