I know it is against the rules to advertise or sell on the forums however from my understanding I can get feed back from you guys. So with that said I was curious on what you think a fair going price on this tablet would be. I like the tablet and all but I have a note 2 and am thinking about selling this guy. I was thinking posting it for 400 in my near by Craiglist classifieds what do you think? Thanks in advance. Sorry if this isn't allowed either.

400 what? US$ I'm guessing. Sounds a bit cheap to me. Unless there is no dock?

I don't think he included the dock, but Craiglist? do you know what's the meaning of Craiglist....60%-70% off. People who shop Craiglist, they all looking for dirt cheap price. Ebay, maybe you can get a good price!! Not too long ago, I purchased a dinner set worth 3000$ for $300, now that's Craiglist!! Happy New Year everyone!!!
No dock or anything just the tablet with box and everything. I really dont like dealing ebay just because they take out money (a certain percentage I think) plus you have to ship the thing which is a pain in the butt.
I think $300 would be a fair price.
They are listing for 475 brand new on Amazon, no way I would take a chance on a used product from someone I didn't personally know to save that little. $250 is about where I feel it should be.
here in america they are $500 new, so i would list it at $400 and take $350. thats about as good as you are going to get.

Go to eBay and search for TF700. When the results come up, next to the search button you should see "Advanced Search" link. Click that. Now just below the search words you should see a "Completed Listings" checkbox. Check it and hit the search button again. You will see what they are going for and in what shape they are in when they sell.
I sold my Ipod on ebay just about 2 weeks ago started $85 sold for 158. Sold my Nexus 7 for $30 less then I bought it new. If the product is in mint condition people will pay more. Try selling it high lol what do you have to lose. But I am not like most for I dont sell to make money. Life is to short and I look at it like.. what if that was me what would I want or even be treated.. so I do that and sell it cheap.
So if you want your money back try it high at the least it wont sell, but with words like "MINT" people LOVE! Even if they dont know you.. lol I know. You got people that live there and will buy it just to sell it higher..
I've seen varying numbers here, so I'm just wondering how much the OnePlus One actually costs in the UK.

From oneplus its £229 for the 16GB version and £269 for the 64GB model. There's a few pound for postage also, can't remember how much.
You can buy without an invite from online companies like oppomart, coolicool, aliexpress, etc. They're usually a bit cheaper but obviously take longer to get here.
I'm stuck between this phone and the Ascend Mate 7 gahh lol

Looks a nice phone too, usual pros and cons for both. Although for customisation and price I think the opo is hard to beat at the moment. I've got a nexus 5 but keep considering a opo, particularly for the battery and better camera. But will probably hold out to next year to see what opo release next. It would be nice to just buy directly from them with no messing about, but maybe that will change.
Below are another couple of great value devices also worth a look.

Your prices are spot-on, the delivery charges are £5.99 for standard and £9.99 for express. Note that it takes OPO 3 working days to process your order...
Also note that buying from APAC usually involves the buyer being liable for import taxes and VAT... which makes the phone F. expensive. And takes ages....
I created this thread because for some reason I can't post in the thread about xiaomi buyers, I can't even comment and I don't know why.
Anyways, I wanted to ask if anyone has had any experience with giztop.com and if so, a few questions.
1) did you have to pay customs?
2)was the phone in perfect conditions?
3)how long did the shipping take and how long did it take to get a tracking number?
Everyone is invited to post their experiences with different websites buying the xiaomi mi4c and also by answering those 3 questions if you can.
I ordered a Mi4C from geekbuying.com. It's a "big" and reliable website/store with many customers. Also their customer service support is fast and helpful, for example they included a gift in my order. I still haven't received my item because I chose the "slow" flat-rate shipping which can take ~15 days, but I'm not in a hurry.
I received a correct tracking number almost immediately after I placed my order. I'll report back with more answers to your questions

It cost me USD 277.35. And I just noticed that it arrived in my country at 31 October, so it only took like 2 days to get here. Now the slow swedish post just have to hurry up!
I used Geekbuying too, to ship to the UK, shipping was free even though it was apparently 'expedited'. TNT was on the list as a 0 cost option and a 3-5 day shipping time. Mine was ordered on the 24th, shipped on the 26th, and in my hand on the 29th. Really hassle free. Phone was in perfect condition, and bloat seemed minimal if anything at all. Bloat is a bit of a moot point though as sMIUI went onto it straight away.
Do you guys think it'd be just as smooth to the U.S? Did you guys use EU warehouse? @Flaxe @Salieri_UK

I have no idea how it will be to the US, but I guess it will go pretty smooth. Mine was shipped from Singapore, they didn't have it in a EU warehouse when I ordered.
There is a thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4c/general/to-buy-outside-china-t3208959
I bought from ibuygou and asked them to check if there were any faults with the device, they said they will check. I got the device and it came with EU rom so no bloatware and they gave 2 free screen protectors. Got dhl tracking same day. They offer duty insurance, so if you get charged, they will refund you. Also very repsponsive with emails. I'd use them again

@ermacwins. Did you pay any customs duty or tax? And the screen protectors, were they packaged separately?

I haven't heard anything about it yet. Though, when reading at the swedish import "laws", there's 0% duty for importing phones, but we still have to pay 25% tax.
When I track the item on the swedish post website, it now says the item is being sorted at the terminal and I should have it delivered to me tomorrow. So then I will know for sure if I have to pay anything extra.

No because I paid for the duty insurance which is 5% of total. They still marked the item $20 but I didn't want to risk it. Yes packaged separately but I'm not sure if they give it to every customer.

Are the screen protectors original products or Xiaomi? Also, would you consider 7.8 mm thick or thin for a phone? That's the thickness of the Xiaomi mi4c @ermacwins

Well it doesn't have a xiaomi logo on it but does have the mi logo
Yeah, its supposed to have the mi logo

I broke my network/signal antenna coax cable while doing screen replacement.I was able to get some signal after grounding and soldering a small wire,but apparently the network(data connection too) is not as good as when it was with the coax cable(of course).
I tried searching the accessories forums and all relevant threads,but couldn't found any link that isn't dead.
After googling,I could find some sellers on eBay.com and banggood.com,but sadly they don't ship to my place(that's rude of 'em).
Now,I really am in need of that coax cable to really use my OPO as daily driver,while travelling or using data connection(switches every time to 2G)..it doesn't really come handy anymore.It is not anything firmware related,that's I'm sure of,because before that coax cable incident,everything was working fine.
That's my sad story.. :crying:
If anyone know of any site or seller that sells that coax cable(except banggood and eBay.com, you know the reason),please do let me know so that I can use my OPO as daily driver again,otherwise I'll have to buy another device(which I really don't want).
how about aliexpress

Hello..
Thanks for the recommendation,but do you think it will be possible to get just one piece? I really don't need another antenna,just a single piece would do.
P.s: Just did a quick search in aliexpress and found that the link you shared is the only product available,so I'm just gonna order that,as it is much cheaper than the ones available on eBay.com and eBay.in(would've been quite feasible,but prices are just too high).
Actually it is first time I'm ordering from Aliexpress,and it is good to see that there are some buyer protections,but the max time of arrival is estimated as 60 days..they'll initiate refund if product is not delivered in 60 days.I don't think it would take that much for the product to arrive from China to North India.The max I can think of is 3 weeks.Have you ordered any item from aliexpress? If yes,can you tell me how much time it took for your product to arrive?
Thank you,again.
Ps2: I don't know why it is mentioned as WiFi antenna even though WiFi has nothin' to do with that antenna.That antenna is related to network only.
Ps3:Bought it at about 270INR.
Ps4: Sh*t happened! There is another product in 0.89USD!! Should've bought that!!
Is it somehow possible to revert my payment and cancel the order??! Please reply Asap..!
Ps5: I was able to cancel the order,the status now says 'order cancelled,refund processing'.
Do you know how much time it could take for a refund?
Also, @evronetwork ,you use aliexpress a lot..maybe you can help me with this?

You can't really predict the arrival time of the order. Its very variable and depends on the shipping method. I have ordered a lot from aliexpress and some orders arrived within 25 days while some other took 45+ days and there were 2 which never arrived. But there's nothing to worry because if you don't receive the order you will get an assured refund.
Your refund should get processed within 10 days. You can trust aliexpress though, they are professional enough.

Stopped recently using aliexpress and warning others to do so. I've used aliexpress for years well... if a seller is bad(cross roads with about 4 of them - really really bad not just negative) ...you can lose money, aliexpress protects sellers rather than buyers
So unless you don't mind losing some money avoid them

But what about refund tho? Refund of cancelled order? It's still processing even though I cancelled the order just after payment.
Btw,another order which I did,shipped today.I used Aliexpress 'cause the prices were cheap,otherwise I always use eBay.
I won't do any other order on Aliexpress,but I can't really take the risk to cancel the shipped order. :/

well if you have TOO many evidence ...you'll get your money, you might lose 20-30 days but you'll get it
Now if you want to cancel or send the item back for some reason ..and the seller is bad? you'll lose your money
You see you can open a dispute to cancel or send the item back BUT if the seller doesn't accept this, aliexpress doesn't do anything ...they say talk to the seller and when the time is out and the dispute has to close? it ends with sellers win - So he gets the money, amazing? ...sure it is
Cancelling an order and getting the money back it's up to sellers choice, if he's good it's ok ..if he's not well expect to be @!#@!#%

Okay,so I got the pm from seller.She says 'Since you cancelled the order just after placing it,we never got the money.Your money is safe with Aliexpress.They'll refund the money to you after processing it i.e., within 10 days.If you don't recieve your money even after 10 days,kindly contact Aliexpress customer service.'
Does this actually mean I'll get my refund? Tbh,I don't know what's making the refund late..I mean I cancelled the order just after placing it,so the refund shouldn't take that long,right?
I seriously should've used eBay and paid a few more bucks.Their service is much better imho.

Yeah if you cancelled before they press send you are safe - They usually press "send" even if they send it a few days later, sometimes 10+ business days later - You're in luck
Ebay is safe but usually more expensive and this paypal convertion is "stealing" for sure but better safe than sorry I guess - Usually ebay sellers don't ask for any proof if things go south, in aliexpress? expect both seller and aliexpress to ask for as much proof as you can get and you might be lucky
Just wish ebay had the variety that aliexpress has, aliexpress has much more products and little parts than ebay like 10 times more
When repairing, tablet, phones, photocopiers, laptop, printers etc ...you need little parts most of the time and having hard time to find one single place like aliexpress did - but enough is enough, can't waste money or time to prove I'm not an elephant.

Hello again.It's been 8 days and I still haven't got my refund.The seller said that I'll get refund in max 5 days.How can I contact Aliexpress about this issue?
Now,seriously,such waiting time for getting a refund for order which I cancelled as soon as I placed?! Disgusting!
Ps: Apparently,they were having national holidays in china from Oct1-Oct8.Just great!
Could this be a reason for late refund processing?

Don't worry banks do take a bit, for 45 days since the first purchase you are secured(more or less) - also in aliexpress they do check the messages between the buyer and the seller - so don't worry too much
Anyone have any recommendations regarding reliable stores on Ali Express
The 7 pro is about 1 to 200 euro cheaper there at the moment.
I understand that it will be china model but seems like a deal.
Anyone any experience with this ?
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/group/Oneplus/311331_515316811.html?spm=a2g17.12010608.nav-list.36.44257b99Ma8S05
This is the seller which my friend is working with. He is trusted since me and my friends bought a lot from him.
So you save up to 200 euro to wait at least 30 days for shipping from a sketchy retailer you have no info on.
Or just wait 25 days, you will potentially be able to save up that extra 200 euro, then order directly from oneplus or another trusted retailer near you and get it in the same or possibly sooner time frame and it will be the correct model for your region.

I'd still have to pay €750 for the phone that way I could actually do that now if I wanted to but I wouldn't be saving anything
Site is trusted & tested ,If Anything goes wrong AliExpress team Steps in & Almost gives decision in favour of customer. They Even sometimes flash International rom on it. I ordered Oneplus 1 from them & several items afterwards

I just got information from the seller that If you write a message to this seller during the order and give him my nick as a code: Dorsefrith you will get 5% discount
You will have to wait with payment until he lowers the price.
Gone off the idea of using AliExpress,seems it's hit or miss when you will actually receive the device and stores advertising 6-8 days DHL is just an empty promise and then you've got the possibility of dealing with Customs,It's easy to get pulled in with the prices but overall not worth the hassle.
Gearbest is decent should be faster than Ali Express and some coupons for discount, Also avoid DHL they're a scam. I've had problems with them in the past with custom charges etc.
I want to buy from Gearbest but the phone was sell only from China or Hong Kong warehouse. Price was Good.
In my country, 19% vat + 2-4% custom... NO ! Thanks. But NO!
I both from a sales forum in my country a blue OnePlus 7 pro 8gb-256gb with 550 euro . Wonderful!

You'll still pay import taxes, if not then it's an illegal sale.
