(I hope this is the right forum to post)

I am about to spend a few thousand rands at this shop online... Was wondering if anyone has before and what your experience was like?
 
Why would you write on a site
WE DO NOT SELL FAKE AND COPIES!

Tell you, it looks fishy to me. Plus you can get those phone deals for the same price or less in a walk-in store.
 
The reason why...

Khanya, we make a clear statement, that we we do not sell fakes or copies - is because we'd receive unusual amounts of inquiries regarding the authenticity of our goods. Furthermore - NO - you will not get these prices at any Walk-In-Store - please do research before you comment.

And Griz - if he is not interested in buying a cellphone - it is most likely he was looking at the Apple iPads :)

Cheers.

And others.

In case you wonder where I get my prices, download the latest HiFi Corp., IC, go to www.game.co.za and view the specials, and get a Club Member (Jet; Edgars) magazine or go to the stores itself.

Granted though, that some of the deals are a tad cheaper and some are baiting.
 
Compare Apples with Apples...

BlackBerry Bold 9700 @ R3799.00... (Local Stock)

Vodacom's cost to dealers is R4389.00.

tad bit cheaper?

Compare apples with apples mate - the only reason we list the small models is to display a variety - it's the big models people are after.

Nokia N8 @ R5199.00...

Tad bit cheaper? Vodacom's cost to dealers is R4900.00 - no dealer is going to give it to you at R5199 - or close. Heck we're even thinking of dropping our price to R4900.00 - but all in good time.

Research...key factor.

Lol. Whether people are after high-end mobile phones or not. Many deals are expensive than walk-in stores.
Anyways, good prices on the high-end models though. Some nice variety of old phones which are not available in stores too. How's shipping though?

+1 - nice work Khanya. People who actually do researched detailed price-comparisons, and help spread the information, love it :)

Sorry "mate", but you were clearly caught in a bald-faced lie. And you have a hell of an attitude, to boot. I prefer not to shop at stores where the owners have this kind of attitude. I wonder how many people you catch who actually believe your lie that they're getting the cheapest price.

Attitude...

@ Khnya - shipping is charged at a flat rate of R150.00

@ Tick - excuse us - we're all very sorry that we don't speak the way you expect us to - but sometimes online stores are given a bad reputation, especially on forums where someone goes and says looks a bit "fishy" if you ask me. All I did was comment to make anyone reading the post aware that we are in fact a legitimate online store. Bald-faced lie? Did you perhaps not see my post of the deals we're offering? By all means Tick - contest our prices and tell us where you find the high-end models cheaper.

Kindest Regards (without any "attitude" intended)
