But are you able to do by installment? like those 0% installment from xx credit card.

and also i think they may only give 1 year warranty? rather than some big mart

offer 3-5 years.

Yup, you can definitely save more if you are buying most of your household appliances from the neighbourhood stores. Stuffs like fridges, washing machine and dryer, and even aircon units can be purchase there at lower prices. Think you can save up to a grand with negotiations, and if you are buying a handful of items. The trick is to buy in bulk and not single piece. Like I've purchased my fridge, washer, dryer and aircon units from them. Managed to save up quite a fair bit.

I believe that warranty wise is the same for all departmental stores and those neighbourhood stores. You can also purchase extended warranty if you want to. So i will only go for neighourhood stores for appliances, bcos price is always much better than the big stores.

I purchased it at Everjoint and they provide installation and coverage everything for me. Been 2 years and everything is still working well.

I don't think you need to find those big stores to get better price and warranty.

Cheers

i tried Best Denki, Gain City (lousy service) and Giant... all have different prices due to different configurations... hard to compare.

Buy frm Neighbourhood shops is cheaper but do not have warranty for installtion and aircon for so long period. I bought LG aircon frm Gaincity and got 5 years warranty for everything. So you no need to worry about those piping and aircon in 5 yrs time. But from my experience, better dun buy LG aircon, it really gives a lot of problem...
