Hi All, Thanks to the forum that i learnt more abt ID and i guess is my due to give my ID her good due. Many had been putting praises for Benedict which no doubt is high recommended based on the amount of posting from here. But i willl like to give my appointed ID from EI her very deserved due. ID: ZANN Completion progress: 95% Satisfaction: 99% note there is never 100% Problems encountered: Yes, but ID and myself were very coporative with each other and were able to nego and work out solution. So to me there is little or no problem at all View on ID: Practical, "Designful", willing to listen to customer ideas and comments, willing to work within the region of your ideas and fine tune it, responsible, not pushy, fast to react to situation. In all i enjoy working with Zann though i bugged this Lady with tons of worries and question and their team espicallythe light fitting team, capentary is fun to work with. Workmanship: I will say not bad not much complain. Able to meet my expectations and i am waiting for the final touch up Note: even i ask for no rush and ID to take their own sweet time in everything they do they stilll managed to complete 99% of the job on time and within schdeule. I am impress! If you need some reference when looking for her just say the couple who tell u always not to rush their renovation i think she will know who Something for future hse owners looking for ID, JUST SOME TIPS TO HELP YOU GUYS WORK WELL WITH UR ID (I learnt of their pains as well) 1) Give clear idea what sort of theme or design u want your hse to be 2) try to stay within ur budget with ur design, they are making a living too, there is no free meal in this world 3) check and ask time schdule, does not mean u pay for ur deal ID and their team are your slave. Try to be more accomodating, it will be a very happy working relationship 4) try to take a lead in design and planning ideas cos ID cannot read what is on the hse owner mind. 5) understand these id companies have teams of people working on certain aspects thus please dun rush these groups of people as they handle multiple projects at the same time. In anyway i am not with EI or in thius industry and am a someone who have just a good expereinced with Zann frm EI. -

Hi TS, You got it from the recent HDB ballot is it?
-
so the big question now is .. which model of sony did the thread starter get? come tell us abt ur purchase heheheehehe
-
heheheh hey hey all in in summary is; 1) price ok with buyer 2) what buyer see buyer likes 3) buyer is happy with brand and specs gao tim liao ..... we all spectators can give comments only so Buyer go with ur own judgement and feel, take our comments here with a pinch of salt.
-
very simple Budget - ur pcoket can tahan anot Specs- which one is better Brand - which one u more comfy with Next DO NOT THINK BACK AND SAY HAIYA EARLY I SHOUDL WAIT. Lesson i went thru is once justify reason are made go ahead and buy den enever ever look back. electrical stuff are liek car once u buy it depreciates. never will electrical stuff appreciate. n if u wait u can wait forever cos new temptations will come along.

Sony X Series : Samsung 6-8 Series Comment
wjzkev replied to wjzkev's topic in Electronics & Electricals
Sorry arhh but can i know do u get IT show for 1 whole mth? Mustatfa can open 24hrs for 1 whole month the price of 4999 i do not know there for at least weeks to 1 month. I applogise if i sound harsh but cannot compare pc show to regular shop pricing. If you think the price at not good enuff maybe can try at neighbourhood stall (i doubt serious they can give u a good pricing). On the other hand i can advise dun buy now wait for oct end pc show at changi maybe u can get better discount at the old X and New X Bottom line: If u like it get it, dun wait and compare past pricing cos in the end cos u will regret either why u did not get in teh past or during show.Anyway not only PC show you get 3999 i learnt from another guy he got it at harvey norman warehse sale oso at abt this price. Another place to target is Courts go for their warehse sales, there is other brands other than sony and as i mentioned before sony is brand only technology i still prefer Samsung. Why i mentioned mustafa is because 1) i get a good deal there (personal view) 2) i think is a good place for one a noob like me to view so many brands and compare at least. So i hope to help those in confusion state like me here here -
Sony X Series : Samsung 6-8 Series Comment
wjzkev replied to wjzkev's topic in Electronics & Electricals
Thanks Skim Milk for the reply (tot the thread died) anyway i got the X series (offer is too good to be miss) and i prefer the old x design compare to the upcoming X (Of cos the new x will cos me and arm and leg). if going for samsung i will have choose the 7,8,9 series becuase of the features, of course in terms of colour Samsung seems to be more dynamic but i not used to it. Personally i was targetting at the series 8. Hint> go to mustafa u will get good discount, if u interested in sony i can intro the sales guy to you who can do wonder (ps, i no commision) -

HI, My is a resale 5 rm (dnb) as for quotation my personnal take is it all depend on the things u want to do (to be more specific the more thing and style u want expect to fork out more). I am not being self-fish . scare of being dumb to let people knwo my price but each hse owner have a different concept of what they want ot not want to do. My advise is: a) come out with a plan what u want ur place to be and to look like what sort of feel - this will aloow the ID to quickly visualized what u want and easily both will be in sync and he can better advise u wat is possible wat is not what are the additional cost etc etc and not always yessss owner u have good idea, b) Once idea is out is easier for u to do budget (of course we layman cannot count the exact cost) but from this forum u can range mark the low and high end of your budget c) once this is done, time for the nego and see the things they can do and offer price Of course one have to remember pay x amount of $, u get x amount of work and effort. I am sure being name in this forum EI will not want to tarnish their name which is why inspite of certain incidents some hse owner face i still went to them and found the selected ID sincere and practial (though some of the suggestion disappinted my mrs but end day she realised yeah it is not practical to have certain things) So i seek for ur understanding that i am not going to reveal as my stuff may seems simple (hardly and renovation) but the way i want things to be done and built is the nail to my budget haisssss, but i am happy at the service which the ID comes up now as per mentioned is waiting for things to be brought to life. -

alas after much consideration and filtering, EI was our choosen as well. So far i will say my ID was very practical, given our ideas and expectations and our budget, she was able to advise what is good and not good. Of course every owners want heir hse to be swee and low cost but there is no want cheap want good school of thoughts. so like other house owners who EI handled i hope my case is swee swee and smooth oso. Thanks the forum for all your feedback n experinces in varies aspect as it help me alot. -

Thanks

Thanks all for the reply, worrying things is the prrssure of the glass. yes design do come in the mind but if there is no safety i rather forgo the looks. thanks all once again iw ill speak to 2 other contractors and get a common feedback

Hi Thanks for your reply, i was inform by the during discussion phase it is not advisable to hack the whole wall completly. instead to leave a bit of the wall at the bottom as this is to prevent any chance to "wack" the floor (in the living room tiles, room "parquay" flooring") wherte he claims it may adverse effects on the rest of the tiles or wooden strips. But your idea is pretty good so thanks for the reply once again
-
Hi All, for those who have already done or abt to do it? How did your contractor / id do it for you? Full Height meaning from cieling to ground or not fully touch ground meaning there is a bit of the wall left? also any damages done to ur flooring where they relay part of it again? t.i.a

IMM> I went to City Design (blur blur go in de) and Gplan (more awake) verdict: gplan server by s.k very professional and i am superbly impress by the id ideas and concept, it actually brings out what i wanted for the place to be. end of the day it is the $$ that speaks and i hope (not to offend anyone), 1 degree worth of dollar u get one degree worth of returns if realy given a choice i hope can further nego to get to the value i am looking at as my place have little reno to do except the cost is on the capentary works (with deisgn) and hacking... overall i am impress but i still am searching for for 2 more quotes before i start to finalised.
