In that respect it makes sense, if they want to make more money. But why bother with a sale price in the first place then? Usually the more you buy, the lower the price. I'm finding this very interesting. Nothing negative at all - just interesting observations that can be a little perplexing. I thin...

I am a fun loving person from Sydney. Expected to meet some expats... but it just hasn't happened for whatever reason (mosly they are family types and not intersted in meeting me I guess?) but boy.... your message is like 'from above'! nice to know there is someone out there who understands. I even ...

I have been here 6 month now and wish I knew then what I knew now. when I got here, I looked at EASILY 50 places. They were either really old an daggy, or tiny. I was looking in the 2000-2500k range.

He wanted to get 4 of them, so asked how much for 4, thinking it would be around $27... but they said no, it would be $43! nat...
