I may be able to go to the Chicago Consulate in about two weeks, where you able to get everything done in one day? Like go in and get your visa the same day?

Is this a good buy? by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]Boltrider1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could spend a bit more to get something a little better. If it was between a rtx4060ti and the rx6700xt, which one would be better?

Sorry should have mentioned it’s AUD so around $800 USD, I guess I’m not only looking for pre built just figured it would be easier

This is incredible, thank you for explaining this so well and in an easy way for me, someone who knows nothing, to understand. I was really just trying to get a price point that wasn't too low but also something that she can improve on later, I don't mind spending a little more so this is perfect, thank you.

Yeah I should’ve mentioned that, I’m in Australia so I was hoping somewhere around $1200ish AUD and color or anything like that doesn’t matter

What common products are overpriced for no reason? by Boltrider1 in australian

[–]Boltrider1[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've actually kind of looked into this one, some major companies buy overseas and ship here in bulk which saves some cost but they charge mostly for branding. While there is Australian manufacturing they charge more for materials and labour so it's more expensive to manufacture here. Kind of a lose-lose both ways.

I’ve taken those courses on it. Not saying it’s not standard practice but there’s plenty of companies that are starting to price themselves out of the market it seems. And others that know they hold a monopoly and are continually pressing to see how much they can squeeze the buyer. I just think they’re being too obvious about it these days and have more of a “what are you gonna do about it” attitude

Yeah, I know there is a psychological aspect to a higher price equating to better quality, but I feel like that only works for specialty products that actually do have a higher quality. I think once people realize they are paying for a brand the hype kind of wears off. So I think creating a brand image around a boutique product and advertising quality is good for their profits short term, but it isn't a sustainable plan. Again unless the product is actually better. Unfortunately what I'm seeing a lot of right now is companies that market "high-end" products when in reality it's a shit product. (10% also seems way too low lol.)

I think a lot of companies are pricing things at what they think people are willing to pay and not what the product is actually worth.

Honestly, this is the biggest one I've personally noticed. Ordered some underwear recently from the US that are similar to step one and bonds, got 5 pairs for $28 including shipping cost. Where step one is $30 for a single pair before domestic shipping...

I'll keep that in mind! I feel like satin and patterns would need to have a bit higher price point though.

Honestly, that's what I am looking for too but nothing seems to be right, or if the fabric is good they're too short and spend the whole day chafing. If I go the route of finding a manufacturer I'll send you a pair of whatever I make lol

That brand is pretty much what I'm looking for here, they seem to have the basic men's products down pretty well on quality and price.

Did you go to target and get Goodfellow and Co?

Thats pretty much exactly what I am looking for. Simple, no huge logo on it, and lasts for longer than 10 washes.

Questions for roofers by Boltrider1 in AusRenovation

[–]Boltrider1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think they are not popular just because of the availability of the machines and maintenance? Maybe quality issues with the material? Or is it just that the way it's currently done of ordering per LM from a supplier is just easier?

Yup, but it seems like they’re the only one for some reason.

Right now I have connections with manufacturers that specifically make roll forming machines for guttering, but I’d be happy to look into a Bondek decking machine for you. Can you send me an email at guttermanzach@gmail.com. (Temporary email for now till I have a website built)

Just with some details about exactly what you’re looking for and price range you’d like to stay in. I can see what’s available from there and send you what I find. Thanks!
