skyspectrum 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2007 We bought from Lightology @ Balestier. I guess the prices of PLC lights are about the same. Those who claimed very much cheaper, be careful cos the casing is not rust proof (not dye-cast). Also the cheapers ones come with lower voltage (less bright). We spent about $1.5k on lights, all from one shop cos can get better discounts. This was done before the 7% GST .... hehehe .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surge 1 Report post Posted July 29, 2007 Thanks to all who replied.Spent the weekend trawling through geylang and balestier area for the lights.In the end after comparison gotDining lights,Kitchen and Bathroom lights from Lumiére. They are having storewide discount of minimum 15% with some items up to 50% off. Same boss and selection as Vlux, lightology, so actually if you mention the Lumiére is having 15% off Vlux & lightogy will be able to as least match. 15% till end of the month(July) only if I am not wrong.All the rest of the lights (PLC and Flourescent tubes) from Extreme Lighting.After comparing LA, DK ,Kosen ..Extreme seems to give the best price.ALL PLC are Osram(tube) +Atco(Aust) ballastAll Flor Tubes are Philips tube and ballast Storage heater, toilet sink and tap from L PhenoFind that their stuff is better quality then the usual mentioned (hoe kee, Lookz etc )Price wise also very reasonable. Look for ben if you visit L Pheno, the price and service he gives is All in all a tiring but productive weekend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A veri patient guy who will go to the extra miles for you...the delivery guy told us he is actually the boss of L Pheno lor Yeah we discovered he is the boss our last visit there. The discount he gives and his staff also different He is really customer oriented. I like this sink alot but the dimensions like pretty big. Although can fit but ben worried that the door may be impeded. There is another sink, our 2nd choice which sure can fit...I thought maybe play safe get the 2nd choice but Ben suggested that he will ask the delivery guy to bring BOTH sinks down and let me try which one I prefer. So in the end he is going to deliver 3 sinks1 display to let me try1 new sink (1st choice)1 new sink (2nd choice)Now thats what i call Service..even my ID also impressed when I told her...

Don't push, just sit there. Try to push abit, all the excuses come out and make me d*mn pek-chek. Sometimes just hate all these argumentative people; why can't they just do it?? So many excuses for what... Think must keep my weight in check - if I am 10 yrs older maybe will kana heart attack already... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For me, it is my business lor. Delay and delay and delay - already affecting my move-in date and I probably have to delay until after 7th month liao.In the end if really late, can I really cut their payment?? But I am not the sort who do that leh.I will only cut someone's payment if they screwed up, eg incur extra costs to me or the end-product not up to standard; but if the person just delay but still do swee swee for me in the end, I duno how to justify to cut payment...
