ene1010.tan 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) This is frustrating.. We bought our LED TV last Sun from Bxxx, they claimed its the First 10 at $1388 under CASH IS KING promotion BUT today, I saw the ad from them at $1298 for First 10..for the same CASH IS KING promotion In less than a week, their price promotion changed. I felt cheated in some way .. thinking i have the great deal. My TV is not delivered yet till next week. Do you think it will be unreasonable to ask them for a rebate and let me pay for $1289 instead? (-ve is i paid using credit card) Edited August 6, 2010 by ene1010.tan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can try, but it may be futile. I guess the prices for electronics will keep depreciating over time so you would expect lower prices (albeit not that quickly) as time goes by. That's why i always use stores like Gain City/Audio House/Mega Discount store that have lowerst price garantees. I've managed to claim back a few hundred bucks difference on my TV when i spotted another place selling cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicenzo70 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2010 Next time check out the prices of electronic items from HDB shops eg Everjoint, Goh ah Bee etc For those looking to buy LED Tvs, their prices are at premium as youre paying for technology clawback costs. And their specs arent that great either. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
