Heard it's only @ 2029 AUD in Oz now... man, good price.

Singapore pricing definitely going to be cheaper than Oz.
Hoping for S$2.3K!!!

Start shipping next week in some regions. My guess is around 2.2k body only. Good price.

1599 USD is abt 2.6K SGD, 2029 AUD is only 2.4K SGD

Its my experience that somehow Singapore is the World's most expensive place to buy Canon photo equipment. E.g. When I was in Sydney last year in Oct 2-3 weeks after the launch of the 5D, I walked into a shop that had a 5D for sale. The price after GST refund was about S$5,700. My friend had bought one 1 week earlier from CP and he proudly paid $6,688. Another example is also last year I walked into the big official Canon showroom in KLCC, in KL, and bought a BG E2 for S$220 (after bargaining).

I can give you many examples that its cheaper to buy Canon in USA, HK, etc from shops like B & H, etc. but you know it. On the other hand, when I was asked to inquire about prices for Nikon produsts in Australia, I found that S'pore is cheaper than them.

Hence I conclude its only Canon products that are ex here in SG :

Hi Is there any one used the vpostjapan to purchase camera from Japan online store before? Is the charge resonable?

I will be visiting Tokyo soon, tempted to buy 30D there. Price is so attractive. Is there anything to be aware of ? (beside the warranty and charger issue). Thanks.

 

[ahtiu]

any idea why Singapore is selling Canon Cams so much more than places like Japan

 

[whkoh]

Um...small market, limited competition, high overhead cost for shops, etc?
