Aga Primasto on Scanpan Commercial 5-Piece Cookware Set $179 VIC/SA/TAS C&C / in-Store (Sold Out for Delivery) @ Minimax

They're similar levels of construction and quality and the set you got has additional stuff in it, so I think you're pretty good there.

Geekomatic on Samsung 427L Bottom Mount Fridge SRL4200B $898 Delivered @ Appliances Online

The phrase "top mount" or "bottom mount" refers to the position of the freezer, but the product itself is fridge.

Not the ACCC - They handle corporate-level issues. You want to contact Consumer Affairs for things like this.

If you're going to buy another Ryobi tool, just buy a kit instead of skin only and it'll come with another battery and a charger.

Battery is great. Modem is efficient and so is the chip. Comfortably lasts all day, and charges unbelievably fast if you need a top-up.
