redstone SG The photography shop at Midpoint Orchard's B1 floor (where you need to go down short flight of stairs from the footpath) has disgraceful service. Man: "What do you want?" Me: "Excuse me, how much for a 1 GB SD Card?" Man: (says price) Me: "Oh that's quite expensive.... how much for a 512MB card?" Man (says price) Me: "What about 256MB?" Man: (says price) Me: "Er, let me think" Me: "Pardon me, how much for a 256MB card again?" Man: "Do you have a budget?" Me: "No. Pardon me, how much for a 256MB card again?" Man: (irritated) "Do you have a budget?" Me: "No, I need to know the prices so I can decide. How much for a 256MB card?" Man: "You don't have a budget?! After you have a budget, come back again and we'll talk about price" _____________________ Never encountered such an attitude, be it in pasar malam or shopping centre. In neighbourhood shops nevermind, but in a tourism area????
bravo27 SG I will never ever revisit a shop if I had bad service there. It's like you know they gonna treat u like shit and yet u still go get smear all over your face.
dragg SG why check for prices at orchard road in the first place? they pay heavy rentals, thus more expensive. or am i wrong?
stellazio SG hmmm,bad place to shop for electronic shops..but den again,most part timers aren't really gracious in their service...
stellazio SG wait ppl,are the part timers or full timers normally the ones who shows attitude? coming to think of it,it could be the full timers who are stressed about not getting a better job den start to show attitude..
Mr Fugue SG thread-starter, do exactly what you did in an ancient dzi bead retail shop... I betcha the staff will throw you out in due time~!!
Glen999 SG give us the name. why you want to protect the shop name? this is the problem in singapore. nobody wants to bad-mouth a shop and pin point a shop.... thus, the shop doesn't care.
Mr Fugue SG scare the shop will sue mahz...... anyways dun have to give name, just hint the location, some other details, people will know de...
Mr Fugue SG in the MASTER MANUAL of the ''Art of Suanning'', the 1st rule is being able to suan without mentioning name(s).
Mr Fugue SG eg; the ''durian'' by the bay sux. you all should know what I'm referring to, right?? *PS: if you dun, maybe your mother forgot to born you a brain~!!!
redstone SG The shop is at B1 level, down a short stairs from the footpath at Orchard Rd. It's one medium sized Chinese guy in his mid 30s. Think who he is? King? Just wanna him to repeat the price for the memory card, not like it's asking him to give me the price of every single item in the shop. Or run a marathon under 1 hour! Dun wanna repeat, still act like as if he earns a million dollars an hour and that I'm wasting his few precious seconds!
Mr Fugue SG maybe he thinks that you're a spy from a competitior, coming to investigate his product pricing??
