Smile Consumer Electronics- Ipods, PSPs etc.

Hey guys,

I have been looking online for ages to find someone/a company that would be able to supply me with wholsesale priced consumer electronics such as the ones listed. Most of the sites I checked required a monthly payment fee (some in excess of $70 a month ).

So does anyone know of anyone or anywhere that is reliable/reputable and would be able to take orders of say +- 20 units initially, and cater for shipping to South Africa.

An example would be Sony PSPs which, according to ebay, retail for around $250 with shipping. Here, in South Africa they retail for around $390. So if you could get them for less than $250... give me a shout.

Cheers, and looking forward to your replies.

Most of the netdropshipper stuff is way too overpriced for wholesale, and a couple of things I've seen cheaper in Bestbuy than at their "wholesale" price. Ex: Creative 40 GB MP3 player, at Best Buy $219.99 lowest price on Netdropshipper is $249.99

Hey thanks for the link. Their prices aren't THAT bad... i mean a PSP is going for $229, and they say if you order > 10 units you receive bulk discount...

EDIT: Anybody have any experience with these guys?

Try one of the D&B databases. You'll get thousands of consumer electronics wholesalers.

Get a card for one of the University libraries, and I am sure they'll have access.

Most likely pirated. I doubt a game that retails $100 or so could have stock costs that low. But hey, you never know
