Any Experiences with Rubber Monkey - https://www.rubbermonkey.com.au/

Hi All,

I've stumbled across this site and it has a product with heaps of accessories for a good price.

A post search in OzB come up with 3 previous posts but nothing of recent bargains.

Seems like an NZ store that has a NSW presence now.

Anyone with experience to make sure it's not too good to be true?

TIA.

    A quick WP search has this post from 2021 > https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/98wnz1k3

    Not sure if the business model is the same i.e. ships from NZ. As would this have any GST implications. The delivery to Vicco is $35 so assuming this would be some sort of overseas shipping cost. But still the savings are much better significant with all that in mind.

    Pleasure machine asking about a rubber monkey.

    Is this code for something? Am I out of the loop?

    Yes, ordered a lens hood from them. Cheap. Arrived. No issues.

      Thanks for the confirmation and positive experience. I'm edging (don't get Muzeeb too excited) to pulling the trigger with my purchase.

    I ordered some camera armour for a DSLR. Good price, sent promptly, goods as described. No issues, but only one purchase and it was a couple of years ago.

    Hi I purchased an IK Guitar pedal setup. The plug broke (it was a flimsy setup) and they sent it away for evaluation. The process was long and expensive, as I had to pay freight both ways. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/631085

    I won't buy from them again.

    So if something goes wrong, be prepared to fork out big $$$. :(

      OK. Thanks for your feedback. Sounds like a real PITA.

      I'm wondering now with their NSW base, if that would be better serviced now??

        Possibly, however with the item I had, I did ask if there was someone local in Australia I could send it to, but they said it had to back to NZ for evaluation. :(

        In hindsight, I should have just written it off, as I don't trust using it on stage/practice due to it's flimsy design.

    I ordered a camera battery charger from them (2 models behind, after market from one brand that used to be sold in store).
    Delivery estimate around 4-6 weeks.
    Arrived today; packed well; working well; very happy.
