O.O add 300 for SB-600?? is there a typo??
the nikon sale thing is add 199 to get sb600

The TK Foto and John's seem to offer the best deals. Do try out the camera first before purchase

I have posted in this section about D80 before.. but I haven't bought it as of yet but will very soon. (not sure if this is a wrong section to post this)

I've went a few place today to enquire about the price of Nikon D80 kit. Only 3 places let made me satisfied with their customer service.. but none of the shops seem to have a demo set for me to try with =\ (either that or they think I'm not a serious buyer).


First was an offer at TK foto. Was quoted $1,500 for Nikon D80 kit with all the freebies included in Nikon Great Sale (umbrella, lowepro bag, lenspen klear, 4GB SD + HC card reader, tripod) and an optional SB-600 for an extra $190 (not sure if this is a good price)

Then was at Orient Photo. Quoted $1,520 for Nikon D80 kit and a camera bag (think is the lowepro one which the Nikon Sale is giving) and a tripod.

Lastly was at Vision 1 at Berlington Square (not sure if spelt correctly, it's beside Sim Lim Sq) This shop gave a very good service.. Here, I was quoted $1,300++ for D80 Kit with tripod and 1yr warrenty. The person further agreed to give a 4GB SD card as well.


As I'm new to buying these stuffs.. I'm unaware of which is a better offer (I'm rather inclined towards thte Vision 1 and TK foto)

So anybody in this forum can enlighten me and perhaps deduce which is a better offer or good for long term buying...



On a side note, do I really need a dry cabi???

Help would be very much appreciated

you can try Alan photo at sim lim

I'm also excited on getting the set. TKFoto said 1680, CASH ONLY.

I'll check if they take card by installment, but i'm sure it'll be higher priced i think

 

[ashtorath]

juz call them, they take OCBC card on installment only..
its 1680..before i ask him the installment thing.
