    Yes I have also been told the same by a salesman that TiVo has told them they can't give heavy discounts to a TiVo sale as they want their RRP pricing to stay firm.

    Dick Smith offered me $650, but it seems hard to go under that. I will keep a look out too.

    Seems TiVo are happy to do the discounting themselves as when North Sydney DSE re-opened a couple of weeks ago, they had a dude dressed in a TiVo outfit handing out $100 discount vouchers.

    Jeremy, I have also approached TiVo themselves to see if they can throw around a deal for us or some of their discount vouchers for a group buy. They have passed my request onto a specialised team within the company to discuss. Will post any news here as it comes through.

    Picked up a TiVo HD from JB HiFi Hornsby (northern Sydney) for $600 on Thursday evening (TiVo only. No network adapter)

    They had a pile with a sign on top. It had $699 crossed out and 'ask for a deal'.
    No negotiating; the salesman offered $600 up front and I took it

    That would be great - I hope this goes through as I am really after more TiVo boxes. Ill just add that I am now after 2 TiVo HD boxes instead of one as I originally posted. Please keep the details coming as the info comes though.

    Just a quick update that nothing has come through yet from TiVo. Looks like I will have to go chasing them. Will do so today.

    I have just noticed on Whirlpool that DOMINOES employees can get a TiVo for $499 including wireless. Anyone know someone that works there to suss out how this deal works?

    This morning I have been able to find them for $580 (bulk purchase, excluding wirless adapter).

    BUT it has now become more about the hunt to match $499 with wireless then it has about actualy owning one.

    Seems like TiVo don't want to talk about a bulk purchase. Still no response after a second chase-up. Even a NO reply would be appreciated if that's their response!

    I'll keep you posted.
