When I'm in Aussie, I hardly ever walk out with less than 5 dvd's. Will be good if they can better the Warehouses prices.

Grr, bought an MP3 player from there, brought it back three times.  Then the assistant dropped a big hint not to buy that particular brand.  Got the feeling that there was no quality control, and I was quality control weeding out their stock.

It's at 1 Willis St, under the BNZ tower, next to the foodcourt.

Remember Real Groovy is still going at the top of Cuba St.

Yes, Real Groovy is now your locally owned and operated independent record store.

Something else that Auckland f**ked up before Wellington stepped in and saved it!

Was in Melb in 2005, or was it 2006?  Went to JB in Elizabeth St.  Bought some DVDs at great prices!! Paid by credit card.  Entered PIN out of habit.  Then I remembered Ozzie don't take PIN, you have to sign the reciept (how backward).  Well, when I looked a the next month's credit card statement the purchases I made while entering a PIN never showed up!!  The 2 purchases I made (only totalled $AU60) I got for free!!  I don't know whether it was a coincidence.  But hey, good to hear that JB is coming to Wgton.

That store is ridiculous. I visited the one in Hamz the other week. Havn't been back as I'm terrified of where my money is goint to disappear to. Wellington, right in the centre of town, is going to be an absolute nightmare.

 
But a f**kn awesome store!
