Yeah you really got me mate. Apologies for the misunderstanding, but I might suggest that if you meant to write "donkey", it would have…

Cheers mate, really interested in this as a teacher working in a remote community with a STEM background. The soil here is quite poor…

I see what you're doing and I don't agree with the other guy that you're an "ass" (or arse, as we say in Australia) punching down on sick…

Next step up might be Evakool or Dometic/Waeco. There's a big gap in price between Kings/Oztrail and similar camping brands that sell…

The branded Engel power supplies are a rort. The markup for the fridges is partially justified by the fancy motors they use (lower peak…

Yeah I've used my 40L Engel as a freezer - only issue I've ever had was accidentally unplugging it, no issues with the actual unit.

I used to have a little Hisense bar fridge (45L) that would fit easily in the boot of my Prado, but there's no way I would want to run it…

I remember buying Hakushu from the local bottle-o on exchange in Japan in 2013, when it was about 4000-6000 yen. Yamazaki was just taking…

Potentially the difference is where it's made. The previous one has the "Australian Made" badge while this one is "Australian owned" and…

Has Cadbury's quality stopped sliding?

This is not specific to the BDB, but since descaling involves acid dislodging bits of scale buildup, doing it too often is a waste of time…

It's been a while since I left them but they were awful to deal with. Frequent downtimes (for me alone in our building), then customer…

...won't get fooled again! (A reference for people old enough to remember cassettes and why we all stopped using them)

This but unironically Love to wear a bit of androgynous fashion, hate to be told what I can and can't wear. At the extreme though, I was…

Strange, because the TI-30XB does both of the things that are meant to be the reason why this calculator isn't approved. Most likely NESA…

I'm a maths teacher. What does the AU do over this one? We don't require a specific calculator model for years 7-10, though we've started…

Incredibly helpful response, thank you Russ!

I'm a relative noob to this sorry but are you talking about cheap HPM/Click/Jackson/Arlec double adaptors with surge protection? These…

Cheers. I complained about the quality to them and they seemed to think that being unhappy about receiving items that had defects was me…

Beware: many reports of quality issues with Bonds goods sold by Zasel - see previous threads on here. Socks in particular come up a lot.…

Can't go wrong at this price, look forward to trying the wines!

I think this is the variation: https://www.amazon.com.au/Bonds-Mens-Underwear-Hipster-Brief/dp/B0DQXD68WW?th=1&psc=1 Agree, after using the…

Xiaomi do market bone conduction headphones in China, but the style doesn't match any sold by MI-Smart.…

Fakes or seconds, suspect fakes because even seconds are the same design as the original ones just with minor defects. Zasel's stuff is…

I bought the mens "Bonds Everyday Trunk" from this seller previously and what I received were either fakes or seconds (suspect the former).…

Yeah give a bold SO a go - something from LB or someone doing darker roasts - for milk. For black coffee, I honestly recommend giving…

African SOs can be interesting for sure - I've come to appreciate them more over the years, though I tend to buy more Central and South…

No milk in my coffee and I almost always brew pour-over/filter style, which is the main reason I mostly drink single origin coffees. So,…

This stuff is probably higher quality (and far more expensive as green coffee) than LB. Without tasting OP's coffee, it's hard to say it's…

That's fine, and I understand that good coffee costs good money. I am quite likely in your target market, or would be if I lived in Hornsby…
