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.

Hello Everyone...
I have been asked a few times about costing for the i-MATE unit that was purchased from Compume from the A.U.E in the middle east. Just to recap, Compume was great to deal with and shipped the units from there to Canada including a stop at customs in Montreal in seven days door to door. If you've been following the posts you'll know that myself and my friend ordered a total of two units. The customs and such forms just arrived so is the total low down.
Compume shipped the same day we ordered and it was billed to my credit card after faxing them the front of my visa card and front of my drivers licence for fraud protection (safe for me+ them)
The box weighed 3.5 kg
The cost of each unit was $ 842.12 USD
The shipping cost for TWO units together was $ 176.00 USD
Taxes in Ontario (whether we like it or not) $ 192.56 CDN
Broker Fee per unit $ 13.50 CDN
The i-MATE has a complete and full one year worldwide warrenty (no questions asked) simply get a return voucher number and include it with your dead i-MATE. HTC will pay for shipping return to them plus insurance and send you a new or fixed (but probably new based on the email I received from them) once your item arrives. This will take less then seven days to get to them and the stated new device from the AUE to Canada 10-14 days (again at their expence I might add).
So there you have the details and the costing. Shipping would have been less of course with only one item but I can't say how much. The box was very large (about 3/4 size) of an orange box. Items were packed in styro and the i-MATE boxes inside that. Arne is selling the same units at PPCW.net and these are in fact the only English ROM units with full warrenties on the market and HTC looks like it is going to be great to deal with from my emails from them and so forth. I think both my friend and I would highly recommend both Compume (or Arne) but more importantly these units. You know have the exact pricing here so I hope that answers everyones questions about costing.
If you have any other cost questions certainly email me if you would like further clarification.

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
Ian J
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.

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

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:

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
Hey Guys ( And girls ),
I have 3 new Atom's for sale, All in original pack. including everything, unlocked, All of them come with a warranty, and i bought them in HK.
Best price you will ever find :
560 US$ per Unit.
I live in Israel- shipping will be from Israel.
Contact me if you are ineterested.
I can accept all major credit cards through my store, and PayPal.
and how I can find you after I make the paymant? :?:
I Have a ...
Store..and ill give you all the details you ask for.
If general market is selling Brand New Atom at least USD650, why would you like to sell at big under-cut of USD560??
Would that be your warehouse cost is such expensive that you have to sell those devices out immediately??
Or other reasons??
Very simple...
The phone is starting to be provided both by Orange Israel and Cellcom Israel, at a lower price ( about 500$ ), under a contract of 3 years.
So as simple as that, if i do not sell them now, i may be not not be able to sell them at all.
Thanks
not very convincing:
you are targeting to sell Atom to oversea, therefore an upcoming price-cutting locally in Israel won't force you to cut price deep.
It seems..
Like you're s salesman, Why dont you provide me with a suggestion then ? Huh ?
I am just a man who hate people selling "2nd hand" under the cover of "New".
Full Stop
Try ebay.
Anyway, atom at US$560 isn't cheap on eBay
(I think, compare to Charmer). They are selling much cheaper.
