service excellence by foreign talent.

 

accurate transcript of telephone conversation.

me, "hi can i please get a price check on the following helmets? xxx & yyy"

she, "better if u visit our showroom"

me, "i live on the other end of singapore - before i decide to come down, i would like to know the price"

she, "better if u visit out showroom and speak to my boss to get more info"

me, "i just need the price"

she, "xxx around 1k"

me, "what about the other helmet yyy?"

she, "better if u visit our showroom. ok, i'm bz" *hangs up*

 

from an up and coming bike accessories shop in the west side. hint hint, they appeared in a newspaper article not too long ago giving their opinion on non-psb approved helmets.

 

by contrast, i want to compliment motoworld - they had excellent c/s - not only gave me the current price, but explained in detail the differences between their various helmets/jackets.

the lady must either be damn lazy or don't care about her rice bowl..even if busy, can always tell u to call back in like 15mins...but in this case she doesnt bother...

other accessories shops must indirectly thank the above mentioned shop. its because of the above mentioned shop that indirectly makes consumer appreciates the services provided by others...

[deckard]

she is under orders not to reveal the price, she may think you are competitor

[zeke uchiha]

that might be true...but can also mark up the price if she wants to tell u roughly oso wat...so got phone no. for what...furthermore its to save the time n hassle if TS from the other end travelling from east to west... and i dont see the reason to hang up too...

Maybe because the prices varies according to your face. You go down let the boss take a "LOOK" at you, the he decide how much discount to give you. Hence the price cannot say.

Boycott those shops without transparent prices!
