Thank you. So I buy the flights through the Aeroplan site at the end of the day?

My partner and I both took up a credit card deal posted on OzBargain some time ago and managed to rack up >50,000 Aeroplan points each. We…

We did that and everything was fine and no-one really cared - which is actually the Australian way. But then John Howard realised he could…

Actually, resistance to the Roman invasion was pretty staunch in Britain, ever heard of Boudicca? Of course 'Us Anglos' were still in…

Keep on those red pills, mate, gee whiz.

So ill-mannered, wish your type would depart Ozbargain, instead!

Yeah, this deal has been available at the outlet near my work for some weeks. Can confirm that the the tuna flavour is disgusting. I was…

I'm happy with a stick.

Never understood the anxiety around 'low ball' offers. Treat it as invitation to name your actual price or refer back to the listed price,…

Not career advice but will get you out of the jealousy cycle you talk of: tell one of these people that you are experiencing feelings of…

So NSW for example is more democratic than WA or VIC - is that what you think?

Would you mind pointing out just one manifestation of WA not being democratic? Sorry if I am being obtuse - I just want to understand your…

In what way is WA not democratic... I mean, compared to other states?

I would normally aim for 10-15% off the sticker price at retail music stores.

I think the way to look at it is how often do you play it? If you play it a few times a week, it will pay you back nicely. If you play less…

Great deal! Most places will price-match and then of course you can play the guitar first. But Gibson do not make a bad guitar so whatever…

Top stuff!

I just activated my first Amex card today. Should these show up in the app or how do I access them?

> tenderhooks (sic) You get my vote for knowing that's not how it's spelt, but brazenly spelling it like that anyway.

Falcons were even cheaper. Price per kilo, those second-hand Australian cars were a bargain I shall miss the next time I am in the market.

Username checks out. OP is in Perth. Plenty of parking and a car is pretty much a necessity.

Any of those three mics will be satisfactory in terms of sound quality. The Shures are very rugged beasts and that is part of what you pay…

Buy the Rode as you can just plug and play. The Shure requires an audio interface with a mic preamp.

Not sure what your point is then? Perhaps that a 5 grand microphone is better than a 35 dollar microphone? Seems a bit irrelevant to what…

You really can't go wrong with the Shures, and clients in studios expect to see them. But they are not superior to the Behringer soundwise,…

I mean I love the XM8500, but if you are worried about getting the wrong mic and you never had your own mic before, get the SM58 (but not…

I don't think you can use a standard SM58 like the one posted with a BLX transmitter. They both use the SM58 capsule but the bodies looke…

Should be able to get something going with that set-up and have some fun at least. With 24 bit recording, you don't need a super hot signal…

Good deal and you should be able to sell one of these used for the same price, as these are the industry standard and go like hotcakes.…
