Daewoo Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Our trusty Canon Ixus 400 has started to give me some serious problems and I am lookig to replace it. I saved about 6000 Baht when I bought it in Malaysia over the Aussie price... I note that a lot of posts say that the prices are cheaper in the US than Thailand, and was wondering what the case was WRT Australia... I am on a flying visit to Th in Nov, I will only overnight in BKK on the way to Chiang Mai, so probably won't get time to hit Pantip Plaza... Where is the best place to buy in CM... Do I need to haggle hard, or will they offer a fair price??? How much should I be looking to redice the original offer??? Cheers, Daewoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonfruit Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I cant compare with Oz, so am really not answering your question, but i buy all my camera equipment in Singapore as its a hel_l of a lot cheaper than here in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daewoo Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 i buy all my camera equipment in Singapore Thanks Moonfruit... My brother is returning from work in Japan just after my flying visit to Thailand, so I could wait for him to bring it back if it is heaps cheaper than Thailand... Unfortunately I can't find much in the way of pricing on the online sites from Thailand to compare prices with Australia... I am only after a point and shoot, maybe the Canon Ixus 950 IS/Powershot 850 IS, so not a big money item to start with... Cheers, Daewoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
