Hi Guys,
We are launching an Aussie online store for your gaming needs, today is a very soft opening and to encourage people to test out the site what better way than to offer a 5% discount on all products.
Please bare in mind we are still in a soft launch phase and some processes may not be as smooth as they should be.
Um I too agree, what store masks their domain and the location/name looks very suss.
Maybe they are legitimately in Bahamas & just really love Australia so they have decided to sell us Caribbean-priced PC games! Yeah mon!
OP was the rep for cdkeyscentral.com (doesn't load for me) http://www.ozbargain.com.au/user/50846/nodes
Yeah site doesnt load up for me as well, hmm
I am the co partner of ozgamestore.com with Tarleton.Unfortunately we are hiding that information to protect us from email spam and sms spam.We will post stock pictures etc to proove that we are legit company.You can contact my Australian partner over phone as well
Good luck to you, but you're going to need a much more diverse range of products. No X360 or PS3 games at all (yet), hopefully you'll stock some soon and the prices will be comparable with other popular online gaming sites like OzGameshop and Dungeon Crawl.
We currently dont have enough money to launch all range of products at once.In the future though we might launch more products
I thought it was the same company, and wondered why they were having a "soft launch" until closer inspection of the link.
Yea me too, I thought they were branching out, and I could never turn down a 5% coupon - even the thumbnail looks somewhat similar
I'd personally rather buy from ozgameshop than these guys (regardless of price), whether you would recieve your item or not would come down to experience, there is nothing on their website that says that they are legit.
Yes my friend you are free to buy from any webstore as its your money.We know we have to earn some credibility before customers dive in and purchase from our store.
Ya same here. Name is too similar.
I agree, name is way too similar. I clicked it thinking it might have been the same people. Personally, I wouldn't hand my personal details over until I heard feedback from other people.
And that's what they're going for. Ozgameshop does an amazing trade considering they are usually not the cheapest option all because they target Australians and charge in AU$ (usually Marrio128 or Zavvi will be cheaper but there is the odd occassion Ozgameshop is).
As long as they sell the games cheaply and you receive what you paid for, I'd be happy to use them.
Today is soft launch. Next week is hard launch?
Perhaps this company is a subsidiary of Old El Paso.
Why can't we have both?
Wow, how do you sell Anno 1404 so cheap? I just bought this about 2 weeks ago off eBay for $11.49 USD plus postage, and that was by far the cheapest price on eBay. $8.00 is amazing.
Battlefield 3 for $31! Nice
Wow, aside from your name being so similar as other people mentioned, the store looks almost the exact same as ozgameshop…. Almost close enough to be a copyright infringement?
While not familiar with either site, I'd reckon it's more likely they outsourced or bought the site design from someone with similar or the exact same template…
EDIT: Ok, just took a look and yeah, the item lists looks similar but the page header looks fairly different if you ask me. In fact, Ozgamestore looks cleaner and easier! lol
looks like any other store tbh
no there is no copyright infringement as no one has registered trademark for the word ozgame and plus they are in UK and we are in India so it doesnt matter
Some of your prices look pretty sweet - Sims 3 for $21.99 shipped is cheaper than 29 stores on Gamecafe.com.au
It might be worth having an about us section to describe where your store is etc…
Have to say your Wii accessories look overpriced, particularly for Snakebyte rather than Nintendo product..
It looks to me like most of your games are the Indian versions which is fine - they work fine here….
Imposter!
Who cares.. cheap prices is where its at. I don't care if it's from there, Zavvi, thehut, Game.co.uk, Playasia etc. I check them all before buying. As long as these dudes delivery in a 10 day time frame I'm all for them existing.
Who says they deliver at all?
Have you bought anything from us to proof that we dont deliver?
Yeah, atleast those stores you mentioned deliver eventually for the most part, worst you could expect is a wrong item
I'm not interested in buying from someone in the Bahamas who hides their identity, I'm not interested in being a statistic for being duped by foreigners on a current affair / today tonight
We are also not interested in cheating someone over the internet.
DO you have any proof to back up your comment?
10 days for uk delivery - I'm living in a different country obviously…………
If you pay with Paypal you'll get your money back if this is a scam…
Smh
You can get money back irrespective of whetehr you pay with paypal or not.You can always do credit card chargeback if you havent received your item
Hardly worth the hassle to save a few bucks over a reputable website.
Just having a look around, not really in need of any products, but I noticed that when I changed the shipping country the cost did not change. Might effect you guys down the line with international orders, I know it costs much more than $5 to ship 1kg from Aus to NZ, let alone the Bahamas, might just be your shipping policy, not sure.
And just putting it out there that this might be negged as spam/ad as there is no real bargain. Unless the proices are extremely cheap and the 5% ontop tips it to bargain status, which I am not sure as I rarely purchase/play games anymore.
Also there is no ABN that I can see, and obviously not one associated to the domain.
Also this, seems to be a bit suspicious if you ask me:
