Relevant sections of the ACCC's Consumer Guarantees:

You may not be entitled to a remedy if you:

simply change your mind, decide you do not like your purchase or have no use for it

discover you can buy the goods or services more cheaply elsewhere (unless the seller guarantees that the goods cannot be purchased more cheaply elsewhere)

Fuck! Pretty pissed that I lost 50 bucks in just 10 days

Ah well, we can't always get everything for the lowest price possible. I bought a Motorola razr 40 at the beginning of this year for $610, thinking it was a bargain second-hand down from the retail price of $999. A few months later the stores were selling it new for $499. It's only a small amount of money in the grand scheme of things so just relax and enjoy the new phone!

Does it have that "vegan leather" back, by the way? I love that texture on my Motorola, feels way better than slippery glass.

Naa I got the dark blue which has plastic back. Hated the red colour.

Fair, I would've done the same if the only option was red.
