I think it is very risky to buy there at Far East. They are connected to Sim Lim. I know because i have personally experienced it. They even called up each other to quote me the same price! THe problem is that some of their camcorders are made in Indonesia!!! Some of their warranty is shop warranty not Japan!!! BEWARE!!!They are very tricky....

True. But there are reliable places like Cathay photo at Peninsula Plaza. their prices may be a bit higher, but they do not cheat. You can ask for a eQuotation at http://www.cathayphoto.com.sg/

Note: their prices are usu excluding GST.

You can try John 3:16 at Funan centre as well, but you have to bargain.

Thanks. That helps a lot, cos its veri tempting to buy from there due to the low price that they quote you. It is lower than a lot of places.
