finally back from 4 days of comex. it's really tiring. actually, the standing for the whole day part is not as bad as compared to 90% of the customers. they treat comex like a fish market. haggle and haggle for the price. ask to lower, give accessories, lower more, give more. really ridiculous. lol.

competition is very keen there. there are like 10 companies selling acer. so it's perfect competition. everyone has the same price; so the only way for you to sell is to give more or reduce price. very very stupid. i dont really understand this concept; why they want to do this pc show anyways. haha. yea true the sales you get is alot. but by the time you add up your total revenue, as compared to if you sold the laptops without giving so much stuff and reducing the price so much if you sell in schools, you'll end up with the same revenue. alot of econs involved. lol.

which is why; i doubt i'll do IT fair/ PC show from now on. maybe to others it's a good way of earning money. but sometimes the customers keep asking for more. plus you dont even know yourself whether you are closing at a loss or not. if yes; there goes your commission. maybe for me; i dont like these kind of extreme situations. it's really siao. they treat laptops like fish. buy 1 like can get 1 free, free plastic bag; whatever. crazy. the specs are alr so good and they still want more. lol.

after this; i will try my best not to go into a perfect competition market. very super hard to earn much.

i need to get over this period of shock first. lol.
