Electrical Goods in Qatar

Hi,

How do electrical goods compare to the UK in terms of prices?

I need to get a new laptop - do I get it here in the UK, or wait till I arrive out there in August?

Also, things like Ipods - buy here or wait?

Cheers,

Tucky

Buy it in August...It will be cheaper then...

usually they have new models coming out in "1st 2nd 3rd & 4th Quarter of the year"

Bidding your time is always wiser when buying laptop/pcs

The kepboard here are different here compared to the UK.. but like exile said if you can get a good deal then better to buy from UK as the pound is quite low agains the dollar..

its much cheaper now with the slide in the pound and the reliability record of electrical goods is not that great here. If you have to return something that is faulty be prepared for a long period of arguing.
