mattwnz: Unlike some stores, I have found the warehouse are good at honoring orders for errors they make. The warehouse stationary with their LG smart watch is a case in point. It does instill a lot of goodwill in the company when they do honour them.


Yet they're owned by the same parent company...

I agree the warehouse is good at honoring prices on their website.
A few weeks ago I got a really good discount (almost 50% off) on just released lego due to the way the discount was done for online purchases (buy 1 and get a discount on the 2nd however the discount was applied to both items not just the 2nd item).
Warehouse sent it out no questions asked and they even kept the deal going for another 7 days.

Yes, that is why I am saying they are good at honoring errors they make across their retail brands.

Warehouse Stationary did honour the LG watch, everyone that ordered one got one.  It did take them a few hours to sort it out and a lot of people complaining on message boards

What gets me is that if any of the companies (the warehouse, noelleemings etc) have a sale on cellphones then WHS will beat it by 5% even if they are owned by the same group.

I think they have pretty good management at the Warehouse. Any problems I have had, they have dealt with it well.

I Don't think those games were actually included, the warehouse often includes info on the product page that says stuff like that, what it means is add those games to your cart also to get a reduced price for games and console as a bundle.

Still a ridiculously good deal even without games...

I didn't think the games were included as well, however others here said they were.

Either way, great price as above post says.

Mines just arrived too. FYI, digital games from the US store are cheaper than buying NZ. Just need to buy credit from Amazon.

I've been looking into that, what's the best practise with that? Just setup a US account from the get go or setup a NZ account and a US account on the same machine?

Do you have to create a USA PSN account? if you install the games and switch account to an NZ one can you still play them?

NZGameshop sell some cheap games for digital download that require a US PSN account as well. e.g. http://www.nzgameshop.com/ps4-games/the-last-of-us-remastered-ps4-psn-digital-download-game-usa-psn-required
