Through this article, we would like to report to all Hong Kong parents the outrageous behaviors of a Hong Kong
baby book selling company MiKids. MiKids fraudulently take huge pecuniary advantage of many innocent Hong Kong
Parents through non-ethical means, and they made exorbitantly disproportional profit out of every single sale.
Their abominable cheating behaviors should be made known to hundreds and thousands of Hong Kong parents,
otherwise every couple could be their next prey.
MiKids in fact didn’t “develope” any of their book products as claimed on their website http://www.MiKids.com.hk.
However they “cleverly” misled customers into thinking they actually did so when they talked to the parents.
They did nothing but buying books from outside Hong Kong (yeah, it has to be outside Hong Kong, so rarely
Hong Kong people knew the real price) and selling them to Hong Kong parents at a 4 or 5 times higher price!
Step 1 of their series, “your baby can read & learn”, invented by Dr. Titzer in U.S. , is being sold worldwide
for about 200 US$ and with 30 days trial period. Hong Kong Parents can directed buy from their website with
additional about 50US$ shipping fee. While MiKids is selling exactly the same thing for about 800 US$ (6100 HK$)
and without any refund right after you buy. Why? The reason is very simple: their price is 4 times higher,
any buyer will ask for a refund if knowing the real value.
Let us see how MiKids is lying to Hong Kong Parents:
Interestingly MiKids claimed (in their ads and on their website)
http://www.MiKids.com.hk/About.aspx
「小小啟蒙系列」在家長的愛戴下，更屢獲殊榮，奪得2007 及2008年度國際嬰兒、兒童用品博覽「大會指定幼兒教材」、
「2008Parents Magazine優質教育品牌」及「2007父母十大信心家庭品牌」.
“大會指定幼兒教材”, 2008Parents Magazine優質教育品牌, “2007父母十大信心家庭品牌”? Why would
any parent love a resold book series at 5 times higher price? Every couple would regret and hate MiKids when they found out the truth behind the sky-high price! Or in the first place, do they actually own any brand at all? MiKids did nothing but simply buy books from elsewhere and resell here at Hong Kong!
Let’s check what Hong Kong Parents really say about MiKids through the baby-kingdom forum: login to
http://forum.baby-kingdom.com
and search MiKids. Are there any positive comments at all? Everyone is commenting they are selling at sky-high prices!
How did they win the claimed title? Or are they even qualified to win the awards?
Through statement like (in their ads or website)
MI Kids 於2006年成立，一直為著孩子的成長和腦部發展提供多元化的學習教材，透過互動式的學習，及多重感官的教學法， 刺激孩子的智力潛能, 在MI Kids新推出的「小小啟蒙系列」中，就分別加入了多元感官的學習元素…
MiKids is just lying to all potential buyers, and misleading Hong Kong parents into thinking that MiKids created and
developed this series (so parents can’t buy these books anywhere else, which is vital to their decision). We are just
one of many tricked Hong Kong couple. They are veryclever when they tried to do this, for instance, they say
另一方面，「小小啟蒙系列」亦得到本地多間傳媒的擁躍追訪，如“TheDinoops”、“Playing Math 小小數學繪本”、 “新知識雙語百科”的教材和互動教學法，一直備受傳媒廣泛報導，而當中一套英語教材「Your Baby can read」，更一度風靡歐美，得到外地傳媒Good MorningAmerica、CNN、CBS This Morning、TheLearning Channel及其他數個電視節目的報導。
At first sight of this statement, you would be led to believe小小啟蒙系列 is indeed very popular. However the truth"
is that the book subseries, such as “your baby can read”, which doesn’t belong to MiKids at all, are attracting
attention, not MiKids’小小啟蒙系列! They are doing nothing but deceptively rephrasing to confuse
customers! "本地多間傳媒的擁躍追訪?"Can they list all the articles by the local media? Would would
any TV news program, any newspaper report to Hong Kongpublic such a overpricing reselling company?
We investigated and pieced together information about their prices: they are selling step 1 (your baby can read & learn) for about HK$ 6000, step 2 (the Dinoops ) for HK$ 17,000, step 3 (Playing Math) for about HK$9000, step 4 (New Book of Knowledge) for about HK$ 11,000.
What about the real prices? What about the numbers they paid to get the books? What about the prices of other seller?
We investigated a little over the internet. Below we listed what we found using google (some links may be outdated as of now). Hong Kong people are in fact just one click away to getexactly the same product at a price 3 or 4 times cheaper!
Step 1 (your baby can read & learn) is from US, the real value is below HK$ 1600:
Your baby can read
You can find from other website:

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=your+baby+can+read&x=0&y=0
Step 2 (Dinoops) is from Taiwan, the real value is below HK$ 5000:
The following page shows the comments from a Taiwanese sales person:
http://verywed.com/forum/read.php?f=5&i=763291&t=763291
In Taiwan, it is sold at about 18000 Taiwan Dollar (4500HK$).
The Dinoops is very popular in Korea,the following webpage says original price 780,000 Korean Dollar (5615.62HK$) has been slashed to current price
210,000 Korean Dollar (1505.64 HK$).
Step 3 (playing math) is from Taiwan, the real value is below HK$ 4000:
Step 4 (new book of knowledge) is from Taiwan, the real value is below HK$4000:
It was sold by a Hong Kong company before as well:
http://www.times-book.com
Common senses tell us MiKids will pay a wholesale price to get these books, which should be much cheaper than the
above prices. Anyway, they are making at least HK$
40000-HK$15000=HK$25000 for each single sale!
