Rogerwilco commented on SONY 55" XR A80J OLED $1995 (Was $2495) + Delivery (Free C&C) @ Bing Lee
FYI, The Good Guys price matched Sony Store, almost. $2030 delivered in Perth. Worth the extra small cost to get it locally IMHO.

I've got the 4 items and it's still showing $15+ for postage. So I continued thinking the postage would come off right at the end but no....

Rogerwilco replied to Zackeroo on Don't ask why, but I need the CHEAPEST 40" Smart TV with a good design (fairly thin bezels)
2 days, really? More like 2 months if you're lucky. I'm still waiting for some from Nov last year, one of which was a BigW purchase.

I've had one of these for a few years. It still works but it's never done a good job of toasting evenly, I have to watch it and turn the...

I agree. I bought some about 3 weeks ago and they haven't shipped yet. Their website claims Fast Dispatch and Delivery so after a week I...

Rogerwilco replied to wetwork on 2 x 20-Pack Duracell Coppertop AA Battery/ 20 Pack AAA Battery $9.80 + Delivery ($0 with OnePass-Free to Join & Trial) @ Catch
I wouldn't chance it but I think all alkaline cells will leak given enough time, but from my experience Duracell are maybe the worst.

I like Varta. I did a capacity test between Varta AAA and Energizer Max AAA and the Varta had more capacity. I haven't tested Duracell...

That depends on what price you can get them for. The Kogan price was up and down like a yo-yo. When they were at the lowest price they were...

Do tell? I bought some Eneloop Pro not long ago are they're 950mAh and I can't find any 1100's listed anywhere.

Going by my experience with cheap Heymix chargers I doubt these are any good.

Yes but it'd be top heavy. Be careful not to roll the car on a hard surface and damage the camera. Been there, done that.

Damn, just bought this a couple of days ago after looking at it for weeks. Why does this always happen?

Ditto. Even the wife complained about the muffled sound. I gave it away and went back to my Gen 2.
