Went to SLS to look for a digi cam. The shop I usually patronise was selling it at $690 last week but they have since run out of stock. I went to another shop at a corner DSLDVC with a young indian salesman who approached me very cordially. I asked for the camera model and his price. He quoted me a price at $770. I said it was too ex and he asked me for my price. I said another shop was selling at $690 and he lowered his price to $730. I said no thanks but he flew into a rage. He said that the other shop did not incl gst (not true) and that they required you to purchase the storage media (again not true). He then told me that he was not interested to deal with me. I said to him that if he couldn't match the price, just admit it. He got very angry, said some nasty things and stomped off. I was dumbfounded but decided to leave the situation alone.
I then went up to the second floor and there was a big shop occupying 2 units facing the escalator. There were many tourists that day and they were checking prices. An old man with broken teeth approached me and the same situation repeated itself. This guy treid to argue that his price was the correct price but after our conversation, he knew that he couldn't justify his argument and that other tourists were listening in. He just walked away.
I can't believe all this happened over just a simple request to check for the price of a digi cam. I will definitely advise people who think SLS stuff are cheap to go and check the retail price first and and std equipment accompanying the product before buying from them. These guys act more like rogues and it was defnitely not a pleasant experience. Moreover, I couldn't get what I was looking for. It was definitely a very frustrating experience.
