I have been fairly successful in finding prices on-line for a lot of household items in Uganda; there are a few I can't seem to access though.
Can anyone help me?
I need the typical brand new pricing for the following:
Double or Queen sized bed frame
Mattress, Double or Queen
Bed linens (pillow cases and sheets)
Duvets
Plates
Glasses
Mugs
Cutlery sets
6 seat dining table and chairs
L-shaped setee
Armchairs
"Flat-pack" style wardrobe
Satellite TV dish/box/subscription

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks for the offer Billy, but #1) I am not in Uganda and #2) I am preparing a budget proposal for a construction camp, so I do not need the items immeadiately.
I need to calculate the cost for 12 beds with sheets, 3 L-shaped setees, 6 armchairs, 12 closets, 2 6 seat dining tables, 2 or 3 sets of dishes and cutlery (enough for 24 people); but thanks for the offer anyway.

prices for items you are looking for are the same as in Europe and USA. Depending on the quality/brand and places where you decide to purchase, the prices may be 30% less.
Hope this helps
