Default Mobile phones

Hi everyone,

I've just been on alibaba.com and found a couple of "Gold suppliers" (chinese of course)selling mobile phones (sony ericsson, nokia etc...).
Could this be interesting?
It seems too easy that's the problem...

Thomas... more information please...

Maybe if you told us the actual names of the companies we could take a look for you. Otherwise we are blind to what you have found...

Just to make one thing clear.. I have no experience of alibaba,

A lot of people on here have so their comments would be good...

My advise is certainly get into contact with them and see what they have to offer... no harm in emailing them...

As to whether these "gold suppliers" can be trusted again this is something I cannot comment on...

Hopefully somebody on the forum can aid you where I can't...

Anthony

i think gold suppliers could be more trusting than others if you are going to make a transaction try and do one that suits both of you basically it boils down to trust.
