Laptop buying: REVIEW of shopping in Bangkok

[SoiBiker]

You mean Fortune Town, presumably?

If you're complaining about inaccurate information elsewhere, you night at least get the name of the mall right.

Really so soon in a thread and the ah&$)(s come out?

He leans in that direction....

Because chipping into a month-old conversation just to have a pop at someone is just so much classier.

Glad you like the laptop, by the way.

Any comments on this situation, please. I, too did a bunch of DD for the past couple of weeks. Looking to switch from my iPad Air to a hybrid with Win OS. The model I settled on is the HP Spectre x2 2-in-1 12" Touch-Screen Laptop - Wi-Fi + 4G

Living in dreamland, I used BestBuy and EBay to get an idea of the comparative prices. I know, these have nothing to do with Thailand. But, in my example, HP Thailand 'offers' this model at 49,900 THB (which converts to US$ 1,400, approx.). The same model is priced at a regular $799 reduced to $599 at Best Buy.

Would Singapore offer prices more in line with international online shopping prices. I realise, there is still import duty to add. Surely, not 100% ?

The Singapore price is the same as the Thai price.
