It all seems very sus to me.
A mate is all exited about his new RTT for $695 ish, I couldn't rain on his parade as the type of bloke to get a bit pissed about that sort of thing.
Hope he has no problems.
Yes they did trade under Tigerz11
Not sure of any other names.

I have noticed this from day 1 of Supacentre opening their website! I think I even mentioned it somewhere on the forum a long time ago...
Funnily enough it actually ended up on the parody show exposing false advertising on TV. Shows called Check out on ABC22 some evenings. I pissed my self laughing when I saw it ....
Today it's $50, FREE postage ! Tomorrow it's $45 with $5 postage fee... IF you get their daily emails (around 6 a day), you'll know what I'm talking about.

The way I see it is. Some items are OK to buy from these guys. I mean for example a side wall for the awning for dirt cheap. Ground under-tent cover, spare wheel bag, tyre deflater.... etc...
Stuff that when it breaks (which it will), you just chuck out, who gives a shit. It cost peanuts.
But it get scary when people buy winches from these blokes and expect a few tones of their valuable 4x4 and maybe a family inside, to be hanging off it ! Fridges that catch fire, compressors that work once, etc... Stuff that can get you in trouble or stranded.
Ofcourse this shit can happen with the high shelf brands too... But the odds are definitely in the cheap shit corner's favor.

Actually went into 4by supacenta on the weekend, wanted to get an awning for the folks for chrissy. . I felt a bit dirty as i pulled up out the front, went in the place was a bit wierd, no sales people helping anyone out just stuff on display (ridiculously cheap) and a massive queue winding is way through the shop leading to some desks. Anyway waited for a tiny bit then came to my senses and left. Couldn't believe how cheap everything was some stuff might be right but doesn't give you much faith, sure half the stuff people were getting will probably break and get thrown out before too long. Bit sad living in such a consumer society now days 😕.
Anyway probably going to drop in at roadrunner i think always had great service from those guys. .

Road runner have a massive Xmas sale on their rro brand awnings at the moment
End of the day it's probably the same factory/similar quality to supa centre but at least you have peace of mind for after sales service.

I've had the Kings Awning for a couple of years now and it gets used a lot. No issues with the quality, so not all their stuff is rubbish...
