gimz63251073 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 Was sourcing for quotations for my table top: Clear tempered glass with polished sides and rounded edges: 1800mm by 850mm by 8mm. Was surprised by the range of quotes given to me. Lowest is from $95. Highest is till $292. Most of them around $200. Anyone knows whats like the market rate? Sometimes too cheap is a bit worrying...

samgalz 2 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) is the dining table going to be permanently placed there? if it is, how do you all plan to sit since there is a drop-down to the kitchen? for your glass top, you may want to go to those glass makers and get them to cut to your size for you. Here are a few cos I've previously saved: Yuen Tat Glass Tel: 6368 9371 (apparently a 150x90cm 6mm glass only costs about a hundred bucks) Sun Sun Glass Tel: 6283 3126 Siatyun Safety Glass Pte Ltd Tel: 6744 1277 gimz: i wanted to reply to you abt the glass but lilith beat me to it. so now she is the new google for renotalk. FYI, genuine ones have a tempered glass stamp on it. also since u using as dining top, probably u need something more than 6mm. so far sun sun is used by ossify and yuen tat is used by zerochristy. both are ok according to them. lilth: the medicine cabinet selling at GR link too. u check price at a few places and compare. previously I saw at hoe kee selling 150 plus for the bigger ones Edited June 8, 2010 by samgalz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gimz63251073 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 yep, those mirror cabinets are called medicine cabinets. i'll be getting one for our bath as well. but think might be bigger than yours at 40x60cm..? is the dining table going to be permanently placed there? if it is, how do you all plan to sit since there is a drop-down to the kitchen? for your glass top, you may want to go to those glass makers and get them to cut to your size for you. Here are a few cos I've previously saved: Yuen Tat Glass Tel: 6368 9371 (apparently a 150x90cm 6mm glass only costs about a hundred bucks) Sun Sun Glass Tel: 6283 3126 Siatyun Safety Glass Pte Ltd Tel: 6744 1277 ohh the width of the medicine cabinet is 40cm, height not sure...prob around 60cm costs $105 at Poh Joo. We stick those pads at the legs of the table, can drag it around easily without damaging the floor. Normally, only baby and me there, so we sit side by side to eat. If we have guests, will pull it out and put in parallel to the kitchen cabinets. Thanks to you, Samgalz and Pat for the lobang. Called Yuen Tat but no one picked up. Probably out for lunch or wat... Got a quote at $95 before GST and delivery for a 8mm thickness. 6mm thickness maybe less $5 or $10 only. Maybe i asking my friend to help, but the place is in Changi...i a bit pai say also...

zerochristy 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 The other opt is get the lowest price and lowest delivery charge than call a company you selected and counter offer them the price which other glass supplier can offer. I done this before and some glass supplier are willing to go to the bottom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your glass price should be slightly much more than mine but I dun believe that the delivery charges is so high. I talk to a lady call Siew Lee and she quote me the price.
