Hi Guys,
Finally Finally Finally I was able to buy a Kindle 3 Wifi here in Riyadh... I had previously a Sony 505 and a Kindle 2 (I sold both of them) but since i moved to Riyadh / Saudi Arabia last year i couldn't find a way to buy the new kindle..
For the record, i don't like using credit cards and amazon doesn't ship the kindle to the Middle East.
There is a twisted way to get the kindle which is by shipping it to a local US address and then ship to the Middle east and pay the customs and shippign charges but this is a little bit costly and take time...
any way, I was browsing the net yesterday and i met a young guy called Abdullah.. he has his own e-store and selling kindles as a hobby
After some negotiations I met him and bought one from him today for 184$ dollars (690 Saudi Riyals) ...
Expensive I know .. but i despretly wanted a kindle 3 Wifi
..
Anyway, I just wanted to let you that it is possible to buy one here
NB. I am not affiated in any way with this guy.. I just met him and had a good experience and wanted to report it to my felow members...
His email address is
abdulla.88@live.com
Have a nice day...
