YUCKKYYYY Sungei Wang!!!

I casually went into a camera shop (couldn't remember the name). Asked for a Nikon lens cover. Salesman 'A' took out a seemingly familiar looking packaging and asked me to try putting the cover onto the lens. First Look, it fitted.

"How much??"
"MR69."
"what??!!!Huuhh???" I got mine (yes, i lost the cover twice already) for only SG$14 at Tokyo Narita Airport.
"Is this original?" I noticed that the inside and outside were not of the same plastic material.
"Ya. Ya.Original Nikon." By this time, Pa urged me to just quickly get it and move on.

Of course, i didn't budge. Second look... "How can this be original when this cover cannot fit nicely into the lens?" I was fiddling with the cover.
"Of course, mah. You've got your filter/polarizer attached."
You've got to be kidding me, rite? The filter or even the polarizer would NOT cause the cover to not fit perfectly.

Came salesman 'B'. "Oh, sorry miss, this cover not original Nikon."
"Your friend here claimed that this one is original."
"Sorry miss. Really, not original."

I put the cover on the counter and just left. What the %#&@!!!
A counterfeit costing more than an original! Not only that, 'A' tried to even cheat me. Talking about honesty in their service. Puiii!!!
