koma Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 as above, the lowest i was quoted was $780 frm a game shop for juz the set. any other place with gd prices bundled with games or xtra controllers or remote?
kzone Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 came across something like $96x or $98x which inludes 1 additional controller & 3 games.. have no idea on the game or controller prices so cant comment if this is a better deal..
auratux Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 Two weeks ago, was quoted $750 for the set only at Paris Silk, Holland V.
Dixivisual Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 Thot someone called "Drexter" posted in the sale thread selling $790 plus one free game. Thot that is a gd deal since a game cost abt $70 - 90 plus. Am holding back till yr end then pamper myself or signal to my close one to get PS3 for me as X'mas prez ;D
koma Posted June 23, 2007 Author Posted June 23, 2007 found 1 shop in sls sellin for $700. he say local set any way to identify it as local set beside the r3 coding though all asia set also r3 and there should be a logo at the back identing it as passed by our local electrical agency. any other tell tale signs frm people who hav bought local sets cause im quite skeptical bout the $700 so called local set. btw any guys here bought frm drexter?

I had come across a shop in Queensway shopping centre that tried to sell me a Hong Kong set at the price of $700. I was even told that it comes with local warranty. I saw thru it that when I noticed "HK" and "20GB" labels on the box.

Guest jonlee Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 Well, can always ask them to open up to show proof of sony singapore warranty card before u make payment. I was also wondering whether to get from those cheaper source, but decided to get from gamesource finally, together with games and accessories. Their prices might not be the best, but their service sure made up for it.
koma Posted June 24, 2007 Author Posted June 24, 2007 1st shop u will c when u go the escalator to the 2nd floor its directly facing the escalator. Which shop in sls ?

Must be very careful of those Game shops at SLS. There are lots of cheaters. They usually quote low prices and when u agree with it and about to pay, he tell you the quoted price was without GST and all sorts of craps. They always like to use this method... when the price is finallized, they will ask "do you want to buy controller?" or "do you want to buy power adapter" etc etc etc. If you question further, they tell you their set comes w/o this n that. "You need to purchase these items separately" So BEWARE. Make sure you know what is suppose to be inside the box and check all items before paying.
Gaolow Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 For local set, this is wat you should look up for: back of the PS3. Clearly show the Safety logo and IDA tag Shot with EX-Z40 . Inside the yellow card. it not a warrenty card. more like information card. look out for the service center should be at Wisma Atria. Shot with EX-Z40 . nothing much on the box to indicate whether is it local or HK set.
koma Posted June 26, 2007 Author Posted June 26, 2007 ok thanx galow for the tips.i olredi got my set liao 10s to all the guys here for the advice ;) For local set, this is wat you should look up for: back of the PS3.

Jedi R Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Thinking of buying before the GST increase... Any advise where is the best deal in town?
dmateo Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 0.02 x 795 is 16 bucks. Anything that is currently having a discount ought to do it. It is afterall GSS...
