Recently i bought a 42" LCT TV from a Electrical (Chain) Store. They quote me the price RM2950.
They said it come with a HDMI cable and a screen cleaning kit which worth about RM400/
I did not ask for discount/lower price. So i bought the LCT TV together with the cable and cleaning kit

Later i found out they have a website with all their product listed with price tag.
and the price for my LCT TV is only RM 2580.00 without HDMI cable and cleaning kit
(The different is RM2950-RM2580=RM370 )

Just wondering will a HDMI cable+screen cleaning kit cost that much (RM370) !
Am i cheated?

Now am thinking to buy a blu-ray player but i think am not going back that store.

In my opinion, Yes.

yes you are.

to be fair, it's the shop's competency to sell at higher price... making the most profit out of every sale is the seller's goal, whereas buying at lowest is consumer's goal...

sometimes sellers win, sometimes consumers..... but it'll be an ongoing battle.

I don't see it as cheating. Sorry.

A real cheating story was when I bought a HT set from Desa HT and found out there was no warranty card inside my set meaning I was buying a returned set. I had to go through the trouble of returning the set the next day and wasn't even given a deal sweetener for my troubles.

I refuse to buy from them anymore.

well, you could have ask the price without all the free gift..
so even shop around to get the average price..
be a smart consumer..

Need to do some homework and window shopping, sometimes even shop side by side different price and different package.

Correct, we need to do survey before purchasing... Avoid to kena cheat...

HDMI cable and 'cleaning kit' for RM400?!

However, willing buyer and willing seller, transaction's done so nothing you can do about it. But why so protective of them, just expose the name of the chain so future potential customers will be alerted. I am sure you will feel better as well

Do your homework first. Then spare yourself the heartaches later
Why check their website after the purchase and not before?
You were happy with the purchase initially, so just sit back and enjoy it. Nasi dah jadi bubur.

shop is like that ... any shop also same.....

they see you noob they cheat you

based on your scenario, i dont see any cheating issue involved.

cheating refers to a customer wanting to buy product A, and the shop gave the product B.

you should not compare the walk-in price and the website price.

for instance, why there is no customer complains to MPH saying that their books are more expensive than amazon?

thats not cheating...every shops have their own prices...

Go to friends shop even worst...friend friend but potong kepala

cant said its cheat..............
You agreed for that price, willing to sell, willing to buy
and FYI, the units showing at their website might display unit, thats why the price lower a lot

Friends shop got big smiles,then tikam belakang ka..hehe

Willing seller, willing buyer. No one pointed a gun at your head to buy from that store. So it is 100% your fault for not doing any research first.

Can u tell which shops

If the RRP is higher than it is not cheated, but if it is higher than RRP then I think the you've been cheated.

So this case. The answer is Yes

cheat no..you noob yes..


mine to tell us which shop?
