i just got 100+ prints from fotohub and i find that the colours are about the same from singapore colour labs prints. which is much cheaper
just that fotohub uses royal paper

I tried both, they are similar. One thing to note is that they might be similar to what you get from SG Colour, but at least these pro labs are consistently good. SG Colour is sometimes good, sometimes lousy, as reported here. ;p

Anyone tried the one at Toa Payoh Interchange before? It's beside the POSBank ATMS.

Feedback, anyone?

Not just that, I sent in my photos in sRGB color space and my home comp monitor is using sRGB color space...when the photos were out, they matched those seen on the LCD perfectly.

On their good days, maybe not. But on their bad days, you really see the difference. I've seen too many complaints about SG Colour here already. Stick with 1 or 2 lab, get to know the people there well. It will pay off.

That $0.15 is really nothing. I know it adds up, but your equipment is already way more than that. Like I said before, if you value your shots, don't scrimp on printing. If you do, and get bad results, well, it's your choice.

Send them the digital file, ask them to print themselves.
