brisvegas1 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 (edited) Just paid $4400 for my 508XDA from Myers. Hopefully doesnt take too long to turn up. Is that for the 42 inch 428xda / or the 50 inch 508xda? And if it is the 50 inch - well done!! Any chance you could post a scan of the receipt?

Any chance you could post a scan of the receipt? Second that (er third that), oh smudge out your private details of course. If your can, which Myers as well will assist also . The extra $100 on the my Myers One card makes this a good buy. Did you buy anything extra such as a blue ray player etc to help get this price?

50mxe20 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 At the Dockers sale (October 4th) in Perth the price for the 508 was cost plus 5%, which came out at $4,750. Of course cost price can vary from store to store depending on sales volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fordfalcon Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 i was at the launch of the kuro at GBI (wholesaler) for pioneer and it was compared side by side to the 7th gen pioneer, panasonic th42px70a, sony lcd on the up side it had true blacks and colour depth was amazing but on the down side it was as sharp as a bowling ball the lcd looked sharper hahahahahaha heres a first!

I wonder if the group price is in the same region, hard to believe it'll be much cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(if you are confused by this reference - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060672/)Come on - don't tease - post your receipt. Why do you all need a receipts? If you are serious about buying then take that amount in cash and wave it under the nose of you local Pio retailer and say: "If you can match this price here's the cash". Don't don't haggle any further (up or down) and don't blink! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peacekeeper Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 If you are posting scans of receipts ensure to remove any reference to Credit Cards and personal details. My Myers guy would not talk any low price without a signed quote from a competitor, so asking for a scan of the receipt is proof and an assistance we all are not brave enough to carry $4000 on us .

RodN Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 The receipt ensures that people aren't telling furfies.... block out the private stuff of course. I'm really amazed at these prices! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peacekeeper Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 (edited) Alright, I'll bite."When things seem too good to be true, go with that thought." <Flame suit on> Not a flame but a suggestion The guy could be asleep after a hard night shift work.. one does have to remember we all are not online 24/hr that is why I missed the GB. See what the weekend brings though I was going to Myers today (with the reciept) to haggle. Will try a empty hand haggle.

xdZ Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 (edited) Im stuck at work till sometime this afternoon with dinner plans. Ill see what i can do way of "proof"... Has anyone even tried to get this price or are you just waiting for a jpg that takes all the fun out of shopping around and haggling? Myers buy price would be the same Australia wide. This price could be below the buy price as there was a note re: price match on receipt. I didnt take much notice of the store or even meantioned another company/price. I didnt even pay cash, i was going to but they didnt mind if i popped it on the cc. Saved me a trip to the bank before i headed into work today. Maybe my Myers hasnt sold a 508XDA yet and really wanted to get one out the door. Either way the manager was called to auth the sale and congratulated me on purchasing a lovely plasma. Sad to see the naysayer.. Ive been a member since 04 with a very lurker-ish ~100 posts. Hardly troll-ish.. :\ Edited October 13, 2007 by xdZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xdZ Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 What was the jist of this note? I orginally called up and discussed the price over the phone as i wasnt going to head into the mall if they wouldnt even budge from ticket price (RRP $5499. Save $300 = $5199). The sales guy put me on hold for 5 minutes to check if he could sell it for $4400, my only offer and a figure i got from this forum. The sales guy returned from hold and said they could. I requested he note down the call/price for when i came in. I headed to the mall and found the sales guy who referenced notebook where i seen my name, mobile #, model # and then what looked like scribble in another hand writing "price match $4400".

Well done mate. You've got yourself a very good price. Nice to have a salesman just say 'yes'! Did you also get the $100 Myer Card gift vouchers or whatever it is they give you?
