Anyone know where I could buy a GoPro Hero 3: Black Edition in Phuket? And also, how much would it cost? I know the US retail price but no clue about the price here.

I know a mall/shopping complex on the way to Phuket city from Patong(somewhere on the mail road/highway), anyone can help me with the name of that mall/shopping complex?

That would be Central Shopping Mall. You might also try Jungceylon Mall in Patong.

I looked for one in Bangkok last month and was told by two shops who both stocked the previous version that the Hero 3 hadn't arrived in Thailand yet and they had no idea when it would

Yup that's the one, central, thanks.

Still would like to know the ongoing price for Hero3: BE if anyone is aware...

@Tawng - While searching on the net for the price, I came across the website for GoPro's sole distributors in Thailand who are based in Bangkok, so it should be available by now. Check again if you still interested.

The only problem is I'm not able to find the price of it.

Dunno where about's in central stocks it but you can defo buy Go pro's and attachments downstairs in the Big C shopping centre, next door to central. Theres a gadget type shop on the ground floor, just by the entrance to the underground car park, not sure about the name but i think it could be life or i life, anyway, Its not that big a place and every other shop is a phone shop so your sure to find it. Im not sure if they got the 3rd edition, but if its available they'll be able to order it for you. You can bet your bottom dollar it'll be more expensive than where ever you've seen it before too!

14000 is a little steep compared to online price.

But then run the risk of it being taxed at customs and not saving at all.

See if you can get a buddy or family member to bring one. Save £100+

Got for surfing and is great but 14000 is what I paid w/ lens covers and moisture pads. Get the tri pod set up as well as the surfboard FCS set . That will give you many options for hand held use, as you can make your own extended pole mounts. Good luck loads of fun, takes great pic and HI end video.

Sorry Tri Pod set up...
