Well, Note 3's leak indicates RM2,299. Time for Nokia to counter-act if they have any interest to retain / build customers smile.gif

Still considering ... Might just wait for 1520 ... I'm okay with the price, but not with the processing lag.

Sadly that's usually the case in Malaysia. Only KL gets all the good deals. That's what happened back in 920 with monster headsets freebies or wireless charger... can't remember.. while us just can only head banging the wall for couldn't be there.

Correction, 900.

I got an umbrella for 920 ... Oh and a 4GB pendrive

4GB Pendrive?
I was there at Product Launching. I do not remember they offer Pendrive as Freebies.
While Umbrella, remember a bit.

Hmmm ... if I remember correctly, when L920 and L820 launched, the units weren't immediately available, hence no bundles. Then handsets were only available weeks after that and I was the first to queue in Gardens Nokia and purchased 2 units. They gave me 2 pendrives (one broken btw) and two umbrellas.

I will be heading to KL later tonight.
My sister ask me to help her get the L925 with current 16% Discount.

Hence, I am thinking to get it at The Curve Nokia Store.
The nearest Nokia Store I could reach, as I will be around IKANO in afternoon.

Do you or others happen to know whether there is Card Surcharge during Purchase?
*
There won't be a surcharge. In fact, surcharging is illegal brows.gif

Good to hear that.
I would feel awkward to charge Customer with Card surcharge, shall Nokia Official Store practiced this.

Really illegal kah?
*
Yes, merchant is supposed to bear the cost of financing (credit card), which is 2% for Visa / Master and 3% for Amex. Most banks would waive the financing charge when merchant exceeds 30k or more.

That's why you will never see an additional 2% or 3% charge in your receipt. They will always "add-on" to your item price. Such practice, while still common, is very much illegal and you have the right to sue. But it's going to be a long battle, not worth the hassle.

so far only Storekini.com knows the actual price and the mysterious gift, top it up they are exclusive too and you get the phone at first hand.

All other retailers won't get it, even Nokia store, only you get it first, kind of like a VIP service and you can't expect the price to be just RM2.3k  brows.gif

Well, too bad they don't take EzyPay. Otherwise it's a done deal for me tongue.gif

Is it available in Nokia Store? Or only through Storekini for the time being?

For 2,399 I'll take it, but only if it has EzyPay

Selling higher price is not bringing Nokia (or Microsoft) back into the game.

Anyway, the point here is, the more people willing to pay higher price, the price will be higher.
Just imagine if someone is doing a survey to see how many people willing to pay RM2399 or higher. If their survey found that there is enough people 'willing' to fork out so much, why should they lower the price?
Think for a moment.

Besides, the price could very much likely drop more if it's priced higher, so those early adopters may suffer the bigger loss and hurt when the price drops. Is it worth so much?
808 PureView didn't cost "that" much.

Well, it's a free market out there. Vote with your wallet. If you think the price is good, buy. Otherwise, don't.

I would say the RM2k+ would be a bundle, bundle with what? The grip of course! Few months later they will discard the bundle and introduces the "standalone" version, which is going to be, say... RM1.7k?

The grip will cost a lot and you'd probably think "I should've bought it earlier".

So, they better put this badass grip into the bundle.  mad.gif

Or wait for 1520 bundle brows.gif

The only thing keeping me back right now is the processing lag. If 1520 is half as good, I'll probably settle with 1520.

Just saying. If they can price it at RM1899, but many people said they willing to pay RM2399. Just imagine, should they price it RM1899?  rolleyes.gif

Anyway, eventually it will drop price, just how much. My point here is, why see people spend so much then after a short while, the price drops a lot?  rolleyes.gif

Of course, you can disagree with me. I'm just sharing my point of view, if people are doing survey how much they want to price "something", should the customer said, I willing to pay MORE or hope they can price it "competitively" and also more "reasonable", it's not really high end on the specs, the camera is the main thing, but the Nokia 808 PureView is only selling at RM1899.

Everyone has their own "price" they willing to pay, some may EVEN willing to pay RM2500, but why not cheaper if can? Or you prefer them to price it higher? Remember, the people doing survey to price the product is the key point here.
After the price is announced, it's up to each person decision how much they ACTUALLY willing to pay.
Some people may say, I willing to buy if the price is RM2299, but when actual launch, the person may not willing to pay for it and wait for price drop.
You may also notice, some say RM2299, then some say RM2199. Technically, it's RM100 difference. If really RM2299, will the person who said RM2199 won't buy? Or let's say, RM2099, the person target RM2K or below, so RM2099, will buy or not?

The price already rumored to be RM2XXX, so, how much they willing to price it, the people in forums/online may have "affect" on their decision how they are going to price it. Do you want them to price it higher or lower? It's up to you.
*
Yes, I get what you mean.

Price is subjective based on individuals. How much is cheap enough? How much is too expensive? Everyone has a different baseline to everything. Best way? Vote with your wallet. If it's cheap, grab. If it's expensive, fine, don't buy. No point whining in this thread (those who are whining about price, take note).

Which Nokia Store?
I was told by Nokia Store The Curve that they are not holding any L920 because L920 is being replaced with L925. I was like 'huh?' in my head.

Check out Pyramid or Gardens. I was there last week, still some units available. The display price is RM1,549 but that comes with a free wireless charging plate which would cost you RM260 if bought separately. If you don't want the plate, you may grab a 920 for RM1,399.
