thedottyness 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2012 Earlier I mentioned looking for sofa up-hostelry. I tried my luck to look for that shop who help me customised my sofa previously. It's located at Bedok Industrial area, the shop is no longer there but but but the sofa maker is still there!! Went in talk to the small boss, choose the fabric and discuss on the modification of the sofa.As you can see from the photo, the body of the sofa is made of steel, it is necessary due to the 2.75m length. But now this is giving us problem. (Can't fit the life and cant go up the stair).Simple Solution... Saw into half and welded it back using nuts upon delivery. Yippy!!!! This is the fabric chosencan share where is this place? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jshome 1 Report post Posted April 25, 2012 Green DayTash for destruction, tash for sale and tash for donation. As moving out date is drawing nearer, more and more stuffs need to clear their way.Thanks to LLChing for the suggestion, I'm bring some appliances to Ca$h Converter to get some $$ back. Most items I have never used before, e.g. juicer, food processor etc. All these are given to me as gift during our house warming many years ago and it has been sitting in the storeroom.2 very huge bags of clothes, going to salvation army. I cleared almost 50% of our clothing, so I can buy new clothes I have tonnes of confidential documents, I think easier about 80kg worth of paper. I called up a few recycling company for help, one says too busy, another too expensive. I was thinking if I sell to garang kuni, I still get some $$ back!!!! Instead I will only be getting a certificate of destruction.I am also recycling the old aircon unit in our new house too.Feel happy for doing something to the environment!

LLChing 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2012 With cash converter, you should make a list of how low a price you are willing to let go for your new stuff, individually. Otherwise, they'll give you a low price and see your reaction. I've seen 1 person trying to sell his golf club and they offer $150 for it and he back out. Then they offer $180 but he's still unwilling to sell. No sale. They love new electrical stuff. If you have lots of stuff, can arrange for their staff to go to your place to look see. Can't remember the actual procedure. Saw their brochure once on this service. Go during weekday, preferably afternoon. Have to wait quite long during weekends. Get a queue number 1st. If queue too long, can run errands 1st then come back - like see doctor.Fruitful selling!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
