kim76 18 Report post Posted May 8, 2012 I'm just curious, where do you guys buy from in Amazon? Any particular seller to look out for? Any tips to cut cost?Hi,Search for Kraus sink in Amazon and buy from Amazon. I believe only amazon ship to Singapore.For example,http://www.amazon.com/Kraus-KBU14-30-Inch-Undermount-Stainless/dp/B003U26QZS/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen-bath&srs=2595020011&ie=UTF8&qid=1336464813&sr=1-1Just add to cart, key in your Singapore address and the shipping price will come out at the last page before you place your order.I used Amazon direct shipping as it is not too expensive. I believe Vpost or Hopshopgo may be more ex as the volume size is pretty large...Enjoy! :yamseng: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lyefam 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2012 I'm just curious, where do you guys buy from in Amazon? Any particular seller to look out for? Any tips to cut cost?My buying decision was prompted by Kim76's delightful purchase from Amazon in his earlier post.Since I needed a sink I took the convenient way to buy online and went straight to Kraus. There were other brands that Amazon recommended. But I went ahead with Kraus.There were much cheaper sinks in the market as other forumers have posted with their purchases. But the quality also differ very much. For those in the know, they can identify the quality of the Kraus, Elkay, Franke, local ones etc....Tips to cut cost??I'm sure I got it at a lower US$/S$ exchange rate for my sink as compared with Kim76's purchase. And I'm almost certain that Yokechye got it at a lower price in S$ than Kim76 as both bought the 23" sink. Now the S$ rate is around $1.24 per US$ as compared to my purchase at $1.27 per US$.The price at Amazon is fixed unless you buy in bulk in which the freight cost per unit decreases.H Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lyefam 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2012 The 23" square sink Kim76 bought was US$329.95 compared with Yokechye's 23" round sink of US$169.95. Don't know why the square type is so much more expensive than the round type.But I bought the 32" square at US$369.95 which cost US$40 more for additional 9" than a 23" square. Be warn that you may need to allocate at least 870 to 900mm length of sink cabinet. My sink cabinet was 900mm long.I didn't pay anything more than the quoted price plus the additional handling and shipping costs and 7% GST.My package was sent via DHL. Just sign upon receipt of the sink and wait for your credit card statement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
