Iโ€™ve noticed you can 100% predict the comments based on the posts. Are OzBargainers loving the same comments over and over again or are these all new people thinking they are the only/first people to make these comments? What are some other cookie cutter comments that always appear?

  1. Condom deal: Thanks this is a lifetime supply
  2. Ice cream deal: Itโ€™s a scam. This should be normal price
  3. iPhone: Since when is a phone $2000?!
  4. Any high price item eg over $50k : Thanks OP bought 10.
  5. Asking for advice on buying car: Reference to old thread about the Westpac investment banker buying โ€œhigh yieldโ€ AMG

      They're hilarious because the poor fragile soul just gets downvoted even more

        Say downvote if I'm right and watch the triggered people comment away. Always a laugh.

            @Gunnar: You get the occasional person who thinks you're genuinely pissed. Getting -30 votes gives your an account an award, but asking people to downvote for the award is not allowed.

            I'm very proud of my black badge ๐Ÿ˜œ

              @Clear: Dam I didn't realise this happened. I want that badge dammit. I think the closest I came to achieving it may have been in my disparaging comments against the Thermomix illuminati

              @Clear: That award is useless now that they've introduced the ability to pay for it to be removed with their OzBargain Premium account.

              Saying that though, I do like having a "Role" attached to my account. Money well spent!

              • Gunnar on 01/12/2023 - 22:29

                @rompastompa: Wait what? You have to pay to have a oremium account on a website designed for cheapskates?

    any time someone has a question about a product or service or tradie: what did they say when you asked them?

    a similar version occurs when there's a hint that someone in an accident didn't have insurance: what did your insurer tell you to do?

    I'm paying a company for a service, and they have provided me advice based on the service I am paying them for.

    I don't like their answer so I'm going to ask a bunch of people on the interwebs instead.

    • pegaxs on 01/12/2023 - 10:08

      And then not liking the answers you get here, that confirm what the service provider is saying… and then going on to fight with everyone in the comments section…

      Pay a doctor to diagnose illness.
      Diagnosis is diabetes
      Unhappy with this diagnosis; ask the internet in many places still badgering answer of diabetes

      until they find it; a chiro site that says
      5G disease is what they really have.

      solved 5g disease is the cause because they say so :(

    Because the Content Creators are on tiktok, not OzBargain.

    Last time someone tried to bring something new, and posted live video during Aust Post deal, there wasn't much encouragement or follow-up.
    Admins seems too old for this now, young blood is required in leading position.

      You want tik tok on here? Not sure you will find majority support for that.

        Not exactly tiktok but they should hire someone for content ideas.

    "I charge for free with my solar" (Tesla threads)

    "I pay nothing for fuel" (Tesla threads)

    I do miss the crypto "I get a 1% loan secured on my crypto so I never have to pay CGT" I think with Celcius / FTX / Voyager collapse I think they lost the collateral and administrators tried to collect on the loan too. Who knows.

      Usually on threads asking about a cheap car…
