Got a quote for the Sigma 10-20 for those interested.

You have not been cheated if you know that there's other shops selling the same products and you did not bother to check it out elsewhere.

Please do not use the word "cheat" overly liberally. Selling something at a slightly higher price is what a free market allows one to do.

Anyone bought memory cards from them? Their TRANSCEND 80x Secure Digital 1GB Card is selling at $15 while hardware zone states that it is $29 cheapest. I asked them about warrnaty and they said it was one year shop warranty. On the case there are all chinese words, so chinese warranty?

I rather get kingston elite pro 50x 1GB at about $17.50... at least got lifetime warranty. :sweat:

That's an absolutely flawed argument.

Not defending anyone in particular, but there are both good and bad shops in SLS (good examples being Orient Photo and Alan Photo), and they have been honest stores.

Expensive stuff in one shop doesn't mean that they are trying to fleece you or anything.

Actually if the shop does not sell the product above the Recommended Retail Price, it does not count as cheating but of coz I see seen ang mo being chop for some stuff at SLS. Locals I rarely see.
