MP3 hunt at Comex

(You might wan to read the previous post first)
Since the day my mp3 went diving. I have been looking for a new one.
Music is a necessity to me.
Thus I began scouting, and it so happens that Creative to have a national day promotion.
I was getting rdy to strike, when I found out Comex is juz around the corner.
So I endured in hope of getting a better deal.

And ytd was the day.

I went down to Comex at suntec in the afternoon. The first thing I noticed, "Aye, the route is different, I tot last time is use overhead bridge, how come now is underpass?"
(JJ's been living on his island)
But the change is most welcome, more spacious than b4 to allow quicker flow of human traffic.

The crowd there is quite ok(muz be bc is friday afternoon). Not till the extend whr movement is difficult. I shoot straight to the few dealers I have in mind. Namely Samsung, Sony & Creative.

Samsung was having a great promotion, they cut the price rather aggressively and have this 1 for 1 deal. (Buy a more ex mp3 and gif u a cheaper 1)
But I had no use for 2 mp3 (I'm hearing alot of "gif me la" comments from ur minds) -_-
Along the way up, I saw like at least 3 booths from them.

Next up, Sony. They are only selling 3 new models. The nicest looking one happens to be the most basic one. Their 'best' model is fugly IMO.

Then I tried looking for my friend, Wilson aka rabbit, working at Dell. Couldnt see him, dunno whr he 'tuanging' (another word for slacking)

So I proceed to my last station. They selling their 2gb ZEN + ac adapter for $129, add on earpiece EP 630 for $30. I saw at their newsletter was $149 for everything. So I tried to ask the guy. He dunno -.-"

So I approach the higher up. I told him wat I saw.
He say "Ok, I gif to u at $129." !_!
I was taken aback by the deal for a while, b4 coming back to my senses.
Halfway thru payment, then I realised I have Dennis's Creative card wif me.
(My brain really dead that day)
I asked whether the card can be used. The cashier gal "Err....."
The guy next to her say "Sry, we dun accept the card here."
Well, I dunno he smoking me or wat. Nv-the-less, I was happy enouf.

I filled in the lucky draw(HUAT AH!) and decided to look for my buddy once again.
Walk around for a while and finally saw him. He standing at a premium spot... wif no ppl.
Haha, a pro's a pro. (His job is fixed pay, no haf commission)
I chit chat wif him a little and ask him whr got sell dvd. (My dad's instruction)
So happen court is juz beside and they are selling.
I grabbed 1, peek at rabbit once more (got customer liao), wanted to take foto of him in action, but hands are filled. Then bb to Comex.
Here are 2 floor plans for those interested in going.

Hey! U there, dun curse my mp3, dun think I dunno. Especially u...
