It has been a while since i last posted. Much has happened in my life during this time and i truly wanted to put it down in writing. Although time and again i promised myself that i would post something new, i guess i was just too busy with our new house and everything. However, i believe i can have more time for myself now that we have settled into our new house and have got a maid who is just what i wanted, doing all the cleaning etc at home for me.
Last year in February my husband and i went to Guwahati to pick up some stuff for our building, as many people adviced us to. The trip was tiring and exhausting as we travelled by bus and roamed the streets on foot, going from shop to shop trying to find cheaper rates of electrical goods, flooring facilities, bathroom accesories and the like. But, we enjoyed ourselves. My husband's brother and his family were there too. His wife is working at Mizoram House where we stayed. We ate all our meals at their house. And it was so much better than eating at a restaurant or the House.
The reason why i wanted to write this is because i want to record how we bought our electrical goods, which in a way taught me something. We wanted Havell's company and asked their prices here and there. But we could not get our expected price and we did not trust the dealers and we were so afraid of buying cheap and fake stuff. We wanted the original at a very cheap price, like everybody else. Finally we came to the real dealers of this company. But, they were proud and confident dealers and said they had 1 price, and no bargaining. The price was good, but then again my husband and had doubts about the quality. So i distracted them while my husband openened one box to check if it was real as they did not allow us to. And the quality was good. But then again more doubts, we could not check each and every box so what if they included some fake in between? Could we trust them? They introduced a man saying that he was the managing director. We talked to him and he assured us that the products they sell are genuine. I asked for his card and said that we would come again. At home i browsed his name to check if he was really the MD. Found out he was for real so the next day we went and bought from them.
