jlien replied to ASR-Briggs on $1000 off iPhone 16/16 Pro with Vodafone $69/Month for 24-Months BYOD Plan (New Vodafone Customers Only) @ Apple (in-Store Only)
That doesn't really happen. There's no scope to be able to turn down a work phone and get a pay raise of $40 a month (or whatever your…
jlien replied to mkh1991 on No Purchase Fees for $100 & $250 Coles Mastercard Digital Gift Cards @ Giftcards.com.au

jlien commented on Are There Any Banks with Minimal Hoops That Do NOT Force You onto "App-Only" Access?
I've been a bankwest customer for a long time. Their zero product is very much no-frills; but there's no fees and you can access the CBA…
jlien commented on [eBay Plus] Oral-B Genius 9000 Electric Toothbrush with 3 Heads & Travel Case $99 Delivered @ Allphones eBay

jlien commented on The North Face Black Woven Skirt Womens Size 8 $45 (RRP $115) Delivered @ Big Brands Aus eBay
north face makes skirts? is it weather proof or something? seems a bit ironic.

jlien replied to sunday9987 on [Prime] Apple iPhone 14 512GB (Red) $1,354 (27% off RRP) Delivered @ Amazon AU
you can't. Apple devices don't support memory cards. Exactly because they can sell you the memory upgrade for 5x the markup. They're just…
14? this is 2 generations old by now; and the 14 itself runs off the same chipset as the 13. You may as well get a 13 for a lot less.

this thing isn't far off from the price of a model Y (which tbf is also chinese), i don't see the dumping. It's not like it's 1/2 the price.
