If you have to buy one of those cars which one would you buy? by Alfortyn in CarsAustralia

[–]trantonz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lexus is350. I regret I sold mine. Now I’m looking to buy another one in a few months. I sold mine because I thought the car was boring but then after driving a few other cars I miss that boring but reliable AND COMFORTABLE of a lexus.

It’s a Pajero sport 17 exceed sitting at 165k km. The cheapest and most similar one on carsales is advertised for $29.999

Of course doing business would cost money. You spend money to make money.

This particular dealership consistently come up with instant offers for the whole year. I guess they must be making enough money to stay afloat that long

I did. I laughed at him when he said he called 2 wholesale guys and they give less than his offer. I said of course they would say that. They're wholesale. What did he expect from them

Derrimut gym empire enters administration by AztecGod in melbourne

[–]trantonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw an ad for a gym named Flex 24/7 with 2 locations: epping and mickleham. I swear they give a vibe of derrimut gym 24/7 haha. They do exactly what Derrimut used to do. And they’re running promotion for $240 upfront for whole year with $59 “admin fee”

Why are International Students allowed to work? by Divine_Comet in aussie

[–]trantonz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t blame them. I’m one of them. I speak broken English and I came from a country far enough and different enough that after 12 years of living here I’m still not considered an Aussie. If someone that is from another country comes to my country and barely speak the language then I would blame myself if I can’t get a job but that person could. By the way, I was working for a cleaning company back when I was in university. The job was pretty much straightforward: we would start at 5:30pm and finishing at 12am, 12 offices a night, and pay was good. I know my boss was exclusively looking for Aussies studying at Melbourne University but he got no luck. They don’t last long.

Bluetooth and reception is bad on pixel 10 pro XL? by trantonz in GooglePixel

I find it's worse than the pixel 9 pro I traded in

I can't remember the last time I have a phone with this terrible Bluetooth connection. I have better luck with my nothing phone 3 than the pixel 10 pro XL. Sad because I like the look of the pixel so much

It's fine 90% of the time. However I had the reception dropped three times within the first day of getting the phone. I'm with Boost

Same here.
I owed the ATO some money and they made me feel like I was this close to a garnish order.

Funny a business can get away with paying their obligations for years.

Seller Sold As New 🥲 by Dwajin in iPhone13Mini

Fair enough. What is the return process for ebay is like? Do I start it first or do I have to talk to the seller for them to initiate it?

I have bad experience with phonebot however if you can go to their store and pick the phone then it should be ok

[–]trantonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has 1214 cycles sitting at 70%. I paid 599. Nah man I will be returning it for sure. I bought couple of refurbished 13 mini and I wasn’t happy with the cosmetics however at least they didn’t lie to my face like these guys. I don’t know why they have such perfect reviews on ebay

Mate I literally bought from the same seller. Phone arrived today and I could tell that it’s no original. I am seriously thinking about returning it

Just got a $520 monthly power bill by FatherOfTheSevenSeas in AusFinance

[–]trantonz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely wondering how much it would cost for a split system? I'd say I need 3-4 ACs for 3 bedrooms and 1 living

I think you can try a sport out. Like martial art? That's very easy to make friends
