Make it so replied to Fappo on Harvey Norman Refusing to Replace or Refund without Sending Back to Manufacturer. Is This Legal?
Yeah, it's a crap situation to be in, for sure. Comes to show how much we depend on our phones nowadays. In the early phone days, you'd…

The backhaul benefits - traffic between nodes. And keep on mind that actual speeds don't usually approach theoretical advertised speeds.

Make it so replied to Lucille Bluth on Samsung Galaxy Ring $699 (+Bonus $100 JB Gift Card) + Delivery ($0 C&C/In-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi
NFC payments would be my only motivator. But even then it's too expensive.

Make it so commented on Catch to Cease Trading As Of 30 April 2025
Glad I didn't end up buying a OnePass subscription. I missed the old "Catch of the Day". Last thing we needed was yet another marketplace.
