Beware of Scams!

This is a warning to everyone, regardless of whether you are Local or Foreigners

So heres what happen, my camera batteries were spoilt (used for 3 years), so I intended to went down to Funan IT Mall to get one since I were near there (i was there for Singtel Accelerate Conference, i.e i was not blogging ytd).

Before I enter Funan, there was a store nearby selling camera stuff as well, and the person quoted me the battery for SGD$75. I was amazed at the price that he quoted me, and asked him why is the price so expensive, he claimed that its caused of the capacity(5800mAh) of the batteries. Well, to what I remember, the last time i bought it for around SGD$30.

Then I decided to check around in Funan IT Mall, so Store #2 (I shall call them this way) have the same brand batteries but half the capacity(2800mAh) and charge me SGD$30 as well,thus I move to Store#3 they had (5800mAh) at SGD$65. Still quite expensive, I thought to myself, then I head to Store #4. The place where i got most of my equipments from. Ps(Its been abt half a year since I did photography, due to attachment).

And finally, I got what I wanted. 5800mAh at SGD$25.

So you see, even though you are a local, at Funan IT Mall(Highly Trustworthy IT Mall), NOT Sim Lim Square(Many black shops that charge at exorbitant prices), there can also be people who sell you things at so high price.

In conclusion, do some research on the market prices of certain product before buying them. Ignore all their claims. Just buy what you need and go. Often they will try to tempt you to buy more stuff that you do not need.
