Online shopping ..hmmmm interesting

Word on the street and in the newspapers of course, that Guyana is introducing an online department store for shopping in Guyana. The launch (strange to make this an event) was held on Monday at the Savannah Suite of Le Meridien Pegasus Hotel, Georgetown.
The website will enable local residents and those in the Caribbean and further overseas to shop for their relatives back home, eliminating the hassle of packaging, shipping and clearing boxes and barrels and getting prompt delivery. "Now that is what I talking about."
Giftland Office Max proprietor carried out a survey and claimed "the survey also revealed that the retail prices for items in Guyana were significantly lower than those in North American, and on the West Indian and European markets." Hmmm i not too sure how i should take this statement. Maybe because half of the goods are assembled and made in China, hence cheaper commodities you have to obviously demand a cheaper price, not to mention it will break/fade/tear up in less than a month. Beepat going all global now, he better make sure that his business is legit and that the name (at least portion of it ) is not stolen from another multi million dollar company in the states. I smell lawsuit in the making......click here
