Instax Wide 300 Instant Camera - Best Price for Local Warranty Purposes?

nicholsonr on 16/10/2017 - 00:37

The fiance's all time ever dream present is to own an instant print camera like a Polaroid.
I have found the perfect model, and she likes the look of it, is the Instax Wide 300 Instant Camera by Fujifilm.

The cheapest I have found is $174 from Harvey Norman (which is odd, as generally they are the priciest for items in general).
Does anyone know any other local options or potential sellers I could approach?
Western Australia only, as it's not worth saving $5-10 if I have warranty issues and have to ship it somewhere.

The item in question is http://www.fujifilm.com.au/products/instant_photo/cameras/in…
Harvey Norman's price https://www.harveynorman.com.au/cameras-printers-photocentre…

Any Ideas?

If not I may just bite the bullet for the Harvey Norman option.
P.S. I know its $137 AUD on eBay and $88 USD on Amazon (+ shipping) but looking at cheapest local warranty.

    Teds has it for $159.95.

    Edit. Get local warrranty. I bought mine on eBay and had a problem with it. Took months to get anything done.Ended with a paypal dispute and refund.

      Was the problem about the lens where it made people on the corner look fat?

        No. My problem was the viewfinder was crooked so the pictures came out crooked.

        Edit. I bought mine from eBay but an overseas seller. I’m sure a local eBay seller might be better. Overseas is the key here.

      When you say Teds, is this an online place or if not is the name of the shop just Teds?

      Edit: Appears this shop is in various states of Australia, just not Western Australia :(
