[quote="ecureilx"][quote="kwcm"][quote="sundaymorningstaple"]Guess how they got here?!?

Yes - but I wonder whether it gets treated differently when it gets here together with hundreds of other TVs nicely wrapped and in its own container vs one TV (even though nicely wrapped, but not in a bundle) that is more likely to be thrown around.[/quote]
Well, you can 'air frieght' it and make sure it is sent safely

Oh, that costs a lot .. a lot more ..[/quote]
Actually - not more than I thought. By looking at the air freight rates instead of the sea freight rates on SingPost, a 20kg (which is the limit) 3M box is about SGD 200, which is only slightly more than double the sea freight cost of SGD 90. I did expect it to be exponentially more, so this was a surprise. At this cost, it would still be cheaper than the exact same TV in Oz, although they are then more comparable in price (but the Sg set will not have the same warranty benefits).
