Anyone know where I can buy a standard sized US mattress here in Singapore?

Anywhere that sells US brands like Sealy & Serta will likely custom order you a US size mattress. We got one at Harvey Norman and were lucky they actually had the US size we wanted in stock so we didn't have to wait on a custom order. Takashimaya will custom order for you as well but they may be more pricey.

we had the same issue. we looked at a lot of places and found the prices to be ridiculous. then went into robinson's on orchard, and got a custom made king koil mattress (us brand) for the same price that you would pay in the us. you just give them measurements. it takes only 4 days to make b/c they are made here in singapore. just note that you must talk to the king koil rep. in robinson's as many other reps will approach you and tell you you can't get a US size mattress anywhere. hope this helps.

Thanks NYC, I have done that in the past but was wondering if there were any ready made. Should have known to stick with the original plan. Thanks.
