i found both chateks and 5 stones at the SKP shop in Marine Parade. Chatek is with groovy pulsing light and all for $2.50, and 5-stones were for $1.40. The 5 stones were filled with little stone which leave a little trail of sandy dust when they hit the floor - so not ideal. Got the chateks instead and am now off to the class party with enough for all.

Tks again all.

OK I walked past the Marsiling shop just now & saw the prices. Each chapteh is $1. There's a more expensive bigger type of chapteh, costing $2.50 each. A set of 5 stones is $1.40. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the update with prices, kams! 😄

I’ve been told that there might be a shop at Marine Parade selling them. Will try this, and if I have no luck, will go to the Marsiling MRT shop. Tks for the info, and for offering to go chk for prices. May ask if you could do this if I have no luck on my end.

Help. I need to buy these old time favourites - about 20 of each. Does anyone know what they cost today, and where I could get them from?


Err.. I saw it at a corner shop at Marsiling. It is a corner shophouse (near to Singapore Pools) opposite Marsiling MRT.. but that was abt 2 months back.. that shop sells all different types of stuff for kids' party, kites, toys and plastic wares..

But sorry can't remember how much they charge for the chateks and five stones..

Yep, saw some chaptehs & 5 stones at the shop that RRMummy was talking abt. It's at Blk 305 Woodlands St 31, opposite Angelin's Baby & Child Clinic. Can chk for u the prices if u want coz it's near my hse.

Of course, it’ll be pricier there but it’s of good quality. They come in a nice drawstring pouch.

Might make a trip out to Changi Village. I remember seeing 5 stones for sale - even as a child. It is hard to imagine seeing them in a shop today.

I didn’t check out the prices though, should be around $1 bah. Maybe can get bulk discount since you are getting 20pcs?

chatek I don't know... hard to find chicken feathers these days. But 5 stones were made, not bought, during our days. Cloth, green beans, and deft fingers.
