Wholesale phones

[bashir26]

Where can I buy wholesale phones like the N95-4 or the LG prada. I found websites like alibaba.com but I'm not sure how legit some of the dealers on the website are. I also came across websites like gsmexchange, but they require you to buy 500-1000 minimum quantity. Thats retarded. It usually adds up to more than $400,000 for one cell phone model. I'm looking into buying 10-20 since I'm just starting out. Anyone know where I can buy authentic cell phones in bulk?

I really encourage you to pre-sell items or get pre-bookings for telephones. Use pictures to encourage interest.

Observe: You don't have to collect money at this stage, just check if you have a buying crowd before importing. I have imported mp3 and mp4 players myself and storage is a big pain. Also the big orders you usually are required to pay in order to get something. Many of these operators want big wholesalers to buy from them, hence the big volumes.

phones I want to sell are pretty new, and work with US 3G which is a pretty big thing. I just dont know how to get my hands on a small amount of phones for a startup like myself.

Bashir26, I think it will be pretty hard. But most suppliers do accept people the chance of buying a test sample or some kind of test samples (something to use as a showcase). Ask around.

Do you have interested customers at the moment? Someone who have committed to buying from you if you secure a deal with a supplier?
