  1. hahaha! it looks to me like a door wor. But nvm, do check it out when u go there again ya?
  2. okok.. my ears were itching... I bought mine beginning of last yr (i think so lah), cant rembr exact pricing but was slightly more than $500 for a set with 'abilities' to play 'more games' than i can afford. Additional set of controllers at $100. I just asked my coll who's got lobang in SLS, prices increased drastically recently wor..
  3. congrats! i've read somewhere in the forum that black surfaces are harder to maintain than white, as the scratches are more obvious. Granite can withstand heat better than solid surface top. I couldnt decide myself which to get either. so i let pricing made the decision, white solid surface for me
  4. I haven shifted in yet, wun be able to give u an extensive evaluation of the system. But offhand, apart from the cost (higher than those pulley system), i would have to admit that it is quite heavy to pull down from the ceiling. Gotta get the hang of it when trying to get the system down from the ceiling. I cant say how it feels when loaded with wet laundry. I have a phobia for heights and cannot hold heavily weighted bamboo sticks as well. But i dun think it is a problem with pushing out the system from the service balcony. Came across another vendor (Tames) selling similar system, that system shd be lighter to pull down but i don't recommend becos of the filmsy extendable poles.
  5. yalor, dun use postform lah. I more superficial... dun use simply becos its not shiny shiny looking n older fashion.
  6. :jawdrop: Goodness! So many things to do and even shifting of the meter and SCV even BEFORE the whole purchase is approved?!
  7. yalor.. he just appeared from nowhere.
  8. no worries. Just sharing with u what we experienced. And....U managed to let my hibernating hubby surface! haha!
  9. I can be pretty sure the top coats r really from the ICI tins that i've seen. Otherwise no point for them to leave half used tins in my storerm with the tins labeled with the exact color i picked. But as for the base... i really have no comments abt that. I'm ok so long as the colors turn out fine. If u r really concerned, maybe tell Ah soon ur worries?
  10. Yes, glad my agent is very pro. Very ah beng also. Same leh! i had 2 agent, the ah beng manager + his newbie agent. Both very gd. But the seller agent totally MIA during 2nd viewing and final inspection. I would have cried if he's my agent seriously. Rembr ah, chge lock straight after u take ur keys!
  11. *disclaimer: Nope. he was not w me. Hahaha! i'm watching my tvb show the whole evening. Ur recess area purchase completed liao?
  12. ya. that's wat i tot so too. As long as the final color is painted nicely n evenly and same as the catalogue, i also no energy to compare wat brand they use ba? Afterall, so many materials used in reno, we just have to trust them with the work. Micro-manage very tiring leh. Anyway.. like wat gongkia said, we really did see the ICI tins in my storeroom. Those small tins which there's still leftover paint. The colors i pick r so strong and rarely used, i doubt they can mix cheaper paints till the exact color i wanted lor.
  13. then i think we were too gd to Robin (the wallpaper guy). We took less than an hour to choose! Pinkpetter going gaga liao... Right side looks more classy!
  14. If i didn't recall wrongly was $1800 for the set? Rondy mentioned in his t-blog can bring the hdd to k-box, $1 per song, something like that.
  15. nowadays seller all like tt one ah? Mine also leh.... Seller's wife asked for early completion, made us sign the letter of request together with them. Trying to arrange for any date b4 20th Feb. HDB only confirmed the 2nd appt date exactly 7 days b4 the actual date, straight away inform our agent to let seller know. Handover is on a monday, we only get to inspect a very MESSY flat on sun 6pm. Ridiculous. Still wants us to let him have a spare key after 2nd appt, n grumble to my agent that notice given to him was too short. In the 1st place, it was HIS wife that wanted an early completion, not us! Heng my agent was very firm. No means no. We got our keys peacefully on 2nd appt.
  16. the k-set that rondy had can go k-box n download the latest songs somemore! Sounds very attractive... but price very 'attractive' too.
  17. i didnt use Nippon. I told them i wanted ICI instead becos Nippon doesnt have the colors i wanted. Base i think its Jotun, cos i saw a huge tub of Jotun. But total 3 coats, base = white (most prob is the Jotun) and 2 coats of colored paint. For me its alright, i wouldnt expect them to use Nippon paint for base given the super low price i'm quoted for painting. So long as the final color is even n nicely painted, it doesnt matter to me wat base paint they use. I dun think it is possible for them to use Jotun as one of the color becos diff brands of paint have got very different tones. My final output is nice n exactly the same as the catalogue ...on my smoothly plastered walls.
  18. Then what do u plan to do with that 3 walls in ur kitchen? I'm not in a hurry to shift, still have my mum's place to seek shelter at. But we have fixed to shift end of this mth, no FS date or wat, just a normal date lah. We arent into FS. i rather they slowly do and do a gd job, then to rush and end up w a sloppy one also. Angpow money for honeymoon fund liao leh!
  19. I wonder will there be a day ur guy will go full monty if he doesnt find the right underwear. HAHAH! My hub wears almost every color. i told him he's very flamboyant, bought him purple shirt and converted him to a fan of pink shirts too. I think so far only no green shirt?
  20. not really that small as ur hub say lah. Quite decently sized!
  21. :bow: i'll have ask my hub to go fly kite if he gives me such a stringent list. He jolly well wear watever i buy, else dun ask me to buy!
  22. u shdnt even have told her the add. She stays just a few stops away. Jialat....
  23. reminds me so much of the times i was staying over at sis-in-law's place in aussie. Very relaxing country feel...
  24. hee, i missed this post. What did u show him in my house? Of cos he know lah, he was at my place more often than uncle soon! I cannot find uncle soon i also call jason n bug him. Wii games take ages to 'obtain'. DS games super ez. Can pm u the place to get it. I just got my latest gardening mama (gardening version of cooking mama!)
  25. i tot mosaic comes as whole piece? how come will end up not straight. That's weird. Unless the HDB walls r not straight either.
