KWP Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Greetings, We all know TM's poor customer relationship with Non-Japanese speakers, but this here really topps everything I've seen so far: It seems Marui with their outstandingly un-ambitious overseas marketing for Non-Japanese speakers have managed to open their first overseas representation in Hong Kong without even anybody knowing it - what kinda idiots. I got there just by accident today after I visited SupremeCo in the same building and unfortunately they were closed already. I will try my luck tomorrow and hope to meet a staff to get more infos and photos. Link to post Share on other sites

Glenn Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Yay, HK is a bridge to the West, and I live in the West! Yay! Perhaps this reflects the "new" TM we've seen with the rapid release of the MP7, and the ambitious number of new stuff they've been coming out with, like AEPs and MAEGs. Perhaps CA/ICS/G&G/STAR etc pressure was starting to make a dent in their sales numbers. Link to post Share on other sites

neubine Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 I hope they open up to the US soon... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's probably not in the future as they see the US market as "unimportant" If they set up an office in the US they would then have to answer about all the US company trademarks on thier products... =) Link to post Share on other sites

KWP Posted April 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 April 1st was yesterday..? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, you must live in either Japan or in the middle of the huge Pacific Ocean, because it's 11.30pm here in Hong Kong right now and still the 1st April. Hey, no hard feelings right - it was meant to be fun and just another April Fools Joke. Apologies to all others if you put too much hope into that story. Enjoy. Link to post Share on other sites

Sledge Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 So, let me get this straight. The joke was that TM aren't opening another office that would still have been on the other side of the planet from me? Wow. I'm totally crushed now. Link to post Share on other sites
