Above direct you to the Nexus 7 2013 amazon purchase. You only need to pay for the price of the product. No need CGW or third party freight forwarder. It will be shipped direct to Singapore you address.

Select the Free Amazon global shipping at the end. Make sure you change currency to USD instead of SGD. This will save you quite a bit. Sellers selling at those prices are making a profit. Thus higher.

Take note of the one in red.

I placed an order from Amazon for the 32GB set. But I click on the wrong currency, instead of USD, I click SGD. Any idea whats the difference in the final amount..? Or is it purely going to be the currency conversion factor..?

Also selected the Free Amazon Gobal shipping, but estimated arrival date is 10-17-Sep. Seems quite long...

You will pay approximately $6-9 more.

Ordering in USD, they will use your bank's currency conversion. Ordering in SGD, they will use Amazon's conversion. In most case, the bank has a better conversion rate.

I'm using one right now. It does not scratch at all! Free shipping only applies for a few colours only sadly.

Oh, thanks... Still ok bah. At least its still more attractive compare to local pricing. :)

I also hitch a cover along with the N7, also free shipping. But estimated shipping on 27-Aug and expected arrival is 10-17-Sep. Kind of taking a bit long to reach.. :)

Hi, my Moko case(light blue) arrived last monday and i'm satisfied with it. Initially i was worried about the metal piece but fret not my friend. When it is closed, the metal piece would Not be resting on the surface of the tablet, even if you smack the cover hard to close it, it would not hit the tablet too.
