Yup, don't give them a cent. Just like Thong Sia (with Seiko), they are screwing with our hard-earned money. Just like before Lego Corp came into Malaysia, prices of Lego sets were crazy! Now it's more realistic and affordable and we get the sets so much faster!

If only Casio Japan would come in and take over...

any1 tried this deal?
deal

i suggest u try checking watch shops in Sg Wang n Pertama complex 1st. might be able to get better price. bargain a lot n make sure got Marco warranty.

G Factory good place to browse but not good place to buy. take d G Factory prices as maximum price. go other watch shops n look for better price.

i was browsing their fb page recently n some ppl were complaining about another price increase. G Factory fb admin gave excuse that price increase due to RM to Yen exchange rate. someone did a calculation n even with higher exchange rate, G Factory's price increase way higher.

d Mudman u mentioned is probably a Multi Band model that's y its much more expensive den ebay. the non multi band mudman is only RM700 to 800 at G Factory.

Well, to be honest, I've been "showrooming" for the longest time. Always check the items you want to buy, in the local physical stores and getting them much cheaper online. Getting stuff all over the internet, i.e. Amazon, eBay, Rakuten, Lelong, lowyat... It's not that I do not want to support local stores, but they charge much too high... if it's a 10-15% gap, I'll get it locally. More than that, I'm sorry but I'll look it up on the net.

Yeah, I was looking at the Multiband model. However, since they 'feel' they can get away with that pricing, I'll get it off eBay then...

But I must stop my g-shocking buying for this month, already purchased 3 models liao and it hurts my wallet (with CNY around the corner)...

3 models in a month ? or just so far 3 models ?

i just got started n i already got one 9300 Mudman recently. now im looking to add maybe a G5600E or G6900-1...or maybe both.

since u been showrooming...i wanna ask u something i observed recently.

whenever there is a G Factory in a mall...other watch shops in that mall that sell g shocks will no longer give discounts. or they just mark up retail price den give u discount. but d discounted price just ends up d same as G Factory price.

i went to Paradigm mall to look at g shocks. G Factory no discount...that's expected. 2 other watch shops i went to also don't want to give discounts. another shop marked up prices by RM100 to 150 more than G Factory.

have u noticed this in other malls with a G Factory ?

Oh.... one GA-400, one GW-A1000FC, one GW-A1100... already more than RM2,000...

I'm sorry, but I never ask for discounted pricing from G-Factory... already know their tactics of price control.
My suggestion is to try the shops at Ground Floor, Sg Wang and Pertama Complex...

This is expected from the sole distributor in Malaysia, in fact most of the sole distributorships in Malaysia practices this method of maximizing profits.
Which is why I stated previously, unless the parent company comes in and takes over from those so-called exclusive distributors, the situation for us consumers will not be optimistic in pricing. So we will always have the eBays and the Amazons to elevate the pain of our hobbies...

hello, tis is my latest loot. actually not very latest also, looted back during the time before christmas

limited edition couple watch

Thanks bro! So, RM350 for 6900MS-1 is considered high?

dunno man. me also baru start liking g shocks. im planning to go to sg wang next week.

FYI G6900-1 is priced at RM359 at G Factory. no discount.

IMHO u can probably get the 6900MS cheaper at Sg Wang n pertama

Hi all,

New to this thread. My last G Shock purchase was when dinosaurs rule the earth, so it's high time to shop around. Does anyone here knows if the GBA-400 can connect to iPhone 6 or 6 Plus already? Am considering between this and the GA-1000 series.

Go shopping for a G for CNY...

I think I have decided on getting both G5600E n G6900 in the coming weeks. I already have a black 9300 Mudman so i was thinking of getting the 5600 n 6900 in different colours.

However i do not like the other colours available for the 5600 n 6900 solar versions.

im not sure if i shud get so many basic black g shocks...

Hye all sifu :-) still searching for my 1st g-shock and aiming for DW-6900 series, just abit confius wan to buy a limited 1 or just normal series, my modal for the watch around 700 n below, so you guys can give any sugst which 1 i should buy? Planing to use it daily thanks in advance peace :-)

Well, surprise surprise, look at what the postman brought me today? And just in time for CNY!

thats why i stick to master of G series.
6900 i only like the G6900KG and DW6900SD-8...but i know they wont get wrist time as competing with my rangeman, mudmans and protreks... so i haven't gotten those 6900

I want a smaller cheaper G for daily use. something I wont mind getting scratched, stolen or lost. that's y i wanna get the 5600 n 6900.

but both also black. i was thinking of some bright coloured Gs but none of the available colours caught my eye. I realize I only like black Gs

smaller cheaper G is my G9000MS mudman.

hi guys

i am looking for GX56-4ADR King G-Shock ..

How much is the g king black red?
