Myap76 1 Report post Posted July 6, 2013 Have bought more things during the week:TV console: Wanted to buy the Pinot series from journey east but the price is too steep, even after the 20% discount... So look around the shop and finally settled for this insteadAfter discount is less than 1.2k for a 2m console... The bottom part is extendable, so can go up to 2.3m I guess, depend on the design we want... The lady even recommend to buy the standing shelf that can blend with this console but too bad, my pocket is empty although my heart is full... Also, don't want my brick wall to be covered... HeheAlso, my friend brought me to light craft and I bought these lights for my toilet and service yardAlso, the cage light from taobao has arrivedHappy like dinosaur!Hi,Mind to share the link from TB? Plan to get lighting from TB too. Many member from RT get from TB and seem everyone said the quality was good. TIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MHB 3 Report post Posted July 7, 2013 I also wanted to comment on the good after sale service from Asia Excel. I bought a grohe euphoria rain-shower set back in march (very impulse buy, very regret now) and the set was delivered 2 weeks ago... I was not at the site when the package was delivered and the tiler received it on my behalf... I also forgot about it and didn't check the package. A few days ago, out of curiosity, I opened up the package and to my horror, the shower head delivered is not the correct one. I remembered the sales person told me that the rainshower should be chrome finish but the one I received is exactly similar to the one on display in their show room... I quickly called them up, although more than 1 week later, they admit their mistake and willing to exchange the correct head for me without much hassle... Phew...As for the items I ordered from Insani, I am still waiting for them to be delivered... According to the customer service guy I am corresponding, the rainshower icon is not available and would only be in stock on 17/7, then all the items will be shipped together...So he proposed 2 solutions:1. Cancel this item and he will send the other items2. Part delivery and pay another eur50So in the end, I decided to wait for all the parts since I spent a lot of my time mix and match the items to fit the 5KG shipping requirement... Also, the rainshower icon is really cheap as compared locally even with shipping included...For those who are interested to buy from insani, be prepare to wait even if the items are "in stock, immediately available" so must really check the stock availability with the customer service before making purchase, especially, for those in a hurry to get the items.... The response from the customer service personnel is quite prompt but must use the form to make enquiry instead through email if you need a fast response from them...Sorry for the long post...

MHB 3 Report post Posted July 13, 2013 Finally, my renovation has gathered pace again. There was a slightly delay due to find the right electrician for the house... Wanted to run black PVC pipe across the living room, kitchen and common toilet but it seems to be very difficult to do so...Today jiawei bought a color palette for us to choose the paint color... Gotten sail white (according to jiawei, not off white but it has a tinge of creamy favor) for my mum room and study room ( wifey want the study room to be bright)Then for MBR, green gates to match the laminate of our wardrobe with the center wall to be beige colorAs for the living room, the wall opposite the red brick wall will be blue with the other walls be sail white... We have chosen liberty blue ( because of the name)... I wanted something darker tho but jiawei warned that it might clash with the brick wall, so go for a color that is milder...

MHB 3 Report post Posted July 13, 2013 Then after that, went to yontat to get the door... The bottom part of the current main door has chipped off (a result if not checking thoroughly when buying the flat)... Haiz, so no choice but to replace it as it might scratch my tiles in the long run... So wifey wanted black and gotten a black veneer doorCloser look...Then the bedroom doors are simple classic doors without groovesCloser look Then my wifey wanted a digital lock as she does not want to bring keys out... She has shortlisted the Yale lock... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
