Amazon Echo Spot was on discount during Valentine’s Day week. The usual retail price is US$129.99 (S$173), and during the promotion, the price went down to US$114.99 (S$153).
As usual, all Amazon Echo products don’t ship to Singapore directly. So you have to use a freight forwarder like HopShopGo.
eero Beacon usual price is US$149 (S$199). But on 27th December 2017, they had a sale where it was discounted to US$99 (S$132) with the discount code BEACON99.
Shipping within the US is free, and hence I sent it to my favorite fright forwarder, HopShopGo, and get them to ship to Singapore for me.

I bought the Cable Matters 2-Pack, Gold Plated DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable (6 Feet) on Amazon for US$17.99 (S$25).
I bought it together with the Cable Matters Thunderbolt 3 to Dual 4K or Single 5K DisplayPort Adapter.
I was looking for an adapter that allows me to output to two external displays using just a single port and I realized that USB-C is not the way to go. USB-C specifications only allow one external display per USB-C port.
