Best place to purchase in US?

I'm looking to get a 3G P6800 and was wondering where others in the US purchased from?
Looks like NegriElctronics has them for $512 but I've never dealt with them before.
Thanks!

I, like a few members here, got it from them. Very reputable and fast shipping (at least in my case). They will be my go to retailer for future unlocked devices.

I have purchased products from On The Go Solutions for a number of years and they have been helpful. Not sure they are the cheapest but you get what you pay for and they work hard to deliver. they produced a second P6800 for me and the second had a 32 gb internal memory.

Got mine off of a 3rd party reseller on amazon and didn't get as good of a deal as that. Wish I had known about them. Oh well, still loving the 6800.

Im from germany ..... and got my p6800 from negri within 2 day express shipping!!!!
negri accept also amazon payment so for me it is also a save shop.
the service is fast ... you can instant communicate over the web!!!!
i hope this helps you

Scam site. easyelectronicstore

Update. Site is a scam and asks for wire transfer.
Just ordered the tf700 from there for my daughter. Price is insane low for the 64gb, just not sure how trust worthy they are.
Used my wifes cc and there worry part is this.... it did not ask for phone number. All the other info was regular info, address, email and bla bla bla
Not 5 minutes later she gets pop up on her phone for a chat invite from easy electronic store. i saw it on the screen as she read it and said WTF, not seconds later she lost the pop up. I dont know what it was or where it came from. I cant find anything on her phone to see where it came from
I guess well see if the tf700 comes. If it does ill be ordering another for my other daughter so im crossing my fingers

I was looking at the site easyelectronicstore.com
I dunno there my friend...if it were me I'd cancel that credit card charge immediately.
What's the old saying:
"If it looks too good to be true"

Yeah I only just realised that my bad - i just joined this xda thing and noticed you've been a member since 2009 - mistook it for you purchasing and posting this in 2009.
Thanks though that will be pretty helpful.

Considering that the two color options are "black" and "white" (two non existant colors on the tf700), I'd say it's probably not real..

LOL ok then. Makes sense. But yeah i will post once i get it and check it out and make sure its whats advertised. I hope it comes, and it would be helpful if anyone ordered from there and got what they ordered, whatever the order was for.

Yeah I know what you're saying I've been trying to look for the same thing, they're apparently selling iPhone 5's for £300 - BARGAIN OF THE YEAR! If it's legit that is... Cheers mate hopefully this'll help!! Good luck!!! I look forward to the *hopefully* all clear (Y)
EDIT: Should point out - a good observation on the Black/White colour availability on ALL products across the website but I done some searching they've been up as a website for about 28 days - no reviews - so looks like we're the guinea pigs of this site so we'll find out soon enough.. I checked it through this: scamadviser.com/ - go to 'check webiste' and type in www[dot]easyelectronicstore[dot]com
SECOND EDIT: I know I keep editing but I'm realising more bits and pieces that may help put two and two together. From a programmers point of view; adapting on the above colour availability 'black and white' across the site.. the actual 'Availability' read's 'In stock' as a drop down box. This should not be the case as the customer cannot choose whether something is in stock or not but we should only be able to view this information. So either poorly designed web pages or scam. - I've been talking to a 'representative' and they're saying all the right things but I guess overall we'll just have to wait and see..

BTW, i found this thru the google shopper app on my phone. Otherwise i can not find any other info on this retailer

The site says locations in Virginia and the UK...
Still say it looks shady...

I just looked the site up a few minutes ago & I was concerned about the contact number, it's a cell/mobile phone number not a direct land-line,which would raise my suspicions, I sincerely do hope ALL goes well & your product reaches you though I am concerned....
P.s.why don't you give them a call on the phone number the site gives you?(I didn't include it in my post incase I done something wrong)

Do not order from this website
Easyelectronicstore.com is REMARKABLY a lot like superstoregadgets.com both websites have both US and UK addresses (although superstoregadgets.com didn't have a US address a month ago) I was really excited about the price at first too since it was so cheap but when I went through their checkout process just to see how much they would charge for shipping I received an email saying this:
"We thank you for your order# (New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity TF700 64GB 10.1" Android Tablet), and we want to inform you that your order has been received and confirmed, packed and will soon be ready for shipment, but we are unable to process your credit card because of the issues we are presently facing with our credit card processor, due to large volume of order we are receiving at this promo period, and no COD anymore, to complete this order, we need to receive your payment before we can ship out your order, all payments are to be made via Online Money Transfer (Western Union or Money Gram)."
Funny thing was...I never even entered any payment information yet. So I did some searching and the UK address for superstoregadgets had been used by several other online stores in the past and people had ordered stuff from them and never received their products.
Easyelectronicstore.com doesn't even have any certifications. Just a picture of a "safe and secure" badge on the page that doesn't even link to any agency that would support any confirmation that the site is legit. Just like with superstoregadgets.com when you search for the address on google you get no other indication that the website has an online presence or notoriety.
I SERIOUSLY BELIEVE THAT EASYELECTRONICSTORE.COM IS A SCAM. IF YOU HAVE ORDERED FROM THEM I WOULD SUGGEST IMMEDIATELY TRYING TO GET YOUR MONEY BACK AND I WOULD SUGGEST INVESTIGATING INTO POSSIBLY PUTTING A FRAUD ALERT ON THAT CARD.
It's better to be safe than sorry.

Yeah I think it is a scam. Luckily used cc instead of debit so I should be good to go. Gonna wait till tuesday and if I dont have anything from them im gonna try and call and then ill call my cc co.
My wife got the chat invite again today when she was out and it disapeared before she could get a screen shot for me.

Yup just got the email asking for wire transfer. She is calling then cc co in a bit

Well bud thanks for flagging this dodgy company for the rest of us ,suppose it was to good to be true....

[Q] Chinapadmall

hi guys
i am planning to buy a new phone soon, probably a China one. i have already checked many china shops but most of them do not look like a safe place for spending a couple hundred euros, and paying with paypal is in many of them impossible.
so would you be so kind and share your expirence with chinapadmall, because i was unable to find any useful information on the internet. at a glance they look different from most of china shops and paying with paypal is also possible.
just another question: probably i am going to buy either a iocean/OU Sheng X7 or a UMI X2. which one do you think is better in term of build quality?
thank you for help

I personally would keep away from Chinese phones, generally because they tend to not have any support afterwards. I looked through this site and however designed/presented nicely, the reviews are mostly of customers asking questions about the product. They seem to respond back though so that may be a good sign (even though they're using the reviews section as a forum, which is deceiving). Sorry for not exactly answering your question, but that's just my 2cents.

Do you mean "China" or "china"?
Either way, I wouldn't want to touch any China-made products left alone spending "a couple hundred euros" for it.

first of all thanks for your reply.
i meant China of course.
you are probably right about support ,sadly not so many own those phones. actually i am buying that kind of phone, because in last half year i lost two phones (they were both stolen by somebody). now i do not want to spend much money on a new phone.
including taxes and DHL shippinig i can get a full hd phone for approximately 220€ (about 290$), and that is why i am interested in buying China phone.
i will have to think a bit and search the internet, whether it is worth buying cheap phone and hooping for best, or spend at least twice as much money for Nexus 4, Sony Xperia Z, or other flagship devices.

I've bought my goophone n2 here in chinapadmalL and pay with paypal.It's safe.
And I'm also interested in iocean X7 and a UMI X2,but the pre-order does not begin,do you know the exact date? cause I don 't want to wait a long time .

I use dx.com for my China gadget shopping. They are trustworthy and have a decent support staff as well as forums. They accept paypal. The only downside is sometimes the shipping can be slow but anything shipping from Hong Kong is generally slow. They have name brand Android phones as well.

i am also interested in buying umi x2, iocean x7, or t he jiayu g4 advenced, but the problem is also the availability, and the release dates are not actually unknown.
and about the dx.com i must agree they are trustworthy, buty normally it takes long to receive your staff, but the problem is they do not have so many phones like other sites.

I would not buy AT CHINAPADMALL
Well I tell you my experience with this damn devil store "chinapadmall.com" because bine on April 9, 2013, announced in stock the following: "Good Quality Butterfly x920e OEM Smart Phone 5.0 Inch IPS 1920 * Quad 1080 2GB RAM Android 4.1-core 1.5GHz 16GB ". I buy paypal payment 250'87 total EUR total no joke. I get the phone about ten or twelve days later does not do what is advertised is 1920 * 1080 1270 * 920 is less, plus wifi does not work and tells me what I have to do is install the rom again, as I to have to do that to a newly purchased mobile trying it yourself. Well I tell you what I say I want to return smoothly to send it to an address and how do I have to send also want a 32 gb sd Tarje tells me to pay it and send it to me. I tell you all that I leave as requested on the page and tell me you do not need it with the email is enough. I send the phone on May 10, 2013, will arrive on May 24 and did not pick right now is in the post office waiting sheizen by will. I tell the seller and he says he does not know that you sent me x2 umi on Friday May 31 but do not know the tracking number and does not know because he has not Picked to send you the package. We also speak for the char of the page and I closed this sounds fishy.
SUMMARY, DONÍ BUY INTO THAT AS A PROBLEM WITH ANY Tourist trap breaded MOBILE I ALREADY TOOK TWO MONTHS MOBILE AND LEAST 280 EUROS.
P. D. if anyone knows something I can help I'd appreciate it because paypal said to have passed the 45 days to open a dispute. Of course I have happened if I had been the purchaser bullfighting, and the effectiveness of posts that you see, well here you have this tako, well I'm sorry but I inform relief and these thieves, swindlers. Thank you.: Mad :: mad:
This is the ultimate, the CHINAPADMALL.COM geta looks to have seen that I have told you what happened in all the forums that I could and yesterday (June 5) according to their page to put a discount promotion 5-8 $ a people who speak well of chinapadmall and send the address of the forum comment to your mail to see him, this must be seen to be believed, is very strong, does that and does not answer to the 10 MESSAGES I sent in the last 3 days. see to believe. how can a person for a lost mobile lose many customers as if they read this.
You can see it chinapadmall.com/blog/summer-sale/

I bought an Umi x2 from them 5 days ago. My order is still 'in progress' and not been posted despite me paying $20 for express delivery. I'mnot happy with their service.

UMI X2 32G rom 2G ram the umi company will stop produce for 3-4 weeks.so if you bought this phone don't dream they will ship.

I think i can tell you something, I think there must something made you misunderstanding, i made two orders in chinapadmall.com, they response very fast and reply my every email and live chat, maybe the email sent to your junk box? it seem the live chat time from China time 9:00~18:00, you can try to see and try again. and even over 45 days, they accept return and refund, don't worry. one of my friend experienced it. it is better you tell him your order number first, so they can confirm soon. when refund the money, you must will get a coupon as a compensation( my friend got the coupon, hope the same as you).
and by the way, if they didn't answer you, how did you sent back the phone? where you got the return address?
hope your problem will be fix soon....

address gave me Jerry or so chatting calls himself. So far I have sent the phone or returned the money. On Friday Jerry said the chat today I would give the tracking number, but I ask you and I closed the conversation. No I think I have been scammed, and the address to which returned the phone was not the same that came in the package where they sent me the phone. ie they send from an address and returns go to another company and another direction, even in another city. All this is very rare and worst is that after almost 3 months I am still without my money and no mobile. SO I would not buy ANYTHING IN CHINAPADMALL. COM

I think I know where is the problem

I think I know where is the problem, the problem is not CHINAPADMALL.COM didn't answer your questions, it seem you returned the phone to the wrong address ( wrote in the package?).
if you purchased the phone via paypal in the store, it is better you follow the refund and return rules of paypal. you should dispute in paypal and ask for return and refund, paypal will show you the address that you should send to. remember never do not send to the address wrote in package. if over 45days, it is better you contact their after service for address before you sending. as I know, many package sent from China the address wrote on package are address of POST AGENT COMPANY, not the real seller, because the agent handle all for seller, seller only need prepare the package for picking up.
i suggest you keep contact CHINAPADMALL.COM , tell him the tracking info, ask him for help for find the package. if sent to the POST AGENT, they also can have it back, but will take many times, it is possible to get your money back, CHINAPADMALL.COM wont let you lost money, as I know my friend got money back and got a coupon for compensation and he made a new order with the coupon( 8USD discount for any item).
hope can help you, and be patient you will get money back soon....

good to let you know that chinapadmall scam remains the same, I have sent the phone told me, will not return my money, do not send me the phone defective or sent me to the beginning or answer emails or chat, we that happen to me, they want to keep the money and not send anything.

THIEVES, SCAMMERS, ...

:good: that's great, I told you before, they will refund your money anytime, even over 45 days after payment. chinapadmall.com are looking for long term business, not one time. reliable!!

I have no problem with china mobile. Nice power for third price of regular brands with good workshop quality. Only problem is support...

.My phone I received from om them was faulty and they have asked me to return it to them. I have done by DHL but it seems to be being held in customs in Shenzhen. Is it legal to return a phone from UK to Shenzhen? Why would customs hold it?
Perhaps it just takes some time for clearance?

I will never buy something from Google Play !

So a month ago I ordered a nexus 4 8gb. The next day my friend decided he wanted to sell he's nexus 4 8gb. He said he will sell it to me for 300$ instead of 372$ from the play store. Of course I bought it. I wanted to cancel my order so went on my Google wallet account to cancel it. Surprise it doesn't work. Take note that the phone hasn't shipped yet. I call them and I explain to them that I will like to cancel my order. The lady tells me that my order has been processed and she can't cancel. She than tells me I have to wait until it comes and wen
UPS arrives at my door to return it to the sender. I asked if this was a joke. I never in my life heard of that. If an item hasn't shipped yet isn't it easier to stop it before it leaves ? I didn't make a big story and did what she said. I was charged the 372$. Tracked with UPS and when it was near my house, called UPS and said that I refuse the order and that they may send it back to the sender. Perfect they sent it back. And it arrived back to them the Friday, *02/15/2013 at*9:30. I emailed them to know when they will refund me.
They said : If your package is unopened, Google will issue a refund to the card originally charged within 2 weeks.
I'm OK with that no problem.
2 weeks pass. I call them starting to get annoyed.
Now they changed the 2 weeks to 14 businesses days :banghead:
But in the first email they sent they clearly said 2 weeks if package was unopened.
"Thank you for contacting Google Play Hardware Support.
I understand your concern and frustration with the refund for the returned Nexus 4 device.
If your package is unopened, Google will issue a refund to the card originally charged for the order within 2 weeks.
If your package was opened, your returned device must first be inspected before determining the validity of the refund request. Results of the inspection will generally be available within 14 business days after your device is returned."
I remind you that my nexus 4 didn't even make it to my door. Emailed them and got the same message pasted again. Called them and wanted to talk to a supervisor. They said that 14 working days is their policies blabla and that they can't do anything for me.
I was really annoyed and decided to wait the 14 work days. Which was last Friday. I was supposed to get my refund, or at least it should appear on my Google wallet account, but again nothing.
Emailed them back and this is what they sent me back :
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Google. I've forwarded your case to a specialist to check on the status of your return. I do apologize for all of the hassle and I would definitely be frustrated were I in this situation, but rest assured I am going to do all I can to resolve the situation quickly for you.
In the meantime, if you come across any other information that you'd like to pass along, please feel free to reply to this email. Your responses will automatically go to the specialist working on your case.
Thanks again for your patience and understanding.
My regards,

10 minutes later I got a new email :
Hello,
If your package is unopened, Google will issue a refund to the card originally charged for the order within 3-5*Business.
If your package was opened, your returned device must first be inspected before determining the validity of the refund request. Results of the inspection will generally be available within 14 business days after your device is returned.
If your refund has already been processed by Google, it may take a few business days for your account to reflect this. Please contact your bank directly if you would like additional details on receiving the funds from a processed refund.
You can always check to see if a refund has been processed by visiting https://wallet.google.com/
My regards,
Erin*

I think I am about to explode. Google customer is the worst customer service I ever had.
Now my question is: what to do next ?
Never buying a device from the Google store, NEVER.

14 business days is 3 working weeks.
2 weeks is 2 working weeks.
Anyways they keep changing how much it should take.

I just love how they do such things. But even worse, they say that generally in 14 business days results of the device inspection will be avaliable. Makes you think about what is there really to inspect lol

I have the emails from tech support.
First one says 3-5 business days if unopened and 2 weeks if opened. Than the second one says 14 business day. Its been 26 working/business days and not a sign of refund. That's pretty bad from a company as big as Google.

Hmmmm
Called them and they said they are having issues with their returns because they are using a new automated return service. I personally think it's a joke.
If any one has the same problems please let me know.

I understand your frustration, but you couldn't possibly have anything to truly be worried about here economically/legally right?
Here in Norway at least, if the situation isn't resolved for the customer, the Consumer Advisory (translated as best I can) would tear the company apart with friggin chainsaws.
Written statements by employees, not having even accepted the package, and so on, pretty clear case IMO.
Best wishes

I'm seriously thinking to take legal actions. Their policies clearly states 14 business days for opened packages and 3-5 days for unopened ones. It's been 26 days !!!!!

seems you would better got the phone and resell it by your own

I worked for a well known action camera company in the customer service dept before moving on to better things and this all sounds very familiar. That was our standard procedure for returns as well, so it is possible that it is something to do do with either UPS or the system they're using - I remember it was actually for service reps to cancel if the order had been processed, even if we escalated it. The 14 business days sounds about right too, although the support rep should cop a little flak there for not saying that instead of 2 weeks and not mentioning the possibility of delays.
I also remember moving to a new returns service (automated too funnily enough), which caused ridiculous delays - packages getting lost, getting sent to the wrong department, you name it.
Bear in mind that the rep is just as frustrated as you at this point - in scenarios like this we would constantly check up on the status and ask the manager to escalate it to shipping/accounts but our hands are tied.
Mention the possibility of legal action if you want, but you'll likely get pointed towards the T&Cs absolving the company of any fault.
I'm pretty confident I could name and shame the companies providing these services but sadly that'd breach the NDA I signed.
Good luck man.

I have been shouting that google is cheating u people and mods kept on deleting my thread. They had supply issue to they booked the order and now after 3 months when much better devices are in the market they are forcing users to buy them.
They even charged much for the old socs. When arms new designs were 1 month ahead.
So

[Q] goophoneshop.com; safe seller?

Hello; i'm serriously considering selling my current motorola razr hd, and buying a new phone from goophoneshop.com. I can't find any info on this website, and due to chinese websites having a somewhat flakey reputation, i'm a little concerned. Has anyone bought a phone from this website.
Edit:
I've found another website with the phone i'm after.
http://www.dhgate.com
Does anyone have any experience with this website? I'm particulary concerned with this one, because paypal is not an option.

As I told to another user I suggest to buy from etotalk. It's really fast and serious and you can pay with PayPal. I bought a vivo Xplay and everything went good.

Unfortunatly etotalk does not have the phone i'm after. After observation, i've noticed the phone i was considering on dhgate, is not infact the phone i'm after; but instead a fake, and it doesn't have the one i want either.
I've decided i will buy from goophoneshop.com because they have paypal, and i will report back if they're any good.

The devices there are also clones.

I once wanted to use dhgate to buy some ton of case and sell them locally had a bit of research seemed pretty legit if you ask me and some other reviews approved aswell...
Its kinda the chinese version of ebay..
