Best vendor to buy a sim free Touch HD from? - Touch HD General

I am looking to buy one sim free but will return it for a complete refund if there are any dead pixels or other faults etc. So which vendors have people have good experiences with, particularly on the no quibles refund department?
Play.com (currently one of the cheapest inc 4% quidco discount)
Devicewire
Clove
Handtec
Expansys (though they are Expansive at the moment)
any others?

well, clove.co.uk is a good choice. but as you see. there is completely no vendors could guarantee no dead pixels. they only guarantee 0-3.

I know that, but they are bound by law (long distance selling, I believe) to offer a full refund, without the buyer needing to have a reason as long as it is within the first 7 days. So I was thinking I would return it and say I didnt like the device if it did happen to have any dead pixels.
I wanted to know which vendors people have had good experience with in getting full refund and any to avoid.

I have had excellent experience more than once with Clove Tech.
Before I got the excellent HTC HD I bought a Samsung Omnia (rubbish) and Clove took it back no questions asked.
Their service is v. fast and prices are OK.

Got mine from Play, arrived next day, no dead pixels. Expansys' price for the sim free HD is an insult.
Edit: actually just checked their price it has dropped down to £549.99 it was £604 a couple of days ago, still play is £50 cheaper.

Hi there, did you get an 8GB micro SD card in the box from Play.com, their website doesn't mention it, but Clove's does.

according to the other topic on this subject(lists places where you in get sim free, in order of price), carphone warehouse are doing it on O2 PAYG for £450(instore not online).

Is there any vendor out there that has a HD for under 700 bucks? I want one but its expensive and heck. . .

Will have to check out the Carphone warehouse deal, have a feeling it will be all sold out though. Anyone have any experience of Devicewire as a company, they seem to have reasonable terms and conditions regarding non faulty returns, and they price match too.

My advice is just dont buy one..in saying this Im only thinking of you and the fact that if after the seven days you had a dead pixel from where im standing I could just see you cutting your wrists
I know it might sound amazing but the truth of the fact is that in todays lcd technology there is still a chance not matter what that you might endup with dead pixels and that just a fact that you will have to live up to
Mine actually aparently came with a couple of dead pixels at from day one and tbh they where neglegible but now after about three weeks they seem to have resurected!! ALELUIAH!!

like the first guy said espansys or mobileplanet which are one in the same... it may look higher in price but u get everything but a hoslter and or case for it, most sites ive seen will say there adding the 8gig sd card for extra money or for free but mobileplanet will protect u if anything happens as far as the phone lockin up on u from a master rest

Bought one
Ended up buying one from Handtec in the end, delivered next day and no dead pixels thankfully. The Carphone warehouse didn't have one in any of their branches nor did they know when they will be getting any more (so pretty useless).

Got mine from ebay...
If you are experienced with ebay, then due to the currently low value of the british pound, it is the cheapest to get it from ebay.co.uk.
I got mine (including shipping) for ~595 USD.
That is in Europe with VAT.
Also, I wouldn't care that much about "simfree".
You can unlock it @ htccode.com for 18 euro...

That's a really good idea! It dramatically reduced the cost that I was expecting for the HD, now I would have paid $720 now its like $603.

Goto Carphone Warehouse.. Then ask to buy the phone with an O2 Pay as you Go Sim.
They will sell it to you for £440 + a £10 top up for the O2 sim.
Got mine just before christmas with this deal and no waiting for delivery from anywhere
The phone comes unlocked and I have a spare unused payg sim card now.
Thats if they have stock. In the first store I went into they didnt even know this deal was available but then they had no stock, but they did a search for other nearby stores with phones available for me and it was only a short drive away.

As I mentioned in post no 12 not a single branch of carphone warehouse had any in stock, when the guy checked from the branch I went to, and they didn't know when they would be getting any more. Obviously due to it being such a good deal. You are one of the lucky ones to have got in there early.

Carphone Warehouse can order over the phone for next day delively

Not with this phone they can't. That's what I was told by the 2 branches I went to anyway.

Source for an HD Stateside?

Simple question and I'm lost on it:
Where can I find a Touch HD for the lowest price in the US? The lack of US 3G doesn't matter to me (I live in an EDGE area) and I'd like something nice to replace this half-baked RAZR.
Try mobilecityonline.com or j&R.com
both are located in NY and have good rep

I would suggest mobilecityonline, as J&R will NOT let you return a phone unless it is seriously defective. Mobilecityonline takes returns within 14 days and a 10% restock fee. they also tend to have much lower prices than J&R and just about everyone else.
I bought mine from this seller on e-bay
http://stores.ebay.com/x1387_Panasonic-LG-Other-Brands_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZQ2d1QQfsubZ3QQftidZ2QQtZkm

I also got free next day shipping from Hong Kong. First class service.

So theoficialprice from xpansys ws on december 524 euros I am sure you can find many of them on ebay for much less.....!
The resonis simpel there are many lemons HD2 out there.
If I was you, before buying, read closely all the threads that are talking about bugs.
And best of all just wait few more weeks to see what would be the future new devise out there.

Is this from Handtec.co.uk? Careful, that price is for RETURNED devices. Brand new models are currently £450 - still a bargain though.

When you buy it from expansys.com, you'll get it for 469,99 but with a 30 pounds voucher for other expansys products. Maybe you want to purchase some accessoires anyway.
You can also get a B-Stock HD2 (whatever that means) for 450.
B-Stock = used/opened product.
I bought my HD2 from handtec.co.uk. The was price was around 460.
If you pay by card and the delivery address is different from the billing address you will need to provide proof of your billing address.

Every single HD2 comes with a brand-new resealing sticker in the box for some insane reason....so I would never trust a private sale as being 'sealed'. I sold my 4th one genuinely sealed, never been opened. I'd be willing to bet a lot of these 'sealed' ones don't have the spare seal in the box!

Best deal...who's selling the note for less?

I'll be getting this phone with in the next month, but I was curious what outlets you guys are aware of that are selling the phone.
I saw it on amazon 2 weeks ago for $900.00. Today its around $700, but I wanted to know if you guys knew of anywhere with even better deals.
It's a long shot I know, but I figure it is worth asking. Thanks
I would like to know this too. Seems the 'Hands Down Cheapest Place to Buy' thread is dead
Every day I scour XDA, Google, Ebay, etc looking for prices. I'm in Canada. With taxes,etc I think I'm looking at about $800 more or less (can anyone confirm that?). I think after Christmas I may go for this price but ideally I'm looking to pay about $700 more or less total. Then I'm worried about screen issues or a dead pixel which happened with the Nexus One I ordered from the States so I don't really want to ship it back overseas if this happens which it may judging by other threads...
So I'm looking for it to come down about another $100 but dont know if/when this will happen.
And ideally would like it to be released in Canada or even the US so I don't have to get it shipped which may lower that cost? But don't know if or when that will happen.
Then there is the fear that Samsung will discontinue it and I'll never get one or the prices will shoot up or something?
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/5504/samsung-galaxy-note--16gb--sim-free-unlocked-
About $670 without VAT. From what I've seen in other threads, it doesn't apply if you're outside the EU. I think that might take the cake as the cheapest?
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...RDX6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322262246&sr=8-1
Also Amazon has a couple different sellers with the SGN in stock. Around low 700-750s. Most of these are in the US which would be better in case of a defect.

I ordered mine from HandTec when they had it listed briefly for £418.99 plus £14.99 shipping, for a total of £433.98, (which PayPal converted to $697.46), but HandTec has put the price back to £434.90 + shipping since I ordered. May still be the best price, however.
OTOH, Amazon now has a Prime 2-day shipping seller for $739. I'd pay the extra $40 or so bucks to have Amazon peace of mind if I had seen a price that good 4 days ago.

The new issue with handtec is that fedex will charge you 30 $ 1-2weeks after u get the phone
So because I'm in Canada I'm looking at around $800
But if I was in the US or UK I'd be looking at around $700

Hands Down Cheapest...
Well I still think Clove.co.uk is the best place to buy at this time simply because they're including a matching Samsung OEM Flip Case free! Also, being a commodity and having the price fluxuate by the hour (literally) keep checking MobileCityOnline.com too!
These two places at one point during the day can hit anywhere from $699 - $729 at the absolute lowest. But keep in mind Clove.co.uk INCLUDES the free Samsung OEM Flip Case. For some that's a deal maker plus most other outlets are selling this same flip case for $65 on average.
That is why if you catch Clove on the lower end of price fluxuation it's such a good deal. You won't go wrong choosing either one of these retailers that's the good news. The only possible bad news is at what price you'll end up paying for your Note.
Anyway you do it - your going to LOVE THIS PHABLET!
Abso - ****ing - lutly love it... quote me on that too.
Happy Hunting boys and girls.

Charge $30 for what? FedEx hasn't charged me anything in the States for ordering from Handtec.
By far cheapest place to buy this phone is from India.
You get this phone for about US$ 615-620 range which includes official Samsung flip cover in the package.
If there is significant interest from people in states or UK, some of you guys can get in touch with some ebay.in sellers with good reputation and request him for shipping quote and get him to create a special thread for you guys.
Last time around with SGS2 couple of my mates from US requested a seller from ebay india this way and got him to create a private listing for them and got their SGS2.
Or if you guys trust someone from India around here in these forums, get him to purchase phones and paypal the funds to him.
Note is significantly cheaper here than anywhere else from what I have seen online.

that is a very expensive contract.
Especially taking into account the low amount of minutes and data you get.
Also paying £200 for the phone on top of the £720 is a big slap in the face...
return it and get a 'bigger' contract for less and also only pay a max. of £50 for handset

Darn! Can only select New Zealand or Australia for shipping.
Waiting, waiting, waiting for the price to come down a bit as I'm willing to pay a bit over $700 here in Canada total with shipping, tax, etc. but not willing to pay a over $800!! Just seems like too much...
I had a dream last night I was using my GNote & loving it... maybe the universe is trying to tell me to just order the darn thing

Where to order from? (USA)

So after seeing nothing interesting in the AT&T announcement, I placed my order yesterday with Handtec.co.uk. Even though it was showing in stock, I got an email stating that it ran out of stock just as they were fulfilling my order.
I have Amazon Prime but they are showing 1-2 months shipping time. I'm trying to decide between waiting or paying a premium.
Any suggested reputable sites? I'm in Houston, TX if that matters.

I'd just wait for Amazon if I were you. No risk involved.

I was under the impression that Amazon will not help at all with warranty service if anything goes wrong with the phone (as opposed to Handtec or expansys who can help you with the service if you mail it back to them). Am I mistaken?
Got mine for $649 and free shipping end of November but don't know what it is now since I haven't been on the site. I had it overnighted and no issues at all
Ill look up the site if interested just let me know

If the GNote is fullfilled by Amazon, which mine from Global Mobiles is, the regular Amazon return policy is in effect. Might not help with warranty issues but you could return it if not to your satisfaction. I then bought aftermarket insurance for lost or damaged phone.
while they are not a US warranty - many still have warranties, including the Amazon sellers. Many selling from Hong Kong or UK , so you have to ship back there but are warrantied by authorized Samsung in that country. On ebay many reputable sellers have their own 1 yr warranty. Or on ebay most have squaredeals warranty for $89 ( on defects for 2 years) in the pulldown. Or through the squaredeals sits you can get a more expensive defects and accidents warranty ( w a $99 deductable).

For whatever reason, even Newegg has decided to stop selling the Galaxy Note. I get the feeling that even Amazon's shipment of 1-2 months won't be restocked.
It's like all of the affordable US sellers decided to stop importing the Note. I have a 100 GC with Amazon ....argh.
Thankfully I got mine from Amazon (Global Mobiles) a few weeks ago for $553.99 shipped overnight (had a $100 gift card). Best decision ever.

I see several sellers with the Note in stock at Amazon at 730.00 with shipping of a little over 5 bucks. Handtec is selling for £485.99 which converts to 751.53 US and that would be just for the Note.
So unless I'm missing something, get one from one of the sellers at Amazon who say they have it in stock.

Maybe I'm confused but I ordered the Note yesterday from Newegg for $699.99 and they threw in a Samsung Bluetooth headset. There were a few shops cheaper but I did not want to worry about returns or customer service for $30.
Maybe I got the last one?

But Newegg no return for Cellphone, that why I rather deal with Amazon.

Newegg also offers a protection plan on the note for an additional fee if you purchase through them. It shows up below it on the page for the note and you just add it at time of purchase.

Which online store to buy op5?

I am looking for op5 (from Canada). The price on banggood is $556CAD and on oneplus.net/ca is $650CAD + tax (which is 19% more even after 10% student discount) 6GB/64GB. Do you have any bad experience with banggood? How reliable the oneplus.net is? Any trouble to deal with the seller when your phone should have any problem?
Last question, how do you think huawei p10 plus? It is a much more expensive phone.
I wouldn't trust any other sellers than OnePlus themselves.
Oneplus themselves... You really wouldn't want a bad experience for a tiny bit more. at least that's my opinion
I agree. You usually get what you pay for when using obscure site that many don't know. I knwo you're in Canada, but in the US, unless it's a place like amazon, Swappa or Best Buy, I'm not to into buying phones unless direct from the OEM.
I saw some article about Gearbest selling the phone for $399 if you use a certain code.
Or you can buy it from the official OnePlus website and use a certain code from XDA to get a free OnePlus case. The case is about $30 normally.
The code can be found in some XDA article from last week.
bangood are fine. check its not the chinese version which may limit the bands and have no google play store. i suppose you can flash oxygen rom etc. also remember you will probably run the risk of paying custom tax.
Thanks all. It seems oneplus.net is a reliable place to shopping. Is there data for where people buying their op5? It could be interesting.
I bought mine from OnePlus. I know I overpaid being in Canada with our crappy dollar but I needed to switch to a dual sim phone and the OnePlus was the only dual sim phone I knew of that I was sure I'd be happy with so I was willing to switch from the s8 to the OnePlus 5 even though it was almost the same amount of money. The ordering process was nice and easy and the phone arrived to my door in Canada in less than a week by DHL. I got frequent status updates on the shipping. So far it's better than the s8 in some ways and a downgrade in others. Which is the "better" phone depends what you need or like better.
I would not worry, there is no dodgy copies of oneplus 5 around to my knowledge. Just make sure it has OOS on it ,but even if it comes with the Chinese software you can Flash OOS later. Only on hardware spec(except for memory and storage), Surely you have a one week return policy in Canada also. Android phones never brake until warranty period has expired
No problem here... just got my OP5 from banggood for 400 €... it is 100€ cheaper than oneplus
Buy from the OEM direct even if it costs a little more you have 0 problems with a return or whatever if you have an issue with the device
got mine from aliexpress took 9 days cost £370 6/64 global rom, but then again its a bit worrying ordering from china constantly checking tracking

Thanks mate ! be in the look up for it :highfive:
Ordered mine 128GB from Gearbest on Aug 31th, and the tracking website wrote today "Departure to country of destination". I don't understand if it's from China or from Europe (need to reach Italy)... let's hope !!

Buy from the OEM direct even if it costs a little more you have 0 problems with a return or whatever if you have an issue with the device

I agree with this 100%, i've had way better experiences purchasing direct from the manufacturer when it comes to repairs, warranties, etc. When I purchase from Best Buy or online resllers, the seller just tells me "Welp, you didn't purchase the 300$ warranty so..... You're SOL buddy! Good luck contacting the manufacturer!"
I purchased my Samsung Chromebook plus from Best Buy and regretted it. The chromebook had a hardware defect, I called Best Buy and brought it to the Best Buy store I bought it from and they said "WEll, sorry dude, you didn't buy the warranty.." Then I called Samsung and they told me "If you purchased it through us, we could just replace your chromebook , because you went through a reseller, we can only repair it"
I had to get it repaired twice for the same problem I regret not purchasing from Samsung direct, even if it had been a few bucks more.
