I would agree that in general eBay can be expensive, but my Gemini from eBay was £380 which I think is reasonable. It is an option for those that can't wait.

That's not terrible. I would still prefer the wait, but for that price it's OK I guess

Wow! One of those is up to £720!!!

Hopefully i should have mine this month 2306 in que touchwood it drops in soon.

And hopefully with the correct CPU and improved keyboard quality.

I purchased multiple Geminis and have a brand new one for sale if anyone is interested.

Ecell Ebay Craziness

E-cell was selling the sensation last night for 419 pounds, the purchases rained down on them myself included...
This morning they have revised their price to 449, but still very cheap, its definitely still the cheapest around...
Just check Ebay and search for HTC Sensation, E-cell will be shown usually near the top

Well they are a reputable company with quite a massive feedback, and in the UK we are covered by distance selling regulations which gives us 14 days cooling off period and we can return within that time for a full refund or exchange.
I think 419 is definitely no money at all for the HTC Sensation
Are they an authorized Samsung retailer? If not, be careful with the warranty.

Its a HTC Phone mate, and all new phones are covered by law which states a 12 month warranty.
If they are a HTC Partner you will get 2 years...
Do you know when you'll get yours? I really wanna know if it's unbranded XD
they say 7-10 days but the sim-free version isn't supposed to be out till the end of june.

To be honest mate, for that price im not too worried 419 for the sensation is a steal I think
Even 449 is still a great price...
What i have seen of E-Cell is they get their stock the same time as others, so its just a matter of waiting.
Sounds like an advertisement thread to me. New guy + Ebay seller mentioned and praised.
If I find links to ebay in this thread, I'll lock it.
@ OP
Previous poster is right, new member + Ebay support thread
Just a heads up guys

As it happens im not a new member, I was under the name of Jupiterdroid but erased my account as i have a massive year at university this year and would not be using my account as much.. You can even confirm that with Mick Channon.. So before you start throwing accusations around find out facts! I had well over 2000 posts with the JD account, i wanted it closed as i knew it would be inactive for long periods of time. So Mod get running to Mick and he will tell you the story..
I bought the Sensation for 419, dont you think that is worth writing about when the actual price is 500? Just trying to help the community when i can

Good buy mate
There isnt anywhere else cheaper thats a fact Even though they have now moved it to 450 its still the cheapest. I think they really undercooked it at 419, they had like 15 sales in 5 hours lol.
I know. I was shocked. Lol. I was actually In two minds about buying it now or a month or two down the line. Glad i got it now.
I got mine around midnight.
419....I paid that much for my dhd over a month after it was released.
I'll let you know how it goes once I get it. Now just hope these bootloaders will be unlocked. Then I can design my own theme and flash away

I would really advise you to be very careful when dealing with ecell.
Just google ecell ebay.
They have a very sketchy record with high value items like phones.
I bought a nexus one over a year ago. Had to file a paypal dispute after I found out that they lied about shipping the phone.

That does sound dodgy, but with over 600,000 phones sold and a good feedback in the high 90's im sure your one was a minor glitch in comparision.
In the UK we have distance selling regulations on our side, so if you dont like it, return it within 14 days and get a refund

Actually it is not 600 000 sold phones. It is 600 000 sold items with a vast majority being low-value items - this is how they boost their feedback.
The research I've done after I ordered my n1 from them indicates that this it was not a minor glitch and their tactics is based on waiting for the 40-day PayPal dispute window to expire. They come up with excuses as to why they haven't shipped yet or outright lie to you (as was in my case) claiming that the phone has been shipped.
Maybe they've changed their ways, I don't know. Just thought a heads up was in order.

your actually right, looking through the negative feedbacks im alarmed at the significant number of feedbacks regarding phones arriving a month late. im not sure now whether im going to go ahead with them. they did seem abit dodgy, only thing that was persuading me to buy was the 60,000 feedback

50% off Samsung Accessory

I jumped onto samsung.com today and registered my new S4. When I got done I got an e-mail for a coupon code for 50% off any accessory $50 or less. Figured I might as well get a spare battery/charger combo for $25 after savings. I searched the forums and didn't find anything about this already being posted.

Will be registering my device as soon as I get it and probably ordering the same item you did...Was it free shipping?
It showed orders over $50 was free shipping. Under $50 is was like $3-4 USPS shipping. I was going to order the extra battery with charging case but sold out, on a notification list now.
Didn't offer me a discount
I received the 50% off discount in an email and the code is a one time use for products 49.99 and less. Can be used for up to 5 products on one order. I used it on a case and a micro usb to usb cable.
Anyone got a code I could use since it's good for up to 5 uses? Thanks in advance.

It might not be worth the bother. 50% seems like a good deal on the surface, but I've been pricing the items available at the Samsung website for the S4 and it seems that most if not all of the items can be bought through Amazon at the same or better price than 50% off at Samsung. Plus, I am a Amazon Prime member, so for me I can get free 2-day shipping on a lot of it for free. Take into account that some of the popular items at Samsung are back ordered and Amazon seems to be a better deal overall (for the items I looked at).
I called and got everything 50 off. 2 Smart docks and 2 Allshare hubs. Both priced over $50. I don't think Tele sales has realized the coupon is different this time around.

[Q] Where to Buy the Nexus 5? (USA)

Hello XDA,
I missed the small window of opportunity to purchase the nexus 5 from the play store (16 gb), and now it is almost a month out of stock. I am looking to buy the Nexus 5, but can't find a well-priced retailer. BestBuy andRadioshack (along with my carrier) tack on an extra $100 , which I really don't want to pay. Has anyone successfully purchased the nexus 5 from somewhere other than the Play store for less than $450? If so, is it still available from that location?
Thanks,
ccrama
(I am in the United States)

Ebay is very risky. they do not verify serial numebrs or ESN for blacklisted.
an no..its actually priced below recently sold average. There are several others selling theirs for more and none of them are 7.0.
I see guess I got lucky. hope some one enjoys there new phone... Right

Myslef and other i know have been burned by an ebay sale 1 too many times......no thanks. Swappa far more reliable and safer. Far better support in case something does go wrong as well. (like if the phone is not activatable or becomes not activatable long after the sale...seller has to refund cost...etc..)
And when u looks at the average prices the v10 has sold for....

How to buy/import htc u11+ in U.S.A?

Hello everyone,
There's a lot of us in the U.S. that want to purchase the u11+, but there's no official way to do so.. does anyone know of a website where we could purchase and import one?
UPDATE: 11/24/2017
: thanks to @Sammae7 AND @jauhien for the mobile Wanda and Amazon link! Couldn't find this when i originally searched on Amazon..

The price on Wanda Mobile says 619 GBP inclusive of tax (VAT). But if we are getting it shipped outside of UK, should the tax (20%) be deducted from the sale price? Thanks
You can buy it in china,hongkong or taiwan. the chinese model is 4999RMB(about 750USD),the hongkong model is 5688HKD.I bought chinese version week ago.
UK version is available now with 10% rebate!
Just import that one.
Just buy it from Anazon:
