  Went down there yesterday to buy a 1GB SD card. When I enquired for the price of the card, that bloody person behind the counter ignored me. So I asked again and he told me " you really buying or not?" Then he take the product and chucked it in front of me.
  
  KNN! What kind of attitude is this? At least those chinese shops give me better service lor.... Cant help but feel that the guy was being racist.

  SLS: Lousy service but slightly cheaper price.
  Funan: Good service but slightly more expensive.
  
  So I rather choose Funan. They treat me like a boss. Over @ SLS, they treat me like a dirt.

  yah yah.. maybe sgforums can start a list of blacklisted shops with real experiences..
• nightzip

  that would be nice, but be careful, as they can charge us for maligning or spoiling their reputations if the allegations are not substantiated by evidence.
  
  So i tot just the initials or the floor level of the shop in SLS will do.
