Is it a good time to make a purchase or should I wait out til after CNY?

[koshiru]

I wish to think that they suspect that I could be an agent from RSC testing out the AD on their discounts? Oh wells , darn, im gonna just wait til after CNY!

[koshiru]

THH @ LP is good but i can't say the same for the one at PP. KHH has this bo chap attitude and quickly handed me to another sales person to take over when a caucasian couple (appears to be regular customers walk in, I can definitely understand the SA's stand to stop serving me half way and went over to assist them ), in fact we are close to closing the deal but I changed my mind when he did that. So what if they could give 23% discount. Its bollocks!

[Oceanklassik]

Oh? I'm surprised with THH. Thought they were good. Dunno of KHH tho.

[koshiru]

Oh gosh! You won't believe the atrocious attitude I received at THH @ People's Park and Kee Hing Hung. No wonder people prefer to go THG, pay slightly more for much much better service.

No one know when the prices will be the lowest, but for sure it is cheaper than half a year ago, I would suggest buy those you like and hard to come by type if it ever surface.

i will wait, 3% more discount is about $250 to $300 more saving, worth to wait la, unless it is an limited edition.

[triton]

to me is economy is bad. any extra savings is definitely worth it. all retailers are banging on the fact that people want to buy for CNY so they are quite stiff on discount.

if you are not buying for CNY, then wait lor. as i mentioned before, after this festive period, we will see the rich people.

Its definitely good to ask the experts here, i am also a super newbie who asked tonnes of questions but via pm! My advice is prob irrational! haha.. but that's the way it is.. like Darkangel told me - "If you think the price is acceptable, buy!" That was what i needed to hear and i took the plunge.

Prices vary from place to place and time to time, so when is the best time and best place? Grab it when your heart tells u to, my friend.

Oh i assume you have done all that's necessary already? ie. going to ALL ADs to bargain, yeah? This is a MUST! Damn fun!

So you've plunged in and no more itch already? What did you get? Where? care to share?

Yes i have went to ALMOST ALL except for 1 which I will be going down maybe later or tomorrow Actually the 'chasing' is the fun part! I think when i finally got it, the thrill is no longer there....

haha! I bet most of you are like that , its hard to resist the urge! its like an itch that you are trying not to scratch! im not trying to have people here encouraging me to go get it, just want to see what's the general consensus here since most of the experts here have bought a couple of rollies , so they know at best when's the best time to buy!

[BryanK]

Its plain to see you can't really hold on til after CNY.. your messages revealed your anxiety; even have cash ready in your pocket!

Take the plunge bro, the 2-3 weeks headstart owning the jewel is priceless! And that 3% extra discount is only a speculation, maybe, maybe not?

[Oceanklassik]

Possible.

[koshiru]

Thanks for the advice Erm, I have already got the cash to purchase the watch. Its just a matter of whether its a 22% discount or 25% discount. I mean now its festive period, they could give me max, haha maybe if i hold on til then, they can give 25%!

[psee]

for me i wait til mid of 2009 then go and buy...now monitor the economy 1st..no use having a swee swee watch on wrist yet nose deep in debts...

Agree with bro feilong108 ... personally, I would monitor the economy and get in later ...

Just have to bear with the itch to pull the trigger though the watch may be in your mind all day or maybe into the late nights. Many people have been saying that pricing would cool off after CNY. Let's hope so
