dressed up as our avatar
Oh crap….
Yes
food is good there!
What's with the smart casual dress code? You ain't going to Quay
Damn I was late to the party! Hopefully can make this despite having a 20 person cap
Would it be possible to extend to 30 peeps with three (x10 tables) to share?
Apologies, some of the reasons are:
It's my 1st time organising, so easier to manage.
Also on Saturday, so might be busier than weekdays.
Lastly, even though OB reimburse the cost later on, I do have a limited budget to be paid by me, on the actual day of the event.

Maybe don't organise two events then? And ask for a deposit?
Spread out the 2 events (3 weeks apart) should be fine, budget wise.
Plus, the other one is not confirmed yet.
No Deposit Needed, but of course only Register if You can 100% Attend.
If closer to the date, you cannot make it, please do cancel your registration.
In order to be fair to people currently on the waiting list.
Please register me for this event
Join the wait list for now.
Please register me for this event
I cannot see the registration link for this
Because it's full and there's now a waitlist …
Also, maybe because you didn't attend every single one you registered for last year?
As per update from Scotty:
"Here's an update on the T-shirts this year — it's severely delayed. The manufacturer just got back to me this morning and mentioned that they are expecting to finish on 10 Nov. It's going to take a week of DHL to deliver to my place in Sydney, and probably another week to post to various states — we are now looking at the last week of November, which means many events would miss out. Finger crossed that the manufacturer can actually post them out by 10 Nov, as there has already been some significant delay so far.
It's the same manufacturer from Xiamen China that I have been using since Oct 2012, and they made most of OzBargain T-shirts so far. Usually the turnaround time is around 1 month. So this year, I contacted the manufacturer with design, sizes, quantities, etc on 27 Sept, picked the fibric from the Pantone colours, received the invoice and paid on 30 Sept.
Then the week long Chinese national holidays. By the time they got back to me it's already 11 Oct. A few days later (15 Oct) they said they don't have enough 180gsm fabric, so we changed to the 200gsm fabric with extra cost. Paid immediately.
They sent me the photos of the same on 23 Oct, and asked whether we want to make another 60 shirts from the left-overs from the whole roll of clothes, on top of the 300 that we were originally ordering. Sure — since it's likely we won't have enough. Still waiting for invoice for that, but yesterday I asked the rep again and got the reply of the 10 Nov ETA.
I'll keep everyone updated on the T-shirt situation here."

Hey, I've completely forgot about this event till today, I will confirm some details and hopefully give you a response within 2 days.
Yes please. If cannot make it for 11-1 on Sat Nov 9th, please cancel your registration so that the next one in waiting list can move up into actual registration status.
Yes sorry, I am cancelling my registration. I just realised I have a day out with my friends in Burwood funnily enough around that time. I hope your ozBargain meetup goes well.
@MrBirb: Maybe you could come to another event in Hyde Park:

SmashedMango has cancelled the registration.
poonky has now progressed from waitlist to attendee.
I also forgot about this, whoops
Hi I registered to this but was kicked out and I don't know why
Maybe you registered more than 2 so it will kick the previous one out.
It could be ideally the user needs to be OB member for at least the past 1 year, as they do not allow new users to attend.
I was a member for more than a year too 😢
Less than a year actually for you. (Member Since 20/11/2023)
About 92% of the people in the list above are members from the years 2007 - 2022.
The remaining 8% are from 2023, but joined OB before you.
Just to provide some facts & perspective.
Maybe you could come to another event in Hyde Park. Try this:

This is to confirm Booking for 20 people was made over the phone, for Sat 9/11/2024.
But since they don't allow 12pm booking of 20 people, as it's their peak time on Sat.
The time of the booking is now 11am - 1pm.
Thank you so much for organizing

Also please have an idea what you might ordering in advance, < $45 each, which is already very generous from OzBargain:
https://tasteofshanghai.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/23…
We will start place orders probably around 11.15am.
Thanks, will we all sit in 1 table? Are we ordering for sharing?
Will allow everyone the freedom to order based on your own preference, as long as remain under budget of $45 or less for each.

Hi, running a bit late. Will be there in 10 minutes.
Picture from today! This table was under budget! Thanks James! And thanks ozb!
Thanks for staying under budget. And sorted out with the table went slightly over budget as well. 16 out of 20 for actual attendance, which means less cost for OzBargain too. Sorry I have to decline the 2 people who showed up really late at 12.30. As our timeslot is 11 to 1. It is a busy time for the restaurant from 12 to 1, so do not want to go overtime.
Thanks James for organising the meet-up and Scott for sponsoring, it was wonderful to meet everyone! :)
can we come dressed up as our avatar?
