Microwave 110 v
I know the voltage is 220vac in the Philippines and my microwave is of course 110vac, but it's a really good microwave and I could ship it for maybe $80. But then of course I need a converter which cost maybe another $70 bucks. So I'm undecided.
Are the microwaves you buy in the Philippines running on 220vac or do they run off of 110vac? What's your advice?
Thanks

I would leave your microwave in the states, your going to need a fridge and most new fridges come with a microwave thrown in. If you do buy a fridge get the side by side style the other ones are terrible.
I wouldn't want to mess with higher voltage conversion and microwaves are pretty cheap now.
A very large excellent quality crock pot would be worth shipping here because I have heard of only Subic selling those, not sure of the sizes though, I did run across mini or average sized crock pot at the SM Malls and the prices were very high at 5,000 Peso's, I ended up shipping a large but cheaper unit from Sears and it cost me $200 mostly shipping and VAT tax fee's.
Real handy when cooking chilli or stews without worry of burning the bottom the good thing is all the ingredients, shilling mild chili powder, cumin, beans and black beans are sold in the Philippines.
