will you do this??

You cannot file a suit based on lies. Not unless it is a written contract, and even then, can be subjected to scrutiny. You can file a suit based on breach of contract, and verbal contracts are not always binding. Gentlemen's agreements do NOT stand up in the court of law. Not in Singapore, anyways.

Exactly. Plus, what damages do you hope to recover? All you can hope to get back is the actual amount you paid for (and you having to give back the faulty item), or the cost of repairing the item - forget punitive damages in Singapore. The cost of recovery (court fees, lawyers fees) will likely negate the cost of your item unless it's a really high cost item. Even if the other party is ordered to pay your costs it will never be 100% of your costs.

The small claims tribunal will not cover this unless it's a shop-sale situation eg there's a contract or at least an invoice whereby the terms are not the subject of a legal dispute.

And the MTI / CTI Metal was talking about - dude, please. It's not even remotely relevant.

Summary: Bad deal, got burnt? Suck it up, wise up, move on.
