Prefer Lazada since you can pay using credit card, there's free shipping and no hassle return policy (with free shipping also). Tried to purchase at Kimstore before but they were asking for two IDs and proof of payment. What do they need IDs for when were paying cash? Kimstore doesn't always give the best prices, DBGadgets, HotGadgets and Gamextremephils at ******* sometimes gives lower prices or they can price match Kimstores price with lesser red tape.

I personally think that they've become too popular for their own good. They're practically dealing with disty-like merchandise volumes with staff sufficient only for a small home business.

Anyone tried their aftersales service? Got a phone and a camera from them. No reciepts issued though...

There's about a 3-4k price diff with the item i want to buy...but the aftersales worries me as i have crappy luck with buying gadgets online. i think i'll just wait it out a bit.

fyi, checked Lazada, apparently they do have certain items that are a bit closer to Kimstore's pricing...but there's a note that the item is "imported"...my warranty spidey senses are tingling

Grabe ang Kimstore sa aftersales, walang paki sayo. If ever one day I'll encounter another lemon gadget and bad aftersales service from them, I'll definitely do something about it.

A lot of the items in Kimstore are also "imported", usually the ones that are priced much lower than mall price. Good luck with Kimstore warranty on service and labor, it's not like they have in-house repair technicians.
