I checked in the paintings... :sport-smiley-004: Ya.. I know I took a risk.

The paintings are not that big. Slightly smaller than A2. And since the paintings are already framed up and they are not too ex. And I'm lazy to go frame the paintings and I'm also cheapskate to pay more for framing, so I took this risk. I had the seller put both paintings facing each other. Paper wrap it. Then double bubble wrap it. Had the airport staff put a fragile sticker on it. And pray... :good:

But if I bought larger paintings or more expensive one, I will probably roll it up.

Hi Muzamm, the prices for electrical are break down into 2 category usually. Concealed or Non-Concealed. I think u can find the prices in the forums. How much does your contractor charged u, care to share?

hi and888, he say about 1k for 3 points(conceal) for my wall fan. im not sure if thats the standard price. but kind of rip off ley... what do u think?!

I don't have a breakdown price but I did not spend more than $1.8k for the wiring charges for the whole house.

he charge me 1k for 3 points conceal. for my wall fan... what do you think? rip off? also he say its illegal... really ah?

IMO, each fan point seems more expensive than an aircon point.

Hi kim76,

Managed to get my full load of amazon stuff. My husband was off to US for a trip and so ordered all stuff we needed and got them delivered to the hotel he was staying at. ..including the Mirage omnipolar center and 6x nanosat speakers

Too bad I couldn't wait to coincide with black Friday week.

Signed up amazon prime free 1-month trial membership and got inland shipping waived too...

Got the 3m filter which you bought as well..but plumber came and said mine very difficult to connect with my hansgrohe kitchen faucet. Called smc distributor but was told that the connectors you were using are not food grade and meant for pneumatic air flow..was in fact advised against using it for drinking water. Not sure if true...will check with smc again tomorrow. You may want to check it out too...

Love the magic holder. Very versatile to hang all sorts of diameter poles.

Cheers,

Luxray

When we got our canvas painting from Bali, we also brought back pretty much the same way as kim76. In the original cheap wood frame, bubble wrapped properly and checked in as fragile. The frame wasnt broken too when we received it.

Cheers,

I love the paintings from Bali!! :dribble:

I basically fell in love with those green and yellow padi fields paintings... But they can be quite expensive. Around $200-300 for one. That why I did not get any.

What type of painting you got? Any recommended shop to visit in case I plan to go next year? :dribble:

Hi Kim76,

Bali Ubud is a good place to get nice paintings from..though you must be prepared to bargain like crazy. I love my canvas painting, brightly colored and intricately painted. I got this piece from an artist centre in ubud, where there were many artists gathered and their art pieces displayed. Even had pix taken with the artist of the painting i bought.

Cheers,
