Best-selling designer brand Coach knocks down prices on favourite bags and wallets for a limited time at Amazon Australia

7NEWS6 days ago

You don't need to fly to Manhattan or even leave your couch to get your hands on a luxury Coach bag this week.
The iconic brand, known for its buttery-soft leather and timeless designs, is currently offering a rare deal on its most popular bags and wallets, but only for a limited time on Amazon Australia.
Coach doesn't go on sale very often, and these pieces aren't just the leftovers. We're talking about the brand's bestselling shoulder bag, sleek bi-fold wallets and cult-loved long wallet, quietly marked down.
We're not sure how long this secret sale will last, but judging by how quickly stock flew off shelves during Coach's recent Tabby pop-up in Sydney, we wouldn't wait around.
The luxury label was founded back in 1941 as a small leather workshop in New York City, and it's come a long way since.
After a quiet period, Coach has bounced back into fashion's good books, especially with Gen Z and millennials, thanks to clever social media moves, sustainability efforts and a refreshed focus on craftsmanship.
It's the kind of brand that doesn't scream status but whispers it with a clean finish, soft leather and smart design.
What to buy from the Coach Amazon sale
First up is the Coach Shoulder Bag, originally $248.84 but now down to $205.57.
It's minimal, classic and surprisingly versatile, making it one of those rare bags that works equally well for weekend errands or a dinner date.
It's a go-to for all ages and styles, with a clean silhouette that doesn't try too hard but still looks incredibly put together.
Then there's the Coach MDM CRN Zip Bi-fold Wallet, which has dropped from $174.92 to $133.76.
Small enough to slip into any handbag or even your pocket, this wallet is as practical as it is stylish.
It zips up securely, keeps everything organised, and adds a subtle touch of luxury to your everyday essentials.
And if you love a pop of colour, the Coach Long Wallet in red leather is the standout. It was $238.95, now $197.16, and can be worn as a wristlet if you're out and about.
It's functional too, with plenty of space for cards and notes, but let's be honest, it's the bold colour that'll make your outfit sing.
Why now's the time to buy
With over 90 per cent positive ratings from Australian Amazon customers and more than 500 recent listings, Coach has clearly struck a chord with Aussie shoppers.
And while the brand might not be splashed across every influencer's grid the way it once was, that's part of the appeal, it's luxurious, but not try-hard.
The cherry on top? With the money you save on these sale picks, you can splurge on Coach's cult-favourite charms or even dress up your Labubu (yes, the collectible toy-turned-it-accessory).
Coach encourages you to customise your look, and now you can do that without breaking the bank.

JB Hi-Fi pays $13.5m to settle The Good Guys promotions lawsuit

Retail giant JB Hi-Fi has agreed to pay a $13.5 million fine to settle allegations that certain store promotions at The Good Guys were misleading and deceptive. The company, which owns the discount white goods and electronics warehouses, has also agreed to a remediation program for some customers. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission started legal action against JB Hi-Fi in Federal Court in July last year over certain store credit and StoreCash promotions, alleging they violated consumer law. The Good Guys promised to provide customers with store credit for buying goods — such as $50 in StoreCash for a $500 purchase — but the retailer didn't disclose they also had to opt-in to receive marketing communications, the ACCC said at the time. The retailer also didn't adequately mention the credits expired quickly, mostly within seven and 10 days, the ACCC said. 'We are concerned that as a result of the alleged conduct, consumers may have purchased products from The Good Guys which they might not have done otherwise,' ACCC chair Gina Cass-Gottlieb said when it launched court proceedings. 'Businesses should be on notice that promotional conditions must be prominently disclosed to consumers, rather than buried in hard-to-find locations, or they risk enforcement action under the Australian consumer law.' The ACCC said 116 promotion ran from July 2019 to August 2023. 'The Good Guys takes its compliance with the law very seriously and has worked co-operatively with the ACCC to resolve the matter,' JB Hi-Fi said in a statement on Monday. 'The Good Guys has always sought to provide value and benefits to its customers and has always prided itself on its high levels of trust with consumers.' JB Hi-Fi has also agreed to contribute $200,000 to the ACCC's court costs. The ACCC said the agreement was subject to Federal Court approval and full details of the outcome would be made public when the court announced its judgment.

ASX slides, oil prices jump after US bombs Iran

The Australian sharemarket has retreated at the open as investors digest the strike by the US on Iran's nuclear facilities on Sunday. The S&P/ASX 200 has dipped 0.7 per cent, or 59.8 points, to 8445.5 points just after 11am. Almost every sector is in the red, with tech, healthcare and industrials leading the losses. Energy is the only sector in the green. In a major escalation of the conflict in the Middle East, US president Donald Trump on Sunday announced the US had 'completely and totally obliterated' Iran's uranium enrichment facilities, as he warned Iran should 'make peace' or face 'far greater' future attacks. The Iran attack deepens US involvement in the Middle East, and investors on Sunday mulled the likely market scenarios, including what it could mean for share prices, the price of oil, and currency and bond markets. Global oil benchmark Brent is 2.6 per cent higher at $US79.00 per barrel at 11.28am AEST, while West Texas Intermediate added 2.7 per cent to $US75.83 per barrel. Energy stocks rose in early trade, with Woodside up 0.3 per cent and Santos jumping 1 per cent. Loading Financial stocks lost ground. ANZ Bank fell 1.3 per cent, Westpac dropped 1.1 per cent, National Australia Bank shed 0.7 per cent and Commonwealth Bank - the biggest stock on the bourse - lost 0.3 per cent. The miners fell. Fortescue gave up 2 per cent, BHP fell 1.3 per cent and Rio Tinto lost 0.5 per cent in early trade. Grocery wholesaler Metcash, which operates IGA, and other food, liquor and hardware businesses, has risen 2.8 per cent after revealing an 8.9 per cent uplift in group revenue to $17.3 billion. Statutory profit rose 10.1 per cent to $283.3 million, and it has declared a fully franked dividend of 18 cents per share for the 2025 financial year.

Defence shares are booming as Trump, Middle East fuel expectations for government spending

Investors who bought into defence-focused companies and exchange traded funds months before Donald Trump was elected US president are laughing all the way to the bank. As wars intensify and President Trump pressures allies to dramatically increase their defence budgets, hundreds of billions of extra dollars will soon be spent on countries' war machines – and a slice of that will flow to savvy investors. Several global defence stocks have doubled their share price in the past year, while many others have climbed three times more than overall markets in the US, Europe and Australia, which are up eight per cent to 10 per cent. Analysts say the outlook remains strong, with the Israel-Iran conflict the latest in a string of international crises. Unlike last year's AI boom, which largely focused on US companies, the defence boom spans many countries. However, some of the best-known US defence stocks Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin, have generated only meagre returns. This global theme, combined with the fact that Australia does not have a significant listed defence sector, means many investors are looking to exchange traded funds for global exposure, and they have been rewarded so far. Three ASX-listed defence ETFs debuted last year and have climbed between 55 and 74 per cent. The best performer is the VanEck Global Defence ETF. VanEck deputy head of investments and capital markets, Jamie Hannah, said flows into ASX-listed defence ETFs have surged since March as companies including Italy's Leonards SpA, Germany's Hensoldt AG and Britain's Babcock International enjoy 'triple-digit price growth in the last year'. Mr Hannah said government spending is increasing across Europe, the US and Asia-Pacific, providing long-term revenue for defence companies. 'We often hear the term 'arms race' used in everyday contexts, but the literal meaning of countries competing for military superiority essentially describes the current geopolitical predicament,' he said. 'The thing about an arms race is that there is no finish line and no one can ever actually win the race, yet countries, even those unwilling, are compelled to participate in order to maintain national security.' Mr Hannah said the VanEck ETF does not hold any Australian defence stocks, although clients have expressed interest in Droneshield, which is up 18 per cent in the past year. Another Australian stock with defence exposure is Perth-based Austal, which is up 164 per cent over the past year. Backed by the billionaire Forrest family, it's attracted interest from South Korea's Hanwha Group. Other local companies benefiting from defence spending include Codan, up 75 per cent, and Electro Optic Systems, up 109 per cent. Equity Trustees Asset Management head of equities Chris Haynes said Trump 'wants everyone to be more self-reliant'. Mr Haynes noted the June 5 decision by NATO Defence Ministers to strengthen the alliance's deterrence and defence capabilities, through a spending commitment of 5 per cent of GDP. 'In Europe, the NATO directive will require Germany to spend €40bn for a new infantry division,' he said. 'The political will has changed and the German chancellor says spending needs to go to 3-3.5 per cent of GDP. Rheinmetall Ag is a German company that will benefit as a result of this directly.' Investors can buy overseas defence stocks directly through brokers and platforms, but will achieve more diversification buying broader funds that allocate their money throughout the sector. Betashares senior investment strategist Cameron Gleeson said many global defence contractors, including Rheinmetall, BAE Systems and Palantir, have seen a significant increase in orders and new government contracts. 'Investors are seeking exposure to the earnings growth these companies are experiencing, as well as the long tail of innovation that increased defence spending often provides,' he said. 'However, while defence companies are showing strong performance, much of the growth is happening outside Australia. As a result, investors may wish to look beyond the ASX for exposure to more mature global players with diversified revenue streams and government-backed contracts.' Mr Gleeson said investors should not focus solely on defence. 'Consider this sector for a satellite allocation, complementing a well-diversified core portfolio of Australian and international equities,' he said. Stake markets analyst Samy Sriram said defence ETFs are benefiting from investments in Palantir Technologies, which provides AI-powered defence software and sensors and has surged more than 440 per cent in a year. 'Palantir is a major beneficiary of higher defence spending, as it relies on government contracts for revenue,' she said. 'It is the third most traded stock on Stake this year. Firms that are investing in AI will be seen as increasingly important to the defence sector.' Stockspot CEO Chris Brycki said the shift to higher military spending started before Trump's re-election but his victory 'has added fuel to the fire'. Mr Brycki said Germany's defence spending increase is a notable example after it 'broke from decades of fiscal restraint by lifting its post-WWII cap on military spending'. 'This was a major policy shift that signalled how seriously many countries are now taking security,' he said.
