katvolution 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 Hi everyone, can anyone advise on where to buy string curtains? I had been to a shop in Plaza Singapura and was quoted $245 for a full length of 1.5M. Sounds pretty expensive to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 think there's a person in SGB selling 3m x 3m string curtains at around $90or you can check out yahoo auctions too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wtg54 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 I think depends on where the strings curtains are from. Was quoted $80 for about 3ft ~ 1m to ~$2xx for the same length. Cheaper one from China, cant wash and the expensive one is imported, can wash. So must see if which one, coz price diff quite alot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applek24 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 i was quoted $120 for 1meter wide , include installation and track. Does any of your quote come with tracks ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 hi applek24, your price is for 3m long ones?that's rather reasonable considering that track and installation is thrown in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katvolution 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 WAH.. it seems to me I got a very expensive quote. I did not ask much details on where the strings come from, except that I note that shop looked kind of classy. But I don't think the price includes installations or tracks. I remembering asking the sales person on how to hang up the curtains. She gave me a rather 'ur so stupid look' and told me that I can either fix tracks or just stick them up the ceiling MYSELF. I guess that just means that I got to find my own tracks and install them myself bah. Btw, I can't get tracks cause the place where I am going to hang my curtains is not in a straight line. Any other suggestions on how to stick it up? To Applek24 : Can you kindly PM me the shop or person that you got your string curtains from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
