All I'm saying is, paying £200 for a PS3 from a Chinese supplier is realistic. Quite often people here would say that's too cheap, must be a scam. That's nonsense.

Probably including VAT

I will tell you something.

Do you know who makes every single PS3 from China? Or now the world for that matter.

The first 3,000 or so were made in Japan. I couldn't get one fast enough. Darn

It is a company called Maintek, and it is located in Suzhou,China.

No other wholesaler or retailer can sell you their product, no matter what form of payment they can accept, or how hard they try to get you to believe it.

If you still don't believe me, just ask your "supplier" where his/her PS3's were manufactured and by who.

I will show you a quote from one of my conversations when I asked this question.

2007 1:45:43 PM Tejpaul Hello, I have one question

1:46:22 PM SuperLL yes

1:46:36 PM SuperLL you can lay your question here

1:47:05 PM Tejpaul Does your company know who manufactures your Sony Playstation 3's?

1:47:10 PM SuperLL I will come back soon 1:47:16 PM Tejpaul alright

2:15:43 PM Tejpaul ok 2:15:52 PM Tejpaul Does your company know who manufactures your Sony Playstation 3's? 2:16:26 PM SuperLL are you sure it is a wise question you should ask? 2:16:31 PM Tejpaul yes 2:16:53 PM SuperLL so do you think who it is?

2:17:14 PM Tejpaul I know who manufactures them, I own one 2:17:20 PM Tejpaul I want to know if your company knows 2:17:53 PM SuperLL I don't answer any stupid questions,indeed 2:18:04 PM Tejpaul I see, so you don't know

2:18:32 PM Tejpaul If you were a real company, then you would have no problem answering this question 2:19:13 PM SuperLL a company won't be fooled by a stupid question,isn't it?

2:19:28 PM Tejpaul How is that a stupid question? 2:20:44 PM SuperLL I don't suggest u buy a PS3,or if you owe one now you can send it to others

2:21:03 PM Tejpaul I own one unit, for myself

2:21:06 PM SuperLL Not to sell

2:21:57 PM SuperLL I mean send to others,not sell you can sendit to your brother or MR Green nearby 2:22:14 PM Tejpaul What?

2:23:08 PM SuperLL your IQ is too low to manage it! so goodbye! 2:23:36 PM Tejpaul Your company claims to have 20 units of PS3 for 127 EUR, if you do the math, thats 6.35 per unit. The case of a real PS3 costs more than that.


I bet that ruined her day. Oh well

Thanks

There`s no authorized wholesale distributor for PS3 in China!

Well said Canada, if you want PS3's go to Wal-Mart.

Or register with Ingram Micro, or D&L Distributors.

Where do you think all our wholesale friends get their jap/asian units from here in the UK? I can bet not from an authorised dealer. That's not the point anyway. If you want to make money, you can't buy from authorised dealers unless you buy 1000's

Yes, that is correct. It is to discourage people from buying them wholesale in the first place.

Do you really think Sony and Ingram Micro, D&L Dist. want to deal with millions of individuals that buy 1-5 systems.

In Fact, Ingram Micro has a processing fee for orders less than $20,000 I believe, the number may have changed though.

Sony has authorized distributors in Japan.You cannot source PS3 at wholesale, without dealing with the authorized distributor for each country.The Hong Kong retailers and wholesale exporters are buying from Sony`s authorized distributor in Japan.

Thanks Scott, now to find a legit exporter... *sigh* mission impossible it seems. But then those can only be Japanese versions? Otherwise they not from authorised dealers, then possibly fake etc.
