Apple iPhone 5 competition on Facebook
• Ed. The Apple iPhone 4 competition on Facebook, would you say that was a success?
• Li. Oh, definitely. We’ve learned in this business that we will always have critics with whatever we do, but those that choose to take part, always benefit. The person that won that Apple iPhone 4 competition was probably the first to own one in South Africa. I see she’s also taking part in our new Apple iPhone 5 competition on Facebook.

• Ed. Tell us about the Apple iPhone 5 Facebook promotion?
• Li. We are sending one person to join a Smokoo team member in New York City where we will buy the iPhone 5 for them at the famous Apple iStore on 5th Avenue. The rest of our users that secure the Apple iPhone 5 auctions will receive their iPhone 5’s when we get back from the Big Apple.
Apple iPhone 5 smartphone
• Ed. How can you call it the Apple iPhone 5 when it’s not an official name yet?
• Li. When you look at all the talk from the top journalists around the world they are all calling it the Apple iPhone 5. We are just following suit.
Apple iPhone 5 release date
• Ed. True, but there’s not even a release date yet?
• Li. Our innovative auction system allows us to pre-sell items, something our users love. We did the same with the Apple iPad, the iPad 2 and the iPhone 4. We also did it with a Sony 3D TV before the worldwide launch. The moment the item launches, we deliver it to our users. We’ve got the credibility. In the auction descriptions we always specify the T’s and C’s so as not to create the wrong impression. |
