I'm not sure KLCC, but if you buy things from such a tourist peak place, they will charge u tourist price

[phey05]

ok... so where's the nearest shop in KL city proper that i can buy this lens at a reasonable price?

really? can name the shop?

[phey05]

yes deniel,

whats the name of the shop in bukit bintang?

[DanielK]

i dont know. take the day off and walk into as many shop as u can there. they vary their prices everytime so u need to see which one offers u the lowest on that day.

aiya...a few dollars difference just go out and buy anywhere la.. by the time u spend ur hours and parking fee, it doesnt make any diff.
go to the nearest shop to where u live, and SPEND.

[DanielK]

yes, that's true. but since u already know that u can get for about 780, just keep an eye out to make sure the diff is not too big.

My friend just got Nikon AF-S Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G DX for me in Bukit Bintang, he will be back in singapore on May 1st, ill post additional info soon...
780 international card payment...
1 year international warranty.. thats the only thing i know as of the moment.
i also ask him to trow away the box so that he wont be ask by the custom official to pay 7% GST when he go inside singapore...

[ycsteven]

I noticed some of the shops are the same owner, like those handphone shops or booths, so I think that's y the price very close, and they can 'control' the price,hehe.

[phey05]
