Action City Wind up! While customer Wind down

Looking over at a fellow bloggers site, I caught this blog post about Action City in malaysia which has been quite rude to their customer. Not really believing this matter, I went over to the said site and found that true to the accusation, the poster (a friend of mine) which stated a fact in a very casual and simple manner was rebutted by another poster called "Wind" which is supposed to be the owner of Action City in a VERY RUDE manner. Here are a transcript of the said conversation:

Zio

Went to AC The Gardens ystd and was quite disappointed. The preorder for the Elvis bear is close even though the website states 31/1/2008

"Wind" Reply

I got to make this clear!
Don't give the wrong message to others if you don't know what is going on.
The Be@rbrick Elvis 400% is actually SOLD OUT now!
We don't need to stop taking order because of the extra RM20!

Followed by another post by Wind

To those who wish to get Be@rbrick Elvis but haven't leave their contact at our store, please call the number below to leave your contact ASAP. We are applying extra stock for Be@rbrick Elvis and should be getting some feedback by these 2 days. Customers who had left their contact with us earlier will be inform once we got any news from Medicom. This should be the last chance to get the Be@rbrick Elvis at Action City.

Call us ASAP at :

AC1U : +603-77272998
ACTG : +603-22829998

What happened next was my friend replied this

err dude calm down. I wasn't sending any wrong message, nowhere did I say that the preorder was closed because u wanted to earn the extra RM20.

I just said the preorder was closed. And it isn't updated on your website that it was sold out. So how am I suppose to know?! And your staff didn't inform me that it was sold out. So once again, how am I suppose to know?

Frankly, I dont like your accusing tone that I am sending wrong messages.

Zio further replied this

Aiya bro, I also dont want to get angry. But he suddenly come taruk me for nothing.

Jst to show there are no hard feelings around, I am going to call ACTG and see if I can get myself on that extra order for Elvis 400%.

In return, Wind wind up!

If you are not sending the wrong message to others, then you are sending the wrong message to me. You had mislead me!

No one will like the "accusing tone", neither me! If you don't like what I had wrote, that is because I'm not happy with what I had seen.

WTF?
So basically he accused my friend for misleading him, in return he DID NOT apologize for his tone for being a jackass in the first place.

And to further make his post a complete ass of himself, I quote what he said, "If you don't like what I had wrote, that is because I'm not happy with what I had seen" Excuse me? The fact that my friend posted it in the first place is because he did not like what he had seen! YOU as the seller should instead find out the truth rather than ACCUSE him of being an idiot!

Finally my friend gave up and said

You know what? Whatever man. If this is how you treat your customers, then I shall not be one of yours.

By the way, I made the call as per your post and your staff told me there won't be any new orders. I told them I read on forum that I should leave my contact for them to contact me as AC will be trying to get new stock. They just said there won't be a new order as it is sold out. They didn't take down my contact.

In any case, I do not want to argue with you anymore on this public space. I believe that we should let the others enjoy this space to talk about bearbrick related stuff.

If there is anything you are unhappy with, then feel free to PM me.

On a happier note, I got myself the 2004 Christmas series and the Spawn be@rbrick. I am a happy man today.

Review: Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street

Unjustly sent to prison by an overeager judge, Sweeney Todd suffered for 15 years, dreaming of revenge and when he got it, it was as sweet as the nectar of forbidden fruit. That much I gather from the plot..

Managing to catch this show over a week ago in a preview, the movie was in short, "Maniac". And this is said in good term mind you.. When watching the movie, you cannot avoid from comparing Sweeney Todd with Jack Sparrow( CAPTAIN!) but as always, Johnny Depp is a superb actor. Being able to bring out the character, the anguish and the maniac look on his eye. Gone is all the swagger and craziness, replaced by the look of hatred and anger which best describes Sweeney Todd.

Without actually spoiling the plot, the movie is fairly interesting as there are a number of singing inside. Yeap, you read it right. Singing. In a Horor Movie... Now you know why I say the movie is maniac... Anyway, granted the lyrics of the song is kinnda off key here and there, the songs are not meant to be songs but are part of the dialog and after halfway through the movie, you would realise that the song will slowly grows on you..

The movie plot though is "twisty" so to speak. The ending is unexpected granted you can see it happening from hints and bits. I like the ending, although I must say the middle part of the story is slightly too slow for my liking and none nonsensical at times as the show reflects on why he started killing randomly ( ooops, almost spoil the story right there)

The environment is pretty cool too, although I have a bone to pick. Why is everyone sporting a geisha makeup? Their face are ash white and like every other typical bloody movie, the blood flows freely without any sign of stopping.

All in all, the only reason that I ( emphasize on me, I and myself) watch this movie is because of Johnny Depp, his performance is fool proof. The story is not half bad and the directing + the environment is pretty correct to the era ( to my limited knowledge). I would suggest watching this movie if you are

A) A fan of Johnny Depp
B) A fan of horror/Gore movie
C) Likes to watch "interesting" movie

Generally enough you can see this coming from a mile away as I am preparing to purchase my very own first PSP Slim & Lite! I am still apprehensive about the whole idea of getting another handheld console but the fact that my GF is now permanently station in JB ( Can I hear a resounding cheer coming from you?) I need to get some sort of entertainment to occupy those lonely moment where I will miss her

Anyway, mushy part aside, I kinda torn between different color type of the PSP. My gf wanted pink while I am more towards White and Lavender. What do you guys think?
