I recently bought an ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 with an Intel Ultra 9, 32 GB of RAM, a 2 TB SSD, and an RTX 5080 from JB Hi-Fi for 3400 AUD.
I’ve only been in Australia for a short time and my English is still not perfect, so I understood about 60% of what the salesperson was explaining to me.
From what I understood, the laptop originally cost 3500 AUD, but then he spoke with the manager to give me a discount and include one accessory. In the end, I chose a laptop sleeve that cost 159 AUD.
However, when I got home and checked the invoice more carefully, I noticed that the laptop itself was listed at 3080 AUD, the sleeve at 159 AUD, and then there was another 159 AUD charge for a 3-year antivirus subscription for 2 devices.
Before assuming the salesperson was being dishonest or calling the store and potentially embarrassing myself, I wanted to ask if anyone knows whether JB Hi-Fi has bundle deals or promotions where an antivirus is included in order to get a discount. Since my English is still a bit shaky, it’s possible that the salesperson actually said something like: “I can do 3400 instead of 3500 and include an antivirus plus one accessory of your choice.”
What do you guys think?
Before anyone asks: yes, this post was corrected with AI, my English definitely isn’t this good yet 😅
