" I can't speak of others but One of the salesperson is really really rude. I had no experience in smaller compact camera before as I myself only use DSLR. Thus, when I tried the macro mode on the compact, he sarcastically said don't you know you have to use the widest end of the lens to get the nearest focus? Very sarcastic I must emphasize. For a DSLR users like me, this is EXACTLY the opposite of the DSLR lenses. We have to go to the tele ends to achieve the highest magnification. He seems to be clueless about this. On the contrary, he thought he is the smartest guy in the world. Was this a competition? A debate? Does it make him feel good when he make other people looked like an idiot? It must be a brilliant new marketing strategy I guess. Do I dare to recommend this stora to other people. Hell NO!!! "

" Rude people! If you want to get scolded by an arrogant old Chinese salesperson, be sure to enjoy the services of Alan Photo.
I bought a Zhiyun Smooth Q. The next day, I came back because it had motor issues. I was scolded for not knowing how to use the device properly.
Sim Lim Square has always had a bad reputation for grey items, fake warranties and rudeness. I have to put up with this nonsense because Funan Mall is now closed. "

" What a scam!
I had a few alarms going off already when they brought out the calculator when I asked for the price. Next time I will stick to a place with price tags
The tax return was nothing but trouble and I spent more money going back and forth in a taxi. Every time they wanted me to bring something else in order to complete the documents.
Finally at the airport they told me that Alan Photo had cancelled the tax return. They warned me about shopping at Sim Lim Square and I will never go there again. Lying me straight in the face! "
