    Cheap Carpet

    You can also consider Lush, OM, Objet as well as they also carry rugs. I got mine at $199 (original was $400+) from the Objet showroom moving out sale. Think the sales (50% off) are over though for Lush and Objet.
  3. Hi Ripples, nice green rug and green throw. Can check with you where you got them? I'm thinking of a similar green rug for my living room. Saw something at Ikea but out of stock. I would have been a calypso sofa owner if my living room is bigger but just have to make do with a std 3-seater.
  4. I did. They apologized and said they sent me the wrong chair. They sent me the white aligator chair instead of the silver aligator chair that I ordered as they had both types in the same container. But I will very likely request for another exchange because the 2 of the 4 chairs' stainless steel legs are scratched (made by cutter) and 1 of the silver PVC coating wasn't applied well as there is still air bubble trapped underneath it. I think perhaps I may have over reacted as it could genuinely be a case of wrong delivery instead of being ripped off by Winter. Can't help being wary after reading horror stories from other forumers about Red Apple/Winter.
  5. Hello, hope the problems don't continue anymore. I too faced so many challenges as well. Issues with my ID: who anyhow change my bedside table, altar dimensions and tv feature wall height, bay window cushions, study table. At last they are almost all over, just the bay window cushions left for them to change to the correct dimensions. Issues with the furniture guys: sent me the incorrect crappy dining chairs (Winter International) and scratched arch lamp (The White). Do be firm with these people and reject accepting the goods or full payment if the goods do not match the description of what you have purchased. If you'd already made full payment online, get your credit card bank to file a descrepancy report and claim back the money, say you did not receive the goods purchased online (it can be done). Don't let your kindness be taken as weakness by these unscrupulous deceptive merchants. I almost got the same LA40B530 Samsung tv as you. The shops told you no more stock?? Hmm Audiohouse still have plenty of stock ley. I got the LA40B550 after much consideration. Price difference is just $100 more and comes with a Robinsons $100 voucher, so it evens out. May as well get the better one. Ok lah, good luck with the rest of your furniture due for delivery.
  6. Did you go to the Objet warehouse sale at their Peminpin showroom? Sale is on till 16 Aug I think. There is also another warehouse sale for household items at San Seng, 31 Jul to 9 Aug 10am to 6pm. No. 3 Second Chin Bee Road. Tel 6265 9090 Sale items include towels & bedlinen series stainless steel table kitchen pdts Non-stick & enamel pdts plastic & melamine pdts glass & porcelain pdts electrical pdts Maybe can call and ask what are the brands they have b4 u decide to travel all the way there.
  7. I guess just as the newspapers have written, all these could be caused by the pent up demand from buyers/investors who have cash on hand. They had previously missed the opportunity back in 2006- 2007 boom. So now they are back with a vengeance. Just grab whatever is out there first then see how. Plus buyers tend to link the property market to the stock market. With STI now breaking above 2,500 pts, I suppose everyone sees it as a V shape recovery and rush in.
  8. Looks good but too loud though if you put it on all the walls. Maybe just one small wall? I'm not sure you will enjoy looking at the same wallpaper for the next 3 years. The colours give the viewer an immediate "Wow" effect but you and Rachel are the ones living in the house, so your comfort and liking are most important.
  9. I guess wallpaper is still the easiest to do? Find a retro theme wallpaper and paste on the wall? Those with circular kind of patterns yah?
