Default Rollei 35 Camera Repair

I have just inherited a Rollei 35SE that has seen better days. There are some fungus on the viewfinder but the lens seemed pretty clean. The shutter fires beautifully at all speed and I was hoping that I can get the camera clean for a reasonable price in Singapore rather than sending it overseas. Are there any reputable Rollei repair craftman in Singapore that I can send my Rollei for an estimate? Would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

Go to P&G at the Adelphi, David can give you a quote there.

Camera Hospital at Sunshine plaza is also highly recommended.

Sunshine Plaza is located opposite of Peace Centre. You could walk there from Little India MRT station or a long stroll from Dhoby Gauht MRT station too, past Plaza Singapura.

Don't quote me, but I'd strongly not recommend P&G, (this is based on a singular experience there which resulted in a total mistrust with the repairman there.) I'd rather not talk about it here but if you need hard facts, gimme a PM and I'll let you know.

Sunshine Plaza's Camera Hospital on the other hand is an excellent venue for camera repairs, the service is great plus the speed is quick. Steven, the guy who repaired my camera is a swell of a guy and he won't pull no tricks on you unlike the rest of the shops which I went to in the triangle area in Peninsula.

Good luck on your repairs chynakym.
