Aussies: best place for online shopping

mainly regarding CD's is this place. I've checked the prices on the CD's and they are the same or cheaper than JB Hi-Fi. Not only that, but since you live in Australia you get FREE DELIVERY!!!! As soon as you pay, if it's in stock they'll ship it straight out.

They have a pretty good selection of CD's that you won't find instore or can't order from JB. Speaking of JB, it's taken them 5 weeks to get me CD's i ordered and still no news.

But here's the cool thing....everytime you write a product review they credit $0.25 to your account. I've racked up $4.00 so far off my next purchase simply by writing shitty reviews (only have to be 50 words). My first review was Bun B's Trill which i copied and pasted what Skip wrote on HHC (sorry, haha)

I'm gonna be a repeat customer for sure!

That's awesome... technically if you can be fucked, you could get everything for free by writing reviews.

It says 50 words right? So could you do something like

I L I K E T H I S C D V E R Y M U C H S O I B O U G H T I T A N D S A Y H I TO Y O U R M U M F O R M E B E C A U S E I W A N T T O B E L I K E R O V E M C M A N U S A N D S A M K E K O V I C H I F T H A T I S H O W I T S S P E L T


MS Word says that's 116 words.

Yeah the prices are pretty high. Most of the stuff I buy at JB is around $12-$16, I can't find anything under $20 here.

Yeah JB has some great specials, and since I'm broke I just pick up them lol

Brought so many albums for under $10 from there.

well around here, pretty much every rap/hip-hop album from JB is $27+....unless it's one of those popular ones like 50 cent or nelly or chingy.

But like i said before, JB doesn't have that good of a selection so that's why i buy from here.

I've had shit all to do today, fucked up my ankle recently and makes it very hard to walk.

And as I said I do them very quickly, just write some bullshit and press submit...and I had around 15 reviews on my comp already that I put on. (Y)

Wu-Tang Clan member The Ghostface Killah releases yet another solo album 13 years after the Wu-Tang's first amazing album Enter The 36 Chambers dropped, and it's definetely a good album with great production as Ghostface's albums generally have. Stand out track on the album is the soulfoul looped Biscuits featuring Trife.

35 seconds (Y)

$18.75 :P

It's that easy yes?

50 Cent is at it again, trying to claim his popularity among the teens. I absolutely dislike all of his "gangsta" music and guns and killings and such. Total rubbish. What the hell was Candy Shop? Absolute garbage. The only decent song on the album was the Hate It or Love It Remix with his G-Unit crew.


I'm a dork :?
