My experience is almost similar to you. A saleswoman came and started giving my child attention by showing a colourful "educational kit" to her. It looked informative, so I asked her about the cost. She didn't answer me. She said I had to be trained first to make sure I know what I'm doing before buying the products. Again I asked her how much the kit was. She refused to tell me, pretending she didn't hear what I was saying. I also asked her to show me the complete set so that I could have a look, but she completely ignored me. This is where I got suspicious. She knew if she had told me the massive price straight away I would have walked away, so what she did she tried to make me believe that my child needed her products to improve her thinking skills.

Glad I didn't give her further attention. Glad she didn't get my money. But I'm going to be super wary next time!

To those parents out there, especially mothers with kids, PLEASE don't entertain these Grolier people. Walk away from them. I have a feeling that I met the same saleswoman that conned you. About 40-something years old, smiles all the time. Hair tied back. They also have other salespeople; a transvestite & a woman who wears bright-coloured veil (at Jaya Jusco AU Keramat)
