Does this 2 vacuum looks the same?

[Gary88]

Hi all, my friend just purchased a vacuum for $3000 plus, similar to Rainbow / Delphin that kind of machine. But few days ago he google and he saw his $3000 plus machine is being sold at 1600 Turkish lira in Turkey, that's about $1000 sg only. Do you all think these 2 machine are the same from the link, though brand names are different, I see similarity 90%.

Same then how? Ask for refund? Order from Turkey? Probably the same thing with different branding and all came out of the same factory in China.

 

Don't forget we are most expensive city in the world, so must pay accordingly.

A lot of his posts are 1-2 word posts or one emoticon type.

This is his first long post and about such a vacuum cleaner. I suspect marketing / anti-competitive marketing, but that's just my opinions. Maybe I'm just suspicious.

 

Anyway, Delphin / Rainbow / 3K - 4K vacuum cleaners, most of the price that the consumer pays is for the sales / distribution / costs and profits for the bosses. Been reading up two long threads on another forum about such things. =X

the machine probably cost $100 to manufacture.

Probably RMB 300 on Taobao....Care to post a photo so we can try to search on TB?

 

This year and age, I am amazed there are still people buying 2000-3000 dollars vacuum cleaners from travelling salesman!

These products are OEM and can be labelled under different brands?

[Ahseng]

After their demo I was really tempted. But the thought of 3000sgd leaving my wallet was too painful.

Maybe no sales for few months, you never give him $10 for dinner?

[Kangadrool]

If you don't want to buy, they will beg you to sign up for their cleaning package as well.

 

Please don't invite them in if you haven't

 

Your house is your house. Don't need to let strangers in.

Do not want to lose my marbles but anyway it was a demo for a dry vacuum, bro!

[Vhtfhwlego]

Your friend buy the vacuum thinking it's able to clean the house.

The question will be, who will wash the damn thing afterwards?

 

Many user buy already have no patience to wash & end up not using.

If you have no intention of buying, dun give the sales guy a Foot-in-the-door.

it doesn't matter whether the 2 products are similar as he had already purchased it..what he's feeling is most likely buyer's remorse
