    Don't buy anything from these idiots.

    Hi guys,
    About 11 weeks ago I ordered a DVD box set from a company called KangarooDVD.com. After repeated e-mails it finally arrived today.
    These f#$%wits sent me a pirate copy of the series I was after, each episode was recorded off the TV and burnt to DVD. The picture and sound quality is f#$%ing terrible.
    I have reported this site to AFACT (Australian Federation Against Copyright Theft) but I am not holding my breath for them to do anything.
    I will also be putting up warnings on every forum that i can think of as well as FaceBook not to buy anything from these a$$holes. I should at least get my money back when I dispute the charge on my credit card.
    They have a very nice, professionally done website, and it all looks pretty legit. Don't get taken in by these scammers like i was. They are nothing but f@#$ing thieves.

    No unfortunately I didn't, the site doesn't give you an option to use paypal. I will be disputing the charge with my bank and cancelling the credit card that i used to pay for it.

    A friend got me a TV series on DVD when she was O/S
    Unlike the others she has bought over the years,this lot had snippets of adds between episodes, and even adds along the screen for future TV shows
    Quality,picture,sound was shocking,yet the package was as good if not better than any other DVD that was bought
    Usually a cheap paper sleeve in a cheap plastic sleeve is a give away to whats inside
    Not many well packaged inferior stuff out there
    Very hard to prove a DVD thats bought is the one that did or didnt come in any package after its open

    Before buying from anywhere online always research first, that's what I always do as usually someone has already been stung and has put it up for all to see on the net.

    If you looked up there name first you would of stayed well clear, well I would of after all the negative comments I found about that company
    Time is never wasted when your wasted all the time

    Just a quick check for people a site with .com.au is easier to trace then just .com. .com.au addresses have to be registered with an ABN. Gives the officials half a chance of finding someone.
