All Nespresso users,


Did anyone tried to buy capsules from overseas like the UK? Each cost less than 0.3 pounds and by changing to S$, only cost less than S$0.7 (using current exchange rate). By MO, huge savings can be done. The machines are also very much cheaper than S'pore surprisingly.

Have anyone done this before? Thks!

To unwanted:

Do you still MO-ing? There are much more designs and colours, not to mention much cheaper too comparing between the exact same design!

How much can you save per machine my MO?


In Europe is cheaper of cux.
I used to do that for the capsules. BTW they also have thsoe Nespresso Chocolates sold there.

But once there's some problems with the customs n i stopped doing that.
I think there's a max amount u can order at a time.

I was toking to my friend but when we calculated, it's about the same price in SG after all the shipping,tax,etc.

For the machines, i used to MO for the mates here.

Take note of that those which bears those partnership logo from Krups, Delonghi,etc.

Dun have local servicing at all. That's what happened to my friend who bought one back. Is not made in Switzerland. Those are cheaper though.

Only those from Nespresso direct(no partnership) can have warranty n servicing honoured here. My friend got her machines from Korea.

Is not realli a MO actually. My friend brings in bulk in SG for her company. I just carry along. No tax no shipment charges since it's in a container.

i no longer MOing i think my friend's office left a few for standby only.
Saving is about 30% off the machines.
:)

IMO those designs with Krups and Delonghi are very nice! Candy for the eyes..

Unwanted: Do you mean whose not made in Switzerland are not under warranty in S'pore? But how wrong can a nespresso machine be? I wonder. It might be worth it if can last for a couple of years for a hundred plus euros or punds, comparing to price in S'pore, costing S$518 at least.

Hi, just to check if anyone know where to get those cream for coffee that you find in restaurant (comes in little sealed container) or those half and half (1/2 milk 1/2 cream).

My machine in Paris, need to clean every 6 mths. Look like crap when the nozzles are clogged.

I heard in SG u dun need to cause our water is lack of minerals. LOL

I guess de-scaling is not so critical in SG as our water is "soft". Maybe once a year will do if you want to play safe. The liquid they sell is pretty ex at 30 bucks for 2 packs I think.
