I think some Imbi sellers on the ground floor are a lot friendlier now. Maybe due to competition from LYP. Problem is that Imbi looks like it's falling apart, so many people don't like to go there.As for LYP, I find service and friendliness levels at the majority of the larger shops to be really LOUSY. They look and talk to you as if you're an idiot and/or you have no money to buy anything from them. For goodness sake! I've been using computers since before most of the sales people were born! But, some of the smaller shops at LYP are friendlier, but the products that they have in stock are usually not what you're looking for, and I have some doubts over their after-sales service. I usually go there acting like a N00b, so that these kids can say whatever they like to me. I look for quality of service at the frontline, because that's a good indication of what you can expect should you need to RMA or repair anything. Like the majority of retailers across Malaysia, outlets in LYP need to better appreciate their local customers, and not just cater to foreigners who are perceived to be richer. |

for me the staff at Imbi is quite friendly as well, but the part that i dislike is they lack of choices..
last time when i went there to get my brisbane, so far only robyncom that offered such a good mobo like Biostar, DFi etc etc, while the other shop only Gigabyte, MSI, Asus.. |

They push out a lot of HECs. Btw, just for TS's information, Robyn offers postage for items, so you can call them out and get the stuffs delivered to you. Easy isn't it. |

actually many shops in Lowyat and imbi are owned by the same fellas. In fact, there are many shops in lowyat itself who are owned by one same company too. Sorry if someone mentioned this earlier, but I'm pretty sure of this

frankly speaking i like to survey at lowyat..take the pricelist..then if decide to buy, i will go to imbi coz
1)friendly and most of them welcoming the customer, as in LYP..they act like superhero 2)price different a bit la..some item expensive a bit,some item cheaper a bit 3)not much people, so can make wise decision..not disturbed by hanky panky sound 4)normally when buying with them, they have time to explain to customer anything necessary of the item purchased..this is for me very important and selling point of most shops at imbi.. they are good on this.. |
