My co habitant is new to Ebay and started sellling these hard back cases at the lowest prices in Ebay UK (ships from the UK too).
So I thought I would like to share these with everyone:

Already purchased two of these from another seller on ebay (at a cheaper price).
Problem is they provide no protection for the top & bottom of phone.

I decided to purchase a Case Mate from Play.com. They are more expensive but provide the best protection. They are on sale on ebay for £24.95 but Play are selling them for £14.99.

the Tough case is really good for protection
but a bit uncomfy when inside your pants pockets
the other cases have a better feel

(Arrived in 3 days).
I first started a thread quite a while back and the sellers is selling it for £ 2.90 and free p&p and is based in london and he told me that they getting the mesh case soon as well. When I get the phone who should I buy it from?

Gotta agree, those look better. Definitely gonna grab one of those. Thanks for the links
co-habitant said he might be getting those mesh cases soon, what colour would you guys be most interested in? (white,green,pink,black or red)
I would like red and white does her order out from g market? If so could you ask if he could get a coca cola case?

Hi,
I believe he orders directly from the manufacturers, not G market.
He told me to ask what price in pounds would everyone be willing to pay for these mesh cases and possible the SGP slider cases?
Thanks!
ok cool no worries i think around a tenna cause its that price from the korea's
Anyone got any more experience of the Cae-Mate Tough Case? Looks like the kind of thing I need (I'm notoriously cack-handed!) but worried it bulks the phone out too much. Are they pocketable (jeans) or are you resigned to jacket pockets and manbags only?
I have bought the black one - very good quality - really recommend to all!
I bought a red one of these for a slightly different look in actual life the red colour is a metalic cherry red not the bright red in the pic. Get 2 free screen protectors as well which is cool.

JUST GOT one of these from ebay. The quality of the material is excellent.
but they have 2 major flaws preventing them to be useful
1)The surface of this case is smooth , so still has difficulty holding the phone.
2)keeping this phone on the back on table, you will miss most calls, as the speaker is almost completely covered in this position.
if these two flaws are corrected we have a killer case.
Anyone seen any documentation or reviews of the Montblanc accessories? I'm interested in the case.

You can look at the products at their website here. Keep in mind though that they're extremely expensive, here are the products on their store. Yes, you read those prices correctly,
You can see someone using one of their pens here.

No problem. I'm not interested in buying anything from them, but it is interesting to see what they can do better. Haven't found anything other than that video that showcases their products for the Note 4. Guess we'll have to wait for October.

Good god, how can they justify charging that much for a case?
I wish they would just make a decent leather flip at a reasonable price rather than this cheap plastic [email protected] they have on the s5 and note 4 cases. I don't care if it says mont blanc to be honest I would rather it didn't as most people I know that use a mont blanc are rather pretentious

I agree I would like a real leather flip cover that also replaces the back cover. How difficult can it be?

Mont Blanc is the only thing you're paying for. The probability of the quality being low is also very low, but the thing you're paying for is that star. The Mont Blanc Star is much more powerful than the Nike check, or most any logo in the world of buying everyday things that are really expensive. Does a Bentley get you somewhere more so than does a Ford? No, if you're there, you're there. Does a Bentley get you there more comfortably? Arguably, but at the same time, arguably not depending on who you ask. No F150 man will ever be driving a Bentley and be happy about it. It's really about your preference and if 350 dollars is nothing for you then you will not care about that price tag anyway and buy it. It's more something of soft leather, hand stitched, all that snooty crap.
That being said, I am still waiting in this lifetime to buy my first Mont Blanc. The closes I have come is Cross... so... you know where I lie on this list.
PS - I drive a 99 Jeep Wrangler lol

To me, this is comparable between choosing between the new iPhone and the Note 4.
Do I want to spend more money for the brand as opposed to the features? The damn case can't even hold cards? Really?
I'll keep my eye on the case and if I choose to make the risk in purchasing the case then i will be sure to provide a review; if I end upI getting the case, please dont consider me pretentious

Thanks for showing off some pictures of the case.
It would be most appreciated if you are able to let us know how you think the case is. It looks sleek and classy jn my opinion, but it would be nice to see how well it can protect the phone toting such a price tag.

Probably £100 too expensive for what it is. Super high quality and lovely finish. But here is the kicker - made in Korea. Makes me think actually made by Samsung supplier. Will share more views over the weekend.
Haha I would not be surprised with that fact as well.
It would be a clever marketing scheme. There are individuals out there that would pay a premium for something that is not widely available to other individuals simply because of the price tag.

Thank you for the pictures. The case looks lovely (even though I'd choose the soft leather one ). How much did you pay, if you don't mind me asking.
What do you think about the "exclusive" features, i.e. fountain pen style on s note?
I'm seriously considering buying this...

I bought the Xperia Z2 from eBay. It was 10K less then on Amazon (INR).
So basically, these devices are international variants, brought from international markets such as China & sold in your country, the phone is absolutely fine but you might get the charger of some different country. Also, you might not get manufacturer warranty but sellers warranty, which means if anything goes wrong, you cannot take your device to Sony & raise a claim, you'll have to return it to the eBay seller & he'll hook you up with a replacement.
The best part was
When i bought the Z2, I received model version D6503 which hat LTE/4G whereas the Z2 available in India was with the model version D6502, which did not support LTE/4G.,
I got my phone from here and got it within two days.

Yeah. It's a bit narrow and due to the curved glass it lifts on the edges no matter how much I press down on it.
Another member posted in another thread of a 3D glass screen protector. I might wanna give that a shot. But I might also just wait till the SCTF10 case is available on eBay.

I've been looking at that seller as it's much cheaper than buying in Australia ($999 AUD for Forest Blue).
My main concern is the warranty and stuff, which seems non-existant on (international) phones for Sony.
Can you tell me a bit more about how the item was packaged / gifts received / safe to buy?

I'm from Melbourne and I bought mine from an eBay seller called "buybuybox" for 807 AUD delivered. It only took 3 business days from order to arrival on my desk. No complaints so far.
Wow! Nice shop! Thanks for share!
the extended warranty is how it works?
No idea, I assumed there was no warranty. I didn't really read the ad though lol.

Lol i read the warranty is for 12 month and can be increased to 24 month with optional overpriced
However I think 12 month is the most convenient given that in general offers them the producer.
For what it's worth, I just bought an XZ from the seller tropical_mobile on eBay on Tuesday, and it showed up today from Singapore.
Compared with the US retail version, the only differences I noticed were that the box was sealed, included some cheap earbuds, a screen protector that doesn't give full coverage, and the power adapter is gigantic.
As for customs, there wasn't a declaration form anywhere on my package.

Yes. It was part of the built-in setup process. Though in fairness, I had also flashed the generic UK ROM on a US phone, and the reader worked just fine there, too.
Anyway, when the phone first booted, there were some messages in what I presume to be Mandarin. I have no idea what they said, and I don't remember the US version doing that out of the box. Once you tap through them, you get the option to change the language, and it was pretty much smooth sailing from there.
Anyone from the UK bought the dual XZ from the Uk comment on decent sellers?

Hi. Like many, I bought a Chinese version of Mate 9 (MHA-AL00) because it has superior specs. Unfortunately, the phone was dropped and I now have a small crack in screen and scratch on bottom side near speakers. What is the best way to get this repaired? Is there any place in the US that will service this phone? I contacted Huawei in US and they won't touch it. I asked if they could order the parts and have it fixed. I will pay for it and they said the phone is too different for them to repair. The reasoning escapes me here... Any help here would be appreciated! Thanks!

Do you want your phone fixed, or have genuine parts? I've not seen genuine Huawei parts outside an authorized Huawei repair shop. My replacement screen works though and looks mostly like the original did. Outer frame can be found there as well probably, but I haven't looked yet.

Well, both actually! I want the phone fixed using genuine parts. Currently a Chinese friend is kindly contacting Huawei in China to see if I can mail it to an authorized repair shop there. Unfortunately Huawei US won't touch my phone. I don't understand why Huawei US can't just order the parts from China and fix it for me in US. I can't believe the variants are that different structurally and I'm willing to pay the cost.

Different region have different policy for their phone if there no different why they need to be sell on different model and version as International or Chinese / Asia / Europe. When you buy the chinese version you should know it will not cover any warranty beside Huawei china. Yea because you save few dollars for buying the chinese version and you want to enjoy the full international version benefit? You get what you pay is that hard to understand?

Hi. I think the misunderstanding is on your part. I bought the Chinese version because it has better specs than the one one sold in US. More ram and more memory. Better meets my needs. Not because it is cheaper. Btw, it was more expensive. Second, I fully understand that warranty does not cover Chinese version outside of China. I have been in contact with merchant that sold phone and they can send it to have it repaired by manufacturer. Just want to avoid having to send phone back to China. Would prefer to have official parts mailed to me and have repaired here in US. But to be clear, I am not asking for repair that is covered by warranty. I am asking about a repair that I will fully pay for. Is that hard to understand?

Hi. Your question is the point of this thread! Hopefully we will have an answer we are happy with. I'm still checking on possibilities. I originally bought my phone from Geekbuying. They have offered to send it back to manufacturer for repairs. So you might consider contacting the merchant you bought it from. I am still waiting to hear from my Chinese friend. Once I know more I'll post what I learned.
The official announcement for the Moto Z4 is only for the US. Do you think there is hope for a European model soon?
In this FCC leak (https://www.xda-developers.com/motorola-moto-z4-play-specifications-fcc/) it said that a version for Europe is planned. But many German websites claim that this is a US only phone. But they don't cite any source for this claim.
Would like to know whether I should still wait or buy something else. Thanks a lot!

Motorola Germany said, at least on their market, they wouldn't have any Z4 coming this year.

Thanks! Do you have a link? What does "on their market" mean?
I can't find it but if you notice on the UK and IT there isn't any information about Z4.
There's a higher version of z4
Z4 Force
According to Motorola there will not be force this year https://www.theverge.com/2019/5/31/18647830/motorola-moto-z4-force-not-releasing-this-year

Well that's just stupid. On the other hand, Moto Z4 does support bands B3, B7 and B20. So it's still possible to import.
Hope it's not their final decision. The way it's written looks like there's a door open.
As for importing - no warranty and an extra $/€/£ 100 or so for shipping(unless a buddy brongs one for you) makes it a tough decision.

You're right. Suddenly a Moto Z3 Play with that battery mod included for 250 eur seems like a sweet deal. Also, I'm interested what Xiaomi Mi A3 will bring to the table
I've researched. It will only cost me $ 20 to get it where I live. Now the question is if it does indeed support the right bands for over here.
I'd also wait for some other offer, preferably a battery, as I already have the 360 camera mod.
You can check all the bands here at the bottom of the page: https://www.motorola.com/us/products/moto-z-gen-4-unlocked
If this Z4's low performance with high price, I don't think this model will good-sale in Europe.
Low performance with high price? Isn't it other way around? Which other phone offers 128gb storage, 6.4" screen display, night vision camera, headphone jack, in display fingerprint reader and micro sd card for under $500? Not even going to bother mentioning the added benefits of mods.
Excellent camera!?
What I have found Z4 has better camera, than for example Google Pixel 3a. In my mind way better video camera.
Is there any other Motorola phone, which has that camera? And is it really possible Z4 is not coming to Europe?
Really want to buy this phone so I can replace my z play. Hope it can be sold to other countries and release a dual SIM version.
I've ordered it, should be here soon. Hopefully all works as expected.
I am from Germany and were lucky to have got the rare opportunity to get a second hand Z4 from Germany. So no import charges and no expensive shipping cost.
I have not regretted the purchase yet. No problems with frequency bands, connection and so on. I really like the phone. What I noticed, especially, is that it is very much less sensitive to signs of use like scatches or similar. With all my former Z Series devices, I could at least see scratches at the frame very quickly - even although using a bumper most of the time. With my Z4, I only use a StyleShell for the back with zero protection for the metal frame at the sides and still not one single scratch. Wonderful!
No warranty is not really true. The truth is, you will have warranty, but you will have to send it to the USA then. I can not imagine that shipping a little box only containing a flat mobile to the USA could be that expensive. For warranty, you only have to send in the mobile and nothing else. So warranty claims will only become more complicated. But for me, Z4 is worth that risk and inconvenience.
And after all: Z4 is a REAL battery beast!
Well I've got it. All works as expected. First impressions are really good. Still getting used to the taller aspect ratio.
I also seem to have gotten the amz one. Don't mind the few mb bloatware. I just wonder if software updates will be as usual or further delayed?

According to reviews use of StyleShells is one of the biggest drawbacks with Z4, as they don't fit to the frame as nice and seamless as on previous Z models. I'm also using StyleShell on permanent basis and while it maybe not so big issue with some of the bigger and shortly used mods, it seems like showstopper to me if there is a gap and StyleShell doesn't fit well. Would you be so kind to clarify this? Maybe you can make some photos of your StyleShell attached?
