    @thegreatiam15 boss sa akin kasi samsonite ang binili ko. dala na ko sa ivang brand kasi ang bilis masira. kaya kahit medyo mas mahal ng konti ang samsonite, in the long run mas sulit pa rin. may factory outlet sa IMM at changi city point.

    @bait0211 yup, nagtry ako magpapalit both sa AU at SG tpos nanghinayang ako sa difference ng palitan. Kaya kung kaya nyo i-maximize ung mdadala nyo (10k aud) going to AU gawin nyo na.

    Sa Junction8 ako nagpapapalit. Sa ground floor tapat ng DBS branch. Lagi mahaba pila dun kaya pumupunta ako pag lunch time kasi minsan maiksi. Pag uwian kasi matagal ang inaabot sa haba ng pila.
