Poh Kong Chye's clearance sale draws huge crowds
-
SINGAPORE : One of Singapore's oldest goldsmith Poh Kong Chye was taken into receivership last month, after owing millions to banks and suppliers.
But it relived its good old days again, when crowds turned up at its North Bridge Road branch to pick up bargains at its clearance sale.
The pushing and shoving, though, caused some unpleasant scenes between customers.
It is the closing sale at Poh Kong Chye and it is drawing crowds that it has not seen for years.
Customers flocked in as soon as the doors were opened.
Prices of diamonds, precious stones, pearls and gold items were slashed by as much as 80 percent.
916 gold pieces were going for only S$23 per gramme, much cheaper than the original price of S$26.50.
One customer said, "I've been here since 10 this morning. My daughter bought me some earrings and chains and spent S$6,000 for the New Year."
Another commented, "It's very average, there are too many people and the designs are not very nice."
A third commented, "Too full, too many people."
The sale started last week and at least a quarter of the items on display are sold each day.
The stock clearance sale will be on till next month. - CNA -
