farQueDeux Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 Xbox with Mod chip, XBMC and HD pack- would you take $100 plus post ?
norpus Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 I'll take the Sony CRT.... PM sent sheesh that was quick Gino I must admit that was my first response too just now until I saw it was in the Gold Coast and that you'd already got it For $725, it was the bargain of the century and I would have bought this in a flash as a second one to mine A great crt - great score Gino!
Foggy Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 Hey, whatever happened to "Disco Stu does not advertise" ?!

Yes, it's a great unit, a great price, very hard to pass up, particularly that it is in QLD. Hopefully this works out well.
Azz123 Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Yes, it's a great unit, a great price, very hard to pass up, particularly that it is in QLD. Hopefully this works out well. Considering Cairns is further from the Gold Coast than Melbourne is - out of curiosity, who will you use for freight Gino? A
Gino Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Will be discussing this with him on Monday. Yes, Cairns is still far away, but this is as good as it gets for me, usually sales are further south.
Disco-123 Posted March 26, 2007 Author Posted March 26, 2007 The Xbox has now been sold. Regards Disco.
Disco-123 Posted March 28, 2007 Author Posted March 28, 2007 Sony T.V looks to be taken by Gino (Congrats on a bargain!). Just Organising shipping to Cairns, so at this stage the TV is sold. The Speakers are still for sale however - These need to go quick, so all reasonable offers will be concindered. Auditions are welcome if you are on the gold coast/brissy area. Disco.
Gino Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 Sony T.V looks to be taken by Gino (Congrats on a bargain!). Just Organising shipping to Cairns, so at this stage the TV is sold. Yep, a great bargain, pity the shipping is expensive, still a great saving over all if its in top condition.
Disco-123 Posted March 29, 2007 Author Posted March 29, 2007 Yep, a great bargain, pity the shipping is expensive, still a great saving over all if its in top condition. Gino, Had a few probs with my PM service but it seems to be sorted now. I have just sent through a run down of the total costs. Let me know if you recieve the PM and if your happy with the price i will arrange delivery for next week. Regards Jared. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speakers now reduced and going for $500.00 for any one interested.
Guest EZYHD Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Yep, a great bargain, pity the shipping is expensive, still a great saving over all if its in top condition. The mind boggles over what the shipping cost was.

Gino Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Did anyone who bought anything from Disco-123 run into any problems?? Its been over a month and no sign of the television, and he is no longer taking my phone calls.
Black Dawg Down Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Did anyone who bought anything from Disco-123 run into any problems??Its been over a month and no sign of the television, and he is no longer taking my phone calls. Have you paid him the money?
Gino Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 umm... most of it, the rest was to be given on delivery. why else would I be concerned? what worries me is the freight company we had organised has a delivery guarentee, so i'm sure they don't make mistakes, also have $1000 included insurance with all deliveries. i made disco-123 aware of the problem on monday, so i doubt it takes a week to get any response from them considering their policies. now he is no longer taking my calls. i tried calling the freight company, they said they have no record of the sender, nor a record of any deliveries previously due in my area. this doesn't mean much though as they couldn't be sure without a consignment number but it's enough to concern me. it was apparently picked up at his end on april 10, and due 10-15 working days later.
Guest EZYHD Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Sorry to hear that Gino, hope it all works out OK for you.
Guest JohnA Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 thats is definately a bummer Gino, hopefully there is a good explenation and it works out ok
hired goon Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 G'day, Did anyone who bought anything from Disco-123 run into any problems?? I bought both an Xbox and a HD set-top-box from Disco123, with no problems either time. I picked up the Xbox personally, and had the STB posted to me (although this was only Gold Coast to Brisbane so not that far). Seems a decent and honest bloke from my contact, so hopefully whatever issue you have is sorted soon. --Geoff
Gino Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 I hope so too. I don't think he is an dishonest person, he was quite friendly and helpful, but his sudden lack of communication, and the circumstancial evidence, gives me a bad feeling I'd rather not have. I'm not trying to accuse him of anything, I just want reassurance from him, or from others who have had previous experience with him, so thanks Geoff, makes me feel better.

Bummer you haven't got it yet Gino That is a great tele, I would have bought it if you hadn't and I already have one. Great price, but only if it arrives undamaged I guess
Gino Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 This is unbelievable.. I've been trying to contact him, he tells me that it took the courier company a week just to tell him the tv was damaged is in transit back to him, currently in Brisbane, 6 weeks later! Who here buys that? Meanwhile, a PM from earlier gets to him, and he thinks I'm threatening him. All I said was there are mates who live close by who could check out what's up, people who have bought from him before so it wouldn't be hard to find him, and he says I'm threatening him. So apparently now the deal is off. And no mention of my money either!
Gino Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Ok.. so now he picks up the phone, I just wanted to make it clear to him that I'm not the threatening type, although he doesn't believe me but what else can I do. At least I feel better about it. So he is giving me my money back no problems. So hopefully I get that back soon. I'm just very disappointed that what should have been a very smooth deal turned so sour.
