emobebe 1 Report post Posted April 14, 2011 anyone have contact for a lower cost? Looking for Blumotion 971a, pls pm me if you have any lobang. Thanks. Hi, You need to find those BLUM certified dealer but I don't know how much cheaper it is. I am looking to buy a few hinges from them but I haven't do so because waiting to confirm my Contractor ID's quotation after his on site measurement. Not sure if group buy will be slightly cheaper??? LOL I read some comments from other forumer that you need to know exact size of the hinges (confirm with your carpenter) before you buy else you can't change after you buy. Cheers:) Emobebe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was told that they are selling at direct factory price and they are also a wholesale distributor. so I guess buying directly from them is the cheapest method..

navik 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2011 Not sure if there is any increase in price, but from the 2010 Blum pricelist, 1 set of Blum hinge and Blumotion damper cost less than $5 after GST. And for normal cabinet doors, 1 Blumotion damper per door is actually enough to prevent the door from slamming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And for normal cabinet doors, 1 Blumotion damper per door is actually enough to prevent the door from slamming.understand from my ID that blum price is less that $5 after GST is because the quality of blum came from china..as for samsung IREX, it's from korea and it's selling at a better pricing from blum. my ID gave me free i've seen both display of blum and samsung IREX at my ID showroom, when i close the door under blum hinge, felt so bulky for the cabinet. as for samsung IREX, it looks more normal for usage. my hubby even went to measure the space use for both hinges and blum takes up more space than samsung IREX, cos samsung IREX looks more slim and i can put place bigger stuffs like my pots and pans easily into the cabinet. housewives will know what im trying to say..

nismosunny 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2011 (edited) Went to Excel to check out their price.They can offer 20% discount if you purchase more than $50.Per damper + hinge cost $5.If you purchase 10pc which cost $50, afer discount will be $40, which means per damper hinge cost $4.Is it a good deal than blum? I have not check blum price yet. Edited June 19, 2011 by nismosunny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
