Recently I saw Geoff Harvey of Harvey Norman on TV whining about cheap stuff being bought on line from overseas (savings around 30%). My rather big ears pricked up,because I love a bargain and am too mean to spit.
So,can anyone recommend any overseas sites from which they have bought anything and trust?
Here in Oz I mostly buy through Ebay and have found that service from USA and China, in particular, is amazingly good, along with their lower prices. US business can deliver me goods in less time than OZ businesses can! Work that one out!
It's time that Harvey Norman and other Oz retailers got their act together, get themselves proper online shopping systems, reduce their prices for online buyers, and realised that this is the future of retailing and is what the public want.
Most Oz businesses are pathetic online, with no response at all to e-mails, or responding weeks after you've already purchased elsewhere, no prices on their Web sites and no shopping systems in place.
My ISP, Telstra who has the monopoly in my area for my mobile broadband when away from home, has not been able to process credit card recharges for a couple of weeks so far, due to their system being "upgraded", this is along with their pathetic speeds and unreliable connections!
OZ business, get with it or get left behind!
There are many intelligent Christians, no doubt, but an "intellectual Christian", is surely an oxymoron.
