one of mine seems to think it's a dog - can't ignore, wants constant pats and attention

My cat thinks its a dog too. She retrieves things you throw and puts them back at your feet to throw again.

Have never tried that, but I don't think he would - fetching it would eat into pat time

i will, just gonna see if I can get in any cheaper through duty free

Don;t buy Duty free it a rip off.

(I can price one up for you next week if you like.)

what I suggest is shop around and buy one in AU eg Kogan or JB HiFI then use TRS.

For those unaware of TRS:

you buy product in AU,

if item (or combined items on one receipt) is greater than 300AU and less than 1000 (this can be combined for multiple travelers so up to 2000$)

and you are taking the item with you

you go to the counter after passport control

shop invoice, item and give Credit card, they then refund the GST.

so you get best price less GST

DUty free in AU is rip off, and very small in Fiji

short of going to HK this is the cheapest way to get one

oh and goods must be bought less than 30 days prior to travel.

ehh.

if you can check when you go it'll be good, i can get the 16gb through work for 350$ which seems to be about $20 off lol. but thats probably as far as i get with Apple setting prices. Kogan was about the same..

might just get one locally then

hmm, I think I've had postage refunded - but yeah, they usually make you pay return postage

If they refunded me the total purchase price including postage, I'd happily pay the return postage as it'd be regular post and cost SFA...I paid a massive premium for express

Yeah a PayPal dispute usually gets you a full refund. You and a seller both get a chance to plead your case and then PayPal make their decision based on the evidence. It could go either way but generally they'll side with the buyer

Interesting.

my cat is currently sitting on my feet. being a cat.

also loves sitting in front of the tv when ps3-ing or watching anime.

totally a cat.

When I had a cat, Laptops and iPads were like pussy magnets...

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
