[Rant] A Shop in SLS ah_khoo Oct 28th, 09, 03:05 PM #1 (permalink)
callin all bros (especially those who're working in SLS),

Is there such rule like buyin bundle (board + chip) with cash, but then one of d sales person said must add another $10 because so called bundle price must at least include purchase of a case and / or another item. i was like wtf? got such thing one meh? supposedly if we buy bundle (board + chip) by cash some shops even give a 2% discount. damn jialat...

難得一身好本領 情關始終闖不過闖不過 柔情蜜意 亂揮刀劍無結果 流水滔滔斬不斷 情絲百結衝不破刀鋒冷 熱情未冷 心底更是難過 無情刀 永不知錯無緣份 祇嘆奈何面對死不會驚怕 離別心悽楚 人生幾許失意 何必偏偏選中我揮刀劍 斷盟約 相識註定成大錯

very common in some kinds of shops.

i encountered 1 myself and i still bought the chip because the value of the item is small and the chip was meant for destructive purposes so it was fine with me

yes. some shops have this rule.
U should ask clearly before u buy.
Anyway, U can walk away.

''To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society.'' — Former President Theodore Roosevelt


''Universities are turning out highly skilled barbarians because we don't provide a framework of values to young people who more and more are searching for it.'' — Steven Mueller, president of Johns Hopkins University

Wah, buy CPU + MB bundle alone must top up cash reminds me of the old days...

Last time was CPU + MB + casing bundle if I rmb correctly, with the first two items really cheap on the pricelists, but when you ask for CPU + MB alone, they say must +$50, so after adding it's about the same as those larger shops' pricelists which genuinely sell CPU + MB alone.

Now 'hidden charges' come in the form of NETS payment!


home: corei7. vistaUltimate64 | work: centrino2. vistaBusiness32 | mobile: e72 + cx300-ii. s60 3.2 | audio: zen + ah-d1001

HOOT DAH! What are you going to buy at SITEX 2009?
