    They will not match sky tree. I was at a store earlier today and they said this. ā€œSky tree is not a real website itā€™s a fake websiteā€, I told them thereā€™s a physical store in Queensland. Then they claim ā€œwe got a memo from HQ not to match sky tree, our price matching team placed an order and it never arrivedā€. I pointed to their policy it says as long as the item has the same model number which they do, then they said this ā€œthey mentioned 24 months warranty which means itā€™s a fake website as Apple only carry 12 months warrantyā€

    Hope you guys have better luck.

      our price matching team placed an order and it never arrived

      So that's how they test the legitimacy of each store? Sounds like they just want to weasel out of a price beat.

        I recently asked Chemist Warehouse to price match a bottle of conditioner that was cheaper at Priceline. The lady said she couldn't price match as it was on sale at Priceline and not their regular price. Obviously I was bemused.

          That's ridiculous. I have successfully price matched sale items before. It's not excluded in their policy. I wonder though if the store manager has KPIs or bonuses inversely tied to the amount of price matching.

          Whenever I try matching they always bring the store manager. Force you to wait. I tried matching against another chemist warehouse type shop also called something warehouse. I was told "they're just a warehouse. they don't have physical stores. look at their name". I was amused but held it in until after I had shown her their main street shop front and address. I've also been denied because I wanted to buy 'too many' of an item, 6 units.

      My Officeworks Price Beat experience

      Iā€™ve successfully had Officeworks price beat a similar previous deal at my local store.

      On the first attempt, one of the team members declined the Price Beat. I went back the following morning and tried again with another staff member, and the Price Beat was approved without any issues.

      So based on my experience, I wouldnā€™t assume that a refusal from one staff member necessarily means the deal is ineligible. It may be worth trying again or speaking with another team member/manager, provided the deal meets the published Price Beat requirements.

          Without limiting consumers rights, Apple will provide its own remedies equivalent to those remedies in the consumer guarantee provisions of the Australian Consumer Law at any time within 24 months of the date of purchase. For the avoidance of doubt, Apple acknowledges that the Australian Consumer Law may provide for remedies beyond 24 months for a number of its products.

          According to Geekerwan, the A20 Pro (+ Vapour Chamber) is a massive leap over the A19 Pro chipset (+ Heatsink).

          In fact, over the entire industry. Today's iPhone 18 won't be matched by Samsung and Friends until Mid-2028 in terms of efficiency and performance. For all their faults, Apple can be innovative at times, and make their ludicrous pricing justifiable.

              @taki: I would say more than 2 years, holistically….. but that's by choice. Apple's choice, not yours. So I agree.

              My comment was only addressing the processor side of things. We lost the deep-dive insights from Anandtech years ago. Geekerwan is the best in the industry now, albeit in Mandarin, but translation works well.

              With that all said, the S27 seems to catch up to last year's iPhone 17, and is a massive leap on its own right. More importantly, the new Snapdragon Gen 6 Extreme (not Elite), it is said to use a new Driver Architecture, and this accelerates x86=ARM translation. So playing Windows 11 Apps and Games on your S27 Ultra is going to be feasible, and substantially faster than the S26 Plus/Ultra.

      Ikr, you can get the 18 for cheaper actually lol

      Better to sign up for Costco $65 with code NEW20 (and get $20 off voucher later on) = $45 outlay.

      Use OW to beat Costco's $2049 iPhone 18 price by 5%
      0.95*2049 = $1946.55

      +$45 outlay from earlier = $1991.55 for 18 Pro with a year of Costco Membership.

    • jar-unit on 27/09/2026 - 09:17

      It's not just that. It's the eco system, the polish of the software and how everything just works, no fiddling like on android. Also and most importantly to me, iPhones hold their price way better than Android phones so it's easier to sell for a decent price when you want to upgrade. That's also only because their products last a lot longer than Androids, they're more reliable. This is in general and in my experience from owning top tier Samsung Androids in the past which always had issues and didn't have the longevity or durability of the iPhone. Finally warranty via apple and customer support I found miles ahead of Samsung

    Ow do price match but its better if we dont see their staff in person, as mostly from s e asia will try to find a reason not to do the price match as they have brought up in an environment where they think everything is owned by them and something going out of their pocket if they discount.
    I think this business of making fake websites and list lower pricing is going bonkers these days. Lot of profit when mobile phoness are selling north of $1.5k for the cheapest model
    You make a website (cheap from overseas)- with few friends chipping in.
    List the new products like apple 20-25% discount
    Buy with ow at 5% discount

    Just if its helpful for anyone, I actually ordered from Skytree before and zero complaints. Could call and talk to someone at the store and was shipped almost right away. Had it quickly and it was genuine Aussie stock. When I activated the iPhone, it confirmed in my Apple account that the warranty was valid to 12 months from that date, so defs not refurb or used stock
