richms: Go to their site and there is a massive background ad for a sale. Goes to an error page. That is why you are a fail dick smith.

I think it is also potentially misleading when they advertise a sale, but there isn't a way to access it at all, and it just goes to an error page. Looks like they updated their website now for a friday sale, but people missed out on the Thursday one day deals because of the bad links, or whether there was ever a sale or not.

The store was the fullest I have seen it. I was not the only customer in there. Plenty of people looking at the small tvs for a decent discount off the normal price so down to about what they should be at. Heaps of orange pricetags were not out yet so there may have been more that was cheap. Lots of $1 and $2 phone covers if you are into mainstream phones.

So all in all, you got some good deals you would say?

Supposedly tomorrow they will be launching a 70% off everything sale, that's the rumour supposedly. I will eat my hat if they did that to Apple products.....

I can't see how they could discount by that much, as they would surely be making losses. I suspect Apple stuff will likely be removed, because the the most I have ever seen something apple related discounted by, is 40%

DSE dont have good range of product and focus on their home brand. They was trying to sell branded electronic and up sell the home branded accessories with high margin (like SD card and HDMI cable)

Why they dont get good range? because they were asking high rebate from supplier while other electronic retailer at about half of what DSE asking. No one really want to supply DSE and only supply 2nd tier product to DSE.

Without good range of quality product, customer dont want to go into the store and they are stuck with 2nd tier brand product and lost of home branded (more like no brand) stock.
