Backdated post. 

Once in a while, I suffer from iamus stupidus. On Monday evening, I suddenly had a stroke of utter randomness. Seeing that it was an Australian Public Holiday, I decided to surprise my wifey with dinner and a brand-spanking-new handphone, since her’s was pretty old and wonky.

I head on over to Digital Mall, PJ to do a little phone shopping. The first two counters made me feel like the invisible man. So I moved to the third counter. I should have smelt a rat, when they were so eager to entertain me. I bet they were smiling in their hearts, on the killing they were gonna make. The Chinese have a crude term for victims like me, “sui yee” or waterfish. They were like sharks smelling blood on me. I found it odd, that a particular phone wifey liked, was priced so much more than what I had anticipated, but silly-billy me stuck on to this counter.

I don’t know how they did it, but I was slowly swayed from one particular model to another. I ended up making the purchase without much hassling too!!! Must be the caffeine. Gotta cut down on strong coffee from the office pantry. Anywho, the phone was a Nokia 6131 since the woman fancied flip phones…but not for long. A storm was brewing.

My wifey checked online and found that the so-called original Nokia phone was actually a rip-off. It was way more expensive than it should have been and it was NOT an original Nokia set, which I specifically told the sales person I wanted. She made a phone call to Nokia and confirmed it was not a original unit. Not even by their authorized distributors. Super Wadafak(tm)!!! The missus was ultra-mega-super-duper P.I.S.S.E.D!!!

She took the unit back and kicked up a storm the size of Hurricane Katrina and settled for a replacement of a Sony Ericsson K810i. By the way, Sony Ericsson rocks mah socks!!! I’ve used many other handphones, but SE still gets the “thumbs-up” from me. Anywho, wifey squeezed them by their balls literally and I guessed they really really messed with the wrong person……person’s wife. Muahahaha. Serves them right. I’m a nice buyer to deal with, but they had to pull a fast one on me. Now they have to face my angry wife. Shiver me timbersssss..Arrrr! Where was I, you ask? I was stuck in the office working. Else they would have had two very pissed of people squeezing their balls. One for each.

Lesson of the day. Don’t ever ever con any person, who is a nice buyer. BUT NEVER EVER EVER con one, that has a wife, with a tiger’s temper. RAWRRRRRRR!!!~

P.S. The SE K810i is really one sweet phone. Wifey loves how it plays her favourite chinese drama serials with no issues and it helps, that it houses a 3.2 MP camera as well. But my SE W810i wins when it comes to annoying the neighbourhood with my playlist. Nyek nyek nyek ^___^
