The online shopping vertical in Singapore has been getting more and more competitive especially this year, which saw the launch of several giant e commerce sites including Japan’s Rakuten, as well as China’s Taobao in Singapore. Other players in the online shopping space includes Zalora, SingPost’s online shopping site Omigo, Groupon Singapore, among others.
Due to the competitive landscape, companies have been trying different ways to attract customers. According to tech blog Ridz.sg, they found out that one e commerce company, Deal.com.sg has been dishonest in their marketing.
The company had listed Xiaomi’s Redmi at a price of S$228, and if you purchase the phone from them, you will enjoy a 24% savings. However, the original price of Redmi is actually lower than the listed price, which is at S$169, as noted on their site. Currently, you are unable to purchase Redmi as they are all sold out.
