Thank you for sharing your unpleasant experience with all of us!

Do you want me to put a new article in the front page featuring your complain with some comments of mine?

Lucky Plaza is fast becoming the black shop of electronics.

They like to cheat ppl using tactics and add on charges.

This will bite them back in their backside when the whole world knows about it.

Spread the info to as many friends you have….boycott lucky plaza for electronics…support their food and other shops but not electronics.

Hopefully they will turn over a new leaf soon.

I have a very unpleasant experience at one of the shop named "EZ ADVANCE TRADING ENTERPRISE" at Lucky Plaza #B1-10/11A which overcharged, use unsavoury sales tactics, misleading claims about products and a failure to honour refunds.

I asked a saleman of that shop whether they have a model of an electronic product.
He claimed that he has and after agreeding on the price and after he received the amount,
he told me last minute that I have to pay an additional 7% GST. I was shocked and just pay the additional amount thinking
that he should have tell me earlier instead of using this type of gimmick.

I later found out that the product is not the model that i am looking for as it does not have certain functions.
I went back to the shop but the saleman is not there. The two other saleman told me I have to wait for the saleman that sell
the product to me. I was very puzzle why the other two saleman can't attend to me. After waiting for a few hours,
i saw the saleman who sold the product to me in the shop. I asked him why he give me the wrong model but he turn around and said
that I did not mention to him that I am looking for that model of the product and his shop don't sell that model.

I feel cheated by this saleman who practise misleading claims about products. He is selling a cheap model to me claiming that it is the one I am looking for. I found out also that he has overcharged me at least $90 as compared to other shop for the same model in Lucky Plaza. He also refused to exchange and refunds.

When I requested to change it to the model that I am looking for, he told me that I have to pay an additional amount of more than $150 as he need to get it from another shop.

I have heard about CASE in Singapore and when I told him if we can't settle this, I have to complain to CASE.
To my horror, he told me off to go ahead to complain to CASE and he told me he can give me CASE address if I want.

I am very disappointed with this saleman which overcharged, use unsavoury sales tactics, misleading claims about products and a failure to honour refunds.

I believe that I am not his only victim and EZ ADVANCE TRADING ENTERPRISE has been overcharged customers, use unsavoury sales tactics, misleading claims about products and a failure to honour refunds.
I hope that all of you can take note of this shop named "EZ ADVANCE TRADING ENTERPRISE" which is giving Lucky Plaza and Singapore a very bad name for shopping.

I hope my time spent on giving you this feedback is not wasted and
I hope all of you can be more careful the next time you shop.

Thank you.
Mr William

The first floor camera shops too…but if you know how to handle them..they can also be bargain with…just research more on the product and pricing.

Their strategy always make you gian (hook you with cheap price) and add more $ behind.

I think is better to shop at Sim Lim Square as the people there are still quite honest. Only the second storey, those shops that sell digital cameras, the sales person are quite rough.

Well, I did not say all of them are crooks but only 80% of them inside...heard the shops facing outside is more better?

To know which shops is to find out where to get electronic stuff in Orchard...you don't get cheated for illegal modification in BEST takashimaya right? Or in Paragon? OR any other major shopping centers...where else do you get small seedy electronic shops that congregate in one shopping mall in Orchard Road?

The girl cannot sue the shop owner as illegal modification itself is against the law of infringement of copyright but she can make anonymous complains to storm (which I think she did) or claim she doesn't know what the modification is for and complain formally complain to CASE as a case of Fraud or Touting illegal modification.

In any case, she might never get back her money/her mother's money.

Imagine how much that shop keeper can make by cheating more people this way...holy THOUSANDS or Millions!!

The girl is brave enough to report this case to storm and make it public knowledge that such activities cannot go on.
