SNES story : Went with my dad to sg wang to buy SNES. Bought everything for 1k. (refering to thrust's post the market price around that time is RM400. dang!)
PSX : Another RM1k. No need for the details. PS2 : Came across the infamous chinese speaking indian shop. Bought a ps2 for RM800 upon agreement and after paying, that b*astard include 2 cheap copy ps1 joypad and when I ask why the told me I need to topup some more money for an "original" dualshock joypad. Pay him more only to noticed it was only replaced with another 2 copy dualshock joypad. Total damage RM1k.This post has been edited by pel: Mar 28 2009, 12:49 AM |

QUOTE(Matrix @ Jul 1 2009, 02:07 PM) Same happened to me. But for Dreamcast, only a few months then discontinued. Same tactics use to con customer in Sg. Wang. If not adapter, they'll use modchip, bootdisk to chatge extra to the customer. btw, here's my story: Dreamcast Looking to buy DC then at Sg Wang, as usual gazillion conmen with the B4 and AFTER story. Usually B4 will say low price. After you paid the cash, then will ask you to pay more. For my case, the girl (last i saw her many years later, still in Sg...but a fatter b*** now), she tried to con me with the PSU thingy if i remember correctly. And then she try to con me charging dunno > RM100 for a stupid pirated disc for booting the DC (Back then, need a Boot disc to boot ahem DC game). I told her off and said i'm not paying anything for that ( i knew about it, in fact, i can download that if neccessary). In the end, she reluctantly let me have the boot disc for free...LOL. Must the the fatty working in the same shop with the infamous "Chinese speaking Indian guy". Last time they owned a couple of game shops in Sg. Wang. But last time when i went there they closed most of their shops and move to a shop at the upper level and all cramp to a small counter with the fatty taking most of the space in the counter. I was like  Good news maybe, coz from what I heard the upper level rent is cheaper then the lower level. Maybe they'll close their shop soon.This post has been edited by pel: Sep 13 2009, 01:03 AM |
