DH needs to buy 3 for work (not sure why). Do you know if these are still sold and if so where in Dubai?

Many thanks:)

Hmmmh, thanks ladies. I shall direct him towards Amazon I think - I definitely don't have the time to trawl every corner of Dubai. BNBH - no, he's not on site - he works in advertising and whilst he hasn't gone into details I know it's something to do with being trendy/ironic etc!!! Thanks again all.

Honestly dont think there is a chance of finding them now. Why doesnt he just use an ordinary digital camera and one of those small portable photo printers. If he's out on site then he could even power the mini printer with a solar charger. Love my solar charger ;-) eta like these http://www.smallportableprinter.com/portable-photo-printer-reviews/ <em>edited by BNBH on 11/04/2011</em>

6 months ago I looked in every corner of Dubai for a Polaroid, all the malls, Deira, DragonMart, Karama, Bur Dubai ... you name it I went there and I could not find any. Best chance is to order them online and get them shipped.

I bought the small fun version and the films in a Kodak store here - mind you it was a few years ago don't know if they still sell them but you could try.

I'd be really REALLY surprised if you could buy them in Dubai. Certainly neither Sharaf DG nor Jacky's sell them. Polaroid went out of business but came back with a whimper with the launch of the Polaroid PoGo, but as far as I know, it's only available in US/Europe. You may have luck finding some old stock in one of the Satwa electronics shops, but the film may not be so easy to acquire. Have you done an EW search? How about searching on dubizzle or souq.com? Failing that, your best bet -- if you have the time -- is to purchase via Amazon. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Polaroid-Digital-Photo-Printer-Technology/dp/B001APNVTQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1302518870&sr=8-1
