Our recent visit to Singapore over the week-end got us scouring around the shops of Sim Lim and Funan Digital IT Mall. Sim Lim has been a favorite gadget mall since a lot of stores carry new and interesting gadgets where you can haggle for discounts. We headed off to Sim Lim Square on a Friday night of November 2 to look for the new iPad Mini that was released in Singapore that very same day. After walking around and scaling all 6 floors of the Sim Lim Square, we went back to the one that gave us the cheapest price only to discover that the first price they gave us wasn't true and has changed to $600. The other store owner conceded that a few stores in Sim Lim have that kind of modus operandi -- giving inquiring customers really low prices and then charge them additional fees once the credit cards are swiped. Updated: Was able to get the reversal from them and upon checking the copy of the charge slips, I found the name of the store -- Smart Connection - SI, Sim Lim Square #01-40, 1 Rochor Canal Road S188504.
