depends. Probably true if looking for johor MSW but the other types are still around.

 

yong peng area still had many durians when I passed by on Fri. Not much msw though. I bought red prawn at Rm15/kg (abt 1.1kg/fruit)

 

The boss at Zhong Cheng did say his season is slowing down but next week will still hv durian (but not MSW), He only said best if go on weekday cos weekend will be crowded.

Yah, I was told by 2-3 liu lian stall that this season will last quite long, they expect it to last till late Aug early Sept. But no mention if it is only johor alone or including pahang msw.

 

Anyway I think it will at least last till mid Aug, because I have a pahang msw buffel invitation by one of the banks on 4 Aug, and from past experience with this event, the harvest were always good. [:p][laugh][laugh]

I agree with bro @johnshl, it could be the weekend effect. I remember I mentioned here a few time don't go on weekends because price usually higher and stock lower.

 

This afternoon when I went to pick my those 5 pcs, usually they will give one free, but today he said week end no need ask, stock not enough so no free ones.

 

I usually buy on week days. Lesser crowd and better quality. ^_^[laugh] [laugh]

 

@carbon82, bro I think is weekend effect lor, try on Mon. [thumbsup]

Prices seem to be crippling up. A fren bought some MSW for $17 per kilo at Pasir Ris today.

 

Combed the busy Geylang stretch of ah lian - not those at back lanes one hor - didn’t see any $10 per MSW, only those $15 or more by the kilo. Even those cheap, no guarantee 3 for $10 or $20 were petite in size comparing with those 4 for $10 self-picked by Tianmo...

 

Also ventured to Aljunied crescent but the stalls there were running low on stock. Only saw two stalls at Geylang with night replenishment of stocks. The rests also like ‘while stock last’ kind of mode.

 

I must say all those stalls I reccee tonight were polite and not pushy while those at JW who were less patient except for that guy helping customers to pack - very slow and zen - we all know why...

 

Will probably go to JW again during weekdays.
