OzBargain

OzBargain was once a reputable Australian website which was community driven, where users could post bargains, freebies and deals. However those days are over, as most of the deals posted are now sponsored advertised posts. For example eBay deals are often posted by associated sponsered users, but are never marked as such. The website now promotes dirty business practices such as "price jacking" (where a business claims they are having a big 20% off sale, but actually raise prices prior to the sale starting, resulting in the prices being more expensive). They also allow users to posts advertising of products at RRP with no discounts as bargains (Nintendo SNES mini console is a popular example). The majority of users on the website are now sheeples, and unable to tell what a real bargain is anymore. Instead they are easily manipulated by popular shill users, that sneakily post sponsered/affiliated posts as bargains without the sheeples being aware.
