I guess it is much cheaper.

Also, consider going there between today til' probably the first week of September. There will be an IT exhibit there in Suntec City this coming August 31. HDDVDs and BDs are probably some of the items there.  ;)

Do let us know, if you could get it there cheaper. Baka pwede magpabili  :P

Group Buy Anyone?  :D
