Sellers surround us when we refuse to pay $250 for durians

STOMPer Ade claims a durian seller at Sims Avenue charged her $250 for 4 durians when he had quoted her $25 for 4 durians initially. When she and her friend refused to pay, they were surrounded by durian sellers who did not allow them to leave.

She elaborates:

"My friend and I went to buy some durians on Saturday night at Sims Avenue.

"The durian seller introduced some durians to us and mentioned that they were '4粒25' (which means 4 durians for $25).

"Since the price was acceptable, we asked the seller to open 4 durians for us. However, when we made our payment, the seller said that the durians cost 4 for $250 not 4 for $25.

"We were shocked and we immediately told him that we did not bring so much cash. We bargained and requested to buy less durians but the seller insist that we buy all the 4 durians because he has already opened the durians.

"So, we decided to leave without buying any durians but to our horror, the durian sellers SURROUNDED us and refuse to let us leave. In the end, we were forced to pay $200 via NETS before they let us leave.

"They think their durians made of gold?"

Sims Avenue between Lorong 15 to Lorong 22 the durian sellers are dishonest. They picked the durians and opened a tiny hole for you to inspect. They hide the rotten side of the durians.
Go to a durian stall that open durian fully in front of you and put them in styrofoam boxes.

Firstly, from the picture posted, its clearly is a Mao Shan Wang durian which can easily cost up to 200bucks for 4 decent sized MSW durians. IMO, Stomper is the silly one here. Hokkien saying goes, Jiak bi umm zhhai bi geh. which means "Eat rice dont know rice price"

Don't ever buy durains at these places! Complain to MOM because all these sellers are Malaysians working illegally!
