Yeah our government are greedy bastards and started demanding all online sellers ad 10% GST (goods & services tax) to all purchases under $1000 (previously exempt). You can find a bunch of online sellers that don't bother (and aren't big enough to be chased by tax authorities) so it's a bit hit...

Hey what are those stands for the Forte IIIs? They are perfect.

Been skulking this thread for a while and the Klipsch seem to be the gorgeous speakers I will aspire to. So, weird question... but does anyone know a Klipsch dealer that would ship to Australia? Because the prices here are ridiculous - a pair of Forte III go for just under $A10,000. But if I...

$US380 + $US20 shipping + $US40 sales tax = $630 of our Aussie dollars. 😩😩😩

Apologise I know this is probably well-worn ground but I couldn't find anything to help me, so.... I have had my RP2 for 2 1/2 years and starting to consider a cartridge upgrade - but I'm a novice in cartridges so would love some advice! (my setup is in sig 👇🏽) Am I due? I play for maybe 6-10...

Great advice - this looks to be a great CD player for the price point! Assume the USB input is for digital files? Could be handy for all those download codes I have never used 🤔 Longer-term I like this solution a - of course the Cambridge Audio CXN I like is a comfortable $2000 but I will look...

Seems like $A1250 is the magic number number down here - that's what the CD6006 retails for as well LOL. NAD & Cambridge are plentiful down here - range from about $400 up. If I need to spend a little over $A1000 for a high quality CD player (one that I won't upgrade for a while as will...

Actually just checked - the Marantz costs the same down here as the Rega - $A1250 (welcome to the buying power of our South Pacific Peso!)

LOL - seriously why does everything need an customisable LED light these days? Is this like the new lava lamp of the 2020s??

As we face our second period of lockdown here in Melbourne I think I need to add a CD player to my collection, currently don't have any way of playing CDs in the house (except the PS4 - ugh). While vinyl will remain the queen of the system there's albums not on streaming or vinyl hiding away in...

Surprised you liked Christine & The Queens so much - kinda left me cold. But then again I'm always slow on the uptake with music ... takes me multiple listens!

Mine arrived today... June 24th. I know good things come to those who wait, but FFS... @Skalap any luck in Paris??

Wow - that is exactly when my last update came through as well... something has definitely gone wrong. Have emailed them to follow up - this is utterly ridiculous. It's June!!

Is anyone still waiting on their Cherry Tree package for 2020? I know I'm way down in the arse-end of the world in Australia, but it's like June now...

Aussie dollar has plummeted probably 15% in the last month, and throw in US shipping (which is ridiculous, even compared to Europe unless it's Amazon) and yeah, I ain't buyin' shit for a while...

Midnight wake up!! OK thats intense ... I'm far too lazy to get up that early LOL. Would consider a 5am wakeup but given you don't know what they have in stock isn't the whole thing a really risky roll of the dice? Love Oh Jean - always pop into there on RSD and the Kiwi owner is a legend (also...

Which Goldmine did you hit? Fitzroy North is a good one but haven't tried Carlton North. And what time did you get there for the queue? Happy Valley happy to help customers who email ahead of time so tried that too. And I'm with you on Discrepancy Records - they gouge their customers like...

Bumping this thread ahead of Record Store Day... Would love to get tips and tricks from you fellow Aussies (and particularly Melburnians) on who usually stocks the best/biggest RSD hauls? My 2 cents - Happy Valley on Smith Street in Collingwood. Only has a small record section down the back...

Hey mate - Melburnian here - can I help? Will be heading out on RSD for sure... Meantime I would be eternally grateful to ANYONE who could grab me a copy of the Hackers soundtrack...

Well - that was a random week. Driven by some classic Australian 90s Indie, new Fat Freddy's Drop, some LCD bangers and the Nightmares on Wax Back to Mine - which is a new love!
