Need a singaporean Camera

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Photography Singapore : One Thread

Hi

Ive contacted a couple of singaporean shops regarding the buying of a Sony DSC f828 and havnt got a reply yet. I was wondering if some resident of singapore, or someone planning to visit the place can take a trip to Sim Lim Square, buy me one and ship it to Austria, EU. (Naturally, id want a priceqoute first and youll be rewarded for your services)

Id like to see if it makes financial sense to buy my camera this way.

Thanks in advance

SINGAPORE

Hi , be careful of this black shop in singapore. "I HAVE BEEN CHEATED" $390 which cost only $89 for the vitacon lens.

i have bought vitacon 0.45 x wide angle with sony dcr-pc330e video cam and VF-R37K Filter kit in singapore at (song brother) 1 rochor canal road sim lim square #01-59/60. The sale man (name call Stefan gwee) char me for the total price of the three item at SGD$2614 including 5% GST.(TOTAL AMOUNT IS $2490) on 4 jul 2004.

The sony dcr-pc330e video cam in sim lim square shop cost about Sgd$2050 (GST not include ) as i tour around to ask for it price. The sony dcr-pc330e video camcorder itself which (song brother shop) charg me about Sgd$2050 (GST not include). Then VF-R37K Filter kit about SGD$50 GST not include. Which mean the vitacon 0.45 x wide angle cost me about $390 GST not include.

I then found out that the Vitacon 0.45 x wide angle in another shop at sim lim square (Edison electronics 01-43/45) cost only $SGD89 for the same models of the lens.

i have been cheated. i still have the receipt on my hand to prove that these three item cost me SGD$2490 GST NOT include.

As i look carefully for the description on the receipt it is written as (GROBARTING 0.45X WIDE ANGLE VIDEO LENS).

SO EVERY ONE PLEASE ALERT OF THIS BLACK SHOP IN SINAPORE.
