sohck 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2009 Starting our shortlisting process this week.: basically we will be asking each ID to bring us for site seeing. Since the prices of most of the ID are pretty much the same (with the exception of Weiken.com), we shall made our selection based on workmanship. So far we have seen the work of one ID. The workmanship of the flat (exactly the same floor plan and orientation) is only so-so: tiles are not lied properly and the carpentry is bad. We have also dropped Strategic - the Project Director is non-pushy, experienced and knowledgeable - in fact we quite like him. We just cannot agree with the designer's fanciful idea. Now that we have more choice that needed, I don't want to ask for an alternative design but instead just focus on the quotes I have on had. Do you guys think I should also consider Ah Soon? I read after all the good reviews about him here and I think we might not be doing ourselves a flavour but we don't at least talk to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sohck 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2009 Took advantage of the 3-day Mother's Day promotion and bought this for $728 yesterday. Usual price is $788. This one will lessen wifey's load on house cleaning, plus double up as Mother Day's gift and her birthday present. The sales person was helpful and knowledgeable. The unit is still being charged since last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
