jvdv001 commented on [Kogan First] Certa 1400W Electric High Pressure Washer (1595 PSI) $49.99 Delivered @ Kogan
If you want a cheap washer at least Ozito has a 3 year warranty and you can return it to Bunnings with no questions asked. Kogan stuff can…

Rivers .... back in the 1980's they were a trusted brand with prices to match but these days I'd probably look at Temu for shoes before…

jvdv001 commented on Fortis 700C Urban Hybrid Road Bike $69.99 ($59.99 with Kogan First) + Delivery @ Kogan
Given a basic pair of tyres is around $80 / $100 I can't imagine how safe this bike would be. These things should have some sort of Aust…
jvdv001 replied to Drakesy on Fortis 26" Foldable Mountain Bike $129 ($99.99 with Kogan First) + Delivery @ Kogan
A cheap bike from Kogan - I wouldn't rely on it even around the back yard. Go over a bump and a fork snaps ......not worth the risk.
Wow - a bike for $189 from Kogan. I wouldn't risk riding it to the end of my drive.…

jvdv001 replied to Sungrower on Garmin Edge 530 GPS $294.96 + Delivery ($0 with Prime) @ Amazon UK via AU
There are usually plenty of used Garmin Nuvi's (Garmin's car GPS's) on eBay. Best to get one which has "LTM" or "LM" in the title (Life…
The US version of the Edge 530 is loaded with US maps so if you want to use Australian maps you'll have to load them from OSM or some other…
jvdv001 commented on [Kogan First] Garmin Fenix 6 Pro $599, Fenix 6/6S $469, 6X Pro $699 (Official AU Stock) Delivered @ Kogan
I wouldn't touch anything form Kogan no matter what the price.
jvdv001 commented on Which Brands Do You Boycott and Why?
Kogan - for obvious and well known reasons. Flight Centre - for their refund policy. Even before Covid they had very high cancellation…
jvdv001 commented on $500 Gift Card with $1500 Spend/3 Mths on the ANZ Rewards Platinum ($0 Annual Fee 1st Year) @ Point Hacks
I applied last year to one of these ANZ promotions and got knocked back. Had more than adequate backing, an excellent credit rating but…
Grey import and if you have a problem Kogan warranties are a nightmare.
jvdv001 commented on [Kogan First] Apple iPhone 12 (128GB, Blue) $1399 Delivered + Free Kogan Sim 30 Days Expiry (Grey Import) @ Kogan
Grey import and if you have a problem Kogan warranties are a nightmare.
jvdv001 commented on Get a Dog? Yes or No
A dog is a long long term commitment and high maintenance + of course the inevitable vet fees. Too many people get dogs as an impulse buy…
You get what you pay for - and better hope you don't have an issue or need to make a warranty claim with Kogan.
jvdv001 replied to CoreJava on MAXXIS Re-Fuse 700c Tyres $19.99 (Was $49.95) + $8.95 Shipping (Free over $89.95) @ The Bicycle Store
Their FB page is also full of complaints from unhappy customers - don't people look at reviews before parting with their money?
jvdv001 commented on MAXXIS Re-Fuse 700c Tyres $19.99 (Was $49.95) + $8.95 Shipping (Free over $89.95) @ The Bicycle Store
Looking at some of the reviews they don't seem to have a very good track record. https://www.productreview.com.au/listings/the-bicycle-store
After a friend had a bad experience in trying to get a refund on a faulty refurb phone bought from Kogan I read the following story in…
jvdv001 commented on TCL 50P8M 50" UHD Android LED TV $380 + Delivery (Free C&C) @ The Good Guys eBay
Are the stands adjustable on these models - can they be moved inwards?
Bought a pair around July 2017 from JB Hi Fi and now the battery is dead - I have always used a "standard" USB wall charger to charge them…
jvdv001 replied to virhlpool on ROCK 360° Universal Car Phone Holder (Updated Edition) $2.63 USD (~$3.36 AUD) Delivered @ Aliexpress
The unit will expand to 3" and it just fits my Garmin 2455 which has a 4.5 inch screen so I doubt it would fit any Garmin with a 5" or…

Personally I wouldn't touch any deal from Domino's given it's history of underpaying employees and the scams this company employs.…
Don't know how reliable the places on the AMEX list are - one "BP" service station on the list at 58 Patterson Rd Bentleigh, 3204 is…
jvdv001 replied to bargaino on Domino's Pizza 50% off Delivered or Pick Up (Excludes Value Range) - Expires 9pm
Yes it seems the Domino's company is just ripping off the franchisees - much like 7-Eleven.
