    Back in the mid 90s, i was working here on the 6th storey.There was a food shop at 2nd floor, where there was a delivery boy by the name of Ah Zai. He would do drink and snacks delivery for the shops. When he was seconds before arriving at the shops, he would mimic the doorbell sound “ding dong” and then when he leaves, he would mimic the sound of a sports car vrooming away. He had a tragic story where he has to care for his old mother and an intellectually challenged brother, he himself is not 100% too but he is great at maths, counting money for change. I often thought of him and wonder how he is now. Hope he is doing well
    Sim lim square is now not what it used to be. Those times was a good memory

    There is a tip about the toilets, the building is a square with 4 corners there is 2 toilets at the opposing corners, but 1 of it is for Staff or the Shop owners only.. so sometimes i have to remember which corner is the toilet for public, else you run to 1 corner to go toilet only to find its a staff toilet than you have to run the the other corner.
    the toilet also is famous for no toilet rolls, they have a Main toilet roll at the entrance, so you need to take what you need before you enter the cubicle.

    Sim Lim Tower caters to a different market as most shops there sells electronic and audio parts for repairs, customization, etc, and you are right in the reason they are still thriving is these parts are very hard to buy from online portals and shops. Other factors play a part like long time shops having regular customers, etc. It is sad to see it's sister mall Sim Lim Square succumb to online competition and becoming like this now.

    the food court at Basement 1, there used to be a famous Bak Chor Mee stall near the entrance, They used to put a sign 'Add Noodles, Add Soup, Add Chili" no extra charge.
    some ppl take advantage of it, order 1 bowl and ask for extra noodles.. than have a big bowl of bak chor mee, and share it with another person so its cheaper.

    Oh dear! That blind box shop is so tempting to me! I will get broke if I stepped into that shop! I never like POP Mart figurines cos they have that cheap look, standard design idea and mediocre quality which I believe all the figurine designers are from China. This HappiBox looks a lot more interesting and the designs are pretty unique, although some series I have seen in Bangkok n Malaysia. Btw, 大黑天 is the one of the avatars of Shiva (Hinduism), known by this name in 密宗, otherwise as 大自在天 in mainland Chinese scriptures. I still keep my 3 authentic first-generation Game-n-Watch consoles: Fire (which is the very first design), Chef and Octopus, bought during my primary school days. They were the most stylio-milo toy invention of that time, I vaguely remember each costs $20 to $30 those days and that's pretty pricey in those days!! Too bad, all my consoles are not functioning anymore. Lastly, the Turkish food, esp that lamb shank biryani looks so yummy n affordable!!
    P/S: I have never visited Sim Lim Square before in my life. Thank you very much for bringing it to "mountain tortoise" like me. Kam Sia!

    Still cheaper to pay in cash, cuz the shops there add a percentage for transaction fees for credit card payments.

  • @briantan2963

    The merchant need to pay 2% or 3% to the bank for card charges as standard. But it will eat into their margin. It's actually against the law or bank policies if i'm not wrong. So as an unspoken rule, you pay cash, you get the price they quoted, but if you use card, they will need to add on the 3% charge. So always we go down drawn money to pay cash instead.

      That’s true. I think for nets/visa/mastercard, there’s always some charges for merchants

      Yes, this is the real reason why merchants prefer cash over credit card, esp luxury goods like Rolex watches n such. So payment by cash usually can get better discount from merchants.

      Merchant need to bear the commission but is wrong to get customer to pay the 2% or 3% upon using credit card

      @@clairenclarenceful That's not the common way it's done. They give u discount off the price instead. Meaning instead of paying the bank, they rather pay the money to u. This will encourage the customers to buy .. and also to come back to them again for future purchase. No merchant will demand customers to pay extra on top of the prices should they use credit cards.

    sometimes i miss the old Sim Lim Square with all the pirated CD sellers along the corridors,, yes its illegal but it makes the place feel more homely.. to me Funan Center is the "Goody" IT shop, all nice and pretty and proper.. a place you goto to buy proper branded laptop and desktop
    if you want to DIY, Sim Lim Square is the place instead of Funan.
    these days, these places have become boring already.

      Even Funan used to also have pirated stuff, but not as rampant as in SLS.
      Yeah indeed Funan was the "atas" place with more tourists, while SLS was for farmers like me. Both places have changed so much....and not necessarily for the better (Funan is just another normal mall now).
