Hi.. I wanted to buy a Panasonic DMC-LC1 in Singapore, which from what I've gathered on the net, is a pretty good place to buy 4 this particular model. Anyways i was wondering whether any1 could help me with a couple of queries:
1) recommendations of some reputable shops that are located fairly centrally. I think Alan Photo and Cathay Photo seems to b mentioned quite frequently as reputable and have good prices.
2) product availability - r they usually in stock or do I need to make advance arrangements since I won't be in Singapore very long
3) Should I try to bargain there or get in contact with the shops prior and arrange for pricing. I think it should be roughly $1600 SGD (not sure inc GST or not but since I'm a traveller, 80% of the GST gets refunded doesn't it??) for the full kit incl the MC lens protector and remote shutter release.
4) Do I get charged more to pay with credit card?
5) Does the LC1 come with international warranty and how long?? I live in Australia.
Any help would be appreciated!!
tq!!!
