As the title says, i might be going there since Alesis Multimix mixers are so expensive here. But i need to find out the real street price in SG for Alesis Multimix 16 USB 2.0.

From what i know if throw away the box, less chances of kastam tax. Its for personal use, should i travel by air or land?


I appreciate replies from people who frequently buy audio stuff from SG..

have u checked with smx in times square yet?
i think sinamex in singapore is still the distributor for alesis, so just spend 50c and call them to ask what the price is there.
then get smx here to see how far they can match it since they are one and the same.

i think i'd better seek someone here that can help give reasonable Alesis prices..


my friend in melbourne found out an Alesis Multimix 16 USB 2.0 only costs AUD$ 650 (incl gst) which translates to Rm 16xx!!! (Can Nego summore - WTF....!!!)

Retail price from SMX timesquare is RM 2450, after walk in discount only slash RM 120 (5% SAJA!!??)


Im planning a trip to Melbourne and planned to get the mixer during the trip, but i had so many bad experiences buying from abroad.. takut woor..

do u guys think SMX can repair if the mixer breaks down?

then go SG buy la.
u do realise here must pay 30% extra right...so if go SG based on SMX price should work out to RM1.9k.

and is ur friend really really really sure its AUD650 there?

even street price in US is around USD550, which matches SG price.
really is no way Australia is cheaper.
