Chappy

It might help you to pay a little more attention before posting. The line just below the part you made bold completely negates your entire point. I know retailers are not the full picture and frankly i don't care, just like the consumer does not give 2 shits. If something is not done to fix this issue the entire chain is going to fall over, starting with retailers. You may not see this as fair because the retailers will be the first to pay the price, and maybe it is not, but that won't stop it from happening. The suppliers will get theirs once there are no retailers left to sell their over-priced products. You can shift the blame, you can make excuses and it won't change a thing. If something big does not change with the retail industry in Australia, it is f**ked. :edit: As bad as it may be for retailers, i think Australia's retail industry needs a big crash, it seems like the only way to purge the country of the greedy suppliers and inefficient double handling that's going on, not to mention the shameless price gouging by people like Steam and iTunes. These suppliers won't do anything until something happens to hurt them financially. Unfortunately for retail, they will suffer long before the suppliers do.

There is no excuse the retailers can make which will stand up to the un-deniable fact that the rest of the world pays far less for their games than we do. We can argue whether its the governments fault, the importers fault or the retailers fault but the fact remains, something big had better change and it had better change soon or the retail sector is going to fall over. Either all the involved parties can get together and discuss how to steer their ship away from that big water fall, or they can hang onto their greed and ride that thing over the edge. Either way the buyers will win in the end because if the retailers all go belly up, it will just open the market for online sellers to take their place. Good riddance to retail i say.

Since i heard the release date for this game i have been basing all my estimates of time off it. "that bill is not due untill after Space Marine comes out" "that expires in a couple of weeks, but at least Space Marine will be out" Can't wait! :edit: On another note, i have been waiting weeks for somebody on NS.com to make a thread for this game, and the lack of thread made me believe people in the car scene didn't care about 40k. At least SAU came through

I have been googling like mad, searching Nissan Japan's website (which is surprisingly bare) and finally i searched this forum, and i can't seem to find what i am looking for. I want to read up on the stock specs for the V36 Skyline lineup. I cannot seem to find definitive answers on wether or not the 370GT sedan can come with both AWD and the 7spd auto. Does the V36 370GT Coupe come in AWD? What are their weight and handling specs? Fuel mileage? 0-100 times? 1/4 mile times? Any help would be appreciated. :edit: In a stroke of (delayed) genious i decided to search the Infiniti USA site, and i found this: http://www.infinitiusa.com/g_sedan/specs-options All it seems to lack is 0-100 and 1/4 mile times....

I am currently looking into all the practicality issues of owning a V36 Skyline. I want a 370gt 7speed AWD sedan, but if they don't end up being comlianced, i will probably settle for a 350gt In either case most spare parts stores don't even acknowledge the existence of the V35 and V36 Skylines. I had a similar problem with my 180sx back before they were largely recognised. I used to say it was a 92 SR20DET Silvia which usually worked fine. So would it be right to assume if i get a 350gt i just tell the guy in the store that i need spares for a Nissan 350z, and a 370z if i get the 370gt? P.S. sorry if this has been covered before, i searched the FAQ and the other threads in this section before i posted, but i couldn't find anything!
