iRobot Scooba experience

[whypurplishblue]

how much does it cost? safe or not to charge so long?

Wah I thought first time recommended to charge 16hrs or something like that.
roomba battery US $31.99
scooba battery US $49.99

Both are non-lithium, lithium was out of stock from the guys in roombareview so I couldn't wait for them.

Let me know if your able to get it cheaper elsewhere

Hi Guys,

Vpost, Comgateway or Globalshopper would be best for this package? I’ll probably go for the set, house can be quite dusty too.

VPost has 12% discount for UOB cards, CGW seems to be the favourite and yesterday’s newspaper recommended GS…. If really GS is best, I’ll quickly apply a Citibank card, think they have one day approval thing…

Help!!! Item pack into super duper big box

Hi all,

I need some help here... I ordered 2 units of Roomba 560 and the item have arrived at my Borderlinx POD. But when they received the item, the dead weight is 12.04kg and the size is 46" x 29" x 53". Borderlinx volumetric weight for this is 198kg!! The shipping and tax for the this item comes up to over S$900!!

Anyone can help me on how to reduced the shipping cost? I tried asking Borderlinx to repack the item but they refused. Any other way out for me? to cancel the order?

KS
PS: I order the item via their concierge service.

how can the external box be so big?

I guess you need to ask borderlinx to measure the box size again.

 

[hansolo76sg]

its crazy even for 2 roombas to be having that dimension.

u should request them to re-measure and even take a photo to show proof. go google the actual box dimension of a roomba and show them the link as a basis for your request.

Sorry to hear that. Could it be that they have standard size boxes to pack it in, and mayb ur roomba's can only fit into one big box. Wondering if asking them to split into two small boxes would make it cheaper. Just a thought

 

[whypurplishblue]

Hmm for S$900 r u able to fly there to pick it up urself?

 

[seowbin]

not enough... need double, 1.8k

 

[whypurplishblue]

hehe.. just cant imagine $900 for postage. Bit ridiculous. So I guess if i want to buy 4 roomba from US via borderlinx, better i fly over n pickup myself
