Can Some please advise where I can buy a xda 2 backpack ? The only one I can find is from Expansys
try o2 customer services on 08702410202, that was where i got mine. Or try 368n oxford street (the massive o2 shop next to gap on bond street) they had some a couple of weeks ago and willl be getting more.
Thanks, I'll try Oxford street this weekend.
Backpack now in regular supply.
I bought a spare backpack in Kendal SHop, and again(for a mate) in Manchester at the weekend.
My local Shops Slough, Staines and Woking all seem to have them too according to my inbox tonight.
mrg2003 , I ordered a backpack from O2 about 10 days ago and was told that it will take up to 7 days for me to receive the backpack, called them today and was told it will take 3 months!! Do you have a contact number, email address or website where I can get the backpack.
Thanks
Backpack Availability
Hi,
Tried to order a backpack in June and was told by O2 Customer Services that the backpacks were faulty (and reading some of the posts I can beleive it) and wouldn't be available until August, so I pre-ordered one.
Phoned today and they said I should be receiving it in a couple of weeks....watch this space...

Gives an extra battery, provision for Compact Flash cards and also a VGA output

I might take one myself. Hmm, I don't suppose you can get your hands new touch screens as well?
Also, just out of curiosity, has anyone else noticed the vibrate on the xda2 getting weaker over time?
There's a lot of different resellers about and equally many roumers of who's good and who's dodgy at the moment . So that we all know who's who out there, heres a little Thread with Vendor reviews.
If you have something positive or something negitive to say about a seller please say it here.
Also please rate your vendor XX out of 10, I might add a field to the vendor wiki.

I've always used Expansys / MobilePlanet. I'm USA so MobilePlanet.
There is some atrocious whining in their forums from - for want of a better term - EXTRAnoobs.
But in my dealings they are professional, rock solid and I've never had any problems.
Onthegosolutions
I have used Maobile Planet in the past and had no specific problems.
For some years not I have been using OntheGoSolutions and I have been pleased because I always know who I am speaking with. Seems to have very little turnover and they are small enough that I can communicate with one person. They are definitley not the cheapest but have at least twice in the past lowered a price for me when I pointed out an advertised lower price elsewhere.
I bought my Raphael online from Expansys Canada... All I can say is the transaction was very easy, and shipping was SUPER FAST!!!
Ordered it Friday afternoon (approx 3pm), after a small billing problem (I gave them a different phone number from the one on my Credit Card account), confirmed the order on Monday morning at 10am (they aren't opened on weekends), I had the device in my hands Tuesday just before noon...
All in all, besides the phone # problem, I'm very happy with the transaction. It was easy, smooth and fast...
Inkino UK
To all in London and southeast
Eugene at Inkino (I never knew I needed one), 48 Tottenham Court Road www.inkino.co.uk is a mine of information on all things HTC. They are one of the few, if only, HTC Ultimate Partners and it shows.
I have bought my Trinity and now Touch Pro from there.
Yes I could probably get a few pounds off here or there but the service and honest opinions I have had from Eugene and his collegues at the sister branch 9 Great Russell Street mean that I will simply not buy from elsewhere. If I have a problem I know I can call up or drop in and I will speak to someone who knows his products inside out and is a straightforward trader.
Pleasure to do business with.
I ordered mine from Expansys UK. I live in Cyprus and Expansys is propably the best choice. Although I should have used Expansys Cyprus, the UK site was 40 Euro cheaper so I went with them. The service is excellent! Prices are among the best in the market. (630 EURO inc. DHL shipping fees).
They support Paypal, which is a big plus in safety matters, and by using DHL you get your phone in record time.
All in all, i am a happy customer=p
I'm in the US and I bought mine from Clove. A tad more expensive, but I was having problems with Google Checkout (which Handtec uses for overseas orders). Clove was a little slow to receiving my order, but once they did they shipped it out within hours. DHL got it to me in 2 days, all the way from UK to California, and by 10am no less.
One thing about Clove (that I appreciated) is that they require you to confirm the order by calling your CC company and requesting the 6-digit charge authorization number for the charge. Maybe it's an extra hassle, but it's nice to know they're serious about your security.
I would order from Clove again, but of course now I have no money.
I'm in the US and purchased from Smart Mobile Gadgets. All was as they said, including Saturday delivery.
I ordered my TP from On the Go Solutions in July. They said they would call and make sure I still wanted it before they would ship. They also shipped the day the said they would, a month in advance. I am very satisfied with the way they do business.
This is a statement of one set of circumstances and does NOT impute or call into question the credibility or otherwise of this particular organization. There may be an explanation - but so far - my client has not received one.
A client of mine bought direct in a Buy It Now eBay auction from a company with a high level of positive feedback with thousands of positive transactions on eBay. Their public site is - Popular Electronics http://www.popularelect.com.
Approx 24 hours after buying eBay declared the auction NULL AND VOID and advised my client that they do not have to pay. eBay stated:
"As eBay removed the item, you are no longer obliged to send payment for it. Please don't send money or respond to any emails from the seller.
If you've sent payment but haven't received the item, please wait a reasonable period of time for delivery. If you don't receive the item, please contact us again by clicking "Contact Us" on any eBay Help page and selecting the following contact options:
Buying and Finding>Fraud and Payment Concerns for Buyers>Item Not Received or Item Not as Described (you paid)"
My client has called and emailed the company direct and not received any replies.
I've carefully reviewed the eBay email and header codes and believe the email is genuine and not a phish. All the auctions that for TouchPRo's that WERE on ebay from this company have disappeared at 9/3/2008 14:00 EDT.
I leave you to draw your own conclusions.

Has anyone actually baught anything from tigerCellular out there? If so let us know are they real or fake? thanks... im betting the latter but you never know
2call.nl 5/10
Got my TP from 2call.nl
Price without contract (as I use company sim) was good and delivery was very fast.
However, as my TP came with the know problems (GPS instable and hot, black paint falls off,...), I asked 2call within two weeks after pruchase to take my device back and replace it by a new one.
They refused.
As price and delivery is not the only thing I expect from a retailer of a some hundred euro device, I personally will not buy at 2call.nl again.
I messed up and didnt order one at release, now im wanting it pretty bad.
Anyone having luck finding it in the US? I have read reports from several people that some 3rd party vendors that are shipping from Korea are shipping out international version ( no samsung pay, right? ) so I'd like to avoid that.
Frys Electronics shows it available for shipping first week of Jan.
Id prefer to go through Best buy or amazon, anyone have some insider info on them? Customer support has zero info.
thank you!

I was able to find it at Best Buy.
I had the same problem. Couldn't find it anywhere, finally I took a chance, and went to craigslist, saw one going for $200 no box, I asked the guy if the charger came with it, he said yes. I took the chance, went for it, and it's just the watch, with the charger, (no cable or power block) but for $200 it's not bad. I factory reset it before I did anything, so far so good, everything works, Samsung pay works.
Best buy
None of the best buys in my area or anaheim, ca or las vegas have them in stock. The best my local best buy was able to do for me is give me a 10% off coupon ad they couldn't even let me place an order to secure the 299 price.
Been keeping an eye on Craigslist too, thank you guys!

I usually check nowinstock.net for email notifications when they come in stock at Best Buy, amazon or B&H.
https://www.nowinstock.net/electronics/smartwatches/samsung/
It actually looks like its in stock at best buy currently with free 2 day shipping: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-gear-s3-frontier-smartwatch-46mm-dark-grey/5647800.p
Aww snap! Thanks for that! I was at bestbuy not less then 2 hours ago and they were showing none. Anywhere. Ordering!
I Also got mine from Bestbuy about a week ago, but they were out of all the Bluetooth only editions. I ended up convincing them to sell me an ATT version for the same price and I'm just using it as Bluetooth only. Seems they are out of stock just about everywhere..
I ended up getting two shipped out. One came in today and the bezel clinks quite a bit. Going to see how it compares to the one arriving tomorrow.
Found one under my Christmas Tree. :good:
I just bought one today from my local Best Buy. No Best Buy locally had them until yesterday. Per the manager I bought mine from, they had a shipment of them come in yesterday. They only got 4. There was only 1 not ordered online that was available for anyone to walk in and buy. They didn't have a demo unit on the floor.
AT&T has a special if you upgrade a line, you can get the S3 for 50 bucks...just did it myself. Doesn't have to be the Flagship, either...any Galaxy phone.
Just walked into my local best buy today and they had one left. It was $350 though. They said they will price match until the 15th of January so hoping it goes on sale! Either that or Verizon announces they are getting a LTE model and I'm returning this one asap
Picked one up, the last one, at my local Best Buy. It was $350 but I was able to use a one time 10% discount. Came out to $337. A few bucks more than with tax on the sale price. Ordered from Samsung 3 weeks now and still no updates. Cancelled that order.
whoever is looking, I use this site to stalk the stock of the main website/stores to find most things and the watch was one of them. It even says at this exact moment amazon has them in stock
https://www.nowinstock.net/electronics/smartwatches/samsung/
None of my Best buys stores in the Bay area has it in stock. Starting hitting craigslist and picked one up for $220, like new in box with all accessories and the receipt from Amazon. Can't express how much more comfortable this is compared to my S2.
They have alot in the Fort Worth Texas areas

Man i have had the same luck with Samsung. I ordered during the christmas sale and its been weeks. Aholes haven't shipped my order yet. Best buy has been out of stock since a long time near me, either. So i kept checking almost daily like a routine and finally found in stock, ordered and cancelled my Samsung order. The frustrating part is Samsung website has been showing The Frontier will ship in 1-3 business days since past coupla days. I called their agents and they all be like- "Oh sorry, it just means it will be delivered in 1-3 business days, once it leaves the warehouse. It is not what you think". WT?? Man I got so pissed calling them again and again with no luck, they all repeating the same sht. I have a strong feeling they are not shipping in the order received. I think brand new orders at full price are still being shipped sooner than those back orders sold at sale price.
Hi
I am looking to purchase the new Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra China Version and have it shipped to Canada.
Could someone suggest a reputable company to buy from?
Looking for the 16GB RAM 512GB version.
Thanks!

The site doesnt seem like much, but I bought my Oppo Reno 10x from them last year. Shipping was very fast, took only a few days to get to Ireland.
I've read good things about tradingshenzhen. I haven't used it yet but will probably buy from there.
i've bought 6 phones from Liaow excellent experience each time 4-5 days shipping to the states. i was gonna buy the mi 10 ultra, but found a find x2 pro for a excellent price. I may still grab one though!!
Try Wanda Mobile, ive used them in the past and all good to UK

I have ordered this phone to the UK thanks to this post. I have bought from China before and expect no hassle especially being in the UK (and hope any USA buyers have no problems!) but thanks for this post as it helped me made my mind up. Plus they take Paypal, and I have paid via credit, so if anything goes wrong they can get invovled
Edit: so today I had an nice email from Liaow. Just checking I know if the phone will work in my country, warning me about customs tax if they open it, just everything really. Made me very confident, they have some shipping delays due to Corona but we're still looking at one week in total. I was very reassured, the guy had perfect English and checked on things most suppliers just would not bother with.

Liaow also shipped my phone last year with DHL. I orderd and on the 8th of July I got an email from them with the waybill info and also a photo of the package itself. 3 days later on the 11th of July I got an email from DHL for customs duty to be paid, it was 47 euro. So 3 working day shipping from Hong Kong, that's what I call fast shipping.
That Mike from Liaow is the nicest guy ever. Not only did he contact me before confirming my order to make sure - a nice thing to do for international sales but not something I've ever seen before! - but he's kept me updated every step of the way with photos of the packaging, the address label for me to check and even weighing the package for DHL!
Liaow.com really went above and beyond. They even put the price of the phone as much lower than it really is for customs.
I got mine 16GB RAM from ALI BABA , seller name is "Fujian Century Sea Power Co., Ltd. Manufacturer, Trading Company"
For me, the recommendation goes to Wondamobile - 4 days shipping time from china to central europe, quick and helpful customer support and they promise to pay import fees themselves, should any arise.
I've got mine from mi4canada.()com and I have only good things to say about them (the shipping was with dhl express and it took 4 days to deliver). It's the second phone I've purchased from them.
I got mine 16GB 512GB edition from liaow.com, Mike- the site owner is the most responsive and helpfull man. I will buy one more silver tomorrow.
