Overcharged

Last weekend I had some time to chat with a few of our friends on facebook just to pass the time and to get a check on the mails.

One of our dear friends came up to me and told me her ridiculous story.

Her aunt was charged - online, for RM1500.00 ++ per window ! PER WINDOW!

HOW RIDICULOUS IS THAT?

I nearly died of a heart attack upon hearing it as never in my whole entire career have I quoted a window that expensive - no matter how complex the design was. And it was only a normal curtain!!! If it was like a super glamorous Swag valance curtain, then it'd be a different story.

The bottom line was because they were Singaporeans and therefore they were seriously overcharged. Unfortunately, there ARE unscrupulous people who overcharge just because so. Ok. Shops who overcharge, we understand because they have to pay rent bla bla bla. But if you're doing it online, isn't the purpose to charge cheaper as a marketing tactic?

I feel so sad to hear that people are scared to change curtains because they think its so expensive! In all honesty, curtains CAN be expensive, but its only because the fabric is worth the price and the workmanship is flawless. Many shops go by quantity and not quality and we can't stress enough for our friends and readers to make sure your curtains are of good quality fabric before purchasing them. You won't regret this advice.

ALWAYS get a 2nd opinion on the pricing. No matter how in a rush you are. Ask us. We will give you our honest pricing irregardless if you'd choose us or not. Everyone has a right to know.

Please, don't get ripped off. I know we don't have a right to tell customers this! But it's true. Always make sure they treat you right!

Have a wonderful day!
