“Do be wary of purchasing these sets from reseller sites as they may be listed at a different price than the product’s recommended retail price...” warned NTUC FairPrice
SINGAPORE — NTUC FairPrice issued an alert in a Facebook post on Monday concerning a limited edition of Hello Kitty Mahjong Solitaire Sets being resold online. And while the post did not name a specific online reseller, several of the sets can be seen on Carousell, with some even explicitly saying they are “NTUC” or “Fairprice” mahjong sets.
These sets are sold exclusively at NTUC FairPrice under its in-store Bonus Points redemption programme but have now shown up elsewhere.“The 152-tile Hello Kitty Mahjong Solitaire Sets are currently available for purchase exclusively at FairPrice Xtra only under our in-store Bonus Points redemption programme from 1 Jan to 1 March 2023 at $268.00 with 6 Bonus Points, or $308.00 with 3 Bonus Points,” the post further says.
FairPrice’s website also reads, “Redemption of Mahjong Solitaire Set – 152 Tiles is available exclusively atNtuc you just make sure you have enough stock to flush out the resellers so they can keep their overpriced mahjong tiles til it collect dust,” wrote one netizen. Others believe that consumers should be free to buy items where and at what price they want. “It’s a free market. If there are fools willing to pay exorbitant prices, let them be!” wrote another.
One netizen observed, “Those that bought at obvious higher prices deserved to be cheated for their stupidity.”
