The guy at the PC fair says it's 1499 for cash & carry...but since we both dun drive, and we are heading for another appt after the fair so will be funny walking around with the huge tv right? So in the end, we paid $30 for delivery...
I also have a feeling that the prices are still dropping so I also dare not step into the TV sections of electrical stores..hehe

Hi Samgirl,
I am using the digital box and my parent's house is using the analog box (black box). I think cost is not great...
I pay $4 for my digital box rental while $2 for my parent's analog box rental. The rest of the cost is from the channels tat u subscribe. So the total cost depends.

hi jasmine/lyn,
it was for 26" R71. For 32", they quote $2199 with $400 robinson voucher.
I saw it at Parkway Parade, but i think the offer is only during the weekend.
Anyway, did not buy lah cos I booked for Toshiba already ;P
Thinking of buying for my MBR one, but think twice, so did not buy. I think price will drop further... and it seems this is the first time i saw samsung price drop so much.

hi sofa owners
I hv gone through many threads on sofas but found most comments on where to buy them. Can anyone feedback on how happy you are with your sofa after using them for some time and where did you buy them?
OM has nice designs but when I sat on them, the cushions sank deeper than my 10-year-old mattress!
Like Evov Living as well, but HB says no head rest! Chic but not comfy.
Getting a headache sofa hunting! Our budget is no more than $1.5k. Possible?

Hi Elin,
I'm not so sure abt the specs comparison, but i went to look at quite a few 32 inch LCD TVs at the BiG Store. Saw Philips, Panasonic, Toshiba, Thomson, Sony, Sharp, Pallidine, Akira, Amos and Samsung.
I find the tt the samsung picture quality looks pretty gd. Price-wise also quite ok. Quite value-for-money.
I personally find Sharp Aquos better tho. And cheaper too. Samsung wud b my 2nd choice. =)

I think the samsung design is nicer tho. Haha, but my bf said "eh, duno whether can trust korean brands or not. looks nice now, but duno how long it'll last." Cos we find samsung phones really lousy! Not sure abt their LCD TV tho. By the way, Sharp was the LCD TV brand of the yr for 2005 i think. So we definitely like Sharp more. 
For good prices, u can try BiG Store at Habourfront Centre. I saw Sharp Aquos 32" at $1599 (free delivery). Samsung also cheaper there. Some earlier posts mentioned a place called Megastore, but i haf no idea where tt is. Also not sure whether it's the same place. Bleahz.
yah i know loveme
i was so smitten by samsung design & also affected by advertising lah (should not i know but u knw lah .. only human) but sharp image quality seems v strong. tat's why we r gonna check out tis wkend, after my chat wth kristen
thks for posting price u paid online .. it sure helps
i am still deciding now but i rem a few mths ago mahy LCDs were having promo of buy 32 inch and they give small baby one free (but of course the 32 inch price seemed jackedup a little more)
wont be need a dvd player tho' bec i got one SONY one alrdy & quite happy
.. hee hee

Actually, I have minor problem. My LCD TV has only 2 RCA point which I used it for my Digital box(SCV), PS2 and I have no more RCA for DVD player. Understand I gotta get Component wiring if I wanna to wire up to my LCD.
Where is the best place to get component wire? how much normally?

Hi Canaryanne,
1 more thing to note is tt u will b taxed for bringing the TV into Singapore cos the tax relief is not enuf to cover the price of ur TV. Check if it's still worth it after the customs taxes.
Actually i find the prices of TVs in Singapore is very competitive. I wun consider getting a TV from overseas. Parallel import sets from Singapore shops r also a definite NO-NO! The only things i'll get overseas r prob my bridal package or mayb my engagement ring.

Hi Elin,
How do u use bridal packages from Shanghai? I was more of thinking of Malaysia cos it's like same price, different currency!
Anyway, i'm actually looking for a cheap place to buy gd diamonds leh. Wonder where to go. I wanted to buy online from whiteflash.com, but trying to explore other options first.
I think Singapore diamonds and diamond prices sucks...
Where did ur gfs buy their rings and izit gd and cheap?
