Darn!~ I don't really know the price well..
But the actual price on the receipt is $10.90, that's what he is charging..
But after he gave 10% off, it was $9.80.

So still overcharge?

*All prices are in SG Dollars.

I think it depends on what colour you buy, some colours also cost $10.90 at other shops.

Really? Marking up a product then marking it down again is an unethical business practise. Sad to say everyone does it here.

:aug2:

Anyway, will head down to the store at Tiong Bahru after work today.

Heard so many things about it I had to check it out.

Forhod · 10-31-2002, 12:25 AM

Hmm, I bought a TS-26..

Hi, I am new here. And I am David R Tunedin'. Thanks for your support, will work harder. As for, why sometime I was late open and long gone is because I am 1 man show. Hope you guys understand that I am the only one mend the shop, and no one helps me. Of course the shop is only 7 months old, and I don't think that is the right time to expand my shop to website and getting sales personal.
I actually try to satisfy my customer as much as possible. To get models if there is still chance. Just don't 'fly kite', then that's ok.I like to talk about modelling and cars with my customer. I think it's quite hard for me to have chance talking with Singapore auto modelers. Feel happy when I talk to them, only thing is afraid you guys will say I'm too talkative.

For the GT wing, qty is limited. I only order 12 pcs, don't know is it enough. As for the Carbon fiber decal from Fujimi, I might stop bring in, since it is not that good. I will replace it by BBR. It's cheaper.
Most of the customers who walk in to my shop will have automatic 10% off all items, only selected item will get 20%. In fact, now most of my fijimi that are in red tags are on 25%. That's the max. The stock will not lower like MH. Most of the rims (new and old) will be in. EG6 is in. (I know is ex, but my shipping from Jap is ex too.)

Next time when you drop by my shop, could you guys tell me your ID from AF too. So I know who are you. Thanks.
If you guys going for gathering, can anyone call me. I really like to get more friends, especially the auto modeling friends.

Thanks for all your support,
David

thanks srixy..

by the way, David R Tunedin'..welcome to AF...
