atlantis2267 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) Will check with seller later this evening on the 5120. Value of a 'price' is relative to so many factors; so each of us can make a decision to go/no-go on the indicative price (and price when locked down). I was looking at how Korean won currency is performing relative to SGD -- and I just loved google (link below). You can use the zoom buttons to go back to history --- so supersmart people would have bought the lock (and probably a thousand other things) in early part of 2009 where it is so low - but then we can't be that supersmart . So we make do with the current situation. Google Finance Korean Won against SGD Edited January 18, 2010 by atlantis2267 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks. The current seller's price for SHS-5120 is $559;I got mine in Oct last year with the old price (I think you did a google search directly instead of within eBAY, hence you see expired listing with the old price). The negotiated price is 8% off current listing (as of Jan 18 - within 2 weeks); I don't think it is fair to ask a seller to hold a price too far out into the future if Korean Won is rising.

atlantis2267 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2010 may i know why you recommend installing the door closer? is it because if the door slam too many times might spoil the digital lock? One of the "benefits" for digital door lock is that it autolocks when the door closes. It makes sense then to have the door closer to close the door for you when you leave the house, so all you have to do is to walk out . For my place, in east , high story, facing seaside, it is very very windy this time of the year. It's not just the lock I worry about, but my whole HDB door hinge is slight dislocated from the various times the door slams. This is my real reason though the first one makes perfect sense to complement the functions of the digital door lock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
