Plug Converter

Where can I buy an electrical converter plug in Amsterdam?

I am an Australian and have arrived in Amsterdam without bringing the correct converter for my Australian appliances. I can't charge my mobile phone etc. Can anyone advise where in Amsterdam I can buy a converter for Australian appliances or if I can by a converter that covers all country plugs?

I know they can be bought in the shopping center of the airport, the one where you come after passport check, so that is no use for you.

Often the ones you buy in the Netherlands for the Dutch plugs abroad can also take plugs from other countries.
You can try all shops selling electronics, like Dixons, BCC, Mediamarks, Kijkshop, Expert to name a few.
Also shops selling cameras might have them.
And of course, the main department stores in town, HEMA, V&D and Bijenkorf.
Take one of your plugs with you when you go shopping and insist on trying in the store. If they do not, go to the next shop.

The site I name in sources seems to have details on all shops, but if you get a general page use Google or a site like that, they can also find you all shops I name above.

Australia uses 230 volt, as far as I know, the same as Europe, so you only need an adapter, to change the physical shape of the plug, not a converter which changes the voltage as well.
