the tv

ho hum... nvm abt the Benq. i went hunting for the tv with my parents just now. and they hopped over to SAFE superstore in geylang and bought the Palladine 42" model plasma tv. it was going for $3088, inclusive of accessories like stand and free installation. $30 for the delivery.

the Sound & Audio House within walking distance was selling it for $2799. plus $199 for the wall mounting bracket and installation. delivery was free. they had set the contrast of that brand higher such that the red flickers more than other brands on display(the model on display at SAFE did not flicker at all). go figure.

i must agree with their views. when we purchase huge/expensive electrical home appliances, we should approach the bigger retailers. even for companies such as Gain City seems to resort to underhanded means to lure people.
