DTalented: @Texaco1, its true that everyone wont be an importer. That is why everybody is not here. Thousands of people come to Nairaland daily and many enter business forum daily but have never clicked on this thread.
I believe anyone following, reading or asking questions here wants to learn or help others on how to purchase online for use or for re-sale.
To me, You sound as if anyone who cant purchase in bulk or who doesn't have large sum is not qualified.
Many people here are students and i remember this thread started as a mini-importation guide.

No offence pls . Just saying my mind.

Imanuelle: Mini washing machine


tablets.

princeuk21: that's nice why dont we create a thread for that, exchange our contact (phone num# B.B Pin, Facebook i.d) and start something. But First who will creat the thread and bring us all together? Thinkng...... OGA SurveyCash our OGA @ The Top can do that

ib4ola: i think i will go with the Mini washing Machine. let me share my experience, some time a go i bought a mini washing machine for 30USD from a Chinese factory thats about 4,800 Niara. the market price in Kano state Nigeria was 18,000 niara, but quite unfortunate i made noting from that business you know why, i had to pay CVM 90USD to get the package to lagos and another 3500niara to kano. now if you do the total calculation you will find out that i spent about 22700Naira to get just 1 machine to my final destination. Just an Experience shearing.
Now imagine that i was able to buy 100pcs of that Same Machine i would have being able to get it lesser than 30Usd and the total cost of shipping would have being cheaper as i will just have paid CVM for Per Cubic Meter Space in a Container. Lets join Force, We can Achive it.

[size=16pt][b]NO[/b][/size]. Aliexpress only accepts Ecobank VISA card. Go to any branch and ask them to issue you a VISA card linked to your account. They will charge you only N1,000 for it. Note that it will take btw 4-5days for you to get it.
Goodluck.

9free:

[size=16pt]Yes!!!![/size]. A normal savings account will do. Also if you're opening a new account, tell them to issue you the VISA card and not Verve because by default they are programmed to issue out the Verve card.
I use that account solely for online transaction.
My Life saving dey cool for GTB.....

DTalented:

klens: Someone else should check on this x7 issue. can't use mine for 2hrs. with 3g 20% brighness

C. whyte:
Just seeing a great idea once more on this thread come alive.
Pull resources together and gain the market.
My advice.
Gather as many people as possible to deposit a total sum sufficient enough to procure about 200 tabs. And ask the manufacturer to brand it. Say "NairaTab", NairaPad"

Set aside some money for aggressive advertising even on nairaland ads. Create a Facebook page for the brand and also use Facebook ads.

Arrange a delivery team in few states.

Make it transparent enough.

The sky is just the beginning.

Manutd19:
not everyone is on whatsapp mate.

princeuk21: what about people who use laptop and pc how will they log on to whatsapp??

mayorall: Interested in the mini washing machine stuff but need it for personal usage first before I can recommend it for people. I guess that's when I can advertise very well.

Imanuelle:


this is great.
i need to contact you.
Besides , since we're trying to make profit , we would have to do our best to cut costs.


Now, to the house,

I think like minds should pair up.

Whatever goes in your area , find someone to team up with.

You Got one there

^^^Don't you think that would be haphazard? I think there should be a unanimous agreement as to who the team leads should be, some sort of nomination, 2 to 3 persons to start with. Then let others align with them, and then it takes off from there. Also, there should be some criteria for choosing team members, guys, we're talking of money here o, and if things are not carefully thought out and executed, then most definitely, this idea is DOA! I think it's best to work with small numbers first, see how it works out before enlisting more people. Just a thought...

Imanuelle:


what can you tell us about the one you purchased ?

2s£xy:
Yes... Thank you.

I wanted to see if someone could buy the idea and also encourage it before I create a thread specifically for it and not derail this thread.

Does anyone here support this idea apart from my bro? It doesn't matter if you will participate or not, but what do you think about the idea? A company might be built with just this small move!

I need supports.
