Mission Achieved!!!  We didn't upgrade anything just bought extra 2 effect photos @ HKD 178 each!  Total comes to HKD 356~~

 

overall...........  a bit disappointed coz i expect too much...  hahhaha  dang...  i plan to give u some money but u dun want it...  helpless~~  hahaha

 

i believe i gonna struggle like crazy and stay till very late deciding which pics to choose...  but the fact is we leave way earlier than i thought.  i stayed there for an hr or so only~  and think of how to bargain and stay strong with our expected budget (HKD 1500 - 2000)...  but end up we chose to buy 2 extra pics only for HKD 356!!  wohOHoho  yeahhhh  no need to waste money~~~~~~~~~~~

 

the result is...............  we can HARDLY find 12 pics out of 96 pics!!!  we're like ok...  glanced thru all the pics at once and chose the ones we like the most then started to eliminate......  we can only picked 5 pics out of 96 pics for the first time!!!  then 2nd, 3rd, 4th time.........  we still couldn't pick any good ones...  holy...........  we had a tough time to choose 12 pics...........  i am so sure we took more than 96 pics coz the ones i like wasn't in that file and our photographer showed us all the pics at the end of our photo shooting!!! 

 

then the sales came and started to sell...  asked us to buy 8 pics more to make a album but the problem is we couldn't find 8 pics we like!  and i said...  are there some pics missing and she said yeah coz u guys blinked eyes!  i was like...  huh?!?!  oh well...  then she said oh yeah so tried to see if there's any pics u like and i can give u discount...  bla bla bla...  and once u stepped out of the door and regret u didn't buy this and that we won't let u...  bla bla bla...  (i was like...  i won't lor~~)  then told us that our photographer made some effect pics (size: 4" x 5") too...  guess what?!?!  he used the ones i like to make effect!!  the effect pics cost HKD 178 each and there's 4 effect pics in total!!!  holy crab...  they did that on purpose coz they wanted us to pay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ended up we chose 2 effect pics...  the effect pics either add frame/border or combine 2-3 pics in 1 page...  but the problem is we dun like the frame/border and for the combined pics, 1 pic is ok and the rest isn't................  shit!!  but we can't choose those effect pics without "effect"...  wtf?!? 

 

she offered... 

HKD 1228 to make the 12 pics in CDR + edited

HKD 178 for additional pics (included the effect pics) + not edited

HKD 2028 for an album for 20 pics (12 pics + additional 8 pics) + edited

HKD 680 for a 16" x 20" frame

 

1. we dun plan to make an album

2. we dun wanna waste money to buy extra pics we dun like

3. it's cheaper to scan outside and HKD 1228 to edit pics...  too expensive

4. it's cheaper to buy the frame outside too!! 

  

 

hk style is really not my cup of tea!  my photographer cannot catch the scenes and he took those "classic standard" type of pics~  gosh...........  most probably coz we were getting bored of the scenes...  u know...  those scenes are already "broken" (seen too much from others' albums)...  we're like ermmm.. skipped!  and funniest part is..  we took a pic in the "pumkin car" but the edge of the "pumkin car" being cut off??  ermmm...  meh si???

 

need to wait 3 months for the output...

booked fitting at 3:30pm so took 1/2 day off in the afternoon.  left office at 1pm and met baby at admiralty station, ate lunch at City Walk Festival and headed for our fitting...  ummmmmmmmmm  chose 2 out of 5 wedding gowns...  whole fitting progress used 30 mins only!  so fast...    then asked me to fill in the rating for the company and started talking about the package..  this is the craziest part!  we had to made the decision whether we gonna upgrade the package now!!    then i said "ha?!  why can't i decide after photo shooting?  what if we don't satisfy about it?"  i mean people will upgrade if the pictures turn out nice...  seems like they're not confident with their photo shooting skills or something.....  that's funny!!!  then the server said "oh..  no need to worry..  we have satisfaction warranty...  if u're not satisfied about it, we will retake...  if you decide not to upgrade now, we'll charge you by each photo you decide to add after photo shooting."  what the hell?!?!  and she said when u guys did the booking, our staff should tell you about this so just as a reminder...  we were like "she didn't mention anything about money!!!"  whatever~ 

 

then went over the "terms & condition + pay list"...............  pay extra money for flower ball during photo shooting if we need...  make up fee for groom = $100...  eye lashes = $90 x 2...  bla bla bla...  my gosh...    but these are inevitable...  so must paid them...

 

of coz we said "no, we're not gonna upgrade!"  doesn't make any sense...  ummmmmmmmmmmmm

 

what kind of sales strategy is this??

 

Wan Chai -> Kowloon Tong -> Wan Chai -> Kowloon Tong -> TST -> Wan Chai

 

geeze.......  arrived Kowloon Tong and on our way to 羅浮宮, stupid hobee said "let me look at the address first...  search ha search ha..  he said he couldn't find the coupon!!!!"  i was like...  u kidding me!??!  then i searched his bag and really couldn't find the coupon!!!!!!!!  he said maybe left it at my house coz he may put the coupon somewhere else!!!!!!!!!!!!!  !@#$%^&*()*&^%$#@$%^&*(    then i was like.. WHAT?!?!  I TOLD U TO KEEP IT TOGETHER WITH THE RESTAURANT RECEIPT THEN U WON'T FORGET LA....!!!  WHY U TOOK IT OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  [need to present the coupon and the restaurant receipt for booking]  geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezee..  it was around 3:30pm then i was like "dim ah...............  should we go back home to get it?????????????"  stupid hobee said "yes..."  then i said "then come back to kowloon Tong again?!"  and he said "yes........"  GREAT...  then went back home and the coupon was found in the plastic bag given during wedding expo..........  i was like "dim arrrrrrrrrrr why u put it there!!!  i was gonna throw away this bag yesterday coz i got too many catalogues!!!"  so lucky i didn't!!!!!!!!!!!  my gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  then went back to 羅浮宮 at Kowloon Tong.............  and it's 4:30pm...  geezeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...  the lady said earliest booking will be on February...  gosh...  wondering if we don't come back to 羅浮宮 today, probably we couldn't even book and waste the coupon!!! 

 

I should be the keeper for all the valuables from now on!!!!!!!!!!

Then we look at the albums again...  hahahah  hobee said he saw a pic for Andy Lau and Michelle Lee 10 yrs ago at the bar...  10 yrs later the bar is still here!!  what the........  hahahahha  and he said..  so bored..  the scenes...  i saw it all from my friends/colleagues' albums...  so probably we won't upgrade the package...  just go out and buy the frames instead...
