last time he sell the MG Red Frame + FREE clear parts kit for RM220!!?? Now is reduced to RM189. WTF.....i tot those clear parts were FREE!! Other shop sell MG Red Frame without the clear parts kit RM179-RM185 only. GREEDY A-HOLE. 

it looks like my example is being turn into complaints by you.. lol :-)

Put it this way, a certain toys is being retail by a local distributor at a recommended price RM 100.00 . Shop-A sell it at RM 100.00 . Shop-B sell it at RM 85.00 . So Shop-A sell at scalp price?

I found it a bit unfair that some complaint  about a mere RM 10.00 - RM 20.00 as it is so obvious that Shop-B is doing an offer but Shop-A is not and being branded as irresponsible shop. Scalp price should be at least double the price or even more .

and sorry, i am not in the toys business. but i do retailing on clothing, watches, artificial jewelry and shoe. On toys, never. As the margin for toys is too small . Collecting is much more fun than selling toys.

lol. offend not taken :-)

Actually, the comments by snakees nothing to do with being rich people son la.

He just state if you don't like that particular shop price, don't buy there la. Ranting about a few ringgit difference is waste of time la.

A good example would be Jusco, Parkson, Isetan etc...They sell Gundam at Litt Tak RRP, so they are scalper? lol. They sell at least at RM4.50 to 100 Yen from my last calculation....

I'm sure most of us here do as you do, we buy at higher price sometimes because we don't want waste time going back and forth the shop again.

Anyway, just my 2 sen only, no offense ya.

I think forums like these are good to improve the efficiency of the market and allowing buyers all around to make an informed decision. whether 20 bucks is alot or not, is not the point... point is, in the market place, we need to empower the buyer to ensure we all can make an informed decision and be happy with our respective decisions. Rather than regret, aiyah... 2 floors down got cheaper... then u will feel cheated and stupid... Why Pay More? if you can avoid it that is...

end of the day... power to the consumer... not the retailers. Economy these days not doing so well, therefore, it should be a buyer's market
