YOu can try using Vpost which is slightly cheaper but take a longer time.

Where is your friend from? I got mine new in Shanghai.

My friend is from Vietnam, shipping to Vietnam is much more expensive than to Singapore, I don't know why.

alternatively if you dun mind theose china-made type you can try tcws at peninsula sc... i saw they have a few remote for various types of cameras... but 1 disadvantage is that these remotes have a few more buttons then the original one which i think are redunancy... the onlt advantage is the price which are less then $30...
