Hi Guys

Just a feeler, so your input will be appreciated. Mods please remove or move to appropriate section.

A while back I used to import a lot of performance parts from Japan. With doing so picked up good contacts in Japan. Now with the items being bought internationally warranty will always be an issue. Then again if you buy something out of local warranty its also a risk.

What I am proposing is that I can help guys on a budget to get great cards at affordable prices. I don't mind registering as a reseller, I think it will just be right to do so. Obviously it wont only be GPUs but other hardware they offer.

Exchange rate is always a issue as well. I have experienced the fluctuation between currencies to be around R1 for Yen 9-12 over the last 10 years or so.

If only shipping and customs wasn't that high you could pick up cards like GTX680's for R1200, only way to save/bypass on this is group buys.

Let me know what you guys think

Thanks
 
Just as long as it's Japanese and not Chinese, you can count me in :)
 
Bring :)

Another example of a new card AMD's R9 290x flagship card goes for R5250 there...

I'm leaning more towards the second hand market buying on auction where you set the price, and hopefully get it cheap.

But what would be the local price?(incl shipping, taxes, ect)

Well there are ways and ways when it comes to import duties and taxes. Only way to save on shipping is group shipping and via EMS, UPS is way to expensive.
 
Interested. Put some offers together for us to peruse... :)
