The C Bomb

Ivy dropped the C bomb today. It's kind of a long story but the price quoted to us for our Spanish tiles for the first floor was a lot cheaper than the price on the bill with the tiles when they arrived. Ivy called the boss to ask what was going on and he spat the dummy saying there was no way he would quote such a price. Anyway, he got really worked up and behaved like a C and then refused to sell us the tiles even after Ivy said we would pay the difference.
從房子開始建造到現在,我們跟建商跟廠商也已經有很多次誤會跟爭吵
還好,事情都有圓滿解決,也算是按照我們的計劃走


這次又再次去挑地磚,是因為磁磚老闆跟建商的報價有誤(當然建商報的比較多)
當我電話訊問磁磚老闆時,老闆態度差勁,直說這不是他報的價,
說我們一定是問別間(心裡有鬼)
還說價格有疑問的話,大不了他退掉磁磚.....奇怪,這年頭不是消費者最大嗎
心裡想說算了,且我也跑去別家詢問過價格,應該是老闆當初報太便宜...
well...但是....不知道那個老闆是到底有多不爽
還真的把我們的地磚退掉了= =
所以我們只好到建商介紹的另一間看地磚...
但沒想到.....
我們挑到更便宜的復古磚,也是進口的
還不用補錢給建商耶(原本挑的復古磚要補貼建商將近4萬元)
只能給個讚啦!!!!




Upshot of it all was that we had to go to another tile store today to find new Spanish tiles. And what do you know? We found something very similar for about half the price! So we decided to celebrate by choosing something completely ridiculous for our front porch. See below:
這是我們前門的樓梯磚,也順便挑了
有點馬戲團風喔
我覺得我家完成後
應該會很怪
因為.....
外觀牆地用水泥粉光+潑水漆+部分漆黑色的油漆,但是形狀並不是級簡風格.....
室內一樓走鄉村復古
入口處又有馬戲團風格
應該六月底會完成

It's a little expensive, but is only for a small area of the house. And if it looks like crap, we can use it for a chess board or a picnic blanket.

If anyone wants to know where not to buy tiles in Hualien, please let me know. I know a complete C that will not sell them to you!
