A few weeks ago i asked if anyone was interested in an android tablet if I could do a wholesale order and get them cheap. I got a fairly overwhelming response, so i looked into it more.
I have decided on the Zenithink ZT-180 Android to import, and i have worked out the prices to be approximately $350 each. This takes into account, purchase, shipping, GST, and hopefully any other hidden costs.

There is NO 3G or GPS, however there is an optional extra for this available online.
When ordering I am also ordering a leather case for them (included in the $350) which has a keyboard built in.
If you are interested in one of these for approximately $350, please read on.
IMPORTANT!
I will be buying them online in a large portion from an unknown company, whilst I will do everything in my power to make sure i dont get ripped off (its my money too!) there is a slim chance that this may happen. The money is in escrow so I’m fairly sure we’re ok on this front (they don’t get my money until i get the goods)
Payment must be made up front as I do not have the funds to cover everyone elses items!
There is no profit made anywhere in this for me. The price may vary depending on currency conversions at the time and any other unknown fees incurred. If its under the $350, then you will get any leftover. If its more, then I’ll let you know (though I can’t imagine it will be much if it is).
Ideally I need a minimum order of 15 of these before its viable, I can still do it with less, however the buying power is lost somewhat.
Yes you can search around and see other prices on ebay etc, you will find there are a few people that list these at around $220-$300USD each without the leather wallet/cover thing, however i suspect that having the leather cover is probably something most people will want (we can opt for or not either way).
Most android tablets from china are cloned, which leaves the Market unusable, this is fixable, I’ll do it myself and upgrade it to 2.2 if necessary before passing them onto you. You are welcome to take it as it is and do that yourself if you want 🙂
So, you still want in?

Once i get 15 people keen, ill send out my bank details to the first 15 who email (or more if i get more) and we will buy.
Yes please, also one for Yanni too 🙂
