I lost the battle

I guess I'm not cut to be a good fighter la. Yesterday I lost big time. Not only they didn't want to cancel the transaction, I was instructed to return the Nokia N78 and they replaced it with SE Elm. In total I lost around RM500++. Sigh..... Anyway this is what happened yesterday.

When I arrived at the shop, I told them I no longer want to take the SE T715 and wanted to cancel the whole transaction. The seller said I can't do that. After some arguments (not heated ones, I can assure that) I said I'll take back the X10 Mini and he have to return back the extra RM100 I paid when I exchanged it with the N79. Actually he was the one who suggested it that way. However while I was checking the X10 Mini, come a lady and she was saying all sort of things. I'm not good in arguments kan so obviously I can't beat her at that. I hate it when people put words into my mouth and saying all the different thing from what I'm trying to say. I was telling her the truth but she keep twisting the story. I guess it is so hard to be honest sometimes. I was shivering all the time because I have never done this before. So in the end I went home with the SE Elm because I just don't want to prolonged the arguments. Plus it was 8pm already and I didn't eat anything yet except some plain water to break the fasting. 

I am so devastated with this whole incident because I will have to pay some huge amount for something not even half of what I'm paying. And I blamed this on my own stupidity. I can't sleep last night thinking about this. Although I'm on the loosing side, I guess I have learnt something from it. At least I know about the Consumer Act and next time when buying something, I'll stick to what I want no matter what. To see the this whole incident from a positive side, maybe I'm loosing that money because I don't do my job good enough. Tak berkat kan. Maybe this is to pay for my sins (kafarah dosa). It felt so much better after I look at it that way. Kenalah redha kan coz I will never get back the money no matter what. Hmmmm my hard earned money and I loose it just like that....

Although I have accepted this thing, I still lodged a report at e-Aduan. So we see how it goes after this. I don't think I'll win or get back my money but at least I should teach them a lesson kan. Hopefully there would be no more customer who would be cheated after this. 

For the time being, I will have to learn to love the new phone. Hmmmmm....
