OK, apologies for the jibes, but seriously, this isn't a new issue. This issue has been around forever and ever, and will continue to be around. You can't totally trust the MRs here - there is just too much "promotion" of certain MLs, rightly or wrongly - some names will come up again and again and again - Clearly la, Ini la, Hope la, etc. You do not know where you can get value for money. All these are nothing new and unfortunately there is no quick fix solution. You can't do an ISO for this industry. So, as I always say, try at your own risk - how a ML treats another brother does not mean you will be treated the same way. There is no right price - if you think you can afford it, go for it and don't think too much about getting value for money. Think of it like buying 4D/ToTo lor...if you strike good but if your number doesn't come out, then too bad lor...better luck next time.

To be honest, Forbes, I found your point of view very disturbing. It seems you are suggesting when there is a problem, when there is obvious manipulation and exploitation, we shouldn't right the wrongs. We can't go against the establishment.
Instead, you are suggesting we should either turn the other way and pretend it doesn't exist. Or worse, roll over and let them walk over us.
When there is obvious wrongs, whether it's ML prices, human rights issues, political mistreatment, oppression... any injustice .... we must voice out!!! Esspecially if it has been happening forever and ever. Especially when it falls on deaf ears - the voices must then be even louder! You can't just give up and take the crap thrown at you. We as people must stand up and be counted, even though the odds are stacked up against us. Because right is right, and wrong is wrong.
And you know, sometimes, our voices are hear.... wish now $110...
Cheers
PS. Its not just about the price.... it's about principles, the resilient spirit, the character.
There is a line in the movie 300 (I think). The essence of which I hope to practice... "I'd rather die on my feet then to live on my knees." hehehehe
