The Telecom Shop question

vegemite2008 on 23/05/2025 - 00:31

HI guys,

I remember that the telecomshop went into administration 2024.

Another company bought telecom from the administrators apparently.

I am in the market for a headset with base station etc.

Expensive and fancy but I need it for work.

The telecomshop is $80 cheaper than the others online that sells the headset.

My question is, has anyone here purchased anything since june 2024 the telecom shop?

If yes, was it a smooth purchase?

Thanks guys

HHhhmmm… … they don't have Paypal which is a bit concerning.

What happens when you call them and have a chat with them?

Maybe pay via CC to have some protection in case?

  Not offering PayPal is not concerning at all. Cheaper retails especially choose not to so they can reduce the fees they are paying, you get the same protections through your CC anyway.

    Yeah, of course. But many places (even larger) charge fees for CC and PayPal payments. Just like a lot of computer stores.

Telecom changed their name to Telstra a while ago.

Update: I spoke to the telecom shop.

Seems legit.

I did another search using google and Maxo was $20 cheaper.

Very happy.
