Now Australia’s Hottest Site for Tanning Bed Info!

It appears that the website is a big hit in Australia. I have no idea why, since we don’t advertise anywhere, but the more the merrier, so glad you stopped in!

Ok, I will resist the urge to say “G’Day” and “Lets put some shrimp on the Bar-B!”, since I know Aussie’s don’t call them shrimp or talk that way, but to get to the point: I have been getting several email from Australia, and it brings up some interesting challenges. I have no idea what brands of beds are common there, if they are made locally or imported from Europe, etc. Also, I speak many dialects of English, including US, UK, Western Europe, some Eastern Europe and even some Spanglish, but Aussie English is rather different (The last email asked about a broken tanning bed “globe”. I have no idea what that is.). I may have to ask for a description, simply because we often use different words for the same thing.

To better help you, you MUST be sure to READ THE LABEL on the bed, including year, manufacturer, brand, model, etc. and include this in the email. I will do what I can to learn what models are sold in Australia, as well as learn the electrical (120V/60hz, same as US, I believe.) and other facts needed to help. I do know that Aussie’s make some great wine, (Yellow Tail has several that I particularly enjoy) but that is about the extent of my knowledge regarding Australian products at this point.

Keep them coming, please be patient when I don’t understand or are lost about a “new” brand of bed, and ALWAYS leave your return email. I will do everything I can, and always return your email if you include a return address.

Thanks to all our new Aussie friends, and I hope you find some useful information here!

Dennis
