PhotoAid XIV! : season of love and giving

[eikin]

1) Nikon AFS VR 70-200mm F/2.8 226800 yen = 3150 SGD (Yodobashi)
2) Nikon 85 f2.8D PC (huh?)
3) Nikon 10.5 FishEye 87000 yen = 1209 SGD (Yodobashi)
4) Nikon 105 VR = 85800 yen = 1192 SGD (Fujiya)
5) Sony Carl Zeiss 16-80 93000 yen = 1292 SGD (Yodobashi)
6) EN-EL3e 7140 yen = 99.20SGD (Yodobashi)

(exchange at 1SGD = 72 yen)

Yodobashi sells at market price, Fujiya sells below market price but alot of prices are released only upon request, so need to go down to shop to ask. Fujiya probably offer lowest prices for new items.

of course. that's also because of the point reward system. there's like 10-30% discount for every item purchased but manifest in the form of points for future purchases.

:kok:

you never read ah? it's expensive because of the point system.

say you buy item A for 100 000 yen and the point reward is 10%, you'll be given 10 000 points.

when you buy item B (15 000 yen) you can use the points and pay only 5 000 yen, get it?

not true,

say i got 5 items i need to buy

item 1 to 4 altogether costs 100 000 yen

item 5 cost 10 000 yen

so i can get item 1 to 5 at 100 000 yen instead of 110 000 yen, the '10% discount' is inside.

what's more item 5's purchase is eligible for point reward still.

it's about planning your purchases.

Fujiya doesn't offer point system, so instead cut the prices directly.

if you've got alot to buy, Yodobashi is comparable to Fujiya, if you've got only few items to get, Fujiya might be better. Yodobashi is much bigger as an organisation. in terms of size it's like comparing CP to Lords, just that Yodobashi is probably 10++ times larger than CP :sweat:

these are online shopping. you want can use your credit card to buy, i'm not sure what's the added terms and conditions are, Japanese hardly buy things with credit cards because of hidden costs and also they do not like to deal with invisible cash.
