GD is a business with partners in Australia, the USA and Italy. Ownership of the business is in the hands of the shareholders, who are actively involved in the management of the business. This gives better control over the business and naturally better service to you. Lowest prices on all vinyl records is just the beginning.

Our Advantage

How we operate ?

The fundamental idea behind e-business and online businesses in general, is the cost saving that can be made by engaging resources only when needed. For example, we do not employ 9-5 sales people or expensive offices. We run all our stock and orders through a paid warehouse management system, whereby once a day we print, label and deliver products to the Australian Post Network. The products then arrive to your door within a few days and you never have to worry about travelling to record shops, standing while sampling records or putting up with any other inconveniences on the way.

By using a warehouse system, rather than a shop, and employing computers rather than sales people (that idle away), we save on costs. The people employed at 3345.com.au spend most of their time with building supplier contacts and negotiating better transportation arrangements.

The benefit is naturally passed on to you, which makes us so competitive against both physical stores and other online competitors.

Serving you reliably:

To ensure that your online experience is the best it can be, we take great care in all the components that go into a high quality web site, including ease of use, navigability and online help.

Of-course, no website can be successful without the right hardware.

To deliver full effect, 3345.com.au is run on a dedicated Professional Dual-Xeon Server running the latest Linux Enterprise system for maximum hardware and software stability.

Within our intranet, we undertake daily incremental backups on Sun/Solaris networked machines, as well as scheduled full backups on a weekly basis.

All faults and or changes undergone on the web site are logged in the What’s New section which you find on the right hand side. Keeping you informed is as important to us as it is to you. Communication is the greatest tool for a trustworthy business relationship.

All in all, we hope you enjoy the experience.

3345 Statement:

Whatever we do, we endeavor to do well.
