    Couple of questions for any Jersey residents...

    I'm going over to Jersey shortly, but only for a couple of days, so it'd save me an awful lot of rushing around if anyone could let me know...

    1- How much is the PS3 selling for currently ? I know it's not always strictly UK price minus VAT.
    2- Is there anywhere with any decent laptop bargains ? Sony Vaio in particular. I know of the Sony place at Charing Cross, any good ?
    3-Any recommended camera shops ?

    Or generally, if any of the locals know of any particularly good techie/pc/gadget stores, please chime in Or any recommendations at all, restaurants, walks, anything !

    We did the trawl of all the usual shopping streets last time we were there but I just had a nagging feeling that there may be a little gold mine somewhere off the tourist track

    Thanks in advance !

    Don't fancy hopping on the ferry and checking those prices then ?

    I've got a lot of Jersey friends, the Guernsey lot usually go and invade once a year and go to gigs etc. The prices will be more expensive than play.com, let's just put it that way.

    Cheers, very true.

    Just seems less painful parting with cash when you're on "holiday"

    If I come back and think about it I'll never spend it !

    Actually, play.com is a Jersey company I must hasten to add.

    Yeah, pity they don't have a shop !

    I know quite a lot of the fulfillment companies have a place in the channel islands. I don't think any of them have any outlets though.

    Ah well, back to Google and scurrying round back streets looking for bargains then !
