    OMG, i am having such a big headache now. I have shortlisted 4 quotations, and i am having a hard time trying to decide who to award to, especially when the costing is more or less the same (+- $2k window) based on a set of more or less same specifications.

    Thanks for the info... bro.

    OMG... greg, looking thru the items that you purchased, that's quite a number of them. How much did u pay for the shipment via Peeka in total?
  4. MonsterBeng

    hey oldskool, have you got a matching old phone yet? If not, can consider this one: Available from: http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a220m.1000858.1000725.389.nd73zs&id=26410184635&user_id=1708407691&is_b=1&cat_id=50932015&q=&rn=b20dd509f8c8db883e5d4e8bc4ea9843

    Tiring weekend... arranged to meet up with some of the IDs and contractors at my unit on Saturday and Sunday, and my brain is fully drained by now. Too much information to process and think about. Luckily I am not in a hurry to shift in so i can afford to think slowly. Out of the 4 IDs and 3 contractors that I have scheduled to meet up, 2 of the contractors put me aeroplane. Immediate blacklist!! I did not even sms them to ask if they are coming or not. I believe that if you have agreed to meet up, you should let me know if you are not coming. In their industry, keeping their customers informed is important, and showing up when you are supposed to show up is equally important. Anyway, I shall wait for the quotations to pour in before i do my shortlisting. Meantime... i shall take a short break from ID-ing.

    Actually hor... before i did the "pre-2nd appointment" inspection, i already noticed that the conditions of the house aren't as well-maintained as what I thought it was when I was viewing the unit. The main problem is with the laminated flooring... as there are some dents on them which would not show in the above pics. I'm now considering hacking off and rebuilding the laminated floor (instead of tiles to cut some cost). Let me see if I could take some pics of the condition and show it here, so that you bro and sis can gimme some comments. I'm also considering rewiring the entire house as the last time the unit went through a rewiring process was like 10 years ago. $$$$$$...

    Oh this light is cute... where did u get this from? How much ah? Hahha.. that seems to be my most-used phrase on renotalk nowadays.

    I'm still searching.... this is the lunar 7th month so I can take my own sweet time. Will be meeting up a few at my unit for them to see the current condition. I have to say... its a tiring process lo.

    Thank you thank you... now I am a proud (but poor) owner of a 3-room flat. Here's some pics that I took after collecting my key and completing the "roll pineapple" ceremony. The entrance... The wrought iron gate... More to come...

    Sounds like none of the air con vendors are trustworthy.

    Just went to inspect the soon-to-be-mine unit before the 2nd HDB appointment tomorrow, and I realised that the laminated flooring may need to redo, or change to tiles. When the unit is empty without furniture, a lot of flaws are revealed. Haiz.... looks like the reno will burn a big big hole in my wallet. Shall take some pics of the current state and post here after I take over the unit. Hopefully someone could help comment.

    I also like these bedside cabinets, and was disappointed when the link provided by Nexer has been taken offline by the seller. So I went through a thorough search on taobao for bedside cabinets. After scrolling through 27 over pages, just when I am about to give up... i found this: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.275.LI2pvr&id=13709529475

    And do u mind sharing how much this rain shower system cost ah? I'm also on the lookout for contractor/ID, so can PM your designtractor contact to me?

    Hi lilyden, thanks for posting your experience up, and you spent the whole night doing that? May I ask is the drop-in on top of the cabinet meant for the mattress??

    hi.... I'm a newbie to LED, and i have a question on these LED lights that you purchase. I read from other blogs that a driver is needed, So does your purchase come with driver? Or the driver is purchased separately in Singapore??

    OMG ... i only read it after you mentioned it. Thanks for pointing out. Luckily i was only there to see see look look, no purchase made. So when things are too good to be true, sometimes they really are, i guess. I was attracted by their low price. Oh well, guess I better stick to the more reputated ones, like Gain City/Harvey Norman/Courts/Best Denki.

    Was going around IMM today to see if there were any offers during National Day. Hmm... saw this aircon ads. Are these offers too good to be true? And this chair is cute... but very expensive. Beyond my budget... moving on.

    Is the rain shower installed?? Got pics? Any comments? I'm eyeing on that one too.
