  1. was told that the stock will come in again in another 10 or more days.. gosh
  2. went to Mustafa last nite.. 100w n 230w Newstar all out of stock.. where else to get?? i need abt 7 pieces of 230W... lol
  3. ya.. i enquired to the CS if the items are under free shipping.. i ordered 2 units in 2 separate shipments.. both the CS waived the shipping cost...
  4. Recently, i decided to engage a renovation contractor, Uni Craft Design Studio, to do my renovation after being recommended. Didnt wanna go to more reputatable ID firms coz i know what i wanted and sketched out the design. Story cut short; Quotation signed, 50% down payment made, schedule and invoice delayed but obtained later. Start of nightmare began when actual demolishing work took too long and i went to the place during lunch time and to my dismay, only one work is seen removing all existing carpentry. I called the contractor and he promised that he will still be on time. week one had passed, progress minimal, called contractor, promised he look into it. week two had passed, painted only 2 walls and demolished 60% of the existing carpentry work. Demolished items not cleared. week three, no progress. Decided to terminate the contract due to progress. unable to get the contractor, sms and calls goes unanswered...nightmare begins. 1. went to the registered company address, found that they are no longer located at the site. 2. went to the company owner home address, managed to get the contract terminated on the spot, excuses given, unable to recover the money, asked for 10 days grace to return the deposit.. Alarm bells ringing. According to the biz owner, the partner had scammed 4 other house owners... sigh... Trying to recover part of the deposit now by all means now. Hopefully can recoup back. Lesson learnt; 1. Visit the contractor's company site to ensure that it is as stated as in the ROC 2. Insist on getting an invoice immediately, if possible, sign at the company location. 3. Go for reputable contractors/ID even though they maybe slightly more expensive. It is not worth the hassle and stress. It is just my bad luck to meet this contractor. Now hv to look for another contractor to clear up the mess and blow my renovation budget by 50%... If anyone had the same experience and managed to recoup the deposit, pls advise. Thanks.

  7. mine version.. chop chop kali pop.. lol Hi, Currently, i have 5 items on my cart. I would like to check if these items qualify under the Amazon Global for free shipping to Singapore? This is because I still see the shipping price of USD$117.38 being reflected at the tabulation estimated order total. Pls kindly advise. Thanks.
  8. Ongcs: wat do you meant by pulling a fast one? mind sharing so that we wun repeat the steps? lol for me, i kiasi.. i double check with the CSO if i do not see the shipping direct to singapore or the shipping rates are being included.. use the email to verify before committing the order.. the savings on shipping alone is alot leh...
  9. 50150 is 22 pounds???? i order 1 x 50150, 1 x Honeywell Compact Air Purifier with Permanent HEPA Filter, HHT-011, 2 x Giant wall decal.. free shipping to sg.. the CSO waived the shipping. I check wif the CSO before buying and got the email to go ahead and they will waive the shipping. Indeed they did so and now my items are on their way to SG. Now i'm checking with them on buying 2 x 50150 and 1 x Kidde KN-COSM-B Battery-Operated Combination Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Alarm with Talking Alarm becoz it mentioned that some items cant be shipped to singapore.
  10. 24-70 is heavy.. takes some time getting used to the weight.. if travelling and i hv to lug it all day, i wun bring that.. i'll take along D90 wif battery pack, 11-16 F2.8, 35mm F1.8 or 50mm F1.8 or F1.4, 18-105mm for day shoot, tripod wise, depends on whether to bring along a gorillapod or mini-tripod (those that require a ballhead) and a S90 compact as backup... tt is it.. bring too many lens, u wun get to use all in the end, carry extra weight only.. might as well save the weight for shopping instead.. i'll try to go as light as possible...
  11. the can idea is nice... the nail polish method is probably good for thin walled bottles.. Ab vodka glass thickness is much thicker and takes more time n effort to do it... futhermore, this method does not give an even cut due to the way the twine is wrapped ard the bottle.
