Title: SPECIAL: Free shipping for any study guides purchased in the next 3 weeks!
Post by: enwiabe on October 08, 2012, 02:08:11 pm
Hey guys, as a special exam offer (also known as please help us clear out any excess stock we have), we're offering free shipping on all our books, available here:

http://www.atarnotes.com/?p=estore&category=Study%20Guides

This is in addition to the member discount, so you can pick up Chemistry, Physics, PE and Legal Studies for just $30! You can also get English for just $22. Get on it now before it's too late!

If you place an order before 3 PM on any given day, we'll ship it same day and you should receive it the next day. If after 3 PM, you should only be waiting 2 days. So you can get these guides quickly. And they're so worth it!

I know you gotta advertise but can you stop redirecting people, it's annoying as s**t.

Is the English book going to change for next year? Or will it be the same?

I deeply apologise that you are mildly inconvenienced while you use a free resource.

English book content will remain the same, so no sweat of you buy it now or next year.

I second this, though not with such a strong tone. Makes this website unusable when not logged in, especially on clunky mobiles.

Thank you for the constructive feedback. Can you elaborate on how it makes the site unusable on a phone

Mobiles/my iPad has issues with cookies randomly getting wiped, passwords not getting saved etc. It's a pain to login every time I want to visit this site, so I'd rather browse threads without logging in if I don't have to.

With forced redirection, I'm okay with getting redirected once and then going back into what I was after (usually the uni forums), but when I get redirected every time I reopen the site, I give up and just close the site. Makes it a tad frustrating to come here during work/breaks.

Also if this thread isn't completely loaded before I hit back or whatever, I get redirected back here again. And again.

Agree with the redirecting thing, but I also find these resources useful at times. I hope there someway to solve this, lol.

This is great! Was going to send a money order last week but never got around to it. Planning on sending one tomorrow. Could I use the same order code I was provided with last week, or would I need to obtain a new one for the order without postage?

Use the same order code, but subtract $6.

Noted, I think the solution is to simply have the forced announcements with less frequency.

As in the English Study guide?
One word, "priceless".
Highly highly endorse getting it.

Au contraire, mon amie!

It is in fact priced at a steal of just $22!

I would make a fantastic used car salesman.

The Language Analysis section is definitely useful, as a minimum. Would be beneficial even a week before the exam, something in there for everyone. Depends on how good you are at English though.

Sweet, thanks man. I'd pay $22 for a point or two on LA. Might be the diff between 39 and 40.

I placed an order for the English study guide last Sunday, and still haven't received it. When should I expect it to arrive?

I need your name so I can check on the status of your order.

All orders placed up to this morning have been shipped. Australia Post can take anywhere from 1 day to 2 weeks to ship things, and unfortunately we can't track this because the parcels are not sent by registered mail.

Occasionally AusPost also fails at finding addresses and we get books marked return to sender.

Please email me at nina[at]atarnotes.com if you don't receive your book after about 2 weeks.

I got mine today, ordered on the 11th for anyone wondering.
Even though the parcel wasn't addressed to me I knew it had to be the study guide because I took one look at the handwriting and went "Wow... that has to be Dan's..." [no offence intended, O Giver of Free Study Notes]

I've also just read the preface and the first paragraph of ULP's "Structure" section and I know that this is going to benefit me. Recommended to all -if my opinion changes as I read more I'll come back and edit- but the way Shinny conveys and what he conveys is top stuff. Thanks to all involved.

Edit: I feel smarter just touching the front cover. It's great.

There's just no pleasing you people! One day I'll be able to hire someone to write the addresses out, and then we'll see who's laughing! I'm going to go and cry myself to sleep now :(

Hey guys,

This is going to sound really cheap, but when are you going to do the free shipping for any study guide period again?

PLEASE BE SOON :D
