I've paid US $ 130 (82 pounds) during one of my business trips to UAE (Dubai). That was good price to me.

here they are 140£ but then thats including our 25% sales tax
so ordering it from uk would save but some money but would make it a ***** to RMA

How much would that be in US dollars? thanx.

Rofl. At least there is one sane person in this subsection (IMO)
Make that 3, aint no freakin way im paying 1g for any phone, I dont care if it wipes my butt for me and calls me daddy.
Im waiting for my 6800 to really take a dump or accidentally get coughranoverbymytruckcough and then exchange it and pay the balance or something like that. To shell out that kind of money, albeit for a gnarly phone is just way out of line.
$1078 in the US at smart-mobile-gadgets.com

Depends on the company you're ordering from, usually you don't have to pay VAT for export phones. But you'll still have to pay the 7% gst at the customs if you declare it to be more than 400 sgd.
You intending to get one from where?

Was thinking of getting one either from the UK or expansys HK. Emailed expansys HK last week and the staff said that even though its not on the website yet, its available for pre-order and stock should be in by tomorrow (18/08/2008) its going for HK$7000. Shipping will be another HK$150 to Singapore. Are you from Singapore too?
You guys are also impatient lawl. Those of you in the US, can get a AT&T Fuze soon enough for about $550/$650 w/o contract.

1€ back (70 € gathered)

Hi! it is a long time since I last flashed pcarvalho's ROMs but I think he is very much responsible for many of us being able to flash and cook 6.5 roms on our beloved but rather old polaris.
I propose a quick poll just to gather 250€ so he can continue with his production (or do what he wants). As soon as we have 250 voters we close the thread and send the euro via paypal. It is fair?
Already donated (since pcar' polaris dead):
15 € x 1 = 15: whitealien
10 € x 5 = 50: Kulen, Tamirl, vld75, fldin, masterplan_79
5 € x 1 = 5: nemiers
Willing to donate
10 €: jopost
5 users (no amount specified): cruiserrr, skumara, redirecttonothing, nemiers, squeeza
12 more not identified (please leave a message since I thougth I could get the names from the poll)
Offering 2nd hand polaris deal:
Ronok (Belgium): 150 transportation and insurance included.
Vestlink (somewhere in Europe): willing to donate his device to a polaris developer
DaRacerz, willing to sell it as well since he changes to a new phone
good idea!!
it would be a good idea to post a link to this on pcharvalo's ROM thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506043&page=733
It's been here a few days already and I just noticed it.
I believe most people, like me, only read threads they follow, and just sometimes check for new threads.
and from the name of the thread is not too understandable what it is about, so many people probably just skip it.
If somebody want to donate more please write in thread here so we can see how much we can gather. or even better just pay to pcharvalo via paypal and write that you did.
And perhaps even less than 250 € can be enough if he wants to buy a new (used) one instead of repairing his:
and he certainly does deserve a new one for all he did in Polaris development.
he lost his device trying to make ours better :-(
ready to donate
I sent 10 EUR. via PayPal
I'v used his geat ROM long time. I'v never sent money, but it is right time to make donate.
Thank you Mr. pcarvalho.
I'm honored to donate 10€ to Mr. Pcarvalho, for his fantastic's ROM's.
Thank you!!!
ready to donate
p.s. have you got positive answer from Pcarvalho, that if phone is bought that he continues development?
Well, I personally give my opinion in the subject: it is one € (or more) back for the hours he has devoted to the polaris community, not in exchange for what he may want to do in the future.
That's your option, nobody is here to judge anybody, pleope willing to give some money for the job done so far can already donate the money. If you want to donate only if he continues the development, then wait...
Polaris donation for Mr. Pcarvalho
I already sent the 10€ to Mr. Pcarvalho ( paypal ), for his fantastic's ROM's and his support to the old !!! polaris.
Thank you!!!

Hi all,
first of thanks for all this, i'm truly amazed at you all, i wasn't going to get a polaris cause, lets face it, its 2,5 years old and newer devices with similar price tags are available, getting one is not a very good deal (unless you have very basic nokia models, then i fully recommend it ).
but as always this community changed my way of thinking. even though my polaris died you all are working to help me get another one. so...
i'm now currently trying to find a way to fix mine (or get one that's working and in mint condition) and so all current donations will be used to get it working.
once i do get it, rom development will obviously continue. i have some kind of customization disease. all my phones are always "make it mine"...
so, thanks for those that are helping, my only regret is COM5 Branch (235XX) is currently paralyzed (more or less since my device died), that means lots of time was wasted that could have meant lots of fixes...hope i can fix that soon...
cheers
I have already donated 10€. Thanks pcarvalho.
I just ordered a new phone (the "desire" was too great ). I was going to sell my touch cruise on ebay, until I saw this topic. I can sell my device to you... I haven't figured out how much I want for it though. I think the used ones go for 100-150 nowadays.
I think it's better to send my device to somebody who knows the device and is going to develop it further, rather than some random guy. Although I know I will probably get a smaller share.
What do you think?
in appreciation of the few POLARIS chefs
Hi cruiserr!
thanks for starting this poll. I donated to pcar before, since I have been using his ROMs for quite somewhile now and they really added value to my otherwise lame phone. Unfortunately there are too many leechers out there that can not appreciate hard coding/ porting work. Still, I voted to donate again for a replacement phone for pcarvalho. However, I think sending his one to repair is not the cheapest way here - besides the ideological value. We could watch the bay for getting them around 150 maybe.
Regards
sqeeza

Shipping and handling costs to Portugal are about 30 € with insurance and tracking information. Without insurance and tracking it's 10 euro. Delivery time should be between 3 and 10 days.
I'd be happy with 150 € all-in (120 for the device). I can't take pictures now, because I don't have an other camera than the one on the polaris. I'll send them asap.
BTW i'm from Belgium, not Germany

Am I being scammed?

Hello
I am trying to sell my Captivate on Ebay. I have had 4 different people - all located in the Ukraine inquire about the phone. Noone else from anywhere has asked about it.
Is there something about the Captivate and Ukraine?
Maybe it's one person with multiple accounts, or some of her/his friends.
Doesn't matter where they are from as long as they pay, and do NOT ship the phone until you have the money in your hands.
Phones are hard to get over seas and can be resold for 10x what they pay for it

Use paypal for take the payment. And just ship after check that you have the money in your account.
Be cautious. I've had people try to scam me when I sold my Archos 101. They offered $100 more than what I was selling it for, but the catch is they wanted me to send the Archos to his cousin(who was also out of state).It just didn't seem right . Also have a friend that dealt with a buyer from another country. The check or whatever they sent him ended up costing him money somehow. So I only deal with local buyers. Just my 2 cents
Thanks for the tips guys
I wouldnt do it! I would never buy over seas and if you sold i would go thre PayPal for sure and dont send till money in hand. Good luck!

Keep in mind that PayPal will freeze your *entire* account for the duration if the buyer files a dispute.... you better be able to PROVE s/he got the phone beyond a shadow of a doubt. Just fyi.

Ebay have a buyer/seller protection system, in that case they have to prove that he didnt sent the phone or isnt as was in the description. And if the buyer want the money back have to ship back to the seller. You can read about it in the ebay security center, i bought my phone in ebay, took a week to get from US to Venezuela.

As long as you get the money, who cares?
Sold an iPhone on eBay to a guy in Ukraine. The tracking system showed that it never arrived and he got his money back through PayPal. I was out an iPhone, eBay's fees, and the cost of shipping.
My local PO told me they hear things like that all the time about Ukraine. The postal system is apparently awful there.
Edit: Just because you get the money doesn't put you in the clear, PayPal put negative balance on my account and called me everyday after the dispute threatening to turn me over to collections if I didn't pay them back.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
also require them to buy insurance, that will protect u and the buyer if the package supposedly never arrives
not worth the hassle or risk you should have no problem selling to a buyer in US or Canada both of which tend to be safer than say Nigeria or Ukraine.
Good point on the insurance. So in case it does get "lost", my money won't be completely lost.
Just in case anyone doesn't know the check scam. The way it works is they send you a check for the product. It looks legit, even your bank will think its real. Banks will normally put the money into your account within 1-3 days if the amount of the check is below a certain amount. They do this before the check ever clears with the bank listed on the check (many times its an overseas bank so it takes even longer to clear). So what happens is that you get your money, ship the product, and then a couple weeks later the bank calls you up and says you owe them that money back because the check bounced. Or worse yet, the bank deducts it directly from your account, which happens, and you get overdrawn. Now you also owe overdraft fees. Problem is you cant hold on to the product for the length of time it takes for the check to fully clear, many times its 2-4 weeks.
So lesson is use paypal, cash, or even western union. No checks ever. There are plenty of scams out there but this one is one of the easiest for people to pull off.

The Official Vorbeth A700 Replacement Fund: Closed for Business

partzman2 said:
Since I've been rooting and using custom ROMS, this is the 3rd great dev I've seen that has needed a new device to continue his/her fine work. x0xhellx0x with the LG G2x, dropped his phone and we the community rallied and bought him another phone to continue developing his HellFire series. Civato's Acer A500 died on him and the community again rallied to replace his A500, to continue his development.
I'm new to the A700, love what I see in this ROM and would like to see development continue. Let's all get together and see if we can help keep Vorbeth continue developing for our device.

I posted that last month and after getting Vorbeth permission, we are finally here. Now to get to the meat of the matter. It's gonna take around $600 to get this done (A700, shipping, taxes, and paypal fees). We need to know if there is enough monetary commitment here. So let's see those first, then I'll post a donate link. I don't want to get through the hassle of returning money to someone who didn't read this. :drool
I'm in for $10 now, more to come.
[UPDATE] We have reached our goal of $300. I will be purchasing a used a700 from amazon.co.uk for $£190 and getting it shipped to Vorbeth
A701
and $10 from me.
$50 From the Antinerd, to pick up the pace a little ... not that much considering what I paid for this tablet!
Thanks bud.
Would you believe it costs the same to buy in U.S. and ship to U.K. as it is to buy in U.K.
50$ from me
Running total
So far the running total is: $120
I think an UK a700 is cheaper than a US one + taxes.
Is there a british hère to confirm ?
I'm good for $25.
$10.00 from me too!

It is a little cheaper to buy one off of amazon.co.UK, difference is about $4 cheaper. The goal of $600 has wiggle room to cover PayPal fees and any last minute costs.
$25 from me.
€10 (If it's still a valid currency) that equals $13.
Here in the Netherlands this tab costs around €400 -> $520 (maybe usefull for the comparison it's an awfull lot more expensive then in the us)

Re: The Official Vorbeth A700 Replacement Fund
What about getting a second hand A700? It is about a year old there so easy to find...
Sent from my A700 using xda premium
Is it enough to buy Vorbeth a Tablet?
Does he needs also a LAPTOP or PC for cr-development?
Personally, I want Vorbeth to have something reliable to develop for. Don't want him to get a tab that's been messed with by someone who doesn't know what they are doing.That's why I prefer to get him, but I'm just someone who wants to get a dev back developing.
Running total: approx. $210
Where are all the people who use Vorbeth's rom and kernel? Lets give him a hand!

Which of these 2 variants w/128GB+6GB, are best for the Australian market/conditions?

1)
http://www.samsung.com/hk_en/business/business-products/mobile-device/smartphones/SM-G9550ZKGTGY
2)
https://www.flipkart.com/samsung-galaxy-s8-plus-midnight-black-128-gb/p/itmeuggehq2umb7u
https://shop.samsung.com/in/galaxy-s8-plus-128gb.html
I just got the 1st one, but starting to think it was a bad move, I suspect the latter would've been a MUCH better fit for Australian market/conditions, especially should I want to eventually flash to a more localised ROM etc.
Also the G9550 supposedly doesn't have B28-700mhz (though not the end of the world, this isn't to be scoffed-at given the areas I frequent), but on the official product page it does, just freq-check & some other resources say it doesn't. Also seems possible that it's 2G-only on the second SIM, but I think that's unlikely.
The 2nd variant I linked above I don't think (?) has any of these issues, plus it uses the same basic SoC as the Aussie & Int. variants.
Any thoughts and advice on this, are very much appreciated... :good:

Definitely the second one.
You get the Australian CSC as soon as you pop your SIM in, software updates on time, better LTE band and carrier aggregation (LTE-A) support, more devs have the Exynos variants compared to the SD835 variant and the FD model allows 4G on SIM Slot 1, and 3G/2G on SIM Slot 2, unlike some phones which only allow 2G on Slot 2.
Sigh, I suspect my importer's going to claim they can't get it, & I'll be forced to just wear the one I have, OR pay a hefty restocking fee, BUT be without both. >.>
Late this arvo they messaged their HK-based partner &or parent co. (not sure of exact arrangements) called MyMobile (in Oz was formerly known as UniqueMobiles, but they've taken up the MM branding/naming).
Sigh, what to do, what to do... Ugh...
Given how things have evolved/progressed in my interactions with them so far;
I don't think they'll be reasonable with regards to any extra costs/penalties.
Especially if MyMobile HK claims it can't obtain the SM-G955FZKGINS SKU.
They'll prolly try to hit me with a 25% restocking fee...
If they do & they refuse to budge, I'll just wear it & never buy from them again.
I've kept everything in pristine condition, as much as can be, the main box had already been opened anyway!*
Then I'll need to find someone who can import it, or who's willing to "export".
I would greatly prefer a well-established & locally-based importer though.
One that has a presence, & ideally even a SC, in South East Queensland.
*the phone had already been turned-on and setup/configured, had to factory reset it so I could go through the normal setup process, but 1st had to work out how the heck to change the UI from Chinese to English, as it was almost impossible to navigate before that!

Apologies for not seeing this. Mention/quote me next time so I get a notification.
I'm not surprised it's hard for importers or anyone to get their hands on that particular variant since it's literally only being sold in India.
There's 2 things you can do, neither are easy.
1) Ask if Flipkart will ship to you in Australia and then find out if any customs duties or taxes will apply if you import a phone yourself.
2) Wait for Samsung to release the 6GB/128GB variant elsewhere.
The Pearl Black S7 edge with 128GB of storage was only launched in China and Korea first, and then it made its way to the rest of the world including Pakistan with the G935FD model number which worked everywhere.

Yeah, pricks are gunna hit me w.a 20% restocking fee, didn't have time today, will likely drop it in tomm, everything's in pristine condition, there better not be any hidden "gotchas"! I also paid $70AUD for an extended warranty service, they better not try & charge the 20% with that included in the total cost, & I expect to be FULLY refunded that $70, the phone itself was $1068 AUD, so the 20% fee should be applied only against that.
The explanation was vague/brief, but it sounds like their people in HK just don't want to get it as a once-off, generally they only like to procure these things if they're being bought in bulk. Personally think they're stupid trying to sell the G9550xxx as their 128GB option (they've sold FAR more G955FD SKU's), this 128GB variant would do much better with enthusiasts in Australia, but they've just ignored that line of thinking.

I won't go through with it tonight, I'll wait till tomm. morn, to see if I get feedback from others I emailed after 1GrandTrunk.
I may also call them (& a few others) tomm. morn... Does 1GrandTrunk look legit/credible IYO?
Cheers!

1GrandTrunk is the 1st mob I approached (geezus they took their sweet time, about 5hrs before I got this, & 2 chase-up calls, 3 in total),

Considering they've given you such a detailed breakdown of the fees, I guess they're legit.
Could you send me the links of the other importers you contacted?
....
@murtaza02
Mainly reaching out to folks I found in this search: https://www.google.com.au/search?q=indian+mail+forwarding+service
1GrandTrunk aren't even one of the top hits in that search, they were buried in a Qora discussion (which was one of the top hits)!
Going to bed ASAP, had waaay too many very late nights lately, time to break the bad sleeping habits/cycles & get up very early (for me) for a change. I worked odd hours for many years, so I've kept those bad patterns since starting my own business, in some ways I suspect that's just my natural circadian rhythm (we all have very different ones). Alas, mine seems to be one that the majority of people don't have, & that's not good for "living in the real world", so, time to change them! Grumble grumble.

Just realised, the total cost in AUD is insane, even before all the other expenses, the cost of just the phone is $1524 AUD!
You can get the G9550 in Oz for about $500 less than that, perhaps even 550, & the 64GB G955Fxxx SKU's are much cheaper than the G9550xxx's.
I got my G9550xxx for $1068, but I had some other stipulations/requirements, else I could've easily gotten it for ~$50 cheaper.
I'm not even sure what some of those extra expenses they've listed are for, will have to ask them in the morn, ugh, this is a "no go" I think! :-S
With the starting price so high, it doesn't matter which one of these guys I go with, I don't think it's going to be worth it???
Sigh, will have to call MyMobile & tell them I want to keep this G9550 now, maybe I'll still return it & just buy a 64+4GB dual-SIM G955Fxxx from them.
Hopefully they'll ditch the the bloody restocking fee if I do that, if they won't, then there's no way I'll buy it from them!!!

That sucks man. I guess getting the 64GB G955FD will be better and then in the future if Samsung decides to launch the 6/128 variant outside India, you can always trade yours in for that variant.
@murtaza02
Is it possible that him doing it in USD is just throwing me off;
And pricing might actually be much better than what I'm seeing after doing the convert myself?
No, surely that doesn't make sense, man need sleep...
