Direct from Amazon, no 3rd parties? What about customs etc

Direct. Amazon adds on shipping and estimated customs tax to your order before checkout. When parcel lands at OR THAMBO, courier will just phone for an ID number.
 
Any specials on the instant gazebo's?
Best price have so far is from Builders Warehouse for R890. (3x3m)

edit:
Even the 2nd hand prices are mad!

Why would you say that? If they were selling stolen stuff shouldn't most of the devices be blacklisted.
How would you explain sealed original hardware?
Maybe there are ways of getting some hardware really cheap.
We all know the markup in retail stores are crazy. Maybe the retailers are the real criminals?

Well I won't buy any cellular device from BoB again, I bought a I9300 sealed brand new, after 10 months it got blacklisted, after a lot of phoning I found out it was blacklisted as part of fraud. I was explained to that what sometimes happens is fraudsters get phones on contracts sell the phone then stop paying leaving the provider no choice but to blacklist.

I got lucky and the seller replaced my board with another. But beware you may not be as lucky.

Not exactly saying everything on there is stolen, just that there's more scammers on there than not.
 
I must say bidorbuy is cool. I bought a liteon 256GB SSD for R1500 and i must say it's faster than most ssd out there today. I get 500mb read and 500mb write speed. access time is also lower than most out there. thinking of getting another just for os so then i have 2. one for os and one for games
