Hi
I've got a brand new (as of midday today) MDA Vario for sale. It was an unwanted upgrade as I've already got one on another line. Brand new, opened only to test it was working and to charge, I've got the receipt with today's date on, all the packaging etc.
Looking for £335 inc postage or £325 collected from central London (West End) or SW London (Fulham/Putney area), which includes a £10 donation to these very forums should I sell it through here
Thanks for looking
Zathras
Is this unlocked? I'm very interested in it.
What do these go for then? I'm about to sign for a Web'n'Walk tariff as it fits my needs. I can get either a Vario or (for £150 extra) an MDA Pro. Whichever handset I get, I don't need it (my managerie includes a Universal, two XDA Wallabies and a Canary) so I intend to sell it.
1) What's pretty much the min price I'd get for a quick sale of a brand new, locked Vario? Either posted here or ebay buy-it-now?
2) Can the Vario be unlocked easily yet or would I need a code from T Mobile?
3) Anyone interested?
There's one on Ebay up at £360 and climbing without breaking a sweat: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/i-mate-K-JAM-...ryZ32242QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I've not seen many others for sale, but am not bothered about making profit - I just want to match the price of my contract - so don't want to go through the hassle of ebay. Also, I really would prefer not to have to ship abroad.
I don't expect to cover my contract expenses (I'm going for a higher tariff), but if someone wants to make me an offer, I'll be buying either a Pro or a Vario towards the end of this week or start of next week. You can choose: brand new, unopened or I could open it up and test it works before shipping it.
I WILL ship anywhere, apart from Nigeria, but will only take Paypal payments. PM me if interested.
I've put my "terms of engagement" here:

Hi people,
I want to swop my current xda for an xda mk2 and was just wondering if anyone knew a good way of doing this - I Emailed o2 coustomer support and they said that they weren't operating a trade in at the moment but to check back later. However, i'm impatient ;-). Is there anyone whos traded an xda in with a high street shop or will my best bet to be sell it on ebay? On a sort of related point, has anyone found the cheapest site to buy a new xda2 (with contract, want around a £20-£25 a month one)? The best i've found seems to be;
http://www.e2save.com/e2001/php/matrix/disphandset.php?network=O2&handset=XDA2
on O2 Leisure Time Plus + 100 SMS.
For reference for trade in etc, my XDA is the 64mb version with the latest official o2 ROM, unlocked thanks to the unlock utility from this very site, Good condition (natural wear and tear, marks around the infra red port but still works fine), still got box+manuals+cd+cradle+charger+leather case but not the headset (broke). Comes sim free (still got 1 onth left on 12month min. contract, but willing just to pay that).
Thanks in advance for any help,
Mark
You would be better to sell it, but make it quick as Ebay is getting flooded with them. Or you could offer it for sale here on the forum, how much you hoping to get for it?
i sold mine 2 weeks ago, as soon as i heard the news that it was available from 1 november in my neighbour country germany, and got one 1 week ago. sold for 250 € and bought one for € 650
Well with the keyboard i was hoping to get around £200 or so. Need that much to make it worthwile to upgrade or I may as well stick with the XDA1.
Decided to put it on Ebay now rather than risk leaving it and the site becoming flooded - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2766011342 if anyones interested
I just sold my xda privately, I got £160 with all the origanal stuff and it looked quiet well looked after, when it's unlocked the "pay as you go" people cant resist the prospect of an unusual phone away from the usual boring nokias, and since my brand new xdaII was only 150 on a £45 p/m contract I`ve got one of the most cutting edge mobiles on the planet, and made a tenner
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,
Rob.
Top man Rob
No probs dude.

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.

I used to buy it from Scanocom.co.uk for 240GBP, but price is now closer to 300GBP. Any ideas on the cheapest online retailers?
Just get in on a contract. You cant beat these deals:
http://www.phones2udirect.co.uk/Products/type/phones/ProductID/5654/NetworkID//I-Mate_JAM.asp
I got my Jam from them - they were quite on the ball with everything.
With that free Jam on O2 that the have, you'd be better off than buying the phone SIM free, especially when you calculayte what a SIM-Free Jam will cost PLUS how much you spend on mobile phone each month.
I got mine a week or two ago from http://buymobilephones.net/store/merchant-2-34.ihtml.
They have the imate and qtek on all networks, about £30 on contract - qtek is same thing but with 2 years warranty instead of 1 on imate, so no question really. Quite cheap, fast, professional service (I decided to change network after placing my order and they were very happy to make changes etc. Still got delivery next day!).
You're welcome to use me as a referrer if you do go with them!

i got mine from AGBglobal... they are in UK and they are very helpful.

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
Sick of ebay wasters and the insurance company who seem to think that I need a laptop [-]
Well, I smashed the screen on my MDA pro two weeks ago and it's hardly useable. If there's anyone in the UK who wants to sell me theirs (any brand: QTEK, Imate, o2, Orange, T mobile) then PM me please. Cash waiting.
Got one
Update:
OK, I've ordered a couple of units which I should have next week. Although my insurance co have finally coughed up and I should have my replacement on Monday!
So, before I ebay the BNIB XDA Execs, anyone here want them? They will be treated as a trade sale (my company will not provide any warranty) and the price is £255.32+VAT (£300 including VAT) + shipping each. If you are outside the EU, you won't have to pay UK VAT.
This is assuming this deal goes through and my orders from the supplier are honoured.
First come first served - this is not a money spinner for me, although I'm not intending to lose out on the deal!
To clarify, I ordered two before I knew the insurance co would
1) replace my old unit
2) Not want my old unit
So they are sending me a new one and I'll get my old one repaired (been quoted £139+VAT by www.turnonyourmobile.com)
So that means the two I've ordered will be surplus to requirements. I reckon that's a cracking deal and I'll sell them on if anyone wants them. If I don't get any replies before my order is confirmed, I'll just cancel my order.
