They're still in very high demand, which is probably what's keeping the price up. I own two of them and think that they're fantastic.

Those are some pretty significant point amounts on offer, but also some significant spend. $350 is a lot.

Thanks for the tip! I'll do the same going forward.

Also a tip. In the past, checking the balance prior to using the card made the company put a block on the card, meaning I had to call…

Haha painfully true. The bastards hide them so well.

Just ordered a 50x100cm canvas print priced at $284.95 (excl postage) for $93.19 (incl postage). Let's see how we go!

You classy SOB, I wanna party with you.

Bought a couple of Macpac items last week. I'm usually a medium or a large, both Macpac items (jacket and jumper) I ended up getting in…

I did ask at two of the three stores and they said that they were out of stock.

Checked three stores this morning in Sydney's south. One on the dot at opening time and two within 30 minutes of opening. Not a single $100…

I'm getting the same.

Can you please update us on what you hear from the rep?

@TravelKon Hi Rep. I am looking for a physical sim for South America. Colombia specifically, but can only see eSims? Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure he's lolling at the whole 888 = good fortune in eastern culture, not suggesting that the price is outlandish.

I second this. I much prefer Greece in October these days.

Hmm. I wonder if the staff at Coles will let you do that. They've got enough shit going on to deal with. Wouldn't be surprised if they just…

Using Coles as an example: go to a self checkout terminal, know beforehand exactly how much is left on the card, at the end instead of card…

I use these to buy myself Amazon gift cards. Everyone is paranoid about these getting hacked. So I simply add these into my payment methods…

+1 for more background on JV.

This is interesting. Thanks for the detailed response. I'll be taking an Anker 737 and a Xiaomi ZMI No.20 with me on a flight next week. So…

Did they seriously get you to pull it out at the airport to inspect it? I did not know that they actually do that. What did they ask? What…

Yes, this is correct. The danger is not in it being closed. The danger is the line being so long that you risk missing your flight even…

I didn't realise that the blocking is a common occurrence. I was wondering why the card stopped working and called them up. They asked me a…

The special just finished. Had it open with the discount tick box visible while I was doing a bit of reading on it. 5 minutes later it was…

I have used these guys probably about 4 or 5 times over the years on European trips. Only had an issue one single time where a sim card…

Funny you say that, because I got the candy apple red one specifically.

They must have mixed stock and only the unlucky few cop the dodgy controllers. I definitely wasn't the only one, going off the reviews.

The packaging had a seal on it, which is what completely threw me off. I cracked the seal open only to be surprised by the contents. I…

Please note, I've purchased one of these from Amazon recently and it was clearly a used controller. There were little hairs on the…

Hold up, what's that now?
