i'm looking for someone to to fund an expedition to china, taiwan, and acouple asia countries aprox $70k the expedition will be geting direct from factory to get iphones, htc, and other electronics for cheaper price than the market. basicaly me and my partner will be taking alot of risk since some of it will be like gray market as in direct from factory instead of company example geting a factory to produce iphone instead of going thru apple.

what you will benfiet is that all electronics will go thru you so you will be considered main supplier for large units of 100k-800k per week hopefully . while we basicaly just want small commision and without any bull since we know what buyers want and how brokers think.

Are you being serious? Or is this just a prank.

Most those iphones and etc you find in those "grey market places" are fake...even if they aren't....it's still quite illegal.

Please do your research before you embarrass yourself.

I don't think its a scam, I think they are serious, just don't know what they are talking about..

if you been in the mobile buisness. then how are people getting iphone 3g geting 50k-100k phones below price around $400 range and yes they real because they inspect. and companies like data select buy these phones.. you cant say they buying direct from apple since apple only sells it at 20% below price which would be $599 of actual cost and they limit the amount of phones you could purchase in bulk. grey market mean legal to point but yeah. its not just iphones even thou that is the main agenda but any other electronics who ever is funding. wants to look for.

and thanks pboychuk for having sense instead of criticizing like everyone else. i thought this whole site was to help each other

and gray market is not black market i did my reasearch for long time here is what gray market realy is and good amount of entrepreneurs do it

bulkylime please listen...

The iphones made by anyone but Apple and not 'real', and are not good quality. Sure you could buy a heap and try and sell them, though that would be totally illegal, and everyone would know they are fake. Who is buying 50-100k fake iphones? I am not sure where you are getting your information, or if you are making it up, but seriously have a think about what you are saying, it just sounds stupid.

What I am trying to say is: NO COMPANY CAN GET IPHONES FROM ANYONE BUT APPLE, there is no manufacturer that will sell to you other than Apple, no you cannot get a company to make exactly the same thing, no it will not work, oh and it is illegal.

I think they are serious but people in todays economy just dont have that type of money anymore to speculate !!!

Will · 07-02-2009, 08:16 AM

Mega B, people have never had the money to spend on such a ridiculous idea, I think you mean.

PsiPro · 07-02-2009, 09:11 AM

not to mention at 800k iphones per week is a huge amount of inventory.

Benizzle · 07-02-2009, 09:24 AM

not everything that comes out of china is poor quality, its just to get good quality generally u have to pay as much as what you would for it anywhere else in the world haha....

in all serious though I believe there is a market for chinese phones (providing they are of very high level and DONT infringe any copyright laws) due to some of there designs i believe could appeal to the US market and they have some quality features which are yet to be shown on most mainstream phones (eg. dual sim)

just my 2c

Cheers,
Ben

the only factory make Iphones in China is Foxcom, the other are fake Iphone.

maybe there are some ways to find the true Iphone, named "grey" market. Trust them, they have ability to copy, my friend told me.

in fact, if you want to my some electronic goods, pleas go to Shenzhen (China). you can find cheap price, and the newest design.

pboychuk · 07-02-2009, 11:41 AM

the grey market has nothing to do with fake i-phones.. If you are truely buying grey market, the product you are buying is infact 100% legit, but the cost in the country you are buying the product from is lower in the country you plan to sell it.. Now the means of acquiring the product may be illegal, but otherwise the sale of the product, is not normally strictly illegal, per se (a good lawyer could get you off)..

My whole bicker is that you can't just become a drug lord overnight, nor can you become a major player in a grey market overnight by going to china for 70k... All in all, if you have to come to forums looking for connections, than you don't stand a chance.
