Hello all
Basically I am having to put an insurance claim in for my old XDA and the insurance company need me to get quotes for a replacement (which will be the XDA2). However, having searched many places in the UK everywhere can only give me prices for contract XDA2's.
Does anybody know of shops or retail outlets that will sell the XDA2 sim free??? O2 themselves won't, Carphone Warehouse etc won't so apart from Ebay (which I do not know if the insurance company would be happy with) I am a bit stuck.
Any one offer any advice??
With thanks

Hi,
The only place I know about is http://www.expansys.co.uk . The price is expensive though as its sim free, but if your not paying. Who cares
Rgds,

I'm buying my xda2 tomorrow sim free for £300 from my local o2 shop as they have a special offer on at the moment
Moonmonkey, can you give more details about this offer, they are selling you an xda2 without a contract at £300? I didnt think O2 sold phones unless they hooked you to a contract.
It doesn't matter if you get one locked to O2 as within this web site is the software to unlock it. It will have the O" logo and settings in it but that doesn't matter as you can change the ROM as well. I've lost the link within the site for it but it's free and works. just follow the easy instructions.

I'm buying mine sim free as its a replacement phone to my xda1 and I don't want another contract..Erm well normally they sell it sim free for something stupid like £400-450 and with contract for £350...they reduced the price to £300 earlier this year then down to £200something with contract so the price for simfree naturally went down aswell...I'll fill you in when I get bck from the shop hopefully later today
Good luck Moonmonkey, regardless of price if you can find any o2 shops that have the xda II in stock i'll be impressed.
If only o2 spent a small part of there advertising budget keepng there distribution channels properly stocked!
Brand new xda2 on ebay, £400 buy now
here is the link, make sure you can collect, it looks genuine to me but be aware of scammers, do not part with cash until sure, the guy wants immediate payment via paypal.

IS IT JUST ME OR ARE O2 JUS PLAIN STUPID?
Go to the O2.co.uk shop online and order one for 139.99 on any contract. It's amazing how many different prices they've got for it every time you ring them!

sorry i left the cap lock on
any1 know if any o2 shop in london has any exec's in stock?
I got mine on an upgrade - £220 but £10 off my monthly bill. Works out at £100 for the phone over the year.
I did mention it the sales lady that I can get it on a new contract for £140 and she offered the money off the tariff then.
I doubt if they sell at all in shops. I tried Ox street but they didn't have it. I bought mine online. Check if it is in stock before bying online, they don't do PRE-ordering stuff.
cheers

They have plenty.
Just picked one up in Reading today to replace my JASJAR which I am selling.
They said they had 6 in stock.
:arrow: rilot
being one who has been deliberating for the past few days whether to buy the O2 Xda Exec or the JasJar
(as far as I see - the Exec's benefit being its looks and much lower cost Vs the better and more frequent firmware updates of the JasJar) -- could you please share the benefits of your knowledge and experience as to WHY you are replacing one model with the other
thanks
@techdot,
the Exec is £100 cheaper SIM free than the JJ, that's a good reason I think!
techDot
My main reason is that I can sell the JASJAR for approx £550 which pays off my Vodafone contract.
O2 have excellent data bundles such as the one I'm on which is 75MB/month for £18.
Overall, the total cost of ownership is considerably lower with the XDA Exec and an O2 contract in my situation.
I am willing to sell my XDA exec, there seems to be nothing wrong with the handset and it has been used for 1 full day for testing purposes.
I am either going to sell it privately or sell it on Ebay..
Will post to hmmmm... Worldwide? but once you buy the PDA, I am not held repsponsible if it doesn't work in your country!
Buyer will pay for sim free phone, box + accessories, shipping and handling.
Let the bidding begin!
No private messages please. Ask what you want to know here...
400 pounds?
san
how much u want for it considering everyone can buy one from o2 for about £340
£340? - how do you do that
I paid £363 total
£135 + 12X£19
I would like this phone
peteypye, I will pay 410 pounds
damn ppl you should really speak to o2 and see that will sell to u for about 340 - 370 i am looking on ebay and various other site for a bargain
Thats for ppl living in UK who can buy it with a contract!
I live in another country, and a Jasjar is my only bet...which costs 660 pounds!
So, i guess, its a good buy for me
San
:? Yes you can buy it from o2 - on a tarrif. I am selling the PDA sim free ...
Please note im also advertising it elsewhere, so I may get it sold sooner than you all think!
I like the prices you're offering.. keep them coming!
If you would like any info or whatever you need, you can PM me..
I'm about to sign a new contract with T Mobile and can get either a Vario or (for £150 more) another Pro.
So, I'll get whichever will make me the most money. Anyone interested in either? Please PM me your price. It'll be a very one-sided arrangement, however.
Paypal only :?
Will ship anywhere
Except Nigeria :x
Once payment has cleared
You can have it unopened, still with the seal on the box, or I can open it to test it for you
I will be buying this either the end of this week or Monday/Tuesday next week
If you want some level of buyer protection, I'll list it on ebay with a buy-it-now, but that'll add £25 quid to cover the fees + hassle.
I'm told T Mobile will unlock the unit after 1 month for a fee (around £15 or £20). If this is the case, I am happy to get the unlock code and pass it on at cost. If this is NOT the case, my MDA Pro is unlocked - make me an offer I can't refuse for it and i'll keep the locked unit :wink:
I wish you were getting an O2 Exec, so I can bid for it.
I like the color of the O2 Exec than the MDA Pro.

Hi,
Can u pls tell me the exact price with shipping and insurance included to India....I am interested....
For shipping, take a look at
http://sg.royalmail.com/servlet/acedispatcher?funcId=100&AceApplication=consignia&pageId=frameset
I'll insist on a signiture on delivery and onm £500 insurance.
Assuming India, Major Towns 1, and also assuming 1.3Kg (it should be less than that) between £11 and £30 depending on speed of service (air or surface mail).
I will use other major carriers, but only if they have a depot in Norwich, England.
Just had it confirmed that I will be able to get whichever handset I purchase unlocked to work with sims from any network, although this may take up to 28 days to receive. I could sell the mda pro I'm using right now, which is unlocked, if someone needs one urgently
Willing to sell my XDA Exec.
------edited-----
Same goes for my exec. Its boxed, sealed, never opened. Actually was purchased as a gift for my brother. He Liked mine so I bought another for him. Turns out he doesn't want it. So i'm stuck with a boxed one. Any takers?
£500 with full papers. Though I think it comes with UK/Europe limited warranty. Atleast mine did.
i'm selling a brand new mda pro with all the paperwork 2 make the warrenty valid for £500
My O2 Exec was stolen yesterday and my insurance company need me to find out how much a replacement costs. Unfortunately, O2 insist that as they are not available on a PAYG basis they cannot give me a phone-only price. :roll:
Is there anywhere that is selling these online without a contract so that I can provide my insurers with the info they need? I don't care what it's branded as and I don't really care how much it is, I just need an official published price.
Thanks in advance.
I think you can only buy one second hand.
Surely somebody must be selling them without a contract...?
at eBay you can find it....
I know you can get used ones on eBay, but I need a reputable seller who's selling them new as this is for an insurance claim.

They sell them sim free here at £549

Expansys has 401 of them in stock (supposedly!) - http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=119353
Thanks guys, just what I needed.
Can I buy XDA Exec in the U.K. without being O2 customer? That is just pay and go without being an O2 customer or a U.K. Citizen..
I am thinking of going to the U.K. just to purchase a machine.
My girl is going to Germany next month and I know Jasjar can br purchased there as well but I wouldn't want a german keyboard.
Of couse you can. But won't your phone just get blocked when you have it back in Turkey.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54910&highlight=imei
what is the point of going to uk in order to get exec??..loads of e-stores sell them or check out ebay.co.uk
cheers, cudo
Hello,
TO: kevino
They no longer block phones in Turkey. They stopped doing so about 2 weeks ago.
TO: cudo
The point is not to pay outrageous taxes and be tourched with Turkish customs for 8 hours.
Anyway,
Where is the cheapest place to purchase it in the U.K. ?
Or cheapest online store? I don't mind buying the Qtec 9000 since it's the same thing.
I still think that the best way is to get one off ebay..and the seller may send it as a gift so there is gonna be no tax and custom. the other thing is ebay is the cheapest
Find someone in UK you trust with £300 and have them buy it for you.
Then have them ship it to you as a gift. You can then prove that you aren't to pay customs on it with one phonecall to your friend. Your friend in the UK can phone Turkish customs and tell them that it was bought off ebay by them as a gift for you, without mentioning the money that you sent them for it.
If you would like the numbers of some really nice Turkish people over here that might help you out (and actually speak your language lol) I can send you them I have a few Turkish friends that would be trustworthy with that kind of money.
Of course, this assumes that you trust me to give you other people's numbers and not be pulling a fast one on you to grab your £300 ...
It is all about trust, isn't it?
Doing it this way has to be cheaper than flying over here just for a phone.
Gift exemption only appies under a certain value. Unless you are willing to take the chance of declaring the value as about £20, you'll probably still get taxed.
BUT, if you DO take that risk and declare it as low value, they may pull it anyway and question why a device like that is only worth £20.
Your choice
hi preditor.
thank you so much for getting back to me...
i sent you a PrivateMessage let me know..
thanks.
