today went tampines courts megastore, since bad experience at
courts jurong pointbut today made a trip to megastore but turned
out sama sama again lah. was at level 1 looking at electric oven
with a friend, within the electric oven area its left and right
rows of electric ovens and there was a staff attending to 2
customers, so total in the lane 5 of us. then my friend was looking
at electric oven and i surfed net on smartphone, then i noticed
suddenly 2 courts staff a male and female standing right at the end
of the lane, guy senang diri and female eyes floating around, again
same feeling they were watching us closely, i immediately walked
toward her and when she made eye contact, quickly zoomed off, the
guy still standing there looking straight. i told my friend leave.
few years back in jurong point courts also the same, i was looking
at some printer inks, and a blue polo shirt courts staff walked
outside courts and moved toward the lane i was in took a peekd at
me and then walked down to escalator, think i dont knwo he is
wearing blue courts staff meh siao. also only in courts megastore,
they have more promoters then staff, and the staff is wearing brown
beige colour with an A sign besides their short sleeve and the have
a base salary so you will see they wont chiong towards you harass
you to buy but those blue colour shirt are promoters, earn most of
their pay from selling items so they will chiong towards you force
you pay and hope you dont use smartphone to compare prices. dont
let them think for you or you end up pay high price. in tampines
mall also the same, the courts staff will watch at you until you
leave or harass you to buy and think for you.
to sum up once you enter courts store, you stand to lose. why?
because their male and female staff will always treat you as thief
first until you buy then you become customers, regardless of how
your wear unless you are ang moh la as they treat white men better
like the same in orchard road. then their tactics is to stand at
one end of a lane looking at you and if you approach them why they
keep staring at you to treat you as potential thief, their standard
reply is: oh no la we thought watnt to standy here to serve you
immediately if you need help, but if such a case then they should
come forward and ask if we need help and not standing faraway
watching you. what a stupid and lame excuse. then if you never buy
they cant make commission but the male and female staff have
already oggled at your boyfriend or girlfriend, husband or wife
enough liao loh thats why they stand faraway at one end of the lane
mah.
go goh ah bee or kong tai buy, trick is if courts online price
has a sale price, its the same sale price in store so you can call
goh ah bee or kong tai to compare price no need go to courts
anymore, if there is no sale price in courts online, there maybe a
sale price in courts store but experience has proven that goh ah
bee and kong tai and other shops hae already knew the price as its
public anyone can check out so they will also undercut courts in
store sale price so no need go court store also. just go courts
online check model and price and call goh ah bee or kong tai or
others easily and simple, no need go out, goh ah bee will just send
to your house and you pay them on spot, no need even go to goh ah
bee pay deposit.
for furniture, go to the brand you like their own showroom. but
you definitely need a staf to guide you along and you ask
intelligent questions sound the staff out about price and product
knowledge to gain experience no need to buy, but you can walk
around also no one will harass or watch you carefully because
furniture to big to steal man.
courts sg better wise up, learn from the passive staff behavior
from ikea, popular bookstore, times bookshop, cold storage, if you
ask then they respond if not they leave you alone totally in your
own dream world, ntuc fairprice cannot as they employ many
ex-police uncle they will prey and track you one by one every
minute – why fairprice no money install sensor and sticker on all
items meh haiz.
