Hi ices. Can i have your ctc no.? I would like to book 3 stall from you. Thanks

I had checked the Singapore expo calendar and there is really this event called Singapore fashion expo.. But there are total 150 vendors over there n I believe customers will have more choice to choose. The organsier don't limit to how many stalls selling accessories or clothings n etc. That is also stopping me to sign up for the events as there are too many vendors unless you have something which other vendors don't have.. An advice for vendors...

oh no I just received another SMS from them about the event on 14 - 16 June.

Think they are really desperate to get their space filled up

Dear Fleamonster,
Thanks for the clarification. I understand that you are trying to help another organiser to "break even" their event. May I ask whether you check on the other organiser company profile and history before choosing to "HELP" them? I think a lot of vendors here already know the bad history of this organiser. Also, when you choose to "help" other organiser in future, please indicate it in your posting that you are "helping" another organiser and "NOT" the actual organiser yourself. This will give other people wrong impression of your company.

strangely, the ad in gumtree still carries the ideal solution's mobile number and the ad is there!

Hi Beztech,

Whether we are helping or not, we are still an organiser as we help to organise it, thus the word organisor is used as we still help to "organise" the event and being an organisor ourselves.

In any case, if his reputation was extremely bad, EXPO management would have rejected his application in the first place.

But not that we want to defend our "competitor" and this serves us no good, our mgmt has decided to end and will not have any future collaboration with Ideal Solution going forward.

Thanks,
Fleamonster

Flea monster,
Obviously you can tell from the chain of this forum that ideal solution is nothing but a scammer, a con man. Since you choose to associate yourself with company and people like them then sorry to say you are putting your reputation at stake too. I'm suprised you are willing to 'help' people of such... I'm definately a victim and can justify for that. Ices & now know as cabin have not refunded me the money since sept 2012. And obviously the case is filed legally with many other victims..

Need help from fellow vendors here. My friend did not know about the bad record of the organiser (cabin) and had booked for the event starting this Fri. Apparently, there is no update regarding the event. She has also tried calling the organiser but he did not pick up his phone. She is starting to get panic as the event will start tomorrow and there is still no update on the event by the organiser. Can anybody here tell me whether expo management allow organiser to pay a deposit and settle the balance of the rental space later on? If this Cabin has already paid fully to the management of expo, he should not have cancel it right?

History is repeating itself! so sorry to hear that your friend has booked the venue and is unable to contact the organiser, i think is best she quickly lodge a police report, good luck

Hi,

I think you misunderstood. We clearly was not aware that he is a scammer as we have many vendors who used to follow him and now is following us that his events do run although with high cancellations. He is a poor planner not a scammer.

We simply do not choose to be associated with a scammer and we are not associated with them in anyway. In any case, our high reputations supercede his bad reputation and we have a steady regular followers of more than 10,000 vendors and that is the very reason our events are always fully booked one month in advanced and we are proud to say that we have zero cancellation with full bookings at our every event as we listen to our vendors and we know where, how and when to organise and when not to organise.

We have helped Government agencies like the MArine Parade GRC Countdown, Schools, Malls and many more events and continue to be a trusted brand.

Upon seeing this recently, we have immediately ceased all collaborations with Ideal Solutions and I hope this helps to clarifies.

For those that felt cheated, I would recommend going to small claims tribunal. It will cost $10 for individual and $50 for companies I believe to file it.

Thanks,
Fleamonster
