[Nigaromia]

CD's for 18,95 in 1991 I don't believe it. They were and still are the price breaker

[Tezzathetool]

[venuecam]

John Deeks doing the voiceovers. You bewdy.

[KingFahtah]

They seem to have the same decore as in 1991 too :)

[venuecam]

Whatever works. It'd have to be one of the only franchise stores in Australia that hasn't changed their approach to marketing in over 30 years. Good on em.

[bryanz127]

[winkz420]

[vinnyd91]

No DVDs?

[JBofBrisbane]

@mubd1234 - did anyone have DVDs back then? I thought Super VHS was the top line at the time.

[LeadedSuper]

@JBofBrisbane Na I think it was just CD's and VHS video's were the best things around in 1991, well there was those huge Laser Disc movies available around that time, but they never really took off. So I guess we just had VHS video tapes until the DVD's came along and replaced the old VHS video format.

Also speaking of JB and their so called cheap $18.99 CD's. Geees that didn't last long at all. As I remember buying heaps od CD's throughout the 90's the the normal price was around $24.99.

[Lachlant1984]

The price of CD's really hasn't changed much at all over the years. I still buy my music on CD, and refuse to download music from online music stores, I refuse to buy digital music that's copy protected.

[ShiterFingers]

This is one of Australia's best stores

[wamouse]

The yellow racks are still the same. ;P I just find that funny.

I went there today... Got some Gnarls Barkley. They are NOT a dance group, imbeciles. :P

[SiSeonDiMaaSiDakSi]

Tell me what were the JB stores as of 1991?

[01DOGG01]

No idea but if you check the 1985 commercial, it says "18 Centreway, East Keilor". So maybe that was the first store?

I live just around the corner, it's still open albeit small comared to other stores.

[pettee1979]

First store was East Keilor, opened in 1974. As of 1991, only Camberwell, Dandenong and Brighton were open. Soon came Elizabeth Street and Heidelberg, before they started moving into shopping centres.

Camberwell and Dandenong now have new stores, so East Keilor and Brighton are the only stores from this time still open.

[KingFahtah]

They had one in parramatta by the early 90s

[loveangeljess85]

yes that was the 1st store. i remember that being the only one!

[mubd1234]
