SEMICON SUCKS! I ordered a sim holder for a nokia 7200, the one that flaps open and close to hold the sim to the phone. When I went to pick it up they said there is a labor charge daw, labor charge to install the hinge?!?! I got the part and put it in in front of them and they said may charge pa din daw. I returned the part to them and got one from Nokia care in Makati for only 82.00 pesos, SEMICON'S price was 120.00 pesos. It's in the name folks, if you look closely... SEMICON = SEMI + CON semi conning us. Dati pa yan bad service.

Speaking from experience, when you buy cosmetics/accessories at Semicon that will just be FREE of charge like: covers/housings, batt covers, batteries etc. Also, they charge a minimum of Php 500.oo for labor costs such as: Firmware upgrades, cleaning etc. If you are used with them, I guess there's just nothing unusual with it, honestly speaking their prices are quite high mates, but if you frequent their place, better get yourself a VIP Discount Card (around php 290.00) for one year, will give you a 5-10 % discounts on accessories only and not on labor cost and handset prices!

@yogin - Welcome mate . . .
Just a follow-up here . . . The FREE of charge that I made mention back there when buying cosmetics/accessories at Semicon is that of the - LABOR COST or CHARGE and not the item perse !
