I've had the same for other products as well. If an identical product is available from another seller, but "Shipped by Amazon", you may…

This isn't on SBS. It's on Prime. But yes, SBS On Demand streaming is still terrible. The quality is far worse than broadcast quality,…

I've never had any luck buying office chairs online unless there's somewhere I can try them out first. There's just so much variation from…

The PS5 has terrible battery life compared to the Switch.

It’s even worse in the US. Our price works out to be around US$400 + GST. The US price is US$450 + tax. So even though the price is high,…

Unless you go for a professional mixer, there's really not much else that comes close at any price. Unless something has changed since I…

Why not both? While it would be ideal to avoid non-stick, we do have a non-stick saucepan and frypan for really messy dishes, and stainless…

He’s just really happy with his purchase and wants to make sure everyone really knows he’s happy. Fair enough if you ask me. People who…

Eventually, technology dies or becomes outdated. My iPad 3 (purchased in 2012) is really struggling these days. I replaced the battery a…

That sounds about right. You just have to port in to JB with a new number and buy the phone using the promo as if you were intending to be…

Yes, although the true cost depends on how much you value your time. There’s a bit of messing around to get that price.

Diluted ammonia, for that healthy glow.

Correction, it was Wind Waker, not Twilight Princess. But I was set for a year or more. It was crazy how cheap they were clearing…

The GameCube got down under $100 during its Toys ‘R’ Us clearance days. I picked up a brand new GameCube, Metroid Prime 1+2, Twilight…

Worth a go, but watch out you don’t inhale it, the cartridges are very bitter (no joke, lick one and see).

Nintendo “flop” consoles have the best bargains. I remember picking up first-party GameCube games for $20 each when Toys ‘R’ Us…

Because it requires a more powerful processor and was implemented for the Switch 2? It won’t work in a NES either, even if you blow in it.

I’ve been using air purifiers for more than 20 years (lots of neighbours with wood fires around here that I don’t get along with).…

Yep, but that’s ToTK, which has a different set of issues.

The Korok Forest is pretty shocking on the Switch. It’s lovely scenery, but it really does get down to 10FPS at the worst bit. The rest…

In reality, they're all basically the same brand - Luxottica (the owners of OPSM and Sunglasses Hut) . They now own Ray-Ban and Oakley, and…

A classic game, originally by Australian developer Steve Fawkner. I personally think Warlords II is a big step up, but the original is…

I bought a pair in 2017, and have worn them most days since. They're still going strong. So it's possible to get a good pair, but like most…

Yes, these are indeed "grown up shoes". No velcro here.

Make sure you get a first-generation one. They have Wolfson DACs. The sought-after Wolfson DAC measures objectively worse than other DACs,…

Review in Amiga Power looks good. I'll have to check it out once I'm done with Mega-Lo-Mania.

No fixed broadband? How do they connect up their consoles, NAS and and servers? It’s like not having electricity or running water.

We have two pop-ups. One is a K-Mart one we bought 20 years ago, so it's probably hard to find now. It's still going strong, and the…

We tried one of these, and went back to pop-up beach tents. These cabanas provide surprisingly little shade for the footprint and bulk. The…

If I had time, I'd raise this issue with the ACCC. "New" has a meaning, and "customer return" isn't it. I guess they're bargaining on…
