Seems like a good price comparing to other places or Trademe older ones.

The Accessories Bundle includes:

  • HERO11 Black
  • Spare Enduro Battery
  • The Handler
  • Head Strap + Quick Clip
  • 32GB SD Card

Using the subscription hack from OzBargain brings the price down to $650 (free shipping)

Decided to take one for the team and just tried the hack ordering a GoPro Hero11 Black.

Not sure if it'll work yet but here's what I did:

  • Transferred $580 onto my Visa debit card (because if they try to charge both amounts, in theory the second amount shouldn't go through)
  • Added Hero11 to cart for $649.95 ($579.96 + $69.99 for subscription, free shipping)
  • Entered my details, chose PayPal, placed order
  • Authorised $579.96 charge with PayPal
  • Got a success screen
  • Went to PayPal Automatic Payments and cancelled GoPro within 5 seconds
  • Checked PayPal Recent Activity and it says PENDING, "This is a temporary authorisation to make sure your payment method can cover the payment. Your payment method will be charged when GoPro Inc. completes your order"
  • Checked my Visa debit card balance, $0 has been charged so far
  • Clicked on GoPro's email link, created cloud account
  • Cancelled GoPro subscription, it says "Subscription end date September 22, 2023"
  • Checked GoPro subscription billing history, it was empty
  • About 10 mins later $579.96 was taken from my Visa debit card
  • PayPal Recent History is unchanged, still says Pending
  • Checked the Track My Order email from GoPro, it says "We don't see it, but hold tight”
  • It's been several hours but no emails as of yet saying subscription payment failed, just that the subscription has been cancelled

Note - I had tabs already open for PayPal so I could refresh and cancel quickly:

    These cameras are mighty impressive now. Is this a one off special or just what the price is now normally?

    I haven't been on the bandwagon since the 8, which honestly does all I need.

    $650 is mighty tempting though, if even just to get back replaceable front lenses etc.

    Need to check out what I can get 2nd hand for the 8…

    I’ve got the 10 and it’s fantastic.

    Always buy Gopro direct from their website because the prices and bundles can’t be beat.

  • coffeee on 13/10/2022 - 10:35

    just tried, will let you know how i got on.

    • coffeee on 13/10/2022 - 20:06

      got the invoice and tracking code

  • Griffo on 13/10/2022 - 13:05

    Oooh interesting! Hope it works for you all. I'll be following with interest. I'm a massive GoPro fan, I have the 9 and I just purchased the 11 a few days ago (haven't picked it up yet) from Torpedo7 as I could get it cheaper, and don't need those accessories as part of the deal. I've got a subscription already, but it's worth having if you own the camera.

    • Jaxson on 13/10/2022 - 13:12

      How did the torpedo 7 price for the 11 compare to this deal at $650?

      Did you have vouchers for example or use the hospitality deal etc?

      • Griffo on 13/10/2022 - 13:22

        I used the the Student discount code first, which is 15% off full price items, which comes down to $765. I had a voucher to use for the other $60 and I like the flybuys. Not cheaper than this deal, but cheaper for me personally as I already have accessories and a subscription.

        • Jaxson on 13/10/2022 - 13:28

          All good, how long have you had it and what are the thoughts? That new screen looks very appealing over the older info only ones.

          I'm in a similar boat, have the hero 8 and seriously looking at this. Just found the original box and have an extra battery etc. Some of that stuff won't be compatible with the newer ones so might be able to put together a bundle on marketplace that will sell. Could do someone for Christmas etc ahead of the coming summers activities.

    I am picking up the 11 today, can give an update later. There's definitely a market for second hand models, not sure how much they're selling for at the moment. I suspect I won't get much more than $450-500ish for my 9 with no accessories. I think you're right on the battery and protection cases on compatibility, however the mounts and stick holders should be fine with the 11 if you have those.

  • mdot on 13/10/2022 - 20:12

    Thanks, I went for this and did the trick. Will report back!

    • Jaxson on 13/10/2022 - 21:28

      You do anything extra to limit credit card available balance etc, or just go for it and cancel asap

      • coffeee on 13/10/2022 - 21:49
        +1

        i did have a $650 limit, you cancel the subscription after purchase but i dont think asap is required from what i read before purchasing, the invoice states the subscription is a separate order but not yet charged.

        Billing Date: 10/12/2022
        Term: Yearly
        GoPro will automatically renew for additional terms unless you cancel. You may cancel anytime by selecting Cancel Subscription in your account settings.

    • mdot on 14/10/2022 - 08:43

      Still no shipping info, but I did get an email saying my subscription payment "failed" and to retry

      • gierg on 14/10/2022 - 13:16

        should be all good. I did go through the whole process and only posted here once the Hero11 have arrived - it took 2 days for the shipping info email. Got like 4 failed payment emails so far - last one saying final notice and If the next charge fails, your account will be cancelled automatically

        • mdot on 14/10/2022 - 16:31
          +1

          Yep, just got the shipping info!

          • Jaxson on 14/10/2022 - 19:02

            @mdot: Good stuff team.

            Have listed my 8 on Facebook and will give this a go if I can move it.

              @Jaxson: How much did you list your 8 for?

              • Jaxson on 14/10/2022 - 21:16

                @KJKNZ: Went for $500 to start with based on others in my area. Mine comes with a spare battery and a third party triple charger as the batteries for the 11 etc are a different size.

                It’s in excellent condition and has all the original packaging so would make a cool gift for Christmas/birthday etc.

                  @Jaxson: Free selling on TM today @Jaxson, list it on there too.

                  • Jaxson on 15/10/2022 - 14:48

                    @Griffo: Yep on there and dropped the price a little bit too.

                    Thanks for the heads up team 👍🏻

    • Jaxson on 06/11/2022 - 15:47

      How did yours end up going in the end?

      Wondering how long the PayPal transaction shows as Pending for before it changes to approved…

  • Wakrak on 16/10/2022 - 20:49

    Accessories bundle is now $829.

    • Jaxson on 17/10/2022 - 13:57

      Wasn't it that before? I thought it's always been around $100 more.

      Still waiting to sell my old one. Missed an offer opportunity whilst I was on the phone at work sadly.

      Hero 11 base looks to include a 'Free Enduro Dual Battery Charger' now and when selected the cart includes a memory card and a second battery/dual charger for NZ$729.99

      • Wakrak on 17/10/2022 - 14:15

        It was $729 when OP posted this offer (HERO11 Black, Spare Enduro Battery, The Handler, Head Strap + Quick Clip, 32GB SD Card).

        Could reactivate it and change the bonuses mentioned in the title, but I'll let OP make that decision.

        • Jaxson on 17/10/2022 - 15:09

          Oh true, it must have changed pretty soon afterwards then as it's been that way for me for a while.

          Kinda waiting to see if there will be a better combo or price reduction deal at some stage, as the main deal on this currently is the subscription cancel work around.

    • apieceofpie on 30/10/2022 - 10:45

      Back down to $729. Happened to check yesterday.

    got mine today, soo stoked

    • Jaxson on 20/10/2022 - 20:48

      Did you do anything special for the payment?

      Don’t have easy access to a debit card so would need to purchase on a credit card and wondering if I’d have time to cancel the subscription prior to it being charged?

      • coffeee on 20/10/2022 - 22:41

        No, The go pro got charged and the subscription got added and was going to be charged the next day so i cancelled via paypal.

        • Jaxson on 21/10/2022 - 00:27

          Cool, thanks! 👍🏻

    • mr-deal on 31/10/2022 - 19:47

      For anyone who made the purchase, was the net amount you were charged $650?

      • coffeee on 31/10/2022 - 21:30

        yes.

    • Jaxson on 06/11/2022 - 15:46

      How long did it take for your PayPal activity transaction to change from Pending to approved?

      • coffeee on 06/11/2022 - 16:16
        +1

        like a day, i got the shipping info before it got approved.

        • Jaxson on 08/11/2022 - 08:30

          Got it. Invoice email arrived and PayPal status changed from pending. Nice one 👍🏻

  • hugecannons on 15/11/2022 - 21:15

    Did this and can confirm it's still working as of 15/11/22 - GoPro has arrived! Thanks!
