The Singapore $ is at a all time high now, exchange is now US$1=S$1.6, just wondering would the "imported" goods example cameras and lens be cheaper soon?

You can barter a D2X with a bag of potatoes. :bsmilie:
:devil: When the world is going to end haa ?
Those local "big" camera shops buy the goods in US$ and sell to us in S$ right?:sweat:dragos said:only if u buy from USA...
I got 2 packs of potato chips. Wanna barter? I need 1 piece of CF card.
No lorz... As long as Yen don't change, prices will not be affected.Astin said:Those local "big" camera shops buy the goods in US$ and sell to us in S$ right?:sweat:
Yen also dropped leh, I think the Japanese is smarter this time, not to let the Yen become too expensive and so more ppl will buy Japanese products.:think:jeremyftk said:No lorz... As long as Yen don't change, prices will not be affected.

Take Canon 70-200 F4 from amazon.com
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000053HH5/102-7671128-9977714?v=glance&n=502394
Is is selling at US$589.95
If the current exchange rate is 1.59, then it will cost about SGD938 + GST = SGD985
Maybe shipping (roughly) USD35 ~ SGD55
Then total price is SGD1040. I think it is cheaper by SGD200...
