EOFY sales 2026: The event is officially over, but there are still a handful of bargains to grab

Money money money.

Once upon a time in Australia there were only two times of the year when you could count on buying stuff cheap: Boxing Day, and during the End of Financial Year sales, which usually start rolling out in late May and run through to the end of June. While the likes of Black Friday and Cyber Monday have stolen a little of EOFY's lustre, it's still a very big deal—especially among smaller retailers.

I've been keeping this page updated throughout June. With the arrival of July, the EOFY deals should officially be over. That said, some bargains from the likes of Mwave, or Amazon, or the Razer Aussie shopfront, will probably stick around for a while.

If nothing takes your fancy, keep in mind that early July will bring Amazon Prime Day sales, though given what Amazon stocks, that'll likely be more of a peripheral (think headsets, mice, keyboards) fest.

Without further ado:

EOFY sales 2026: the best retailers to watch

Gamepads and controllers

8Bitdo Ultimate C wired controller
Save 25% (AU$20)
8Bitdo Ultimate C wired controller: was AU$79.95 now AU$59.95 at Amazon

If you're after a simple but durable gamepad to use at your desk, this 8Bitdo is definitely worth a look. Not only does it have drift-free hall effect analog sticks, but base of the sticks also have RGB. It's a wired only affair, so unless you've got a big cord, it's probably not designed for couch play. This isn't the best price we've seen, because it was down to AU$47.96 last year.

GameSir Nova Lite
Save 29% (AU$13)
GameSir Nova Lite: was AU$45 now AU$32 at Amazon

Our favourite budget PC controller gets a discount that brings it into impulse-buy territory. There's a lot to love at this price point: 2.4Ghz wireless connectivity, Bluetooth, a wired option via the Type-C port, and ten hours of battery life. The build quality isn't the sturdiest going around, and there's no audio jack, but this is a great piece of kit for well under AU$50.

SCUF Instinct Pro controller 
Save 27% (AU$100.99)
SCUF Instinct Pro controller : was AU$379.99 now AU$279 at Amazon

This SCUF pad is all about customisation thanks to its remappable back paddles, instant triggers, and solid build. We reviewed this model well back in 2021, but it no longer ranks among the best PC gaming controllers. The price here is on the Grey and Red controllers. It's been down to AU$249 in the past, but AU$279 is still pretty good.

Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra
Save AU$176.47
Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra: was AU$329.95 now AU$153.48 at Amazon

This beauty used to be our favourite drift-free hall effect gamepad before it was dethroned by the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro, so if you're in the market for one, this is a decent price. I still love this controller and use it daily, especially due to its super-tactile microswitches. The onboard display is more useful than you'd think, and while the RGB is a little superfluous, it feels extremely good in the hands. Read my 90 / 100 review if you're unconvinced.

Headsets

Corsair Void v2 Wireless
Save 32% (AU$60)
Corsair Void v2 Wireless: was AU$189 now AU$129 at Amazon

A nice cut off this relatively new set of gaming cans with some great features: Dolby Atmos, dual wireless (connect to two things at once!) and fast charging for the battery with 70 hours capacity. We reviewed it ilast year and it held up well, though we did bemoan its "reliance on bloatware" and the lack of a wired connection. It also has a very, uh, distinctive look. Was down to AU$119 last year.

HyperX Cloud III wireless gaming headset
Save 27% (AU$76.16)
HyperX Cloud III wireless gaming headset: was AU$279 now AU$202.84 at Amazon

The Cloud II was a go-to if you wanted a sturdy, mid-range wired gaming headset. This wireless follow-up is decently specced for its price, with angled 53mm drivers, a detachable "ultra-clear" mic, and DTS Headphone:X Spatial Audio.

JBL Quantum 100M2
Save 53% (AU$31.95)
JBL Quantum 100M2: was AU$59.95 now AU$28 at Amazon

If you're hell bent on keeping costs low, JBL’s Quantum 100M2 is cheap as chips—especially if you happen to be buying AU$28 worth of chips. These aren't fancy but they do work, with a boom mic, breathable ear cushions, and a stripped-back design.

JBL Quantum 360 Wireless
Save 30% (AU$50.95)
JBL Quantum 360 Wireless: was AU$169.95 now AU$119 at Amazon

Here's JBL's stab at the mid-range market. We haven't reviewed these but if you're after an affordable wireless headset it could be worth investigation: boasts up to 22 hours of battery life, a flip-up boom mic, JBL QuantumSURROUND tech and compatibility across PC and consoles (not to mention smartphones). Was down to AU$99 last year, so not the best deal, but a deal all the same.

Logitech  G PRO X 2 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Headset 
Save AU$181.95
Logitech G PRO X 2 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Headset : was AU$449.95 now AU$268 at Amazon

It's perfectly understandable if you don't want to fork out AU$450 for a gaming headset. You're not alone! But maybe this drastic reduction makes it a bit more doable. This is a pro-level headset with 50mm graphene drivers, DTS:X Headphone 2.0—7.1 Surround, Bluetooth, USB and 3.5mm connectivity, and support for PC, PS5, PS4 and Nintendo Switch.

Save 19% (AU$43.87)
8BitDo Retro 108: was AU$229.95 now AU$186.08 at Amazon

This Nintendo-themed mechanical keyboard is a wireless affair with support for both Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz wireless. Despite having the appearance of a novelty item, it is a fully functioning piece of kit that will delight anyone who likes fancy-flavoured PC peripherals.

Asus ROG Azoth 75% wireless gaming keyboard (white)
Save 30% (AU$120)
Asus ROG Azoth 75% wireless gaming keyboard (white): was AU$399 now AU$279 at Amazon

This is a decent price for this gorgeous 75% keyboard (though not as great as 2025 Black Friday's AU$229). It has both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity, amazing gasket mount keys, and an OLED display at the top right corner so that you don't always have to use Asus's (often annoying) desktop software. Only the white is going for this price, though black is only a couple of dollars more.

Corsair K70 RGB Pro
Save AU$90
Corsair K70 RGB Pro: was AU$249 now AU$159 at Amazon

A welcome discount on this premium slab, which happens to be my day-to-day workhorse. The RGB is typically stunning, and the build is very robust: you could use it to knock out an intruder. It features 8,000Hz hyper-polling, 4,000Hz key scanning, PBT Double-shot Pro keycaps and yeah: it looks great.

Corsair K70 CORE TKL Wireless
Save 32% (AU$80)
Corsair K70 CORE TKL Wireless: was AU$249 now AU$169 at Amazon

40 percent off this tenkeyless wireless keyboard, which has a 1000Hz polling rate, ABS double-shot keycaps, and pre-lubed MLX Red v2 linear switches. We haven't tested this one, but I use the K70 RGB Pro every day and love it. This isn't the lowest we've seen this model, that being AU$130 during Boxing Day.

Corsair K65 Plus Wireless
Save 24% (AU$60)
Corsair K65 Plus Wireless: was AU$249 now AU$189 at Amazon

A decent discount on this well-regarded 75% size mechanical gaming keyboard. It has an elegant and reserved aesthetic, but it's a true powerhouse when it comes to gaming performance, with hot-swappable pre-lubed caps and dual-layer sound dampening. Was down to AU$179 last year.

Corsair K55 Core Membrane
Save 27% (AU$21.95)
Corsair K55 Core Membrane: was AU$79.95 now AU$58 at Amazon

This discount makes an affordable keyboard much more so, dipping it into impulse buy territory. Membrane keyboards aren't for everyone - they lack the gratifying tactility of their mechanical siblings—but if you like 'em, or are curious, this is a trick. It's a wired affair with ten-zone RGB, spill resistance, and—naturally unusually quiet button presses.

Logitech G G213 Prodigy: was AU$129.95 now AU$72 at Amazon

Save 20% (AU$1,000)
Asus ROG Strix G16 | Core Ultra 9 | RTX5070Ti | 32GB | 1TB: was AU$4,899 now AU$3,899 at Mwave

Here's a nice 5070Ti machine from Asus with a grand lopped off the price for EOFY, and you can grab it now. The 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX is a serious gaming powerhouse, and it can pull up to 65W when under load so it won't be starved of juice. It's the RTX 5070Ti we like best in this rig, being the laptop sweet-spot GPU of the moment. There's free shipping on this deal too.

MSI MSI Raider 18 HX | Core Ultra 9 | RTX5090 | 64GB | 2TB+2TB: was AU$9,999 now AU$8,499 at Mwave

Yes, the AU$1,500 discount here is more than the total cost of many laptops, but this is no ordinary beast, it's basically the best of everything. That means an RTX5090, an Intel Core Ultra 9 285HX, 65GB of RAM and 2x2TB of SSD storage. Everything else is top-tier, too, including Wi-Fi 7 and an 18-inch miniLED screen. It was down to AU$7,498 during Black Friday but... well, everything is pricier now.

Monitors

Save 24% (AU$110)
Gigabyte M27Q2 QD: was AU$449 now AU$339 at Mwave

MWave is among the major local retailers offering this 27 inch "super speed" IPS QHD screen for AU$110 off. You're mostly paying for the impressive 210Hz refresh rate on this one, but it also has Gigabyte's Quantum Dot Technology and four-sided cooling.

MSI MPG 272URX
Save 39% (AU$700)
MSI MPG 272URX: was AU$1,799 now AU$1,099 at Mwave

This compact 27 inch OLED MSI beauty boasts a 4K resolution with a blistering 240Hz refresh rate—if you've got the hardware to make the most of it. Obviously this is a pricey panel with the discount or not, but we can vouch for its quality. In his 85 / 100 review, Jeremy Laird admired its pixel density, pixel speed and great HDR experience, while bemoaning its price.

Philips Envia 3000 27M2N3800F UHD 27 inch gaming monitor
Save 30% (AU$150)
Philips Envia 3000 27M2N3800F UHD 27 inch gaming monitor: was AU$499 now AU$349 at Mwave

A nice 'n' neat saving off this affording 4K IPS monitor, boasting a 160Hz refresh rate and DisplayHDR 400. In our review of this model earlier this year, we wrote that this is Philips' attempt to make 4K gaming "mainstream", and given the price point it's fair to say this one's accessible for most people in the market for a new gaming monitor.

Samsung Odyssey G5 G55C: was AU$369 now AU$209 at Mwave

Look: this is a pretty great price for a curved 27 inch QHD display with a 165Hz refresh rate, and if you're looking for a reliable second screen the price is verily right. Boasts HDR10, AMD FreeSync and a 1ms response time. Very tempting "for a rainy day" pick up.

Mice

Corsair Sabre v2 Pro
Save 36% (AU$60)
Corsair Sabre v2 Pro: was AU$169 now AU$109 at Amazon

The Corsair Sabre V2 Pro is one of PC Gamer's best reviewed gaming mice of 2025. Jacob Fox loved its near-impossible lightness (36g!), app-free ease of use, brilliant sensor and robust build, though didn't like that it can only store one onboard profile. Look at the specs: 8,000Hz Hyper-Polling, 33,000 DPI, and up to 70 hours of battery life.

Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed

Razer DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed: was AU$179.95 now AU$109 at Amazon

This Razer rodesnt used to be our favourite wireless gaming mouse; it's since been ursurped by the Razer Viper V4 Pro but that is also more than double this discounted price. The DeathAdder V3 Hyperspeed is comfortable, fast, accurate, and as far as gaming mice go, elegantly presented.

Handheld PCs

ASUS ROG Xbox Ally
Save 15% (AU$150)
ASUS ROG Xbox Ally: was AU$999 now AU$849 at Mwave

If you're curious about this collab between Asus and Microsoft, this discount may tip you over the edge. This particular model should not be confused with the ROG Xbox Ally X, which has better specs than this cheaper model. I wouldn't personally opt for this over the Steam Deck, mostly because this thing is pricey and doesn't have trackpads. But it's there if you want it.

Lenovo Legion Go S
Save AU$301
Lenovo Legion Go S : was AU$1,199 now AU$898 at Amazon

A decent discount on this competent, gorgeous and comfortable handheld gaming PC. It boasts good performance, a great 8-inch screen, and a 144Hz refresh rate, though we criticised its "poor performance compared to current-gen handhelds". Still, if you're after something like this and want hardware a bit more advanced than the Steam Deck OLED, it's well worth consideration.

In these days of austerity, RGB bling is now seen as pompous postering. So get with the proletariat program and invest in these unadorned but hard working Corsair fans. This works out at just AU$11 per fan, not that we think in terms of individuality anymore.

When will EOFY sales start in 2026?

Logic would suggest that the sales should begin at the end of the financial year, but if there's one thing we've learned about sales events over the years, it's that logic is a precious and rare commodity! So you can expect Australia's EOFY sales to kick off in the weeks before June 30 (the official "last day" of the financial year) and then keep running for most of July.

Compared to the likes of Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday, the EOFY sales period is amorphous: it kinda just runs for as long as every individual retailer wants, and that can often be upwards of a month. So yes, it's probably worth waiting until June, at the very earliest, to make any non-essential purchases.

Are EOFY sales good for PC gaming products?

Actually, yes! Chiefly because the likes of Mwave get involved, so there's every chance you'll find a good discount on big ticket items like gaming monitors or gaming laptops. But you can also expect to pick up some great deals on keyboards, mice, and headsets from the likes of Amazon, eBay and more.

In many ways, EOFY (and Black Friday) are the best times to pick up PC gaming gear—more so than Prime Day for example. It's because a range of specialist merchants get involved, ranging the aforementioned Mwave, through to PC brands themselves, including Lenovo, HP and Dell.
