January 2007 sees a bright start with MyKindaPrices.com the first stop for internet shoppers

As each year sees new record sales for online retailers and the number of broadband users increases throughout South Africa there is the opportunity to give shoppers real shopping power that is free and comes at the click of the button. This power is knowing who is selling the product you are interested in , and the price the Retailer is charging for it which comes through using a price comparison website - MyKindaPrices.com

This is where MyKindaPrices.com comes onto the scene, giving the user at the click of a button the knowledge they need, to make the best purchase - saving them time and money! MyKindaPrices.com came onto the scene after Daniel Bailey saw how it helped and empowered the customers in the United Kingdom and the amount of time and money that was saved. He realised that South Africa desperately needed this and that it would be a great way in to increase competitiveness between the South African retailers.

How many of us have been in the situation where we buy ourselves an MP3 player only to find one of your friends has bought the same player but paid R200 less for it... That's when it really eats at you but this is now coming to an end through websites such as MyKindaPrices.com

MyKindaPrices.com has seen great initial success within the first month and a half of going live with over 8,000 unique visitors. MyKindaPrices.com also has numerous different advertising campaigns starting in South Africa and in the United Kingdom . We asked Mr. Bailey why he is advertising in the United Kingdom to which he responded "There are an unconfirmed number of 300,000 to 1,000,000 South Africans living and working in the UK, of which all have friends and family back home and what easier way for them to buy them presents etc than through the Internet. I have also heard so many South Africans in the UK wonder where it is cheaper to buy something. Now through MyKindaPrices.com they have access to all this information and it is a great market for online SA retailers as everyone in the UK has far greater internet access."

MyKindaPrices.com hinted to us that there are many systems currently in development that will bring the power to the customers far quicker. Looking at the startling success rate of MyKindaPrices.com after a month and a half I can only see it becoming the first stop site for all SA shoppers and UK expats shopping online and offline.
