Interesting :-) any specific stores to check out? If ever, baka papabili lang kasi. So I'll just tell my friend what exactly to buy.

I was about to buy locally (one of the midrange Nikons). How big is the price difference?

Sorry to hear that.

Yeah, from the online prices na nakita ko, halos the same lang (~ 1-2k PHP usually). Kung ganun ang difference, mas gusto ko na ako nalang din bumili here. Hassle pa sa friend din eh.

not all shops but most of them will either give you ridiculous prices or sell cheap "Used" items... i remember a psp was sold there for S$2600.00 = P90,500+

had our vacation sa sg last september and dropped by the IT show. sobrang dami ng tao and the price is the same here (mas mura pa sa sulit) except daming freebies na kung bibilhin mo will cost you more than 10k so sulit na rin. just don't forget to ask for a gst receipt para marefund mo yung tax. also walang warranty sa pinas ang body yun lang lens kaya be warned.

freebies ko: electronic dry box, 2 x 8 GB sandisk SD cards, led video light, tripod, case, lens cleaner
