Celestial 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) Decided to start our very own T-blog to share and keep the gd and bad memories. We were quite lucky in the first and last balloting by getting No. 287 in the Apr Bi-Monthly Sale. But the floors available were relatively low... Nvm hope the inner part can earn some credits. Extremely excited after securing the unit. Here's our floor plan...(which seems bit brain-cracking) : [/ & here's wat you will see in typical impulsive buyer: June Bought a package from The White Collection - Majority of the Furniture (Great Singapore Sale ma... ) July Went to the Home & Decor@Expo, spoken to 3 ID Firms, signed up with Plush Living, hoping for the bestGotten our Keys at 30th, before the hungry brothers come out... August Gotten a proposed floor plan During the exhibition, the ID was quite convincing, told us that our house is fun to 'play' and said that shouldn't be a problem to keep the amount within our budget.. However when the quotation came, it exceeded our budget bout 50%... Of course maybe it had included some extra stuff which we did not requested but lesser off those items still exceeded our budget.. Reviewed 3 times and finalised the items.. Just met up our ID today, waited 20mins before his arrival. As promised, we should be getting a copy of the draft drawings (after waited 7-8working days), floor plan, schedule of the completion date, but in the end saw the drawings in B&W, no finalised floor plan and schedule.. n no copies for our references... When we shown interest in signing the contract we see enthusiasm in the ID.. But after signing, the enthusiasm seems to vanish into thin air.. Anyone experience it before?? Haiz.. one more week before the renovation starts and we have yet to see the finalised draft..

Celestial 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2008 yah lor but that time we thought we bought the console le so rejected the proposal, in the end we see wrongly.. hee.. then when we ask for quotation our ID like 'ai mai ai mai' so we bought our own.. but now still considering whether to do the featured wall or buy those wall decals..

Angel81 1 Report post Posted August 25, 2008 Wah!! Nice big MBR u will be having there! Lovely coffee table and bar stool u bot also. Hmm.. I tink some IDs are like that. Before signing.. promise you the stars and moon and have super good attitude. After signing.. lots of tings cannot and dun realli care. Some even dun wana amend the plans wen clients wana change some stuff, or say that need $$ to do the changes. Hope that ur ID may be juz having a bad day that day, and that he'll be better from now on. Just like what some of the forumers say.. dun pay the full sum until u r satisfied, and muz go for what u wan! After all, u are paying them leh. So u are the boss! hehehehe..
