kicking Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Fortune Town in BKK Capa Digi and Pix One both offer outstanding deals on photo equipment. For example: Nikon D90 with 18-200mm VRII ~ 51,500 THB Canon 5D Mark II body only ~ 79,000 THB You will definitely save money at either of these shops. The caveat is that the warranties are issued from the shop and any repair may mean a shipment to Japan (shop takes care of that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pakboong Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Doesn't in shop warranty translate to grey market merchandise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 That is exactly what they sell - and for someone living in Thailand is can be a large savings. Although my last look found most of the grey items missing as if they had been pressured into removing them (few months ago). They also sell local imports at higher prices. 50 years ago the camera fixed price monopoly was broken in the US by dealers in New York; but it is still alive in Thailand. And is true for most items here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicking Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 Yes, I saved about 16K baht with Pix-One. If there is a problem, they will ship to Nikon Thailand. Capa Digi was a bit less expensive but they ship to Nikon Japan. Thanks to the original poster in the pinned section for mentioning these shops at Fortune Town.
