Gratefuled Posted April 10, 2016 Posted April 10, 2016 I shop at Octagon for my stuff. Never been disappointed. There's a saying, "cheap is not good and good is not cheap" it's true in most cases. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my personal favorite saying is : Good...Fast...Cheap, pick two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that I mean, you can put two identical ladders side by side in Home Depot and charge double for one of them. Some people will pick the cheapest and some will decide that the higher price must mean higher quality and will buy the more expensive one. I've seen it done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would all such a person "gullible" and maybe offer him a chance to buy a map to a gold mine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expatuk2014 Posted April 10, 2016 Posted April 10, 2016 Cdr King aah yes I have only bought one item from them a security camera which worked fine for over 2 yrs until ants decided to use it as a nest !! I go back there to buy another one and well it was like trying to buy from 3 uninterested schoolgirls ! 2 were doing their nails and another was writing price tickets ! when I did get their attention I was told " havent got any try another branch ! " so I bought one from lazeda delivered the next day along with a wifi repeater ! Never again CDR King 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But their junk is obsolete, as is their name! I mean, who even uses CDR's anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I bought a CDR-KING cooling pad to rest my old laptop on (internal laptop fan broke). It works great - 3 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps I will have to revisit CDR Queen. I wonder if their bluetooth speakers are any good? They are cheap enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
