On 12th September 2014, Pre order for Iphone 6 and Iphone 6 plus was made available on the official Apple website including US, France, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore, United Kingdom, Australia, and Japan. Way before the official announcement of Iphone 6 and 6 plus, rumours were spread around the world, and China had becoming the first to produce Clone Iphone 6 and 6 plus including accessories like phone cases on its Website like Aliexpress.com, Dx.com, Alibaba.com. The price of a clone phone would be like ranged from 100+USD to 300+USD. This is one of the sellers from Aliexpress.com
In Singapore Apple official website, user can click on "buy now" to pre order Iphone 6 and 6 plus. I just tried and currently its stated unavailable. (Well, people will click to buy it like crazy I guess!!) Here is the list price for Pre order Iphone 6 and Iphone 6 plus in Singapore.Apple Singapore

While it seems to be attractive towards the listed price, the available Iphone 6 quantity will usually dissatisfied the buyer. It again opens an opportunity for businesses of reselling the Iphone purchased. Here is a price list(In Singapore dollar) of Iphone 6 resale over the social media. Price shown in the list is price offered by the reseller. The resale price will rise higher than this listed price. Go and sell your Iphone 6 now if you managed to get one or two in your hand and it's a pretty good deal to earn some pocket money.

In Malaysia, we still can notice resellers marking up the price of pre-order of Iphone 6 and 6 plus. In lazada.com.my and lelong.com.my, the pre-order prices of Iphone 6 and 6 plus had been marked up extremely high. Since Iphone 6 and 6 plus is not officially available for pre-order, the easiest way is to make a comparison based on price listed on Apple Singapore.

**Rate of SGD to MYR as of 20 September 2014, price is for reference only.

128GB- SGD 1448 (RM3697)         RM6279                        RM5099             SGD2050 (RM5233)

Based from the price of list of Reseller in Singapore willing to pay for, which they will sell it with higher price later on, the price listed in both Lazada.com.my and Lelong.com.my seems acceptable, it's just the matter of waiting time for the Iphone to reach you is the main point in considering whether the listed price is worthy or not.

So, when will the Iphone 6 and Iphone 6 plus officiallly launched in Malaysia??As for now, there are still rumours everywhere but without the official announcement from Apple Malaysia, all we can do is just wait. For those who urged to get Iphone 6 or 6 plus before it officially landed on Malaysia, its no other ways but finding a trustful reseller, whether it's from Malaysia or Singapore, with the hope that they won't delay your shipment and disappointing you with what you've paid.

Selling counterfeit products on Ebay, Mudah.my, Lelong.com.my

After getting few cases that I've ordered from Aliexpress.com, I was wondering whether there is market to selling my stuff on whether EbayMudah.my, or Lelong.com.my. I started to list up the phone case on mudah.my and lelong.com.my and there were no problem with the listing on these two websites, and successfully get few cases sold in few days. Since both websites were based in Malaysia, I bet the effort of fighting against counterfeit products listed were not strong. (In fact, there is category in lelong.com.my stated "Looks Alike"!! haha)






After that, while i was trying to copy the whole description of the phone case advertisement to put it on Ebay, I received a reminder Email of Ebay account suspension. That's what Ebay's effort of fighting against counterfeit products, where my listing price was like"RM18 for a Spigen slim amour hard case for Iphone". Does it sound like the price of an original phone case?
