All time low for the LG OLED 42", TCL C845 85" and SanDisk E30

    Don’t often comment in deals, but the 42” C3 pricing is awesome. Will definitely be looking at grabbing one. Great work in calling up some stores too. Thanks BG!

      I'm holding a bit longer, I've got a feeling, I was after a 42 C2 but missed the boat, C3 is better I'm sure but haven't researched the nuances yet

        Outstanding deals; the C2 may have been cheaper at some points towards the end of it's sale period however I feel this is a very good price for the C3 until next March-April sales.

        Some reviews temper the differences between the C2 and C3 - I would suggest testing it instore and ask for it to be setup in default not demo settings. I have and the brightness difference makes it worth the difference if you can stretch your budget.

        Issue is aud vs usd, until the aud strengthens, very unlikely to see a cheaper price than this for a long time.

            @pragmaticguy: Economist here: 3-4 year political terms tend to automatically invalidate that kind of forecasting.

            You can do broad strokes around things like GDP assuming you have a good grasp of the state of technological advancement and typical military, political, financial and social stability, but we don't really have a lot of those at the moment.

            Then there's pandemics…

            @pragmaticguy: If USD printing continues, it will depreciate. AUD has to print less than USD and then it can go up in relative value.

            Current US inflation dropping faster than Aus inflation doesnt support this thesis, but in the long term currency supply will be a bigger factor.

        • jasswolf on 16/11/2023 - 13:34

          There's a lot of pressure on this format from the monitor space now, and manufacturing volumes are way up… was also $100 AUD cheaper for the C2 this time last year.

          I can imagine $1250 could come into the mix over the next few days, and we'll see sub-$1000 in March next year.

          Luxury items don't gain anything out of inflationary pressure, which is why most electronics are getting a rude shock this year as people start better examining their spending habits.

          • pragmaticguy on 16/11/2023 - 17:09

            @jasswolf: Good points, but coming from a country where inflation has been out of control for… pretty much forever, what I can say it that luxury items eventually either catch up and go up, or stop being sold altogether.

            • jasswolf on 16/11/2023 - 18:16

              @pragmaticguy: I mean in theory eventually wages go up to catch up with the pace of inflation, sure. I just don't see why there's going to be long term uncontrolled inflation.

              I think a much better explanation of things right now is a bunch of short term shocks, and people not quickly understanding how their purchasing habits and service models they interact with should shift.

              As an example, some people right now are probably eschewing a TV, tablet, phone or computer in favour of throwing solar panels on their roof, while others are catching up to that concept.

    For people who do this frequently, what is the quickest way to get discounted JB gift cards? Are they usually the ones that are occasionally discounted from Coles/Woolies? Or where are people usually getting them and how long do they take to come through?

    I am in the market for a TV this black Friday but don't want to tie up my money in JB gift cards if a better deal comes along from somewhere else.

      The 'quickest' way I can get discounted cards is through Bupa rewards. You can buy multiple cards up to $500 value each, for 5% off, and they are made available through the Bupa portal almost instantly in my experience. Caveat is that it's only available as a Bupa member.

    Anyone have recommendations on a monitor arm that would support its weight?

    • deadpoet on 16/11/2023 - 09:13
      +4

      I use the Desky heavy duty monitor arm, it is a bit pricy but excellent:
      https://desky.com.au/products/heavy-duty-single-monitor-arm

      You will also need to buy a VESA adapter plate since TVs have a much wider VESA mount spacing.

      • serpserpserp on 16/11/2023 - 10:20

        Is your monitor over 11kg? I need to get one but the website says:

        Minimum required monitor weight 11+ KG (without stand)

        Does that mean if my monitor is under that weight it won't work?

        • deadpoet on 16/11/2023 - 12:03
          +1

          I'm using it with my LG C2 42", which is identical in weight to the LG C3 42" — 9.8kg without the stand. It'll work perfectly with that, but I wouldn't attempt to use this monitor arm with anything lighter. Adding a required VESA adapter plate also adds a few hundred grams to the weight.
          https://www.lg.com/au/tvs-soundbars/lg-oled42c3psa

          There's plenty of reviews on Desky where people are using it for the LG C2 42":
          https://desky.com.au/products/heavy-duty-single-monitor-arm#…

          If your monitor is lighter then you can buy a lighter and cheaper monitor arm.

          • dmcneice on 16/11/2023 - 12:12

            @deadpoet: Where does one get a VESA adapter plate, or is it included with the TV?

            • deadpoet on 16/11/2023 - 12:16
              +2

              @dmcneice: You can buy these from the usual places like Amazon, eBay, AliExpress etc. These do not come with a TV, no.

              The standard VESA spacing on monitor arms is 75x75mm or 100x100mm, and the VESA spacing on the LG C3 42" is 300x200mm, so you need to look for a 100x100mm to 300x200mm VESA adapter, such as this:
              https://www.amazon.com.au/Universal-100x100mm-400x200mm-ADP4…

              These generally cost between $30-50.

          • serpserpserp on 16/11/2023 - 13:56

            @deadpoet: The desky arms are all the same price really! Just trying to make sure I get the right one for my use case. My 34" ultrawide monitor with a BenQ light attached is now just making everything too heavy for the arm I got from officeworks.

            • deadpoet on 16/11/2023 - 14:28

              @serpserpserp: I only got the Desky heavy duty monitor arm because it was the cheapest decently-built monitor arm that can handle the 42" TV, for the price (no way in hell would I shell out $400 for an Ergotron!). If your monitor isn't that heavy, I'd go for something cheaper like the usual OzBargain favourites such as the North Bayou series.

    • SS625 on 16/11/2023 - 10:14

      any good using as monitor?

      • WorstAgreeableRadish on 16/11/2023 - 10:30
        +1

        As good as an OLED monitor can be. There are some text display issues with OLED, so they aren't great for productivity.
        It is also a TV, so some things we take for granted with a monitor (like not having to switch it on and off) are things you would lose (or so I've read).

        I plan to use it purely for gaming and moving it out of the way for other stuff, therefore the arm. I'm still on the fence though. Maybe I'll wait till next year and see what comes out.

      I already own an 85" Sony for my theatre, I want bigger but for LG OLED it's 83" or bust. But they are still sitting at $7K-$9K depending where you buy. Waiting until they are circa $4K.. Might be waiting a couple more years. Even my 85" feels a little on the small side but I'd rather my LED then a smaller OLED. 65 inch and smaller is too small for most living rooms. Even my older 70" in my other living area looks tiny.

          Well we built a house with a theatre room and already negotiated to actually make it a theatre room with proper Atmos surround setup, in-ceiling speakers etc. You need a proper size TV to go with it. I don't think any wife wants or cares about these things lol. I didn't want to go projector because they are not there yet for gaming features as I game a lot and didn't want to install both. This was 2 years ago now. Been wanting an OLED, 83" would be the minimum for that type of room. I'm contemplating just waiting altogether and get something like a 98 inch in years to come.

        Agree with you. I own a 85 NEO QLED from Samsung. Wish I could afford to upgrade to OLED but god its expensive. That said, I'd rather a big NEO QLED than a small OLED at this stage for our theatre room. Just something about a massive TV that really draws you in, especially when gaming.
