Our First Home At Cck

2nd last delivery I recieved.

Vornado fan. I had to ask Hopshopgo to purchase for me as Vornado website dun accept Singapore Credit card.

Fan: USD$79

Purchasing admin charge: USD$8

Shipping: USD$70 per fan

Total cost = S$200 (Home DIY is more than $400)

But I need to buy step down transformer for the fan. Cost S$23.50 for 1 transformer.

Wah....I yet to listen to aktimate, hence I'm inclined towards audioengine a2 & a5+.

Which model of Vornado did you bought? Irobot is good, good feedbacks from my friends who are using it. There are cheaper ranges out there, this model got mop floor function.

Seems like we are looking for abstract artworks. Keep me posted!

I got this fan. It was a one time discount and I fast fast order thru Hopshopgo as Vornado website only allow USA credit card.

Now I cant seem to find this model. Think it is old model ba. :dunno:

But I love it! 5 speed! Spore only 3 speed :notti:

I'm waiting for Black Friday by Amazon to hoot Vornado fans as it is a new model with no discount at the moment. I'm targeting 3pcs leh, need to monitor closely.

Exactly, it depends, whether 3 or 5 speeds are subjective, if both model having same rpm and only difference due to speed mode. It is power comsumption distribution that differ each other.

Cost is $3000 MYR. Yes I pay in ringgit. Somemore now the rate is so good for us Sporean.

His name is Mr. Ho. He will bring all the material to your place for u to select n feel. He will also measure and quote u on spot.

After that his guy will call u in 2 weeks time to arrange a timing to install. Installation is fast n workmanship is good.

I not sure if that is the norm nowadays but he uses plastic hook for the curtain and I highly recommend that as it wont rust, easily removable and can be adjusted! Plus he give me a few to keep spare. Nice guy.

His contact: 97916035. Maybe mention Kim from CCK Sunshine recommend.

kim76 thank you so much for sharing. I really appreciate it especially for clueless first time home owners like me. In the end I went with window-cool like you did and got

solar film for master bedroom and study,

Blinds for 2 bedrooms also big windows

For a total of $2k. Should be ok lah hor?

Not all items will be discounted heavily, also if yes, chances will be out of stock too fast than you would imagined.

Be prepared to wait for your items because that period is peak due to thanksgiving day coming up, thats what Black Friday is for. I did encountered doubled waiting duration for my items during Black Friday.

Buy if it is cheap enough & if you need it. Blu-rays are so cheap during that period that one would imagined!

Cool, another tip, try to play around with different items in each checkout, take notice of their shipping charges.

You may be surprised to know that it is cheaper to checkout your stuffs more than in 1 lump mode. Always checkout them in similar category.

You can avoid frustration packaging by Amazon which they are famous of.

Most likely will be using 3rd party courier. Most of the stuff i want from amazon do not ship to spore
