Do you know any way to find 2nd hand good deals, either people who are moving out of Singapore or people leaving a house to a condo. Where do they get ride of the stuff they don't want to move ?

Thx

Hi singans and welcome...

One question to help us help you - I'm assuimng you are moving into a rented apartment? If so, do you know if it is partly furnished (p/f)? if so, you'll usually find whitegoods are included, but best check your individual circumstances.

HTH, P

singans,

Please do not double post the same message across multiple forums as it is against forum policy. It takes up bandwidth for no good reason. Most people will see your post and most do not only just read ONE forum here nor do they want to keep rereading the same post in every forum.

Lots of people sell them on notice boards at the supermarkets etc around town, but it may take a while to get what you want. Lots of stuff for sale though.

PS, sure you get nothing? Most places here, including houses, come with fridge and washing machine at least.
