TCL 37″ LCD TV from Catch of The Day — $1099 Today Only

scotty on 17/03/2007 at 2:33 pm, filed under General

After posted the previous entry, I spotted this 37 inc/94 cm LCD TV from Catch of the Day — for only $1,099 + delivery! Stand is $99 extra, but it is still dirt cheap for a LCD TV at this size. Spec looks pretty impressive, especially the contrast, which has always been LCD’s weakness against […]

Deals Direct is running a special promotion with free shipping on selected categories. No PayPal required :) Looks like there is going to be quite a bit of browsing for me to do :) So far I have found Creative Zen Micro 8Gb quite a good bargain at $269. However I am not sure whether […]

Deals Direct Free Delivery on all CDs this Weekend

scotty on 10/03/2007 at 6:23 pm, filed under General

Deals Direct has free delivery on all its music CDs this weekend (10-11 March). We have previously discussed Deals Direct’s music CDs here, concerning how legitimate they are as they were imported from (possibly) China. I guess the conclusion is that they are legit as you can freely sell imported CDs. That does make their […]

Mono Laser Printer for Under $100

It has been a while since I last wrote about printers. After all, who really rely on the dead trees anyway? Oh wait. I am applying for automatic direct debit to pay for my credit card bill today, and I have to print out the form, sign it, and mail it back. Ink on paper […]

Quite a few interesting deals from Deals Direct‘s “Month End Madness Sale”. Big LCD TVs are always good measure of how yesterday’s luxury items are getting ridiculously cheap these days. Here we have Mitsubishi Diamond Digital 68cm Widescreen LCD TV for $799 (OzBargain entry here). Yup. The same company that used to make Zero carrier-based […]

OO.com.au TV Sale — 102cm Plasma for Under $1,200

I thought it was cheap when I saw it two weeks ago, and it has just gone cheaper! Check this out from OO.com.au — 106cm / 42in Plasma High-Definition TV for $1,199.95 + delivery, offer ends this Saturday. I guess the raise of LCD TVs has really pushed down the price of these big plasma […]

Jumba Domain — AU Domains for $24.95/2 years

scotty on 20/02/2007 at 10:01 pm, filed under General

My old host, Jumba, has launched some new services today, including their new domain reselling business. While I don’t appreciate them mocking the nerds in their front-page, I do like their prices — $24.95 for .com.au/.net.au/.id.au domains for 2 years. That is the cheapest as far as I know. Certainly cheaper than everyone on the […]

I Want a PayPal Debit Card

I have been a PayPal user for many years, but I have only recently started receiving money in my PayPal account. Funds that I have received were in two different currencies — Australian Dollar and US Dollar. Using up Aussie dollar in my PayPal account is easy. Many online shops would let you pay in […]

Cheap Macs from Harris Technology

scotty on 03/02/2007 at 12:03 am, filed under General

Update: Check their Apple Mac Promotion page on all the limited stock items. I just found out that Harris Technology is selling cheap Apple Macs — the slightly out-dated model. Still very nice, and quite a bit cheaper than the current line-ups. Take this Macbook Pro for example. Intel Core Duo 2Ghz 512Mb RAM 80Gb […]

Free Shipping from Deals Direct Today with PayPal Payments

scotty on 31/01/2007 at 9:28 am, filed under General

Love it when Deals Direct offering those site-wide free delivery via PayPal, because Delivery cost has always been a big hurdle for online shops. Goods might be cheap, but in a big country like Australia, the cost of delivery can sometimes be more than the price of the goods. I happen to have quite a […]

20%-25% off Nursery Products from Kmart

scotty on 15/01/2007 at 10:07 pm, filed under General

Kmart‘s latest catalogue is out! While I posted on OzBargain about their 15% off computers and notebooks sale (it’s on page 9), but who buys computers from Kmart anyway? Meanwhile I also see that they have great deals on strollers and baby seats, as well as infant clothing. Great to prepare the 2nd one of […]

Highlander 40in LCD TV + PVR $1799 from Deals Direct

scotty on 12/01/2007 at 10:25 pm, filed under General

Last week an old friend messaged me over IM asking about my opinion on plasma TVs. I told him that I preferred LCD because of the higher resolution. I told him that the sweet spot is around 26-32 inch, which you can probably find a good no-brand one for under AUD$1,000. “But 26 inch is […]
