BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – IN an era of advanced technology where almost everything is accessible via the world wide web, Grey's Games has made it possible for Caribbean islanders to access the latest gadgets without the usual hassle of internet shopping.
The company is the brilliant innovation of Andrae Grey, who hails from Taylor’s Range, Basseterre, but currently resides in the US. After graduating from the Clarence Fitzroy Bryant College and awarded the St. Kitts Nevis Chamber of Industry and Commerce Award for Best Result in A-Level Business, Grey extended his studies at the University of Alabama. He subsequently graduated with Honours in Marketing and Human Resource Management and later completed his Masters Degree in Management from the same institution.
CEO Grey told SKNVibes he was inspired to start GreysGames.com when he recognized that it was “very inconvenient to get high-tech devices from the US to the Caribbean region”. He explained that he was thus prompted to start a business that would provide gaming products to the islands of the Eastern Caribbean as easily and efficiently as possible.
“It was very inconvenient to order items from overseas. There was a lot of hassle with getting an international bank card and the shipping, which was hardly ever direct, would have been too expensive. But, as we progress into a more advance technological period, such items should be widely accessible to all game-lovers across the EC region. ~~Adz:Right~~
“It is definitely not the case where one size fits all. This website was designed specifically for the people of the Eastern Caribbean.”
Grey's Games has been in existence from October 2007, and its website was launched two months ago and is fully functioning, serving all the Eastern Caribbean countries with quality goods and services. Gaming products include new and used games, accessories and systems for the Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS, PSP, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2 and even PC accessories.
The website offers a one-stop avenue for all gaming and technology needs with prices in USD and the ECD equivalent. The site even has a currency converter to make calculations even simpler. It accepts local bank cards, whether debit or credit, once they bear Visa, MasterCard or Discover logos, eliminating the obstacle of having to obtain an international bank card to order games.
The site also removes the need to send items to a US address because for one reasonable price and items are sold and shipped to the island without hassle and ‘without a middleman’. Ordering is easy and convenient and products are delivered to the islands within 8 working days, making shipping and handling worries non-existent.
Grey thanked his parents Thenford and Angela Grey and his wife Ashley Grey who have all supported him in the initial stages of the business. He informed that in the near future, the business would be undergoing some expansion to serve the entire Caribbean region with similar and even better deals.
He said a visit to www.greysgames.com would offer an entirely different approach to typical internet shopping as Grey's Games delivers high-quality “EC games to EC gamers”.
