Hi all,
I'm looking to pick up a sim free Touch HD (for use on T-Mobile). Over the past week I've done some research and I've found the following prices:
Carphone Warehouse (bought with O2 simcard) - £440.36 Phone + £10.00 PAYG O2 sim card {TOTAL = £450.36 inc VAT}
PrePayMania.co.uk - £499.99 inc VAT (+ FREE 5 DAY P&P) + 5% QuidCo {TOTAL = £476.18 inc VAT}
TotalPDA.co.uk - £505.99 inc. VAT (+ £9.95 P&P) + 5% QuidCo {TOTAL = £491.84 inc VAT}
Handtec.co.uk - £501.76 inc. VAT (+ £6.95 P&P) {TOTAL = £508.71 inc VAT}
LambdaTek - £505.48 inc. VAT (+ £9.50 P&P) {TOTAL = £514.98 inc VAT}
Clove.co.uk - £527.85 inc. VAT (+ £7.90 P&P) {TOTAL = £535.75 inc VAT}
Play.com - £474.99 ex VAT (with RAC voucher below) (+ FREE P&P) + 4% QuidCo {TOTAL = approx £546 inc VAT before QuidCo)
Expansys - £544.99 inc VAT (+ £6.95 P&P) {TOTAL = £551.94 inc VAT}
Handtec beats LambdaTek by a few pounds if that makes a difference....I just bought mine from them, ordered late Friday night and it was delivered in USA Monday morning with cheap shipping:
501.76 inc VAT

Thanks! That's a pretty good price.. Assuming there's not a lower price I'll order one and get on with selling my trusty old Kaiser and brand new Vario IV to fund it
mlalahoi,
How much total they charge you in USD (including shipping, and VAT). Do they charge us for VAT even we are in US? I would like to know the total cost so I won't be surprise.
Thanks!

Ordered mine yesterday from http://www.prepaymania.co.uk/ and its free delivery £489.99.
They are out of stock atm though so
Otherwise play.com is 499.99 and its in stock...
Here's a great deal for the HTC Touch HD
Only £474.99 Delivered
http://www.laughingdeals.com/all-de...cked-mobile-phone-pound-549.99-delivered.html
Yea im just looking for the phone itself.........how much in U.S. Dollars.....im a native TEXAN also
Looks like we might have a potential winner here.
Does Play.com charge VAT on this item? If so the Touch HD could be:
£474.99 delivered inc. VAT = £403.74 excluding VAT. And it might be possible to get 0.5% quidco on top of that too.
Excluding VAT is the price VAT registered businesses and non-EU purchasers would pay (although I'm not sure about shipping costs for outside the UK mainland with Play.com).
Can we get the device any cheaper?
Damn wish I saw that 5% off play.com deal
I have one available posted on HowardForums.

Currently it looks like Play.com has the best deal available, I wonder why they're not showing as out of stock like most of the other retailers!
I might order from them, although it largely depends on what T-mobile can offer first! Thanks to everyone who replied with suggestions, I think we've got the definitive list. Maybe this thread should be stickied for a week or two.
Actually, the Play.com voucher deal only works if you are an RAC breakdown cover customer.
And even if you are, consider that the prepaymobiles through quidco is an extra £24.46 off, making it £464.89 with free delivery.
I got mine from Gumtree.com. Paid £390 for orange version (although completely unbranded) and paid £15 online to unlock. Grand total £405. Completely unlocked and unbrandanded generic software. Only small orange logo printed on battery cover.

Good price as they're going on eBay for around £500. Was yours second hand?..
via PrePayMobiles, it's £421 ex VAT with £24.46 QuidCo = £396.54 which looks like the best possible retail price going for a new Touch HD. Even if you're a consumer and/or not VAT registered, PrePayMobiles is only £489 - £24.46 Quidco.

The guy who sold it to me literally got it as an upgrade the day before. Phone was brand new with all accessories.
I recommend anyone in UK to look on Gumtree for sale section.

I read it as: "For my girlfriend", in which case he's a very generous boyfriend!
My order got cancelled due to stock
Need to get one from elsewhere now, http://www.theorder.co.uk/ seems the cheapest £499 inc del. Not sure if I can claim the VAT back if I buy it through work though....
Anyone ordered from there before?

I've been trying to get in touch with PrePayMania, but they're very slow at getting back to me. I did get a message that they were out of stock, but they don't know when they're getting more in. Which is odd.
Anyway, theorder.co.uk - who knows? Why not order with Play.com? They're the same price (and cheaper if you have RAC membership).
I was just about to buy the Dimond2 from Expansys UK last night. Yesterdays price was £384 but today its gone up to £410....now whats all that about, didnt think they were open or operated on sundays?!?
Guys where would be the best place to buy a Sim Free TD2 in the Uk? without having to get a contract, even though that might be the cheaper option really dont want another contract.
I know devicewire were giving away a free car kit but not anymore :-(
http://www.clove.co.uk/
I ordered mine from New York, received it in two business days & paid a total of 366.00 EUR. Not sure if the price went up though?
thanks mate.....devicewire are currently doing free delivery and at £395 seems to be the cheapest!
unless someone knows of anything better?!?
mobilephonesdirect have them for £372.99 + about £4 p&p but not getting stock till 7th April
or Insight have them for £379.549 + about £10 p&p
They're the best I've seen looking around.

Do you mean £366.00 Pounds? I got mine from there for £357. But since we live in the US we don't pay the VAT taxes.
Clove has it for £393.30 inc VAT.
inkino.com.uk
Expansys don't have them in stock. Just cancelled the order with them.
Cheapest
http://handtec.co.uk/product.php/1868/htc-touch-diamond-2--diamond2-
I've got one for sale in the Marketplace and would be willing to go less than my original asking price there in case anyone is interested.
Thanks.
Play.com
Go to play.com the phone costs £399.00
Then go to www.topcashback.co.uk, register on the website and then search play.com. It's a website that provides cashback on internet purchases from major retailers and its all legit.
Purchase the phone from play.com through topcashback and you get 3.5% cash back on mobile phone purchases and the cost works out at £385 plus free delivery. The cash back is payble in about 2 months. That's how I got mine.
Btw topcashback is a great website I use it for all my internet purchases and to date I've got about £60 in cash back. Oh and no I don't work for them lol.
bro www.handtec.co.uk it's secure shop? anyone have buyed from their ?
Got mine for £ 316.61 ex VAT from Amazon.co.uk free delivery but I didn't have to pay VAT as I'm in the Channel Islands, including VAT it was £ 364.10 with free delivery still one of the cheaper options. Shame they are now charging closer to £ 400 inc VAT. It went up £ 28 since I bought mine last week.
Got mine (Sim Free) from www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk
T-Mobile Combi 25 12 month contract + £121.99 = £421.99 over 12 months including 150 minutes & 150 texts each month.
10% Off!!!
Pity newegg won't take my credit card (I live outside usa but am visiting in 2 weeks) or I'd cancel the order I placed on amazon last night.
Also for those buying in Europe, buy in Italy, I saved 150 euro compared to here in Belgium ! Got mine today and it shipped from Milan overnight ! (www DOT hw1 DOT it) Got the P605.
Price match with Best Buy
http://www.digitaltrends.com/web/best-buy-makes-internet-pricematching-permanent/
Worth a try, add the item to cart with the promo code EMCPWPA23 then print out and take it to Best Buy for price match. According to the article above, Best Buy now matches online retailers, worst case if you have buyers remorse, you have 15 days with no restocking fee.
Awesome deal! Already had the note but since I'm within the 15 day window with best buy they did a price match! Extra 58 bucks in my pocket. Thanks!!!

Hmm..the site looks similiar with the site I recent bought from and I took 32GB instead for 599 Euro. Both also offer 2 years warranty.

Brand new. I have a ****ton of european price comparison websites bookmarked. Always have a good look around before deciding on your purchase. I prefer Amazon above all else, because of their excellent return policy. But 100-150 euro price difference is too tempting
P605 == 523.81 euro // 16GB 4G LTE Black

Expansys.Co.UK in the UK have the WiFi+4G version @ £384 and the wifi only at £319
Very.Co.UK are participating in Sony's £30 cashback offer. They also do 12 months interest free credit. WiFi+4G is £429 WiFi only is £329. They used to do 10% of your first order on tablets but now specifically exclude tablets. Still works for phones...
Nigel
Currys have the 16gb both colours for £329 but use code ANDTAB20 gets you £20 off and you can still claim £30 off Sony bringing it to £279.
Haven't checked quidco or top cashback but you might be able to get a bit off again.
Bargain! That makes it cheaper than the tab S 8.4.

Is that just the wifi, as I cannot seem to find on the description of the device. Believe it must be.

That is what I am contemplating.
I have the Tab Z and Ultra and didn't want to spend on this as the Tab S seemed to have more offers.
Hopefully sony will do something on the tab for black friday.
Also note the expansys price is cheap for the lte model compared to sonys price. Wonder if its a uk model or not.
Expansys ships non UK Tab S
Hi
Code Andtab30 for £30 off at PC world today then you can get the Sony £30 off as well
I can tell you that the TAB S LTE from expansys was NOT the UK version, but rather an Italian version, shipped with both the original EU mains adapter and also a cheapo 2A UK adapter. I just flogged my TabS LTE on fleabay in favour of the Sony Z3 which is a whole lot better tablet IMHO
Nigel
I am sure you are right about it being a better tablet, but that's reflected in the price they are going for I guess.
Want the LTE (which pcworld do not seem to have) but likely wait for the z4 in Jan 15 if they don't do anything on black Friday.
Are you getting the Sony from Expansys or waiting for a UK model?

Yes it is just the wifi version. Nice find on the updated discount code for currys/PC World.
Wonder if Amazon will match it as they currently have it at £309.
I'm planning on waiting a bit longer as the Sony cashback deal ends in March 2015. Plenty of time for further price reduction.

Same for me unless sony gives me a price on bf that is 'must buy' but my experience of their sales is that the discount equates to what others are already selling it for, so ends up being useless.
We will see
Bought my lte model from very.co.uk it is a UK model.

Are you looking for the LTE version because o2 have it for £379 and they are giving away a copy of destiny for free. CEX will buy it off you for £13 but you could possibly sell it for £20/30.
So with the cashback the total would be if you sold destiny to cex £336 or sold it yourself sealed for say £30 £319.
You also have quidco which takes 5% off before vat on payg or on pay monthly theres cashback depending on what tariff you go for.
Just to note if you go payg it will probably be locked to o2.
You could also possibly try to get John Lewis to price match them at £379 as I noticed they might be price matching competitors prices for black Friday. Brings the total to £349 with cashback.
Guys check out O2 uk they are doing a offer on the 4g let version with destiny game and you can claim £30 if you have a receipt of purchase.
Bought it from singapore z3 tablet compact LTE white 16gb for 689sgd - 5% = 650sgd for tax refund still pretty cheap compare to sony indonesia.

£375 for LTE version http://www.expansys.com/more/?sbadd...&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Product+Alerts
Sony have the LTE version for £368 at the moment if you use the supposed expired code from October for the £30 off and cradle for £1 offer.
The cradle for a £1 doesn't work but the £30 off does
Dont suppose I will get the other offer for £30 of with sony direct, but at least I get some quidco.
Oh and its unlocked too.
If you post it on hotdeals, hope you refer, all the best.
Picked up the Wifi version from Currys for £275 using the current O2 Priority code (£25 off a £250 spend) and it still qualifies for the £30 cashback - so hopefully total price will be £245.
As per the title, Carphone Warehouse currently have the black, silver and blue options for £599.99 sim free - that's £50 less than Clove or HTC. Might be worth thinking about if you are considering preordering!
I was going to go with the Sony Xperia XZ Premium, but the HTC U11 seems to be the phone that the Xperia should have been so with the extra £50 off.... I've put my order in! ?
To share the love - if you tweet HTC UK (not sure about other regions) for a discount code then they'll give you 15% off if you order through their website - I saved nearly £100 as it brought the total price down to £551.65!
