need views for buying accessories from DD ELECTRONICS?
- Thread starter yaneza
- Start date
Its not only that, compare the price of all the other items...most of them has increased by $100-200...Sianz....
Based on Canon Singapore website, the RRP is still the same, so shops got no reason to increase the pricing.
If DD continues with this pricing, I predict they will be out of business in no time :think:

Yes, indeed they increased their retail price. the Canon EF 50mm 1.8 II cost $124 last week. Now, when i check again its already $189. Could it be because of the happenings in japan wherein supply has been disrupted? thats why they increased prices.
Haha, while people stocking up on salt and Iodine, CSers should start stocking up on their Canon lenses before the official ones also go up in price
They hike price also good lah, now I don't need to consider already, just buy local warranty set. Don't need to crack my head anymore in deciding whether to buy from them or my favourite shop selling Canon warranty set.
Hope their shop won't be closed down that soon :bsmilie:

Really??Hmmmm....sounds like a good deal to head there to purchase these few days...
If DDE closed shop, it will no longer provide shop warranty for past customers.:sweat:
Sure. Not sure if this is OT, but for the benefit of all CSers. This is my usual shop

Look for Anthony (the boss) or Remy. This shop is also highly recommended in similar forum across the crossway for Johorean.
The only setback is that this shopping mall is not as populated as other bigger malls. For me I never stay there for more than half an hour. I buy and go.
If you can go with friends then it will be better, but I always go alone. Maybe you can jio me if you going....If that may be a concern, you may also want to try another shop located in Jusco Tebrau. It is called Mee Too Foto. It should be located at the 3rd level. This mall is more crowded and most people feel "safe" there. Alot of Singaporean go there to shop too.
The last one is Foto CLS located on the 2nd floor of Pelangi Leisure Mall.
For me other than these 3, I don't bother to look at other shops in JB due to pricing and service.
Either one you choose, remember to be polite and nice, and you can bargain a little more from the price they quote you. Malaysian are very nice if you are nice too.

Thanks Pachero, very enlightening indeed?Wonder how do you normally bring items back to Singapore?Has the custom ever stopped you? That is I'm assuming you're Singaporean...
So far so good. I think the saying while we doing NS, "do anything but don't get caught" applies. I do not want to post how I do it here....hope you understand. I assure you for camera, most of the time should be no problem clearing customs.
Wah, DDE increased the pricing so much.. GodDmn!
I wanted to buy the 17-55mm, last week DDE price is only $1310, now it is $1399 !!!! On the other hand, 24-105 last week DDE price is $1,348, now it is $1599++ WTF!
So, my advice is better you guys go buy from KL (if u guys got a chance to go there) bcos all lenses+body prices drop so much and you get Canon Malaysia warranty.
17-55mm is now selling only RM3,300 = $1375 (even lower than DDE after conversion) after the RRP price reduction from Canon Malaysia. Previously, it was selling at RM3,800
Anyhow, I will be buying at KL (since I am a Malaysian and go back KL often).
BTW, I did bought my 430EXII from DDE in Jan2011 at $350 only... now they are selling at a crazy price of $509 ! LOL
