I phoned Alan Photo (Funan) and was quoted the following (on 2nd January 2010):
K-x dual lens kit (DA L 18-55mm & DA L 50-200mm): SG $1250
K-x dual lens kit (DA L 18-55mm & DA L 55-300mm): SG $1398 (rounded off to $1400)
Then...
I subsequently did some scouting around some popular USA online stores (on 2nd January 2010) and discovered the following:
K-x single lens kit (with DA L 18-55mm) USA online price is SG $55 more expensive than SG local store price, and that too without SG warranty. So it makes very good sense to buy this kit from SG itself.
K-x dual lens kit (DA L 18-55mm & DA L 50-200mm) USA online price is SG $180 cheaper than SG local price, but keep in mind that there is no local SG warranty. So what do you guys think? Would it be wise to buy it from a USA online store without local SG warranty?
K-x dual lens kit (DA L 18-55mm & DA L 55-300mm) USA online price is SG $300 cheaper than SG local price, but keep in mind that there is no local SG warranty. So what do you guys think? Would it be wise to buy it from a USA online store without local SG warranty?
Special Note: The black, white, red and navy blue kits cost the same at some places whereas at other places white and red kits cost about SG $50 more.
Any ideas/suggestions from anyone? What would you guys do if you were in my place and desired a K-x colored body with dual lens kit?
