momo13 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2009 My quotations ranges from 10k to 28k with slight variations in the items, so will be difficult to tell you also the real market rates. Sometimes you have to see the details of the quotations and know where one of them charge more in one area, yet another more in another... sometimes you wonder the quality of the stuff too... really a hard choice... other than price, able to communicate/click is another important reason why I've shortlisted my few so far... oh i see..as i too have relatives in the industry as he is only doing the cornices.. and he advised me to get those packaged ones which is cheaper... ...anyway the prices you mentioned is more or less the estimated sum for a normal 3 room flat bah..shall see how then thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
