Hello NAIRALANDER'S, i am into importation of computers,electronics and other gadget, recently there been a problem which i don't understand, the selling price of the laptop computers are not favorable so can anyone please tell me, is it my buying price thats high or I'm not getting from the right place which is United state. If you have any useful information please share.

are u in Nigeria or US? THE BEST WAY TO MAKE PROFIT IS TO BUY CHEAP, NOW IT DEPENDS ON WHO DOES THE BUYING. IF SOMEONE DOES THE BUYING FOR You THEN THEY ARE PROBABLY GETTING IT CHEAP AND SENDING  IT TO You AT A HIGHER COST JUST TO MAKE SOME CHANGE OFF You. ON THE OTHER SIDE, THEY MIGHT BE BUYING IT AT A HIGH PRICE SINCE MOST PEOPLE DON'T CARE. You NEED TO RESEARCH HOW MUCH DIFF SPECS OF LAPTOPS/ELECTRONIC COST IN NIG, DO UR MATH AND BUDGET HOW MUCH You WANT TO SPEND TO BUY EACH SPEC OF LAPTOP AND THEN TELL UR BUYER NOT TO EXCEED THAT PRICE. ALSO CONSIDER THE SHIPPING COST.  MOST SHIPPING COMPANIES CHARGE $100 PER LAPTOP WHEREAS POST OFFICES HERE CHARGE $50 FOR MIDSIZED BOX WHICH TAKES UP TO 3 LAPTOPS. BUYER NEEDS TO BUY AT A RESEANABLE PRICE.

thanks chinosxl ill work on that.

Hi friend,

As pointed out earlier, you really need to do your market research very well before venturing into this business.

In the area I live, people are not so much concerned about specifications. All they want is a laptop that will not eat too much into their pocket when they purchase.

From the market research I made, I discovered that 70% of my research sample population are ready to buy laptops that are within the range of N35k - N50k. They can afford it and pay for it once.

However, if you want to sell high end laptops, installmental payment facility for customers will make it faster.

From my research, I have a large market for the low-end laptops and a fairly large market for high end laptops.

If you'll like us to partner, I'll be willing to.

I hope this information is of benefit to you.

To your success

@bigdream

I'm also into the sales of Laptops. What is JV?

@ big dreams what is your email we can work out a business relationship agreement if we can come to favorable terms for both parties.

I did export a few laptops to Naija (about 10) and want to expand the operation. Not just for laptops but also electronic gadgets.

Cheers,
Arnold

@ Martins,

JV simply means Joint Venture - A type of business arrangement where each party pulls resources together to build and grow their business.
