Legend SS2:

QUOTE(benjaminn78 @ Jun 7 2009, 10:18 AM)
i live at SS2, but never buy anything from legend....heard too many bad news from they.....all my AV equipment by from HN, a bit expensive...but they serve me well.....garautee no open box....so ar i have no bad experience with HN.

QUOTE(Exarkun @ Jun 7 2009, 10:20 AM)
They also tried to do the bait and switch with me last year. Wanted 42LG53FR (FullHD). Said RM3300 for it. When I wanted to pay for deposit I confirm again is it 53FR, they said yes. Then after I have given the money, he wrote on the receipt 42LG30 (HD Ready). Luckily I checked before leaving the shop.

Sales guy said, at RM3300 where can get 42incher FullHD. I told them gimme back the RM200 deposit. Took the money, went to ESH instead.

QUOTE(kianwee @ Jun 7 2009, 10:26 AM)
Legend is known already for their bad sales tactics, especially throwing prices at ridiculously cheap, then when you go there, they will tell you they have no stock.

My experience was when I called them to check the availability of some appliances, they confirm say have. So I drove from Shah Alam to PJ, by the time I reach there, only they bother to actually check, and told me no stock. Only display unit available.

QUOTE(Par@dox @ Jun 7 2009, 11:17 AM)
A few of my friends also had horrible experiences with them.. don't bother buying with them.. walk a few doors next door and deal with Megatronik instead..

QUOTE(arremie @ Jun 7 2009, 12:11 PM)
Haha same here...took back my deposit and go ESH. No hassle and way better than Legend. Got Bonuslink point some more rclxms.gif

QUOTE(kaneshi @ Jun 8 2009, 03:28 PM)
In fact, I almost wanted to place an order for my Pana airconds, and 42S10k. Honestly, their price is very attractive. One thing I don't like about them is their sales tactic. most of their workers advised me not to purchased anything from the shop next to them (can't remember the shop name).

The way how they said is "the shop next to us is a con-shop, they sell stuff in very cheap price, but whenever u wanna pick up the stuff after u've paid the $$$, they will say no stock, and will ask u to get a replacement instead".

After all, it seems like Legend is the main culprit then. tongue.gif

QUOTE(arremie @ Yesterday, 02:31 AM)
The lady has spoken  .....but 2 bad experiences is enuf for me not to go back to Legend.

They say 1st mistake is because u r just human. 2nd mistake could happen when u try to give 1st mistake a second chance but if u let same mistakes happen to u thrice...u r just simply stupid

QUOTE(Barricade @ Yesterday, 10:02 AM)
Replying to this thread doesn't mean Legend is improving. I RECENTLY have a few bad experiences at Legend myself, with George and Liang. I called and ask for electrical appliances like iron and rice cooker, they say have stock. I travel all the way to SS2, imagine the toll and petrol, when I reach there they pretend to be searching up and down and tell me NO STOCK, left display unit, and ask me to take the display unit at the same price - not even cheaper! The price they offer me when i was there was also higher than the price they quote me over the phone. Something like luring me over there.... This happens for a few times and I stop buying from Legend SS2 from that day onwards.

QUOTE(Sony Trinitron @ Yesterday, 12:02 PM)
those who went to legend ss2 before, you see those salesman face also looks like crooks, worst than those pirated dvd seller

QUOTE(wenloong78 @ Yesterday, 02:34 PM)
i had a bad experience with this shop too. almost same as TS, but my problem is about buying a fridge, delivered a older model to me, which is bout RM50 cheaper than the one i ordered. went there and complaint, but the stuffs there keep telling me is the same thing inside, just the model number is different only( those brainless sales rep. never use their brain to think, if it is the same thing, why there are 2 different model?). however i din further argue with them as i need the fridge urgently for my house warming party.

but so sure, i will never buy things from this shop anymore, even if i saw and hear anyone discussing bout this shop, i will tell this story to them, let them judge themselves see if this shop can be trusted or not, is it safe to buy electronics from this shop or not.

QUOTE(yanhui95 @ Yesterday, 10:56 PM)
Never buy TV from this shop... they give display unit to customer!! last time my dad wan order pioneer kuro from them then i saw two ppl taking out a LG display unit and put inside the original box and seal it up.

Oh ya, i recommend desa HT and ESH

QUOTE(yumyum77 @ Today, 02:15 AM)
I know of a few friends who had bad experience with them. Not saying other shops don't use the same dirty sales tactic... but the force is strong in this one.

QUOTE(xrossf1re @ Today, 12:32 PM)
even though TS might be a faker like he said, but how about all other complain cases? there are so so so many complains against legend ss2. LEGEND SS2 is already known as a dirty tactics shop, even my grandma knows it. ptui. somemore threaten with legal actions, you're lucky those conned consumer didn't take legal actions towards you.

QUOTE(scotty @ Today, 01:20 PM)
lets list down the stories/sales tactic they are using biggrin.gif

1. sell u item A at a very good price. price that u will not resist. deposit paid. try to brain wash u to item B because they dont carry this specific brand A or this item A already discontinued biggrin.gif

QUOTE(Barricade @ Today, 02:15 PM)
2. Call them say got stock, reach there say no stock. Price also suddenly increase. What a tactics, even business management also cannot teach that... biggrin.gif

Yes, strongly agreed. Jz got con by Legend SS2,pls note that the guy named Anthony, never ever buy anything from him. He got bad attitude and irresponsible.

The initial price that he gave me was including installation, which suppose to include 10F piping. and guess wat, when the technician came he ask for RM150 extra each unit for piping. Of cz i called the sales guy n his answer was "include installation" means "deliver to ur house + hang it on ur wall" and denied wat he said b4.. his attitude is like "samseng" and dont wanna pick up my call after tat.. 
Ohh..i was so angry but nothing i can do cz i hd made the full payment, sigh..big mistake..

And then the most frustrating part is all the work done by the techinician is terrible, and need my main contractor to cover for him..sigh sigh sigh...

At last, i cancelled all the elec items i ordered from the Legend SS2.

I just bought some electrical items from Legend in SS2. It isnt my first time there. I have been there many time to buy cause the prices there are much cheaper compared to places like HSL and Seng Eng.

This time i bought a fridge, fan and washing machine from them. We confirmed on Sat that the delivery time is to be before 12 on Monday. We told them that we are staying in a gated community and the delivery time is strictly from 10am to 5 pm. So today, my dad went to my house to wait for the delivery man from Legend. My dad called Legend around 11am (that's when they open) to remind them. My dad was assured that the delivery man will be there by 12.

At 1230 my dad called Legend again. This time he was told that the delivery man will be there by 1pm. At 2pm still no sign of the delivery man. So my dad called them again. He was promised that the goods will arrive by 3pm. At 355pm still no sign of anyone from Legend.

So i called them. I was informed that the delivery man was on the way. I was satisfied so i spoke to the supervisor, Mr Wong. Mr Wong said the delivery man was on his way back to SS2 to collect the goods and will be there after 5. At this point, i informed Mr Wong that my area does not allow delivery man after 5pm. Mr Wong persistently argued that the guards will let them in. I find this absolutely absurd and ridiculous. If a residence who is saying that is saying such conduct is not allowed, who is he, an outsider to determine that it can be done? I find this not only preposterous but also terribly stupid.

I told them i wanted a refund. And end of story. I related this to my cousin who then told me that he has the same experience. He went to Legend to get air conditions for his condo and he needed them urgently cause his tenant was going to move in the next day. And Legend promised that they will deliver before 5pm cause his condo also does not allow delivery after 5pm. Legend did not turn up. Neither did they call. As a results, my cousin lost his tenant.

After my episode with Legend, i called HSL to find out the prices of the items i bought. Since its highly recommended by Legend as they are energy saving and what's not, i have decided to buy the same items from somewhere else. To my horror, i was informed by HSL that those items are old stock and the respective company no longer produce them. I thought its only a marketing gimmick maybe HSL does not have in stock. So i called a few more outlets and they all confirmed the same thing. Even other electrical shops confirmed it.

If i were you, i would avoid Legend at all costs.

i bot a sharp-aqous LCD tv from them bout 1.5years back. the sales-person was ah liang - which was mentioned in the previous thread. he seemed nice to me, but keep telling me which model to buy even tho i've told him which model i wanted.

they will try to sell you what they hv in stock...i think for 'agents' like legend, they are oso stockist. so, to make money, they hv to clear their stock, and not sell something not available in their warehouse, tho nonetheless, what they did was very unprofessional and i was really really disappointed to hear about the complaint from fellow forumer here. actually, he was the one who told me to look out for double-taped boxes...to see if the tv sets is new or display set...amazing how he can do the same later...

i was actually planning to get my next tv from them, cos to be honest, apart from the offers made in LYN, theirs are probably the cheapest...

but then now, after reading bout the complaint, i dun think i'd wanna buy from them...consumer's power in Malaysia should be alot stronger than what it is now, but since we dun have strong committee to represent consumer/buyers, forums & blogs is one of the only way...by standing together strongly, we will make our presences felt.

let us unite and boycott buyin from legend...

just wanna add, i dun believe in paying deposits. its not like they are the only one with the product & its defintely not a limited edition product.

When I was shopping for my LCD 2 yrs ago, Legend offered the best pricing for most brands but since they did not have the few models I shortlisted I bought fr somewhere else..... luckily?

My xperinence with sales staff there was not very friendly or helpful & price was 'cash&carry' i.e. need to add RM200 for transportation

I think you should take a look at www.jintexelectronics.com

Their price can fight Legend and they are just at Sea Park. They're selling Panasonic S10 the cheapest that I found so far. Don't know bout other model though, might worth to take a look.

My experience was when I called them to check the availability of some appliances, they confirm say have. So I drove from Shah Alam to PJ, by the time I reach there, only they bother to actually check, and told me no stock. Only display unit available. This happens for 2-3 times in a row. I stop dealing with SS2 branch now.

Last year when Yammy V663 Just launched in Malaysia.
I went to LegendSS2 the next day after the stock arrived, cash and carry.
I got what I want, I was happy.
Did not bother how they look like, what are their attitude etc.
Afterall, they have the stock, the price is good.
That's what matter to me.
It was my first time deal with them.

Tell me how the heck my above statement looked like i am defending Legend? A lot?? I have never bought anything from Legend hence why i don't have any bad experience from them. Heck, my only stuff (LCD TV, AVR & speakers) that i bought were from Desa HT & A&L and i got a bad experience from Desa HT only. What you think i'm working with Legend? Some forumer here know where i'm working and i can list down their names here if you want.

I do appreciate the comments about Legend because you guys 'warned' me not buy from them. That's why i proposed to TS that we should compile all complaints from different shops as warning to us here.

The end.

I went there once thinking to buy a plasma tv but all change when i walk in. Instead of selling TV, the staff starting to bad-mouth the store next door. Made me changed my mind and bought from TAN BOON MING which reliable. Another reliable shop is ESH. Good luck to all those thinking about buying from LXGXXD. Sorry for the censored words, worry might get SAMAN......he he he

I bought my Toshiba Regza from Desa Home LYP. I suspected they gave me a display set. Judging from the light scratches and the plastic cover looked like it was open. And at the top of my LCD screen the backlight is uneven. Really regret buying from Desa HT.

I'd like to share my experience with Legend SS2.

I went there looking for an LCD TV a couple of months back. When I decided on a particular model, I asked for their best price. Satisfied with the price, I enquired further on the availability of stock. The salesperson told me that they have ready stock, but can only deliver on the following day as it was late already at that time. (around 5pm)

So fair enough, I paid a deposit and looked forward to receiving my TV the following day.
The next day came and nobody called me to arrange delivery/acceptance. I called them up to ask and when I did, the fella on the other line was like "What? not yet send???? wait wait i check for you"

Called them back 30mins later, and they tell me no more stock. mad.gif
Then when I asked why was I told that there was stock in hand, the guy said that they JUST sold out on that particular model. And he then proceeded to ask me whether I want another model or not.

No thank you. I told them that I want to cancel my order. On the same day itself I contacted another shop, and I got my TV delivered to me and installed on the very same day itself. thumbup.gif
Went to get back my deposit from Legend SS2 after that. cool2.gif

punk: (he show me the x10k)

me: do you have the s10k as well?

punk: actually hor..panasonic plasma not so good one...LCD better, you see we sell many LCD oleadi...Plasma only good if you buy the expensive one...like kuro..we sell many kuro...if you watch ASTRO hor..LCD better, panasonic plasma no good, thats why panasonic give up making plasma and they are a small player in plasma...i advised you to buy LCD..yada..yada..yada..

me: never mind, just my own preference to buy plasma, do you have the S10k?

Punk: acutally hor...s10k cannot sell, very expensive, quality also worst than LCD..thats why we do not dare to bring it in..yadda..yada..yada...

well if he use different approach like...

punk:sorry, we do not have s10k with us now as this model is still quite new. why don you considered the x10k as the only difference is one is FHD and the others are HDready, if you sit more than 8ft away, you are unlikely to see much difference. but S10k comes with a not so glarish glass compare to x10k, that is about the difference. cosmetically these 2 models looks similar, only one silver finishes line at the bottom of the S10k. and we are doing a promotion on this x10k since it is an older model, and we can give an attractive price to you... now let me show you how this display looks with ASTRO and "ahem" DVD while i go and ask the best price for you."

with such a simple push...i may buy! nod.gif

the bottomline is, never go against your customer will...if you do not have these 2 models, just tell me and politely ask is it ok for him to reccomend others model and not simply shoot....and never stop

i went to DESA HT in Kepong to look see look see the panny 42x10 vs 42s10.

the punkie sales man came over and say:" yes sir, anything i can help you?"

me: I want to have a look on 42x10 and 42s10

punk: (he show me the x10k)

me: do you have the s10k as well?

punk: actually hor..panasonic plasma not so good one...LCD better, you see we sell many LCD oleadi...Plasma only good if you buy the expensive one...like kuro..we sell many kuro...if you watch ASTRO hor..LCD better, panasonic plasma no good, thats why panasonic give up making plasma and they are a small player in plasma...i advised you to buy LCD..yada..yada..yada..

me: never mind, just my own preference to buy plasma, do you have the S10k?

Punk: acutally hor...s10k cannot sell, very expensive, quality also worst than LCD..thats why we do not dare to bring it in..yadda..yada..yada...

me: ok...ok..ok...nevermind..(i just walk off)

If i were the owner of DESA HT, i will sack this type of salesman, talk too much and damn iritating..100% due to this Salesman, the shop lost a sale...

maybe the owner also taught the salesman to be like that:)

I dont know why you guys complain about Legends. My experience with them was different. I bought my household items in Legends SS2 in Sept 09 and again 2 weeks ago. I have found Legends to be extremely cheap and the products are latest.

Of course they will have old stock as well especially imported brands which are not easy to sell like Electrolux and Bosch which they will try and sell to you but as a customer u should have your own knowledge of the products which u want. U cannot depend on the salesman to tell you everything.

At first when i went there i couldnt believe that the products were that cheap. All the products are about a few hundred cheaper than other places. I have gone around and looked in PJ and Puchong as well and none can match the prices Legends offers you. But of course u must be able to bargain. Dont expect them to offer you a very low price if you dont ask for it first.

I have double checked the Serial Numbers and Model numbers of the items which i bought with the respective HQ's e.g Toshiba, Phillips, LG, etc and all confirmed that the models i was interested in were the LATEST.

I bought a LG 32 inch full HD LCD TV 2 weeks ago. The model was 32LF20FR. The Legends salesman told me this was the latest. But i didnt quite believe because of the price he gave me. So i called up LG and they confirmed that the model was only launched about 3 weeks before that. I even faxed the copy of the brochure i got from Legends just to reconfirm the model number and they confirmed it for me. LG told me the retail price was RM 1999. But i bought mine for only RM 1550 from Legends SS2. Exact same model. Can someone show me another shop in Klang Valley which can give me a better price for the same model? I doubt. When i was in Legends, i saw a sales invoice for the same product which was bought by someone else for RM 1650. So it depends on how well u bargain. If u dont know how to bargain for sure ull end up paying a bit more. Dont blame the shop if u cant bargain well. Everybody wants to make the most profit. Its not a display set because i bought the unit on the spot thus it didnt come off the wall.

When i bought my other household products back in Sept 09, i went thru the same procedure. I also went to check out ESH which is nearby. When i told them about the price that Legends was quoting me, ESH said no way Legends can offer so cheap. So i did all my usual background checks e.g calling up the respective products HQ, checking against other shops, etc. But couldnt find anything wrong or fishy with Legends. So i bought about 6 products from them and then took the original invoices and warranty cards and returned to ESH to prove to them. They were surprised and had no words to explain the price difference. For your info the 6 products cost about 2K cheaper than the total price quoted by ESH and another 2 shops in Puchong.

I also bought a Philips 42 inch Full HD LCD TV (42PFL3609S/98) with Digital Crystal Clear for RM 2850 only in Sept 09. This TV model was officially launched in June 2009. The same TV is currently sold in most shopping centres for about RM 3300 above. U can check it out yourself.

On the service, Legends delivered my products at the time i wanted without any hassle. The boss even called me up about 1 week after that to enquire whether all my products were working well. This is good customer service.

I have bought things from them on 4 occasions and all the time the products were latest, branded and cheap. It may be because of the salesman ive been dealing with. His name is Alex and so far he has served me well. Maybe the other guys arent as good but i can only speak from my own experience.

all shopkeepers r more concern about the profits than returning customers...

From his post, i can see that he is a very fussy, demanding, hard to handle customer.. perhaps thats y he got the best service?

Luckily the invoice he saw is 1650 not 1450, he would sing a different song then...

even tho i have never shop there, i didnt like how they handle complaints in the original thread... threaten to sue if i remember correctly?

My experience in Rock Audio, Pertama Complex few years ago..
They said Wharfedale SW150 display set sold for RM700 only (normal price was RM1800). I was too excited to get that display set and use my credit card to pay. After the payment succeeded, one of the staff call their boss and frustrated me that they were wrong. The price was actually for other Wharfedale Subwoofer model that I was not interested to buy. As they refuse to refund, i have to take Diamond 9.cc and for what?

That shop is no longer available in Pertama Complex and I hope they would be no longer operating in this country for the sake of people..

When i said not new i mean i have been READING posts here for some time but i only REGISTERED an account to share something about Legends. Read what i typed earlier before u confuse yerself further.

What u guys are saying about Legends could be true. Im not denying it. But im sharing MY experience with them which was positive so far. And yes i do check everything before i buy. I do that with anything i invest in which is why i have rarely made any investment mistakes. Thats why ppl think twice before trying to cheat me. This is what everybody should do to protect yourself from unscrupulous vendors. End of the day im a satisfied customer and that's what matters. No point talking alot and still get cheated and then come on the Forums to complain later when you could have done it right the first time by getting 2nd opinions and doing your research.

But i appreciate everybody's comments. We should share our good and bad experiences with everybody so that we can learn from each other's mistakes. This is the power of the consumer.

Cheers!

Wahsay, so many -ve comments abt Legend. I'm changing my very old aircon for a new one, and thought to check out some info here and was surprised to read all these.
I've had one buying experience with Legend SS2 and many buying experiences with Legend Old Klang Road.

Legend SS2: Ya, they tried to con me. Tipu me that the shower head of the water heater is metal when it's plastic. My bad for not checking (that was many many years ago when I was naive lah). Then I brought my bf along, and they got scared and replaced it for something else better. So after that I never went back to them anymore.

Legend Old Klang Road: Have bought many many items from them over the years, with no issue. Of course to get good prices, must bargain like mad. But there's always a compromise on both sides. That's why I've been going back to them, but this doesn't mean it will always be the same. that's why I'm here looking for info on my next purchase.

Just my two cents worth. smile.gif

Last week just deal with Weng Hing Electronic shop Kepong (http://www.letrikwenghing.com) with fridge, washing machine, vacuum and plasma TV. Initially their price is good for me, i ordered & booked the goods in advance 1 week.

But i was so angry they last minute told me the TV no stock during the delivering day and said have to wait for 2 weeks! (without apologies) The day was my first day moving in! They also promised there have some the free gift but not given together when deliver!! I had to called them ask again and went back to their shop to redeem the free gift!

was recommended by my wife's uncle who happen to stay in ss2 to go check out legends
but as usual la, i know how to use google
and stumble upon this

nvm, forget it, don even wanna put the effort to park my car there now.

btw
GENERALLY there are 2 types of electrical consumers

Type A
I want to buy a TV

Type B
I want to buy Phillips 55pfl8008

i think generally people are more to type A. hence that seller's attitude. even they get a diff model they wont know or even mind, its a TV.
