The disclaimer about limited quantities covers them, as they say you have to be in it to win it.

It seemed a big promotion for a small amount of equipment, but i'm sure it generated a lot of interest. I know I clicked through and wondered how to grab a couple of seeming bargains.

achjimmy · « **Reply #13 on:** May 16, 2013, 10:10:45 AM »

Agree Jules, plus I'd rather not go into the Moorebank HQ store ever again. Closest I ever came to punching somebody out in a shop was in there. If that was the only way to buy ARB gear I wouldn't have any.

The sale is on Saturday and to quote their ad:

Items listed cannot be pre-purchased or put on hold. A first in, best dressed principle will apply on Saturday.

Hmmmm, Insider trading.

Post from another site from ARB

QUOTE="ARB 4X4 Accessories;1912745"]Hi guys, just a note for clarification.

Whilst there are some great bargains available, in most cases, the items listed on the clearance lists aren't available in multiples. The awning at Kilsyth for example is a one off. Likewise there are only 3 of the fridges available at Nundah.

Basically, unless otherwise stated, the items listed are individual items as they are factory seconds, discontinued and superseded items. The clearance doesn't included current showroom stock.

It's also worth noting that the clearance is only being held at the main store/HQ in each state. The list of participating stores is available using the OPs link, above.

Hope you can grab a bargain on Saturday.

Cheers, Sam.[/QUOTE]

BigJules · « **Reply #16 on:** May 16, 2013, 07:54:35 PM »

I think the sale would have been more impressive if all stores had participated, with whatever stock they wished to clear.

ozbogwam · « **Reply #17 on:** May 16, 2013, 08:30:29 PM »

Those participating are ARB owned stores, not stores that sell ARB stuff

BigJules · « **Reply #18 on:** May 16, 2013, 08:58:44 PM »

Sure, I get that. And I'm not ragging on ARB, someone over there has bought a house based on my preference for their equipment.

I am just saying that as a piece of marketing, they reached far and wide, but with seemingly very little on offer.

i thought much the same when i looked at what was on offer, didn't seem like much really. going on an earlier reply in this thread, you have to wonder what'll be there on the day as it sounds like some of it is spoken for already.

evolution · « **Reply #20 on:** May 16, 2013, 09:08:28 PM »

Im with you on that jules, we have an ARB corporate store in albury, but no sale on here.
A lot of hype for very little products.

Cheers

Just got back from ARB Kilsyth. I rocked up at 7.30 and there were already about 30 guys waiting outside the locked gates. I had my eye on the 2.5m awning but resigned myself to missing out when I saw half the group on the footpath ran the 100m length of the carpark when the gates opened.
When I strolled into the warehouse there were four awnings being carried out; so I did have a chance but alas was too late.
I did but a pair of IPF HIR spotlights for $200, which I think is about half price as well as some other odds and ends.

McGirr · « **Reply #22 on:** May 18, 2013, 11:15:42 AM »

Not as bad as the BCF after 6.00pm sales they have. Very little stock on sale. Went to one in Cairns and it was a joke.

sorry back to the ARB sale.

V8CRSA · « **Reply #23 on:** May 18, 2013, 12:31:49 PM »

We also jointed the crowd waiting at the gate, were resigned to missing out when everyone started running as we had our 10 month old son with us.
Ended up getting a 12000 lb warn winch for a good price.
Didn't really want one that big, but for the price hard to knock back.

Was worth the drive there, also had a quick chat to a fellow myswag get but didn't grab a name.....

Cheers Matt
