    Faking association with a partner to receive discount doesn't feel honest to me.

    • +2

      Fair enough.

      FYI, T&C's say you can purchase for friends and family - so this is potentially a wide reaching deal anyway. Since you just need to know someone who's is in a partnered organisation.

      • Is there any comeback from faking an email associated with a partner in the T&C's?

        • No, but it may tighten up protocols and they can easily track you down from the recipient's address for shipping the item..

        • Not sure what you mean 'comeback'.

          But sure, your account is not a 'valid and active Sony Partner account', so it's within their rights to terminate your account and cancel your order.

          • @0o0: Yea just that, comeback being cancel the order. Will be interesting to see how this plays out. Not after this deal personally.

  • Ordered, thanks.

    Great deal. Any idea who are Sony partners apart from Vodafone and Spark?

  • Cheers for that!

  • Was really not planning on buying this since overseas flights will be off the cards for a while still but I couldn't miss out on this deal!

  • So this is cheaper than the other deal was that 399? And direct from Sony! How likely are they going to check up on the email you supplied and cancel orders from deliberate misuse of the partner programme?

  • Cry face. Got new headphones yesterday.

    Managed to pick up a pair, and used a friends partner account to comply with the T's&C's! Thanks OP

    • Any chance you'd be able to buy on my behalf? Very keen to nab a pair but not sure if I'm a partner as work for a dhb

      • +1

        I could buy on your behalf, if you want

        • +1

          That'd be great. DM me and we can work something out

        • Updated my settings to allow dm. Didn't even know you had to turn it on

  • Ordered a pair, great price!

    • What constitutes a partner ? Very keen to get one but not sure what organizations are a partner

      • Vodafone or Spark

  • Did anyone buy this with a fake spark/vodafone email address ? kind of scared

    • +1

      yeah, the worst that can happen is they cancel the order…
      You can always make a new account if you want to use their website in the future

  • What email address does the confirmation email go to?

    • You can use your own email (ie. hotmail, gmail etc.)

  • Silly question, how on earth do you obtain this deal? I know no one from Vodafone or Spark

    • Go to sony store, create an account using a random email address ending in @spark.co.nz or @vodafone.co.nz. Partner prices will appear straight away. What happens from there, unsure.

  • How do you exactly get a associated account?

    • +1

      Go to sony online store, create an account using a random email address ending in @spark.co.nz or @vodafone.co.nz. Partner prices will appear straight away

  • This is a steal. Would definitely grab a pair if I hadn't got them from Container Door.

  • I ordered using a fake email.

    It did ask for email address on the order, but no confirmation came through on personal email.

    Order is also not showing under order history.

    I did take screenshot of order summary and order number tho. Will see if it shows up. lol

    • Any order confirmation yet or have they charged your credit card?

      • Credit card was charged, no confirmation email (probably went to vodafone one).

        Found this tracking tool, it says received, but not yet confirmed.

        https://store.sony.co.nz/track

        • My experience was all order emails got sent to the email used for the order not the email on the account.

          • @0o0: Did you get your order confirmed?

  • +1

    No more special price, back to normal price of $599 now

    • Thrashed.

    • It's now $50/10% off

  • lame, just called an old friend at one of the telcos and promised him lunch to use his email for this…. and now the deal expires lol

  • Yea this was posted on other tech deal sites Sony must have been going whoa wtf is this shit!!!

    • +1

      what site it that?

      • Gpforums I think

    • also wondering which other site it was posted on?

  • I've had an email sent to me from Sony last night with the tracking number however it is still saying 'number not found'

    Anyone else in the same boat?

    • Thats positive though if you received an email… What time did you place your order? and can you keep us updated with regards to the tracking as well as if and when you receive the headphones please!!!

      • I ordered around 2pm yesterday and instantly got an email sent to my personal email (I used a fake spark email to sign up). The invoice with the tracking number was sent last night at 8.30pm. My order status on the sony website now says 'shipped'.

        I've sent an email to the courier company (Fliway) asking them to check.

        • thats great mate. i forgot to change the email to personal while ordering so hvnt been getting any updates. though the online order page says not shipped awaiting stock. :(

        • Pretty sure it'll be delivered by CourierPost not Fliway. Fliway is for larger products, i.e. TV.

          The tracking number they send you is a reference number which can't be used at CourierPost/nzpost tracking.

            • @rb3xu: Still comes up as not found, but looks like it might be getting shipped from Aus

              • @enrix: do they update the order history page on the website with the tracking details too?

              • @enrix: this site can track anything from the world.

        • I just got an email to confirm dispatch. If I now search for my order through https://store.sony.co.nz/track it says "out for delivery"

        • I ordered 12:17; accepted 12:29; out for delivery 12:12 today.

          • @debo: Ordered yesterday 11:38; Accepted yesterday 11:44; Out for Delivery 12:12 today…. I think the "Out for Delivery" is BS!

            • @Skengman: Mine is now showing out for delivery too. Btw who is the courier company?

              • @kronosxmate: The tracking link works for me now, seems to be being handled by flyway? It does say -
                "Please note: If this is a home delivery, scheduled dates above may not apply.
                Our Delivery Depot will be in touch to arrange a suitable delivery date "

    • On the website does it still say processing order? Mine says order accepted but not shipped. I also didn’t enter my personal email

  • It looks like the partner price for pretty much everything has gone up now. Lame.

  • Mine is also on the way.

  • Mine is also "Out for delivery", maybe wait for tomorrow to arrive

  • Arrived this morning :)

    • who was the courier company?

      • It's NZ Post/Courier Post. Mine were attempted delivery this morning and they left a card to call without knocking on the door.

      • Not sure they just dropped it off and knocked. Although the fliway tracking still doesn't work for me. Best to track order from Sony website itself.

      • DHL.

  • Arrived just now , Headphone brand sew sealed from Sony as expected, ( and yes i used the random email address with vodafone.co.nz )that was a lot of savings

  • Received the headphone this morning

  • My headphones say they were delivered but are not at the apartment, does anyone know who I would contact about this?

    The tracking link takes me here: https://online.fliway.com/Public/Track/?id=SON6052070

    • Track down Kate

    • Call Fliway and ask them who kate is??

    • Same here. Fliway tracking says it was delivered in Wellington but I'm in Christchurch. Also, tracking says 12 items but should only be 1.

    • Same in Chc but mine was delivered by DHL this morning

    • I called Sony customer support and they gave me a new tracking number. This time its courier post. Looks like it is still at chch airport to be delivered Monday.

  • I missed out on these but it got me looking at headphones, have been wanting to change from wired Bose QuietComfort 25 to a wireless pair for a while cos my phone hates the Bose connection. Ended up getting Sony WHXB900N for $265 from Noel Leeming ($449 priced matched with Harvey Norman (their sale ends today)). They're great, noice cancelling isn't quite as good as the Bose, but they sound great and blocked lots of noise on the plane yesterday, yay freedom.
    Anyone in Wellington after 2x Bose QuietComfort 25 ? still good.
