we learn how to beat the obstacles and use the opportunities.

Translation of the above sentence:我们学会：迎接挑战、抓住机会。（classical sayings)
I also have learnt a lot from here.
Thank you!

So the problem is we write in english, Robinson translates using google and reads it in googlish.
He then answers in chinese and translates it using google again and it comes out as googlese.
Isn't technology wonderful?

Thanks for bearing with us Robinson.

If you would like to do some homework on South Africa's cellular networks I would suggest browsing the site mybroadband.co.za/

The 1.9Ghz tri-band phones will work in South Africa even though the 1.9 Ghz band is currently unused as far as I know.

They have recently introduced what they call '4g' in South Africa but it doesn't actually come close to conforming to the 4g international standards. It's actually 21 Mbps HSPA+ (I'm not sure how they can mistake this for the 100 Mbps 4g standard). There were mutterings that CellC was maybe going to use this higher band for this service but it's still early days yet.

I've noticed your site before, and you seem to be doing very well, is there any advice you can give me to get where you are?

Long time and no focus on this topic, I have gone to your site and had a look at it. I found most of the products from your site are the same as the others'. As we know, the price was once a most import aspects in our marketing, but we all of the customers know the avarage of the products' price, the deciding aspects comes to the quality and service.
As we have tried to do dropship well in SA, first we do maily focus on the price priority. Now we start to concentrate on the products' itself and the service. At the first starting, we only have paypal as payment method, now we have western union, visa and so on. To the shipping way, we have DHL,EMS,RPS and so on.
I do think people from south africa like the products from online shopping to be good quality and wonderful service. As we know the return of the dropshipping is very hard, esp when a large number of orders, this is also what we need to solve in the future.
That's all I can talk now. We can share our ideas on the dropshipping in the future. And I hope what I have talked about is a little help to you.

Yes it would be great if we could share ideas, I have had a look at your website too, my goal is to have the lowest prices, so that my customers are able to resell easily for a decent profit.
