1242137 2011-11-06 23:57:00 I think they use the same template globally, and change the language of the front end. The PHP strings sent in the URL for filters and such are not in English. Agent_24 (57)
1242138 2011-11-07 00:01:00 Since they launched the current site I find it far easier to just visit retailers websites, I don't like jumping through multiple hops to be presented with info that's crap. Metla (12)

Yeah, agreed, their redesign really doesn't work that well imo.

1242140 2011-11-07 00:35:00 Try http://m.pricespy.co.nz/

or www.hmii.co.nz or www.gearbot.co.nz


To be honest though, I find Pricespy has the better detailed listings. The other sites have a much faster interface but where Pricespy would give the actual model number of a HDD, Gearbot for example may just say "1TB Hitachi drive" which isn't much use.

Thanks for the pricespy (I guess mobile) link. Bookmarked it.
