Unhappy experience at Shine Korea


I'm so pissed off man!!

Yesterday I went to Shine Korea.. Finally after so many months!!

When I was walking outside of the shop, I saw this TVXQ Beauty Stick Special thing. I totally went crazy and rushed into the shop.

It comes with cards printed with TVXQ and a disc with their advertisement I suppose. I wanted to buy it from Shine Korea 'cause it is far cheaper than Mise.

Shine Korea sells it at SGD28.80 whereas Mise is around SGD69.90.

However, those on top were actually opened, torn, tattered, badly smashed and damaged.

I interrupted the sales ladies'(an older and younger lady) conversation after much whining at Gwen and Meng to help me to ask the ladies whether they could let me pick from the unopened box which my whining did not work. I whined for at least 5 - 10 minutes. -_-

I plucked up my courage and asked nicely whether they could open one of the boxes below for me to pick one that is not that damaged.

They refused. The older lady told me that I could have a discount from the torn boxes. I told her it was for my collection so I want a really nice box.

This older lady actually seemed like she wanted to let me choose from the unopened box.

This younger lady gave me this stupid attitude. She said "No, these 4 boxes have been reserved."

And she walked away!! HOW RUDE!!

The older lady stayed there, helping me to pick a box that was not that badly damaged. She tried to convince me to pick those on top. My excited mood was already been spoilt by the poor attitude of the younger sales girl. I told the older lady that I will think about it.

She walked back to the counter and the younger lady started talking to her again. Seems like their conversation is far more important than their customers.

That is Customer Service for you at Shine Korea eh?

Their attitude sucks to the core. Even NTUC Fair Price fared far better. At least when you asked the NTUC sales person to open the boxes below to let you pick a better one, they would do it for you willingly.

I'm so pissed!!

My previous Beauty Sticks, I ate them after buying them for like 3 - 5 months for fear of ripping the box and damaging Jae Joong.

TVXQ is something that is much treasured. How can I just pick a damaged box?!

Argh!! Never had I ever dream of encountering this after so many months of abstaining from TVXQ!!

I'm so pissed!!



Someone reserved ALL 4 boxes?! Don't try to kid me. I'm no 3 year old. If someone reserved it, would you leave it outside? You would have kept them in the store room!

What can I say after you tell me it's reserved? I only have 2 choices; Take it or leave it.

I regret to tell you that I'd rather leave it.

I shall take no TVXQ damaged goods nor accept bad customer service.
