Why cannot Sim Lim Square?

Funan's Make Fine. Maybe online Lazada.

Or look for Fortran/t258jgn.

Other places you will have limited choices and/or worse prices for DIY PC parts.

For CPU amazon. Local Intel warranty send to Penang. International warranty also send Penang. Only difference is for international warranty you need to bear one way shipping. Which should be pretty cheap since you only need to send the bare chip in the clamshell only.

SLS is nearing its final days, went there couple of times and recently, its very empty and shops are closing early.

remember those early days packed to the brim, very lively and flyer distributers will stuff you with prices at the escalators

1. My nextcomp operated out of Sim lim previously, probably due to rental pressures & stuffs & got priced out ... that make any difference for you in your purchase?

2. The way I see it, Sim Lim does offer what you want, just not at a price point you would like to see. Doing all kinds of tricks on the price list to entice people to buy and tell them later the price is higher is certainly not nice. I hate them too. But if you want survivor, and do tricks to get businesses... what can I say. I think we can only blame this economy is heading for a self-destruction with high rental driving the last spike to a dying industry... and forcing people to buy it online.

And after the death of Sim Lim square & one finds that he cannot get cheaper price from online stalls for a cpu + motherboard combo than the previous Sim Lim square offered? Who do we blame next?

TS is certainly not the first & won't be last to encounter such situation. Nothing much anyone can do... just wait for the process to complete it's course and the new norm emerges...

Funan already confirmed dead. Gonna tear down soon and rebuild by developer.

SLS also gone means the end. Will miss my Bollywood and Tollywood music. :sad:

If you read TS's post, it's not that the items are unavailable, just unavailable in a combo for the cheapest 'combo price'.
