When I sent the promo pic to my wife via whatsapp, I said "I just stole a bargain". Then I quickly followed with "I can resell it and get my money back". I won't, but it worked.

True story. Effectively we bought the phone in Dollar value without Zuma or MIA getting their profit.

When I saw this promo yesterday, it reminded me of the kalahari mediapad deal, value wise.

Someone is fitting the bill. It's WeChat for exposure. Example ordered cereals from WeChat the other day and the box had WeChat branded and the courier company

Just ordered mine too. Now to explain to the boss (wife) why I have a new phone when I already have a decent phone might just be an issue. At least I only have 3 pairs of shoes

Hi,

The feedback I got from our online team is below. Unfortunately I won’t be able to help from the store side. It is not a normal online order that the stores deal with. That is why I did not recognize the order number you showed me yesterday. You will have to wait for the delivery from them.

Good day,

Please be advised that this was a WeChat order and there is a turnaround time of 5-10 working days for the delivery of the unit to take place directly to the customer as per T&C's.

Kind Regards,
Customer Service Representative.

Judging by a certain Samsung J7 in the classifieds on this forum, delivery may be quicker :whistling:

Hi all. I bought the Note 3 for my fiance today, but thinking about importing the Pro for myself through Geekbuying.com. Just a quick question; do I buy the regular version or the Official International version??

According to the phone checker, both versions will work on SA networks, but I'm not sure if there are any other significant differences I should know about before buying...?

TIA

So when I ordered the Note 3 yesterday from this WeChat thing it all went well, except showing me an error message after all steps were completed. The money has been charged to my account and is processing, but my wechat wallet does not display any transaction history. When scanning the QR code again, it opens a message telling me the deal is just one per customer. I have thus far also not received email confirmation of the purchase. Should I just wait a bit or what is the best course of action in this case?

Follow up with WeChatZA on their Facebook page. They can confirm on their side if the store received your payment etc

I see the Mi 4 is available on MTN @R200 pm. But the Note 3 looks like a better phone, especially at this price
