Onihcsom 3 Report post Posted June 2, 2014 Basins for the WashroomsMy SGD35 basin bought locally. It is really small due to orientation of the washroom.Cost so low as it is left over from a project (according to the shop)I deemed it as a value buy, how far wrong can one gets when most are also selling white porcelain? Sink from Taobao. Seem like off the shelf already. Cost RMB335Just wondering how "TOTO" is it? So my 2 sinks cost only approx. SGD105 excluding shipping and GST.What can I say when SGD105 may not even get half a sink in some shops locally. Hi oceaneleven,Can share tb link for wash basin?Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petetherock 13 Report post Posted June 2, 2014 You have 1400mm in your cabinet for a TV?IMO, you may want to plan for a bigger TV depending on your interests... and buy the biggest and best TV you can afford. They last for many years and you won't want buyer's remorse.Also put twice as many wall sockets as you think you will need. Trust me, you will use all of them My Carpentry and 3D Drawing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does buying using DBS credit card follows this rate? If yes, I personally think its not that bad...Also, whats the difference between buying with NETS and with singapore credit card? Is it only the 3% surcharge?Thanks~~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Post #87 I think.Buying is easy, meeting the 1 cubic meter to maximize the freight cost is a little tough.Swivel Mirror Link posted.I use a transformer for the Sangean radio, the price of inconvenience when buying electronics from the States.Still I deem it a pretty good deal. The radio built is solid, feel heavy and sound is crisp.I am impress by the volume the radio churns out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
