Want to buy a camera and was wondering if I'd get a bargain as I passed through. Cheers

this option could be expensive true you may get the camera cheaper in singapore but then take into account you may have to pay at any given airport customs fees that will happen when you get back to the UK with these fees the camera you purchase may not be such a bargain plus there is the issue of warranty would the company offer a warranty valid in the uk and then finally there is compatibility issues regarding voltage and equipment supplied

Im from Singapore and i sure know that our airport gives a good service =) But .. the prices there are a little higher then what you can find in town or elsewhere in Singapore =P but if you cant get out.. might as well shop around the airport.. there are loads of things to see there ... happy shopping ~

Yes you might. Especially if you arm yourself with a price list beforehand. Check with your local distributors that they will honor international warranties for camera purchase overseas. In the mad rush make sure they pack the camera in front of you. You certaintly don't want to bring home an empty box.

like the rest, i believe if you have the opportunity to come out, you can try mustafa or sim lim square. i am not sure if the cameras at the airport would be 'cheap', but they should not be too unreasonably priced.
happy shopping !

90 minutes is more than enough, but these will not be cheaper at the airport, you may get a temp visa and spend your time to Mustafa's to get a real classic peice at a good price.
