Don't buy anything from these idiots.
« on: October 18, 2012, 06:27:00 PM »
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.

Hi everyone, i have posted an into in the right section, meant to do it some time ago but just never got around to it. It's not the best thing to post up for my first time but I wanted to warn as many people as I can not to have anything to do with this company.

Please tell, did they still have station promos & ads ? That would be the last straw in this rip off scam.

The DVD's are really poor quality, looks like they were recorded from an analog broadcast. They have the NBC logo in the bottom left corner. They are not widescreen like they should be and the image is in a rectangle in the middle of the screen. I have lodged a dispute with my bank and I should get my money back in the next 45 days hopefully, and I have cancelled the card that I paid this idiot with.
