Well I did fine simple electronics like iPods and external hard drives cheaper in Dubai when I visited. But still, Qatar is still expensive compared to the US.
As a matter of fact, I found electronics and laptops in Dubai to be 10-20% expensive than Qatar rates, I thought Dubai is cheaper until i checked it personally.
secondly, I dont understand why the stuffs are expensive here almost double than that of US rates... i shop online for that matter. come to think of it, in US for a item we pay tax but Qatar is tax free country. inspite of this fact the price is double in Qatar, strange but true. could someone throw sensible light on this.. cheers...

Dubai is cheaper than Qatar. How come?
If you comparing between the GCC countries the highest price in general stuff is here in Qatar I do not know why?
there are some things much cheaper here in Doha than in States.
If you are too worried about the price, buy online.
But the price is literally TWICE of that in the US! Thats a bit shocking.
A laptop I configured online came to about 8,000Qrs but when I asked the outlet here, they told me it costs 16,000Qrs!
Seriously, 8,000Qrs more??
Business is business... SELLING PRICE = PURCHASE COST + IMPORT COST + % OF STORE RENTAL + TAX + MARKUP..
Captive market! You are perfect free however to shop online :o)
