ozzie version of amazon
I used Amazon a lot in the UK as it sells virtually everything at a really good price and with free delivery. They don't seem to deliver to Australia though. Anyone come across an Ozzie version of this?

There isn't an Aussie equivalent.....though I think it would do well if they opened one, judging by the number of times the question gets asked on here! |
Re: ozzie version of amazon
You can get the uk site to deliver but your best bet is to use the american site. I have bought stuff from there, most recently a kindle ebook reader and theres never been any problems delivering to aus. I still use the amazon uk site to deliver and wrap presents for people living in uk :p

http://www.fishpond.com.au/ They do games and toys as well. Check out the spiel.... ."all our prices are better than Amazon guaranteed" |
Re: ozzie version of amazon
Amazon is big in the UK partly because of price pressure from grey imports, VAT free sales from Jersey, cheap delivery and being in the EU (market ten times the size of Oz). None of that exists in Oz.

Re: ozzie version of amazon
What kind of delivery costs are there for using amazon uk whilst in Oz? I know if you order in excess of £15 you get free deliveries in the uk.

It looks good, probably not as good as the Kindle but they are selling it for $199, which is a pretty good price. I might get one. |
Re: ozzie version of amazon
I was recently pointed in the direction of www.thenile.com.au
It looks good, but I haven't ordered anything yet. |

Re: ozzie version of amazon
We've always ordered from Amazon USA for books. I'll definitely check out some of the others though I have used OO.com.au for quite a few things and their service is great.

Re: ozzie version of amazon
the bookdepository.com (also .co.uk) is good and offers prices incl delivery- so often cheaper here than Amazon.
And they deliver within a week- at least that has been my experience. |
