merryman, i got my mitsubhishi electric sys 2 non inverter for $1669 from gain city. elaine1311, oh, cos my parents also blur blur... so got to ask around. maybe will check with my relative see wat they say lor.

so which aircon brand u looking at??? can check coolserve website or call courts to check the price lor.

ivy, me and my wife doing the painting last weekend cos my friends not free, this weekend will ""tempt" them to come over with promise of free food. hahaha

merryman, guess it depends on luck lor, my colleague brought his aircon from courts, he says 3hrs everything finished, no problem. my aircon installation ard 4hr, from 9.30pm - 1.30pm, somemore i waited for a month before they came to install cos they say saturaday installation need to wait one mth while my friend waited ard 2 weeks nia.

merryman, gain city aircon not de cheapest but i thought expensive a bit but if installation swee swee that i dun mind the extra... but, guess depends on luck which team come n do ur installation. heard frm my colleague who bought his samsung from courts that most of the experience installer left gain city. ivy, painting myself to cut cost lor, cos my contractor quote ard $800 to paint. somemore only painting one color so i thought DIY lor. cos was having some debate with my wifey on the process of än shen", her colleague told her need to move altar in, än shen"than move the rest of the furniture. but my colleague says it's ok as long as u not staying in. BD, our furniture moving in on 22 july tog. with altar, guan yin coming in on 26july, ok will take note of the praying part if we decide to move in later. elaine1311, oh i thought an chuan for newly weds only, eh another question, last time when my wife & i moved in tog. to my parents place, never ah chuan, do we need to do it when we shift to our new hse??? cos we lao fu lao qi liao, already living tog. for ard 5yrs liao. : )

both got pro & cons lor, CO free but need to queue up. inconvience to queue up @ bank everytime u need a CO, cheque need to pay but more convience.

wa the suspense also killing me!!!! agreed with the rest of the forumers, cheque book really de useful, so far sign at least 10 cheques liao, all the hard earned money flowing out..

just some quick updates, [11/7/2009] some feedback on gaincity aircon installer: 2 guys came, 1 guy ard 40plus and another 20+chap, not happy with gain city aircon guys, make a mess of my electricity. they say need to remove trucking my wire in my bedroom to install the aircon piping than ask me get my electric guy to put back trucking. **** piss off. will post some pics tonite when i reach home. lucky when call my contractor can ask their guy to help put swee swee for me he says no problem, he told me gain city got a lot of this type of cases. he also very pissed with gain city aircon installer. painting updates: we decided to paint the whole house white (orchid white to be precise), went to the nippon shop near ABC market to purchase them. rought estimate of the paint need for my 3rm: 2 x 5L of nippon sealer ($29 each) 4 x 5L of nippon paint (orchid white) ($45) we also brought a extendable stick for painting the celling for $5, total damage : $243 on 4 july we applied one layer of sealer on our 2 bedrooms which took us ard 1hrs++, last sat went back to finish the job of painting my 2 bedrooms, one of the bedroom was in blue, my wife and me spent a good 5hrs to paint 3 coat of paint over them. was aching all over when i'm finished. i have one question regarding 'an shen', i'm thinking of inviting guan yin to my place but my altar and furniture will be coming on 22 july but i can only 'an shen' on 26 july, is it ok to 'an shen' after furniture come? or must do it before?

nice to know so many pools fans here. i start supporting them just when they started to decline, i remember my first epl game was liverpool vs man u fa cup final, that time ian rush still ard, robbie fowler was just a youngster. i agreed with rondy some time they play very kelong.

rondy, ignore the rapist.... i remember i try to ballot for farrer park 3rm during the quartly sales b4 but failed.... i even went to look at the surronding. hdb resales price jump a lot this 2-3 years, remember in june 2007 my neighbour was selling his 3rm corner w utility for $170k + cov 10k, now it's selling ard $240 + cov 10k.

congrats on your new home, it quite tough to get below valuation nowadays at good location

ya lor. it's quite a good place to jog.. can't wait for the furniture to come and start moving in.

alamak, ya $1400 is very cheap he was telling me sys 2 non-inverter selling @ $999 only, but i brought from gain city liao so bo bian. merryman, nice deal u got there. rondy, sian wanted to take pic yesterday but no electricity @ my place,whole hse dark dark a bit scary. will try my luck again tonite.

welcome, store room very useful leh, now i'm thinking where to put my stuff like vaccum cleaner and army barang barang... got one id i approach also suggested to create a small study area between the 2 rooms, i think it's where u're store room is situated. my colleague got a panasonic sys 3 non inverter for ard $1400 when Tampines Courts was having sale 2-3 weeks ago, installation wait for 2weeks nia, i got mine from gain city, need to wait one mth for installation, heard from my colleague the team who install for him quite good everything completed in 3 hrs. Maybe u can take a look over there. can check out rough pricing @ coolserve Got a few pointers to take note when getting aircon: 1. wat pipes or armaflex insulation are they using? 2. wat type of gas they using, R22 or R410A, 2016 Sg will pharse out R22
