dude, thats an ad. as simple as that.
do you remember when i quoted that i got my FM2 LE at rm160+,instead of people ordering the same exact same thing at rm190? remeber how you rose to the occassion and said djin's shop dont sell pirated stuff, need to support since they did consul bla bla bla...remember? we both have rights to post something that is not illegal,but why did you said i was braggin around with my purchase? i simply offered alternative to the gamers there. 160 and 190. u do the math. is it ori? Yes.Is it the same package?Yes. So?is it so hard to admit and see other people got the same thing for less? Is it? I didnt even mention the gameshop that i bought it from as i am being curteous, since i see the same face taking preorder there, so i was thinking not to spoil the business. and the first bolded sentence, ARe YOU SURE JOHN? 100% ORI? and the second bolded sentence, I bash any unfair prices, regardless from where its from. GH, bernard, whatever.any direct hit from me to GH? but then again, if the shoe fits...


i was stating the truth. and i got a response.flame me i dont care, its not like i depend on this forum for rice if you are even active in PS section, you would know the history of RM210 modhcip from China, and how it becase only RM100 today, (that is also waay to expensive) you dont know? I dont mean to brag, but i was one of the Pioneers in PSClinic section. how many problems that we have solved because of sony's shoddy worksmanship, problems that if you go to a shop they will just charge you 50 bucks. little do they know, it can be done using a screwdriver, in 5 mins.so inshort, i know what i am talking and posting about. its people who are afraid of the truth that complains. rest of the community? they choose to keep silent, but they know who is right

what do you mean by sensitive John?the truth?what agenda i can have with GH? they didnt cheat me (obviously since i always study before any purchase), in fact, i think during consul time, that was the longest time spent NEAR GH. come on John, i have more things to worry about than videogames. its good this thread is here, if you know what i mean


Nope. GH have obligation to do the xclamps to the customers, I dont. DIY, Pay, up to gamers. if confident enuff, DIY.nobody stopping them. Not confident, sent to people, not necassarily me. a lot of people can do it.



Very sure. Why? Because I read. and i have few pals in the states as well. do you know they even take psps INSIDE THE BOX (without even opening it first)


like i said, i have no personal agendas. what i am not satisfied with, i will post in the forums DIRECTLY, no hypocracy here. i am only promoting cheaper original solutions for the gamers. I dont care wether they like it or not, because i am a gamer, i want to play with a lot of people. But personally John, you are a moderator, you are supposed to be unbiased, not taking sides. I think you know this. I am too a moderator in another forum,http://www.console-exploits.com/forums/ (formerly was ps2hd.com, an international forum) so i know what and how mods supposed to be. Being a mod is more than locking and editing threads,that, i leave you to think about it. Truth is truth. Sooner or later people will know.


I've made my points regarding warranty issues and I'm addressing this warranty issues to all the shops here in Malaysia (not only on a particular shop). I stand on my opinion and if others have their own then it's up to them.

We are free to express what our feelings are. If anyone is satisfied to a particular shop so be it.

The main topic of this thread is to make price comparison between KL and Singapore (JB can be included). I found that PS3 price selling at JB is way more cheaper than here. I'm getting one so I must seek the best price for it. I've been offered from RM1780 - RM1850 here and I found that in JB PS3s are selling at RM1500 - RM1750. 3 of my friends are also interested on getting one.

So if 4 of us can go there and buy from there, it's really a cost saving for us. The expenses can be divided into 4 of us (the max cost will be RM200), so divided by 4, each of us only will fork out extra RM50. Time is not a factor here, money is.

Since one of the forumer brought up the warranty issue, I've expressed what was in my mind. So it's not really an issue for me and my other friends.

So I challenge any shops here in KL that can give the same price as JB. So stop whining about any shop being defamed and start selling things at a reasonable price.

Cheerios....have a nice weekend folks.

perghhhh
macam debat kat dewan parlimen tue

salute to both of u

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but here is an important fact that i think some people missed out.

The GH warranty is the only one in Malaysia where you can get a straight swap from Microsoft Singapore if your 360 breaks down. But yes, you'll have to pay the shipping fees to GH for them to send it back to Singapore.

Some will say that you can do the same thing if you register the console yourself, call the hotline, drive down to singapore bla bla, but the point is that you don't have to with GH since their stocks are direct from the official distributor in Singapore. No hassle. No need for x-clamp repairs too.

Whether this warranty is worth it or not, its up to you to decide.

since the thread is about console buy in spore can we bring the console in without paying any tax at custom? or there is some tax for it.

coz my sis stays in spore so might ask her to buy me one.

This i need to reply because it involves- Rules & Regulation.

I am not sure what kinda truth you mean, unless you mean posting anything about playing backup? (thus the nuke of your previous sig?) If that's the case, then i do not need to guide you on this. This is not ps2hd.com, this is lowyat.neta & xbox sub is under my jurisdiction. If people are looking for "other type of information" they can always look elsewhere and you can have my word - nobody will care or kacau you.
That's the sensitive issues & why you always get fire from other forumer. Before that, it was pretty peaceful if i must say so myself & no matter which "side" people are on, they can co-exist with each other just fine & it's all about games.
PS : have you ever think why i nuke your previous sig and not this one?


I don't think GH is obligate for xclamp repair but they do have that option available . Like i said,
the Forza 2 incident you also know why it happens - the origin. People been discussing the price of game openly way before you were even active in xbox subforum and there was never any problem, you can even see a few sarcastic post down there. Pasar Malam thread is the best example to reinforce that, with choices given to people and there is no monopoly. If you see any, point it out please.


I don't know what to say anymore. You seems to understand the xclamp reference i am making & you do concur with my statement indirectly but here, you always contradict yourself. (that's why i comment about the xclamp fee to see your response. Surprisingly, you were in the same situation as GH)
Perhaps we are on different side thus the never-ending debate. (can't deny that, you are more towards modded and i am more towards ori) If then, i rest my case.
Random thought :
US Law != UK Law
Starbucks != Kopitiam

Again, if you think what i do is out of line you can always refer me to the admin or other mods.

er...
this is about price or about x-clamp method??

this is so way OT la..

i heard the murtabak in arab street kicks serious ass. if you go to singapore, make sure you grab a bite there! and those women in Geylang street....yummy! er..might have to bring protection tho'..

protection included, no need bring ur own

wahahahah
geylang street ehh
might be considered place to visit when i vist my relative at sg

THERE..taikor spoken!

dude, that shoot first questions later always fail.
look at what happen to US in Vietnam, in Iraq,

put down your gun... the truth i meant was..THEY ARE CHEAPER ORIGINAL GAMES THAT ARE AVALIABLE IN THIS FORUM whats the connection about the sig, bla bla bla...honk honk.

thats another story,i thought we are talking about consumerism here
(although i do have 7 original titles, not 100%, but at least i am trying, you know lar, my parents dont give me money anymore, i am giving to them )

[queue]cheaper original games from the MAINSTREAM CHOICE[/queue]Thats why comprehension is important. Delete my sig? I dont care, sometimes, for certain people its this little-little things that we think we can control that makes us feels good. Go on, knock yourself up l

[i]here is the car, if you happen to drive and it explodes, you are on your own.or we can send it to the mechanics, but its gonna cost ya another 100 bucks..what? your payments just now? no they dont cover it. warranty? this is the warranty lar, but have to pay to get the warranty..whats so hard to understand laaarrr!! by the way, those mineral waters i handed just now, rm 1.50 each. u want cheaper? go to TESCO or 711.


for the bolded sentence:
OMG, what do you think this 3 pages of thread all about?

i was never out of topic, i was giving information regarding a CHEAPER PRICE THAT I FOUND. other than that, all direct response from forummers regarding the price (regrets perhaps)
anything wrong in the uber RULZ and REGULATIONZ? If there is, pls, do point it out to me.

I am not a shop owner, i dont tell sugar coated stories to the forummers.I live in the real, cold, brutal world, no pink bunnies, no unicorns. I dont sell things that i give warranty, GH does. It supposed to have after sales service,u know..like..er...a..shop?so if i bought a console that fcuks up after like 3,4 weeks..i dont care how GH do it, they have to make sure i will be gaming again, free.Xclamps, return to Sg, i dont care. warranty is warranty. I send my console, i get it back in perfect condition. Play. happy.=GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE. personally i dont mind paying a bit more IF the customer service is good, that means no cheating, no hidden cost bla bla bla.

I think i have presented a very good argument here (thanks for the support, you guys know who you are)like it or not, people are waking up, realizing that are shoppers selling ORI games at lower price.The time of enlighment is upon us thanks for the chat. i am confident the readers here have the maturity and the intelligence to carefully dissect and analize my points and arguments.

Its nice to fight my on war without proxies, means i do know what the hell i m arguing about

Erm tot31, apa nih? Rasa dah mmg cukup clear, 3 months warranty GH cover and 1 year warranty by MS S'pore. GH is the middleman. Takkan nak expect GH bayo courier charges when the warranty is originally for S'poreans. Kalo console tu officially launch kat sini bole la bising, but it's not. Kalo nak sume kedai sini bayo courier charges tu, confirm la bungkus kedai tu weh.

According to the Kastam rules, yes you do. From my sources, it can be up to 21% of the perceived value. That is someone decides to check your baggage at the bus terminal or airport. But then again, you might not be checked at the checkpoint, so you don't have to pay the tax. There is a risk involved here so its up to you whether you want to buy from Singapore or not.

no lah... one control nia....

woo...sure or not didn't know tat ps3 selling so cheap in JB...hehe never notice cos i dont watch blueray movie ...maybe i can buy some and sell in KL, 1 unit can earn rm300 leh

my advise dont come to JB ...pirates heaven ...pirates everywhere nowadays, on the road, in front your house...everywhere.

talking abt Singapore, considered currently the Ringgit Malaysia vs SGD exchange rate, you can save more if u buy from s'pore now ....but not sure why some shop in M'sia tends to sell more expensive recently?

afaik xb360 games standard price in SG is SGD69.9. LE >= SGD74.9
