  • I always wonder how they're able to do these "worth $985" bundles with most new phone purchases. Are the margins that high?

    • +1

      Not this high, but they get rebates/cashback from companies when new products are launched. So some of the promotions are dictated by the company itself.

      Correct me if I am wrong.

      • +8

        and the bundles aren't really worth what the RRP says…

    • The phone will have little margin, they may be getting a kickback/discount from the supplier (this is where most "sale" prices come from from) as a new product. Usually in the form of a rebate to the seller after a sale (so the "cost" price stays the same).

      The supplier is also generally the one providing the freebies too (other stores will generally be offering the same in these cases - but not always. Asking will often get you the freebies if they aren't offered). Obviously they cost the supplier a lot less than the RRP.

      Could be the the store offering in this case. But it seems unlikely.

  • I ordered mine from Samsung Educayion store. Fold3 and Aramid case $2208 delivered. These combo deals are good but not worth it tbh.

    Student price @ Samsung
    - Galaxy Z Fold3 5G $2159.20
    - Galaxy Z Flip3 5G $1279.20

    Work access price @ Samsung
    - slightly cheaper

    • How do you get work access other than working for samsung?

      • Guess it depends on your place of work and if they have an account with Samsung. My work doesn't but another Cheapo on here has access.

        • Yes i do have access to Samsung employee discount through my work. I have had problems with access and asks me to reset password every time i login - such a pain. But don’t buy anything Samsung

            @cheapo: I wasn’t referring to you specifically in my comment but heck it’s comical that it lined up 😄

              @Wakrak: I've been thinking about this hilarious coincidence all day

  • Damm how do you get access to work access pricing?

  • +1

    Instead of giving un-necessary charger/headphones, they should just give direct rebate on the mobiles, be it just $300-$400, i bet many people would prefer this option.

    ps. that power bank, i have 3 already all from previous PB's bundle promos.

    • That bundle likely only costs them sub $150. Certainly no where near the RRP

      • Bundle includes $200 gift card.

        I see that bundle in the range of $400-$500.

    • +2

      Some consumers get a “retail high” when gifts are included in the purchase instead of a cash back. Instead of getting a hit of dopamine for buying the phone with a cash back, they get a larger amount of dopamine from purchasing the phone, headphones, powerbank, etc.

  • Bonus Bundle Worth Upto $985 Calculation

    Samsung 3 IN 1 Wireless Charger $159 (RRP)
    Sennheiser PXC 550-II $349 at the Market
    PB Tech Gift Card $200

    Total bundle worth $708

    Still not too bad

  • +1

    As per my math

    Sennheiser PXC 550-II ~ $220
    PB Tech Gift Card ~ $200
    Samsung 3 IN 1 Wireless Charger ~ $30

    Total bundle value ~ $450

    So Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 comes to $1147.99.
    This is better price than the other Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G(old model) $1,149 listed in other thread.

  • Intrigued by the Flip. I feel like I'd need to go try it out and see if it'd fit in my pocket first though.

    I did a bit of digging around and the best deal I think is with Harvey Norman - https://www.harveynorman.co.nz/phone-and-gps/mobile-phones/a…
    If you buy through Spark thats $300 off and you get a $500 HN voucher which like me you will have to use to buy your wife the new iPhone in October so she stops bothering you about spending over $2k on a phone…
