I got my prices from neighbourhood stores first to get a feel of how low it can go. Armed with that information, I went to these bigger companies (Harvey to be specific) to check prices, tell them to give their best price, you will give them the deal. Most of the time they are willing to match the neighbourhood prices, and sometimes they come with extra freebies. :D

i did almost the same, called up some neighbourhood stores e.g. Hong Liang, Everjoint; then go to gaincity website and quote a lower price in i-wish.

Cheers!

did you ever try Mega Discount Store? Confirmed their prices will be alot cheaper than Gain City and all these stores.

Gain City is never cheap, you know.

Mega Discount Store's prices can match to those famous neighborhood stores that you know

I'm also settling in. I have been walking around HN, gain city, best denki and courts for the past few months. Always found courts to be cheapests for the same product. Bought LCD, fridge and washer from them.

ya i hv been to Mega Katong 2 times but couldnt get anything...now priority is fridge and washing machine...die die hv to settle this weekend...lucky its also the HN warehouse sale tis weekend at the EXPO...so hope can settle.... :P

Courts - the most expensive.

Gaincity - depends what weekend, sometimes they have cash voucher, other weeks they have trade in. For new move in, trade in don't work.

Best deal - GOH AH BEE. Blk 210, hougang st 21, tel 62888611.

Bought my washer, fridge there. for eg, Mitsubishi fridge is 200 cheaper than gain city, 350 than courts. Go courts to see physical goods.

Mega Discount store can get u the items that they are not displaying there.... they can just call the supplier and supplier will send it directly to you.

you just have to talk to the sales ppl.........

Sorry to burst your bubble.

Court is on the last of the list if buying anything.

Instalments not fulfilled, items confiscated, resell to others ...

My relatives bought a washer with the lint bag full.

This "Timex" guy must be a Courts salesman........
