shopbots list prices starting from $50 (most dont inc freight)

Shipping to my postcode in NSW was $14 (making the total $49, so still cheaper than whats out there) but as mentioned, free pickup is available in Ultimo, NSW
there is a credit card surcharge of 2% (for mastercard and visa) AMEX not accepted
unfortunately, they dont accept paypal
