froggy 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2010 froggy, read ur signature, u got ur aircon with aron is it? ya, finally confirmed with him. Actually I find his price not really that competitive, but i like their attitude and good service, can discuss one. Think will be easy for edmund to coordinate with him, so in the end pick him. Hope I made the right decision. the other aircon contractor came to see the place, suggested a few things which are the same as Sam (Aron's installer, whom my hubby called "woman killer"). After that supposed to give quotation but he like bo hue bo hue - up to now still no hear from him. like that how to give him biz?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggy 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2010 wow.. lucky my gf never see if not my pocket burn again.. hee.. but is it the same as the swarovski crystal downlight on lighting.com ? that one only 99$ leh dunno lei - hope it's something good. bc we just needed to get something. Everything else we want they don't have, so no choice. Wow lighting.com sells this at $95 ah? Heart pain liao, but bo bian, better than nothing. Take this as a bonus - but definitely lesson learnt!

Sam....i din ask their name. but it's a young cute malaysian chap who is very polite rite? shd be the same one then if that's the case...he quite nice. his china colleague was plastering the holes and was not making very nicely cos he thought we doing plastering so he jus covering the hole. once he knows that i not plastering my walls, he took over from his china colleague and make nice nice for me. but same advice to u.... regardless who is installing, even the very gd ones, make sure u r around when they install so that quality can be ensure.

froggy 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2010 i nearly confirm with best tech also, but heng came back see renotalk first. haha everything is fine liao. just a few hiccups nia you are lucky! I was too tempted by the "best price" and "today last day" gimmick, and totally fell for it. blame it on being kiasu lor. Never mind lah, that was my first purchase for the house, after that got smarter liao - do homework in RT first before commiting anything. Since that incident, I realised that many shops will say "today is last day of promo" line - how naive I had been Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since that incident, I realised that many shops will say "today is last day of promo" line - how naive I had been lol, that is common gimmick for sales mah. if not customer will not commit as there is always another day reason not to buy de. i am in sales line so i can totally read and understand all this gimmick. but still i cannot help falling for some of their tactics when shopping for home things.

froggy 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2010 most probably selling this amasco brand gives them more commission. or maybe is really better. haha, that's what I want to find out too. Like kitchen appliances, I find the salesman all very enthusiastic about Brandt, and will try to talk you out from other brands Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
