2 watermelons, which one do you choose ?

By Jamy

Would you pay US$10 for a water melon ? I won’t, but Kuanhoong would :) I hope he won’t get mad with me with his water melon picture :)

This is what he paid for US$10.

This is what I pay for US$2.99 without the orchid, of course.

If photographic technique is not an issue :) which one would you pay for it, my dear readers ?

I laughed so hard when I read the comment from one of my reader ant :”The bottom one look like already busuk, so pale edi, but maybe inside is same same,”

So I add on to assure him it is not busuk :)

  2. Actually, Kuanhoong’s one looks quite worth it. For US$10, you get a watermelon, half a bottle of water, a pack of tissue paper and a menu selection of exotic looking fruits and food.

  11. since made in japan watermelon so sellable, you guys better go sell MIJ watermelon la, rather blogging so hard for money. what about selling them in ebay? oopps, postage will costs more than watermelon i think *gasp!

    i think i caught jerry’s 38ness liao!

    #86
  12. and jamy, i think u should not take the pics when there’s so much light infront of you from your window or door (dunno what).

    you should let stand in at the opposite end, should look better i think.

    #87
  13. I not gonna get either one.!!! Does anyone will pay double the amount for a watermelon ?? go for “Made in India”. It just costs not more than $1. Moreover taste guaranteed :-)

  14. Oh, Jenny, is that the trick, thank you for the heads up, no wonder Kuanhoong water melon sells so well :)

    #89
  15. Ok, now we are getting hot now !
    These are votes here :
    Cirnelle : Malaysia
    Benedict : India
    Ken : Indonesia
    Jenny, 38kia and Kuanhoong : Japan
    Jamy : America

    I wonder how about Bee from Travel and living, BE from A Malaysian in France and Colormecrazy AMalaysianAustralian in Germany would vote. I shall invite them in to vote ! And we shall see which get the highest vote.

    I shall think of a Floridian native price for the winner, ha ha ha ha.

    I very poor, so if there is made in India watermelon sell in Malaysia at the cheapest price, I would buy that!

    #91
  17. I would go for Malaysia watermelon since I’m currently staying in Malaysia, and the last 2 times I bought the watermelon they were really sweet & juicy, only thing is that I bought too many types of fruit & I didn’t pay attention to the price (FYI: I don’t pay attention to the price of most things but I swear I will change this stupid habit from now on, in fact I had started changing, now I know how much my son’s formula milk costs etc).

    #92
  18. Jamy, I support u ok? 2.99 cheap cheap mah!! : )

    #93
  19. Bee , congratulation on that :”FYI: I don’t pay attention to the price of most things but I swear I will change this stupid habit from now on, in fact I had started changing, now I know how much my son’s formula milk costs etc).”

    The journey of a mother :) Join the party, girl :)

    How com when we were single, we can live life without knowing price , ha ? :)

    I lived all my life without knowing how much a pack of rice cost ? :)

    Thank you for participate on the voting.

  20. Blur mommy,
    U very ada hati one lah.
    I will remember you for very very long if my memory don’t fail me :)
    Cheers !

  21. Ok Jamy… since your water melon cheaper than KH, I pay for your melon. :)

    But just for the heck of really paying it, I won’t buy both your melons. Too damn expensive. :D

    #96
  22. And another trick Jamy, the pepsi bottle indicates how big the watermelon is because we all roughly knows the size of the pepsi bottle.

    But we don’t know how big is your vase leh. So, photographs, one of the most important aspects of selling in eBay!

    Sorry, i’m crazy. eat sleep ebay & blogging :p

    #97
  23. Neo,
    Sounds like you are voting for Indian’s watermelon.
    Indian’s Watermelon got 2 votes now.
    Now we see if Ken’s cheap war strategies work or my branding theory work in this watermelon
    Cheers and stay tune.
    We are still waiting for Bee Ean and ColorCrazy, orang European !

  24. PapaJoneh,
    If you are not going to choose one of these, are you going to buy Indian’s watermelon or Sabah’s watermelon :) ?

    #100
  25. Jenny,
    U never fail to amaze me !
    Good point !
    I believe the the most important ingredients of a successful entrepreneur is U eat, U sleep, U go jamban, U walk, U talk, U blog, U yawn, U sing (like our friend, U know lah, I don’t want to mention name :) , U think of your buzinesss :) . Betul ? :)

    #101
  26. This is turning out to be one helluva Tembikai Lelong. Going once? Going twice? Dah jual!!!

    #105
  27. I definitely support my own country’s product. So, Sabah Melon it is. :D

  28. Neo

    Is there any Indian watermelon in Malaysia? :)

    #110
  29. I wouldn’t pay for either. I don’t fancy watermelon too much. It is good though for a hot afternoon. I haven’t eaten one in 8 months. :)

    My hubby does not like watermelon until one of our friends who said water melon contain one of the same ingredient for chemotherapy (cancer prevention), he eat very lazin now :)

    #117

    #118
  32. i don’t need to spend any money to eat water melon, because i will ask the melons for free. HAHAHAHA. Either one will do ;)

    #119
  33. Che Kui,
    It is wonderful to hear that you get your melons for free.
    Might be you like to share you 5 strategized way to get a free lemon :) Then Kuanhoong and me might save our total RM 45.50 and might be we will consider sening over to your paypal account :)
    Have a wonderful weekend, you take care :)

    Hahaha, I think you misunderstand me, I meant same same means, outside is looks busuk, but inside is still same as the USA made one. Since you post the picture of the made in Malaysia one, looks good ma. So I choose made in Malaysia, support local product mah~ As long as it’s good lah~

    ant,
    No, no, no, u sudah salah lah :)
    The 1st melon is a Japanese melon , taken by our famous Kuanhoong :)
    The 2nd one is I bought from USA.
    ha ha ha ha. Can you imagine a gila post can generate into so many gila comments :)

    #184
  42. ant

    Aiyo, Im so blur….. Then I buy USA one la~ Hahaha…

    #223
  43. Jamy

    Yaloh, US one only cost US$2.99, so more so red, I don’t know why this Cirnelle want to chose the Japan one , just because of the tissue paper, gila ini woman :) :):)
    She not very focus :) , look at what she looks at : “For US$10, you get a watermelon, half a bottle of water, a pack of tissue paper and a menu selection of exotic looking fruits and food.”
    People ask her to choose water melon only, she goes so long winded and choose all the other barang :) , Che sin ini ah moi :) :):)

    #226
  44. Of course I choose the cheap one lah. With watermelon it’s so hard to tell from the outside. So, even if inside not so nice, at least I did not spend a lot of money buying it lor!
