Tech-GSM, two thumbs up...!

I am learning E-commerce as a subject in my MBA and our lecturer most of the times mentions how electronic commerce can be applied in Sri Lankan situation. Here is a good example. I found Tech-GSM web site, a promising company entered into the electronic commerce arena, selling memory related items, and doing it successfully in the local context. They don't have many products listed in their site, most of them are pendrives, SD cards, DIMMS etc. When you want to buy, an E-mail is generated and they'll contact you via your contact details via E-mail or phone. When the order is confirmed, they'll deliver it within Colombo city limits free of charge and you can pay for it at the time of delivery.
I bought a Kingston Data traveler II 2GB pendrive for Rs 3850/- which I found very competitive pricing even when compared with the price given in Amazon.com (only Rs.150 difference). I chose DT II merely because of the data R/W speed which is mentioned as 7 MB/s write and 11 MB/s read. The maximum waiting time to write the entire capacity is less than 5 minutes. (cool...)
To my surprise, they delivered it in the same day I confirmed the order. And the product is Original Kingston which I verified via the Kingston website. Two thumbs up for Tech-GSM guys...
