Bro, this solution is good stuff... i tried it..works well..make your ac cooler the instantly... SG is selling it very expensive. I purchased in Msia, each can cost approx. RM13.99, when they have sales.... -
if you got a slightly higher budget, you might want to try WMF or Henckels knives on Amazon.com.... I got a 7 pcs Henckels knives set (Made in Germany), for approx S$200.00 includes shipping. In Singapore here, selling at least S$600.00 for the same set.

Picture is hard to judge. When I showed my wife the black colour EM gents watch, she says ok only. Its only when the real thing arrive and she felt the watch by hand, she told me its nice. The ceramica ladies version should be of a smaller diameter but more high end and also got luminous hands. Maybe the strap is ugly but we got the option to change to leather or even stainless steel. I should have chosen the stainless steel version as it is of a unique colour. Anytime my wife gets bored of the stainless steel, i can change to leather or vice versa, instead of getting the poly strap version. I dont know how much a stainless steel strap would cost me in SG as Amazon dont sell the spares. Now that I saw the white colour ceramica....looks nicer but only worry, it will turn yellowish with time....and gets dirty easier... -

I am not a bargain hunter...just happens to see see look look and discover alot of items in Sg are overpriced... I bought oakleys , columbia 3 in 1 jackets , (these are really cheap...at least 30 percent off as what u see in SG)... and recently, some of the items you listed in the Good Deals to share FB account... Now waiting for the whole lot to come... My wife scolded me for spending so much money. I told her its a home improvement program in which the items are purchased to make the house looks neater... Once she saw the pictures of the items, she agreeds with me. When she saw my EM watch, she says lagi nicer...that why I purchased the EM ceramica version for her. -

Bro, The leather strap, no choice. HAve to go to Bencoolen to change. But do note that, for original EM watches / strap, the buckle on the leather strap bears the EM logo. So if I would to go Bencoolen to change to a leather strap, I would have to forgo the logo as its a replica leather strap (same or even better quality, but without the logo). Another option - go malaysia to change the strap...should be comparable or cheaper? I will update shortly... Another kang tao for you... WMF / Henckels knives...very cheap in amazon...Just before I move in, I have a 8 pcs Henckels knife set with knive bloc (made in Germany but i cannot remember the model), selling for USD 600 plus, but I got it at USD 170... add USD 20 to ship direct to Sg.. That deal even more power.... -

Thanks for your advice... I used to frequent Bencoolen last time for my watch purchases (bought some seikos) there.... They give good discounts..i do agree. Its only when i was looking for a couple watch, that i try amazon to see if i got such luck...this is due to the couple watch that I am interested in, costs S$800 for one pair.... HEng heng I saw the EM watch...then i made my purchase. For me, less than S$300 per watch, still ok to buy online...Esp when compared to the pricing in Singapore, this EM watch give me approx. 40% discount. The ladies version, I save approx. 70% discount and its more high end than the men's version. So this is still considered as a worthy deal... -

yes...good price. when i took notice of it and add to wish list, it was USD 117....then was considering for one to one and half weeks before i whacked it when i whacked it, there were 3 pcs in stocks only when i proceed to pay, then next day, i saw it shoot up to USD 180 Direct shipping to SG...pay another USD 19.00 this watch cost approx 290 S$ in SG I think the brown colour AX can buy liao i been monitoring it for 3 whole weeks, it flunculate between 1% around USD 149.90.... not dropping... But chances of it increasing are higher than dropping... Especially when pple starts to purchase and veolia....here come the price increase. i got another good deal coming..... the ladies version... but comes in ceramica poly rubber strap.. this one should be more high end than the man's version. But I planned to change it to leather strap... and give my wife THis watch is discounted heavily... i got it at USD 104...now increased prices already. can consider this for your wife... this is heavily discounted... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005JT2Q2W/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 -

Hello Kim, I got the black colour EM watch just last week through Amazon. The price was like USD 117.00 + USD 19.00 shipping charges. I believe they are selling at USD 180 now..? The brown colour looks classic....but i went for the black colour as its cheaper.. -
Kitchen & Bathroom Items...buy From Where?
herbalteh replied to pda_lover's topic in Kitchen & Bathroom
If you dont mind, u can try Marcus from Lite Fusion. I have quite a few pleasant buying experiences from him. Not because I am a regular customer but its based on his reasonable selling price and excellent aftersales service that I have gone back to him again... Tell him the CCK couple recommends and he will know... -
Hi Cyril1986, You can try Lite Fusion along upp serangoon road. Look for Marcus, I have patronized him for my lighting needs, toilet fixtures and accessories 4 times already. You can search and read about my reviews on his product pricing and his excellent aftersales service. If you are going there, just tell him the CCK couple recommends you and he will give you good pricing. If you encounter cheaper pricing elsewhere, you can ask him to match it, if he can meet it, he will do so, else, he will ask you to buy directly from other pple. I just visited him today and have purchased shower and mixer set from him. Discovered that he have quite a wider range of LED lights for sales. YOu can drop by his showroom if interested. No obligations, just sharing the good buying experiences and aftersales service that I got from him all these while.

i bought one set of dining lights, one squarish industrial sink (Monic), 2 bathroom taps, one basin, one WC, one mirror, one wash basin with cabinet, one set of foyer lights..consider reasonable as the big items are WC, wash basin with cabinets, squrish industrial sink already cost around 1.3k already
-
u can buy the lights from Marcus and ask your contractor to install for you, provided that you asked your contractor to do the electrical works for you. my ID did the electrical works for me, so i just bought the lights myself and ask my id to do the installation thru his electrician however, if u never ask ur ID or contractor to do the electrical works, u can ask Marcus for recommendation. Marcus's aftersales service is tip top...his prices are able to match what you can find outside if u are buying from Marcus, tell him the CCK couple recommended you...he would be able to give you competitive pricing ...
