DiGdUb 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2005 went to hung bros to get ety er6 today. noticed that the packaging for both er6 and er6i has been changed to a very big plastic encasing, about 3/4 the size of A4. last time it used to be in a half a size of mcdonald's apply pie holder shape. wouldn't this make shipping more costly and difficult?

DiGdUb 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2005 the listed price for the er6 is $260. the lady auto discounted to $235 without me asking. er6i is $280. i think the list price is for those paying by credit card. i think the moustached uncle is more strict no discount. last time i ask him e4c how much and got discount or not, he say no.

Yon 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2005 Thought you guys are quite close to hung bros? Why still term them as "the moustached uncle" or the "lady"? Anyone know their names? Miss hung and Mr hung? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kube 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2005 HAHa. Lol. I'll stick with 'moustached uncle' Does anyone get the same experience when you ask to test out? He get's a bit agitated...and then irritated if you audition for too long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lypk 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2005 Tips is to tell them you are very interested loh & how low can they go loh. Lol.. i think you should go the opposite way instead.. cuz if they know that you're interested and die die must get it, then they won't lower the price by much.. one trick that i can give (which doesn't always work) is to go there, don't make it so obvious that you're interested in the product, then quote a really low price, and wait for both partys to quote and quote till you get a satisfactory price.. else, just tell them that *insert* shop is selling it at this price, so if you don't sell it to me at that price, i'll leave... hopefully they'll call you back and sell it to you at/somewhere near that price.. haha.. picked up all this tricks from my mum.. you'll need it when you go to HK for shopping.. lol! Happy bargaining! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
