Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the new laws came in. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.
