Just wanted to let you guys know that Dick Smith are selling the Logitech G27 for $139 starting today. Was considering just putting it in the DSE thread, but I thought it should have it's own thread for more publicity, so can delete/ merge if mods want.

It's in store only meaning that the price online is still $499.

Grab a bargain while you can :)

I think Innaloo one is open today too. Doesn't hurt to try call them up.

Nothing else is on special yet (that I know of), as the big gaming sale starts tomorrow.

If you go onto the DSE website, it should show you which stores have stock so you know where not to waste your time at :)

Sell for $400+ once the sale ends. :P

Might shoot down to the city store tomorrow if my partner has no luck at Gateways, especially now that my HKS controller has called it quits and EAGL3 refuse to reply to my emails...

I got one thanks to Tyson being a great mate and grabbing.one for me as well as himself, what a revelation compared to using the hand controller on GT5!

Reeled off PB after PB at Monza in the Formula Gran Turismo.. brilliant.

If its nationwide price they legally have to? Kick up a fuss?

Or try your luck at a Harvey's through price matching... :p

Anyone have a receipt showing price? May try printing out and taking that in for price match

Yep I just called Innaloo and he goes "nope, still $499" and could also hear someone in the background telling a customer the $139 was a mistake.

$139 was a pricing error, but they had to honour it for the day as pricing changes come through the system over night.

*shrugs* Makes sense I guess.

It is only $100 extra from LogitechShop anyway, might grab one later. Does anyone know what the actual anticipated sale price of the G27s are for DSE when they begin discounting everything fo' real?

I was at Rockingham at opening and they didnt have any at $139... but heaps at $499

One guy I spoke to said it was false info and they were not on sale.... another guy (watching the door to make sure no one thieves) asked why I was leaving without anything and I told him the story. He then said that the "real" sale didn't start till later in April and they may be reduced then?!?!?! Who knows.

Woollies are selling DSE off and an official announcement is happening internally on wednesday so anyone claiming anything is just speculating for now.
They are selling gaming stock as part of a new gaming direction with the company as part of the sale of the company.

Harvey Norman just did a 50% off all games...didn't mean they were closing down

If Woolworths are offloading it, it means it isnt performing though.

Be interesting to see how it goes longer term.

They don't have to do anything... They can offer a good at any price they desire, then we as the consumer can purchase or tell them to eat a dick.
