  7. Hi Bro, don't feel bad abt it. I must be thankful for your update and info. It is just their inconsistent pricing policy. I was still thinking they may have quoted you based on discounted price and for me is the normal walk in price. Just got to be more vigiliant. Hope your fish is doing well. Thanks again. : )
  8. should still have, this is like a standard.
  9. remember, the head loss with all the t-off and elbow piping matter.
  10. bingo. no offence to bmw owners. just for a laugh.
  11. haha...those driving BMW will jack up price more .....cos they always need to replace their window......know why
  12. bro, you off again huh.....so free huh....lol. cannot judge them on what they drive........then i should go to shop owner who dont drive and walk to shop. lol
  13. bro, as mentioned, this is sharing of experience and may be an isolated case. Hence, just becareful in buying livestock, do some search to understand the so-call market rate and decide for yourself when quoted by the LFS. No offence for not disclosing. Appreciate your understanding on this. thanks.
  14. Charging premium price is fine as long as it is justifable(only the shop knows best) and customer is satisfied with the quality. Some LFS are famous for their premium pricing for stocks but yet still have lots of supporters due to quality they bought. I think the problem is inconsistent pricing and that is one which i think shop should take note. It doesnt reflect well, like those "black inn" at Sim Lim Square. If their pricing is consistent, i don't mind paying more than normal to acquire the stock or enjoy less discount(hoping one day can be in their loyal customer list to enjoy better discount). It is the disappointing feeling that an established shop giving me this impression. Maybe i am the unlucky one or should i be honoured to feel like a carrot head. Lol. Whether the shop will prosper using this practise, only time will tell. Anyway, this is just for sharing.
  15. haha. Ya, bro reefzzz should start trigger crazy. Hehehe.
  16. so bro reefzzz, you will join in the angels' clan @@...hehe
  17. nice tank. You didnt go with the inspiring photo.....schools of king.....LCK got at least 4 to 5 kings....you should remove your black cap photo and change to queen photo. hehe. will drop by your place one day to appreciate your queen.
  18. thanks all. no pro lar. just dont like the feeling but will take it easy and continue to reef on. Hehe. Time will tell. : )
  19. then i think such shops are not worth .....lol. Anyway, i dont own them and they dont own me. Just have to bit the bullets. Lol. thanks.
  20. no point stating which shop. Understand there is no standard pricing but i think the price is almost doubled the selling price of other shops selling similar fish. Anyway, just hope beginners do more research before buying things. Yup, it is naturally that regulars of a shop will enjoy special treatment. for me, i will place my money in shops i trust and comfortable with. bro Ivcap, no problem lar. dont worry. he he. thks for the updates.
  21. Just want to share some experience and hope new reefers out there learn. Wanted to get a fish and was informed by a kind bro here that the price is $85 for a small one and $100 for big one. Decided to go down and take a look at the fish. Prior to my visit, a bro went ahead and gotten the fish at the price stated(plus minus). Therefore, i was kind of interested to get one also. Went to the shop and was told $120 for all sizes. Was told shipment charge went up, etc and later given a discount price of $100. I understand in this trade, it is willing buyer and willing seller but i find the inconsistency in pricing turned me off. I can understand for regulars tend to enjoy better discount, no doubt, and think is reasonable but for my experience, not the first time i get this kind of unpleasant experience. I also support paying premium to get better quality fishes but just cannot accept inconsistency pricing. Hence, for newbie, do your research and decide in your purchase. Happy reefing.
