Reasonable Quote ?

[pinkpetter 0]

Lobangking.. you just joined today and start leaving msgs like this (which look almost the same) all over the forum without really reading some of the posts... a bit fishy right?

How would we know that guy in the picture is not you? for someone who copy and pastes his posts around like that... I say you are the fishy one.

and you seem to be digging up posts to post on also.

haha kkk i understand your concern. this is because once after i've gotton my house done, i suggested to the contractor saying i will help him to post online if anyone wants to do, i will recommand, in fact i intend to leave a few posts and to pass the contact around so that if anyone in the future wants can have the contact easily. cause i wont be logging in for renov a long time from now. just helping along, is ok if you guys find it fishy. i just want to SHARE a good house done by a good contractor with the rest. well anyway if interested get another quotation, you all also nothing to lose. if you guys still think i am a fraud person trying to scam you all here. just ignore my post. once again sharing is part of my lobang life. btw, i'm famous in computer hardware zone forum. that's about it.

P.S. add me msn: cord_des@hotmail.com if you wan to

Can advise if this is too high?

It depend if the items he use are belong to the high end quality. If not its a bit ex. U want another quotation from another contractor? Can recommend u a good B4 n after sale service contractor. Price reasonable and will break down the price on what u pay for. Moreover, she will bring u to buy the tiles from the shop n u pay there (she can recommend or u can choose the shop urself if u like other tiles shop design). So there is a lot shopping by urself n her as she only give u on the ur hse design whether it suit the color not, as to cut the middle man cost.

Wow, that is very expensive for a 3A resale flat. I guess you kena chop already. May I know the quotation is from which ID firm? and have you try out other ID firm? I can give you my ID contact (very reasonable price if you see my reply prior to this). I would advise you to buy your own kitchen hood and hobs, basin, wc, air conditioner etc.
