      I have seen many Australian businesses who use a .com instead of .com.au

      Also, Chinese theft of IP is rife, including photos. Taking moving targets like Aliexpress buyers to caught is like playing whack-a-mole.

      I would have to see the patent application number to see where the truth lies, but I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss.

        Domain registered in 2011… Still patent pending after 9 years?

          Provisional applications takes little money.
          Final applications takes lots of money.

          Unless you know its going to make it big, just do a provisional application and stick patent pending on everything. You have 12 month to decide whether you do the proper application or not. They obviously didn't bother with the final application and just left as patent pending.

        IMHO, similar ideas have been around for many years such as https://patents.google.com/patent/US6976716B2/en in 2003

        The site indicates that this company is the seller. You require an ABN for a company to sell goods.

        Edit: I was wrong. It is not compulsory, but it is unusual. Maybe they don't meet the $75,000 threshold for sales to require one.

          Maybe they re-registered the company in Phillipines after they realized they can pay 0% tax unless they sell goods inside Phillipines.

            @Blue Cat: I am sure there is a complex mix of trusts and LLCs registered in strategic tax havens with sophisticated transfer pricing methods to minimise Australian tax, including but not limited to having their corporate headquarters at 1209 North Orange Street in Wilmington, Delaware (https://www.businessinsider.com.au/building-wilmington-delaw…) with an ultimate holding company in Ireland. All Qicklocks are transported by sea under ships flying a flag of convenience and burning the cheapest grade bunker oil. The owner sits in a chair stroking his cat laughing maniacally at the marvellousness of his scheming.

          Your getting confused with GST registration.
          You only need to register for GST when you earn over 75k.

          For this company though they are providing products directly to costumers so by law they require an ABN

    This product is pretty meh. $6 for a piece of metal is quite expensive. The knobby thing that came with it isn't attached and can be lost easily.

    Buy with caution.

    • spy on 27/02/2020 - 20:22

      My knob got lost within 7 days of purchase. My fault I know, but they are easy to lose.

        Do you have another knob you could put in it so it's not completely useless?

        • snensnay on 27/02/2020 - 21:50

          Knob, knob…spare knob anyone?

    • MattyD on 27/02/2020 - 21:42

      I think it's a great device, provided you don't go and lose the barrel.

      The missus and have kept one in the top drawer beside the bed since they first came up on OB all those years ago. It has saved us having to explain things to the kids literally…like…well probably at least three times.

        Thanks. You've reinforced exactly the reason why I was thinking of buying it.

    • quop on 28/02/2020 - 01:03

      You can spend a bit more on something like the Addalock (or similar cheaper clones) which work on a similar principle but has the knob bit attached by a chain.

      But it works! Once the airbnb owner tried opening our door and he failed - because of the Quiklock!

    If you have an old fork, a saw, and a bit of time you can makeone yourself.

    Example: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-lNFJt10w1E

    Works well. Have been mine for 4 years.

    Got a couple years ago. Works as advertised. Won't keep burglars out but great for some privacy if you have kids iykwim

    bought this in the last deal. only works on certain door types… like 50%

  • 28kb on 27/02/2020 - 20:48

    Only can lock from inside as well

    • 87percent on 28/02/2020 - 10:40

      that's called False Imprisonment and is a crime

      • ssquid on 28/02/2020 - 18:08

        It's a crime to lock yourself in?

  • Flop on 27/02/2020 - 21:30

    Only works on some doors. The notches are too far apart so you cant hold the door tightly closed so the door can be opend and banged against the nob denting the door or chipping the paint.

      Dented door > burgled house

  • eatwell365 on 27/02/2020 - 21:52

    Bought several times. Good product. Gave couple to friends as well.

    We got one some time ago … tested it at home, it bent & got mangled testing it gently on the bedroom door.
    Sorry but no matter if Australian family owned, 50+ votes etc … for us this is simply $5 landfill that does not even work at home let alone on holiday as advertised.

    • MattyD on 27/02/2020 - 22:26

      Wow my experience with this product/supplier is the exact opposite: mine would bugger up the door frame long before it bent. It's tough as.

      But bear in mind: I don't think the point of this device is to be an unbreakable defence. It's protection from intrusion, particularly where a door lacks a working (or adequate) lock.

      If someone wants badly to kick down your door then this is not the device you're looking for.

    Be warned: I thought this was a great idea for travelling, but I found myself in trouble at airport security in Europe (I think it was departing from Birmingham Airport, UK). They were not at all happy! It took several officers quite some time and convincing that it was nothing nefarious. I even offered to let them keep/bin it, but I think at that point they were suspicious of me. In the end I got the all clear.

    I actually haven't used this in years over at least 10+ holidays, but it's a relief knowing we have it there if needed.

    Edit: I should add that it was only after one of the officers googled the address on the little sleeve that they understood what it was for, but then it became a bigger issue of whether I was intending to somehow use it on the airplane…

      Probably could have saved yourself a few headaches and put it in your checked in luggage rather than carry on.

      • ZJack on 27/02/2020 - 23:44
        +2

        We generally travel without checked luggage, only carry-on, if the trip is ~10 days in summer fewer in winter. Also I get what you're saying about checked luggage, but also I would forget to move it back into my carry-on or backpack and that's where you really want this thing so that it's handy when you're stuck in a dodgy bathroom without a lock!
