Yes I did

Wow. Perhaps I’m one of the lucky ones!

My grinder was delivered yesterday. Very fast shipping via DHL. I’m pleased with it so far.

Total Tools and Sydney Tools have been doing these promos for years. Interesting to see Bunnings joining them.

Where did you buy your 3M sanding discs from? I have struggled to find a supplier

There’s two schools of thought on where the blade should be. It really comes down to personal preference.

You have got to be joking. You might have a point here if Bunnings recorded serial numbers for these items...but they don't. You're buying…

I mentioned in another comment that the box was shipped from TDJ Australia. They appear to be the wholesaler for Thinkware. The box has…

The box is maybe just big enough to contain the 2 items, although I don’t know how big the dashcam box is. There was enough air packaging…

I've usually had good experiences shopping with Amazon, however this latest experience has left me quite frustrated... I ordered a…
