Please Recommend A Camera Website For Thailand Delivery

[Adagio]

I know what camera I want but I live in a small island in the gulf and don't want to travel to buy it. I had my last laptop delivered here without a problem, so I hoped someone would be able to recommend a good online camera store.

Unfortunately I read no Thai so some degree of English would be necessary, though I know what I want and could probably get a Thai friend to help.

Thanks for that, it's what I'm looking for but they don't sell the particular camera I want unfortunately, probably as they are a more general retailer as you mentioned.

I have checked out all these sites

http://www.meecamera.com

http://www.worldcamera.co.th

http://www.viewfindercamera.com

http://www.avcamera.com

Some of them look good and are in English, at least enough for me to be able to navigate, but none of them sell the particular model of camera I am looking for (Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28), I'm not sure why, it appears to be widely available for sale in other countries.

I think the FZ28 has been replaced with the FZ35-FZ38.

My personal experience of buying non-mainstream cameras is that they can be very hard to find in Thailand. So I have been buying from Hong Kong based retailers via eBay. The prices, even including courier delivery, are competitive, the camera arrives in 2-3 days after ordering and is delivered by courier. I have bought from DC Empire and Digital Rev, both gave very good service. I have bought a Sigma DP1, A Panasonic LX3 and TS1, and a Canon SLR lens via this method with no problems.

Thank you, that is good to know.
