Hi everyone,

I just made a visit to Korea and purchased a Speedy Azur 25 there for $565USD = $600 (at the duty free store).

I had bought the same one in HK and the store charged me $650 cdn!

Is Korea normally cheaper? I thought HK was supposed to be cheaper or has there been a price increase and korea hasnt been affected yet?

Well compared to Macau (which is supposed to be really close to HK its off by a few dollars). Macau charged me $650 cdn.
Korea charged me $565 which is approx $600 cdn.
But the USA elux website says the azur 25 is $595?

hmm my husband bought me mc speedy at a boutique in korea last nov.
he paid $2090 USD and we got VAT refund of $140 back at the airport.
so it was like $1950 after tax refund so actually $40 more than elux price.
sorry I'm not familiar w/macau price bt I always thought lv price in korea was somewhat similar to here in the states. :yes:

So $565usd is normal price of a speedy 25 then? Thats what i ended up paying in Korea. But either way it was a deal to me since I save Canadian taxes.
