Korean Job Discussion Forums

G��day,

I��m wondering if anyone who has lived in Korea and moved back to Canada could comment on the prices of appliances (specifically refrigerators, washing machines��) in each country.
Mrs. Cheney and I have been trying to do some comparisons on the internet, but surprise, surprise, the Canadian retail websites suck rhino. When we do move back, we��re planning on filling a huge container and sending our stuff by ship, so I want to know if it would be more cost-effective to buy good stuff here and pay to have it shipped, versus waiting and buying stuff there.

Thanks, in advance.

Nah, buy it there .... if only 'cos you won't then need step-up transformers scattered hither and thither .....

I'm convinced too that Korea makes two models: a quality export model and a "ha ha sucker koreans you have to live here and buy this crap!" model. I swear every Korean appliance I buy/own here breaks down after 3 months.
