Is it cheaper to buy a digital camera (point & shoot) in the US than here in Manila?

canon digital camera in the philippines image

jekoy

I am planning to buy a Canon PowerShot SD880 IS (known as SD870 IS in Manila). The list price in the Canon Philippines site is Php 25,000.

Answer
Absolutely. According to Google, 25,000 PHP converts to $516 USD which is outrageously expensive for a point and shoot in the States. The camera alone costs $247.95 at B&H Photo & Video (a long-time, reputable camera equipment dealer in New York City) which roughly converts back to 12,013 PHP. However, be aware that the customs services may impose duties. Apply customs avoidance schemes at your discretion.
