like the title says. It's the large version with the 9 inch screen.
It uses E-Ink technology for the screen so that you can still read in direct sunlight, which devices like the iPad cannot do. Also, it doesn't strain your eyes after a few minutes of reading.

Basically, it's an e-book reader, and the best one at that.

I'm located in Eastern Seoul.

750,000won OBO.

send me an email if interested at darkray16.at.yahoo.com

I just got it in the mail today, I just thought if there's a slight possibility I could make some profit on it why not try. I didn't really expect any offers.

I emailed you an offer. Are you saying it was a waste of time?

Ordering new products off the internet and trying to sell them for more than you paid?

Um... interesting business plan.

Don't quit your day job.

ordered it for myself. thought, why not try to sell it for more before I open it.

btw, what you describe is how I made a ton of money buying Wiis for 60% of their value, modding them, and reselling for 150 dollars more. of course, this was 2 years ago when Wiis were hot. it's also how a lot of resellers on ebay make money.

don't quite your day job either.

You altered the product and it sold because you added value to it.

The difference between that and this is you haven't done anything to the Kindle except bring it to Korea. UPS, FedEx, DHL, and USPS will do what you did, but for a lot less than what you are charging.

If you threw a couple hundred best sellers on there then you could probably ask a higher price since people won't need to spend the moeny/time to acquire the books.
