paypal will do the conversion themselves. but as to what is the currency exchange rate, that's for you to guess. could be disadvantageous. best to buy your own paypal funds from others.

buy for backup mah.

those who are rich hor, will buy local liao. 1 US set can buy dunno 2 or 3 sets local. siao one. i think local set easily will cost like $1k. import from US about $300.

What he meant is paypal.com or paypal.com.sg

You cannot compare a Scooba 385 to a Scooba 330. Of course a Roomba 560 cost more than a Roomba 510.

Thanks bro. Paid for it successfully with a paypal SG account.

I asked because some merchants who accept paypal (e.g. newegg) only ship to a paypal verified US address..

My uncle bought local set of Scooba and Roomba.LOL!I find it pointless.but the warranty is good dunno why their set seems to break down often.

You're most welcome

To make the amount paid worthwhile

Imagine the US set you bought up the lorry............

dunno bah, maybe really subject to severe abuse.

anyway, import from US also got warranty coverage, just need to send it back to US lo. to and fro probably about SGD100 for freight charges (given that US to SG costs about SGD57). total cost plus 1 time repair, only about 400-500 lo. if 2nd time come back really cmi, then just buy another one la. still cheaper.

do you think a layman will think like you or think like me? heh....
you are more technical so i'm sure you will say it's different. but to a lay person who just wants to mop floor, there's no diff.
for unkers and aunties, lagi worse. probably lost them at "robot" before you can even say vacuum/washers.

Yah!another alternative is to send it to the pros in our forum to repair will be cheaper also!

Sending the whole box cost S$110 to US from singapore. Speedpost charges more than US. So both way will cost you $200. If iRobot sees those declaration sticker they will void the warranty and I will not know what happen to the box if you do not put return to sender.

I just want to state the fact that you should not compare pricing that way. Cheers.
