hehe.. that's why i'd rather travel to kl,buy. and go back penang.. only tired a bit but saves few hundreds.
No offence. However, how much you need to spend on the travel?
1) Ok, let say by Air Asia, the cheapest one is RM80 return (with tax). Then, you might need your friend to pick you up / take the train / taxi / buses. No matter which option you picked you still need to spend at least RM20 (Friend option - one meal to him/her as they fetch you from LCCT) Then, you might need to spend a day in KL (around RM100 - RM300) or with friends/families (again, need to "thank" them). Finally, you would need about 2 - 3 meals. Adding up, you might need to pay extra RM400 - 500 just for the sake to go to get the consoles. Money to be spent ~ RM200 - 500
2) By bus - the safest one is RM72 return. I think this might be possible. However, if you want to come back to PG within the same day, you will be very tired. Money to be spent - ~ RM150 - RM200
3) By car - Toll, petrol, food, tiredness. No further elaboration required.
For me, I will still stick with the Penang shop, if it is not too expensive - by that I mean it's ok to marked up the price up to 10%. I need to re-iterate that I can touch and see and try the console I am going to buy. Also, when problem comes up, I can go fix it directly without any hassle like going to KL again or using delivery (which I don't have good faith in).
Correct me if I am wrong.
Thank you.
