Hey there,

Im looking to buy a laptop for my fiance in dumaguete. I was hoping to get maybe a refurbished laptop. Dont need something with tons of power but enough to webcam and that type of thing. Does anyone know of a good place I might be able to find affordable prices?

Dumaguete's got Octagon, Micro Valley, DGTech, technoMart, Ace Logic, AAC Tech, Algorithm, etc. But in addition, Robinsons should have at least a couple of good compouter shops, probably coming from Manila. Probably even shops of computer brands such as HP or IBM..

Neo a Philippine Company is manufacturing laptops in country, They seem to be good, and are considerably cheaper than imported laptops, should be available at Octagon.
Example:
160gig HD, 2 gig processor, 1 gig ram dvd/cd writer, about 19,000

As you may already have noticed, electronics are high priced in the Philippines due to import taxation.

I just recently purchased a laptop -- a netbook, actually -- from Digital One, and I was quite pleased with the price, warranty and customer service.

Lenovo S10-2 -- perfect for my needs.

There'a supposed to be a "discount" outfit from Manila that is opening a store in Robinson's Mall, Dgte. On another forum, the OP said the name was something like "ComputerKing"....I remember the "King" was a direct part of the name. Supposed to have good products at very good "discount" prices. (I have no connection with that company what-so-ever)

I guess you mean CD-R King, but they are no computer outlet. Yuo can buy there a lot of computer related stuff to valuable prices but no computers and laptops...
