Get Trinity in London - need help! - P3600 General

Hi guys! I am from Rissia, currently use T mobile mda compact. I`ve been dreaming about p3600 for quite while, but it seems to me that i will not be able to get it over here for quite long time.
Anyway, a friend of mine will be in London for few days to attend a chelsey/manchester united football game. He can buy a phone for me, but without any hussle. He will be living in Hilton London Kensington (179-199 Holland Park Avenue) can anyone advize if he can buy Trinity somewhere near that plase, or recommend a trustworthy internet shop that would deliver it to him on time?
Thanks a lot for any advise!

He just needs to take the tube and go to Tottenham Court Road, where there are at least 10 shops selling the P3600. I bought it there last Saturday. And don't forget to tell him that he must be prepared for hard negotiation otherwise he will end up paying 550 pounds which is much much more than he should.

Thanks, Man!
Thanks!
I`ve naver been in London/ Tube means subway? What should he look for at Tottenham Court Road? Are these shops on the street or there would be a mall?
What do you think a reasonable prise should be? 500?
Thanks!

Tell your friend to go here..... I picked mine up for £449 which is the same price as Expansys are charging for theirs.
http://www.inkino.co.uk/zen/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1395
Black and white were in stock when I picked mine up!
Just print off the webpage and go in and ask for it.

Thanks Dave! But where should he go& I guess there is a missing link in your post!
Anyway I am looking for the closest plase with the easiest directions.
Thanks!

Yes tube is the subway. Nearest stop is Tottenham Court Road (easy!). Lots of shops on both sides of the street in Tottenham Court Road near Oxford Street intersection. He can have it for 450.

Thanks a lot, man! You've made my day!

Yes they are open on Sundays (only a few hours though - I think 12 to 5pm). If you pay by credit card they will probably give you a higher price.
Have you considered buying online and having it shipped to you? The cheapest price I can see at the moment is at www.easydevices.co.uk
This is if you want the english version. Otherwise you will find it at cheaper prices in other european countries (check www.expansys.com ).

In that case I will have to pay customs which will be 20% of the value + shipping 40-50 pounds
How much higher the credit card payment may be?
Thanks for the answers, man!
Actually, if they would not include vat in the international shipment I might as well do that. gonna ask them about it..

I don't know what price you can get when paying by credit card. Regarding VAT: definitely it is not charged if goods are shipped outside the EU.

Hi, I've 3 units of the Trinity, if you're interested let me know and are slightly cheaper than the 499.
Let me know if interested.
Cheers

With respect, the price at Inkino (I was there today) is £679.95 You might wangle slightly less with debit/cash.
By the way, my unit is working beautifully. Even though TomTom have yet to certify it, the Inkino guys got the navigation working beautifully.

u should be able to get it end of the month in europe, the devices should be released in asia by the end of the year if everything goes smoothly, i believe HTC should have released it in europe by then
I sent several mails to Expansys UK and they told me:
Dear Sir,
The handset Only Price: £449.95 (382.94 exc.)
Shipping costs 13.95 ukp. We will accept CC or bank transfer as the payment method.

Now my question is; I'm not a Brithish citizen, so I think I have not pay for a tax, I'm right?
They still inform me DUE november 23th. Is that right? just wait for a while.

btw here in italy cheapest price is 630 euros!
any of your portugal shop sell trinity with italian language?
selling for sgd1298 about euro650 over here in Singapore
The Portuguese Web pages that I saw, offer the device in English.
So in moment, no Italian or other language. Hope the Trinity will sale in hole Europe at the end of next week or in two weeks. And of course, you can buy it in your native language.

If they ship to Spain you will have to pay UK VAT. Both the UK and Spain are part of the European Union.

You might indeed get a good deal, since for export the 16% German VAT is deducted, but of course you pay shipping and Singapore VAT. During my Asian travels for the last two years I noticed that prices in Germany are much better than in Asia, wonder why - these boys toys are made in your backyard
Unfortunately this respected online shop of a large trader only sells within Europe, at 501,12 Euro incl. VAT: http://www.handyattacke.de/cgi/websale6.cgi?shopid=etronixx&subshopid=attacke
But even Amazon Germany is not far behind, at 519 euros: http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000JWEAL4/idealode-21/ref=nosim
My local shop promised to match their price, in case I buy this baby...
I made a cancellaton, why? simple, I ordered last saturday and today I don't have the device. I made a call phone to Portugal and they told me the device is in Portugal yet. So, tomorrow I'll make a trip and at the end of the week end and international trip for long term.
Bye, bye Trinity.!!!! I'm so furious.
>lucas0511 - hehehe don't understand german at all so will give the website a pass thanks anyway!!! but although the price is quite a figure in my country i can have a gurantee in which i would not have if i import from overseas, if the set gets damaged along the way to Singapore it will be a major headache for me already hahaha so will stick to buying the set in SIngapore instead!!!
Where to buy the Trinity in the UK
Hi Guys just to let you know that I popped into Inkino in Central London and they have the whole HTC range. Picked up the Trinity. Good thing is that I was able to try it out and get a feel for the unit. Something that the web experience lacks! What also amazed me was that the also keep the Dell x51v and the Fujitsu Siemens n560 and T830. Thought that I would would just mention this as I thought that these units were only available for purchase on the web. Inkino are at www.inkino.co.uk and their store address is 243 Tottenham Court Road, London, W1T 7QS. What also is useful is that they have a Russian speaker (useful for me!) Their other staff include fluent Chinese and Spanish speakers. I have become a fan of shopping in a shop again! Hope this is useful for anyone struggling to find the Trinity as I know some online sellers had run out of stock.

Do you offer discounts to XDA Members?
By the way, Amazon in Germany is selling the Trinity for $590 (no tax).
Do you offer discounts to XDA Members?
no problem in the checkout comment mention XDA-DEVELOPERS you will get free ground shipping USA only.
............Cool!
Is this a good reseller? US warranty?
I was waiting for the bugs to get worked out but I'm starting to twitch
I ordered mine last night through www.smart-mobile-gadgets.com.. He had my order packed up with the UPS tracking info before I even woke up in the morning. I say that's pretty good! I've known many people on the various boards who have purchased through SMG and have been very happy with the service.
Do y'all have it in white? if so then I'm interested.

It's worth to remember that items entering Europe from USA will have to go through customs and import tax must be paid.
Pretty steep price in the U.S., since the Trinity costs 528 dollars in Germany, ex tax and shipping ))

Where? I suppose it is with the German ROM only??
I had a horrific experience with Eten when my Torq P120 died. It took 10 weeks to get a refurb! Frankly, it drove me back to Cingular and I currently have an 8525. The phone I really want is the Trinity though. How do you handle warranty / service with HTC?
@Matterhorn
From current stock, so far black version German ROM only:
www.pdamax.de/
www.mobile-joker.de
If you live outside EU, i.e. near the Matterhorn in Switzerland, you can reclaim German tax of 16% included in all prices. Some dealers might be able to source an English ROM version from their distributor. Good luck.
PS: Just saw your signature, with Swisscom it is clear where you live... But the price in at least the French part of Switzerland is not so bad either, around 550 euros incl. 7,6% (still?) tax...
http://www.infotec-service.com/shop...id=304&zenid=bc6be36be1fc2b6d5cb8158e3412d237
Yes, indeed Eten is a bad choice, their only repair center is in Taiwan...they have to get their act together, the phones are quite good now (i.e. X500 with GPS). HTC on their U.S. website says they only accept repairs sent in through the operators (i.e. Cingular), so you might wanna call them to check the service policy when bought from a respected CA. dealer...

Thanks a lot for the links, Infotec is reputable? The dollar is so low at the moment that CHF 849. = USD 713. So actually USD 649. with no tax and free shipping is not too bad. Of course in the US, you have to order from another state than the one that you live in order to buy tax free.
@Matterhorn
Wow, you are right, the dollar is 1.33 to the euro. So the Trinity would actually cost 573 dollars in Germany, w/o tax. With shipping, customs and Swiss MwSt./VAT it would still make sense to order from Germany, with Euro warranty. Infotec has a quite good name, and they report 100 Trinity in stock...
But up to you, I for my part, and as owner of a Tytn, will wait for a Trinity with official GPS release, if the "standalone" GPS is indeed picking up a live satellite signal. Otherwise I can wait for HTC´s new lineup for Q2 2007, coming here in March 2007, for CeBIT.
Would someone be interested in organizing a group buy? We could have someone in Germany ship the devices to the US, I'll flash the units with English ROM and ship them out to the buyers. It's a win win situation. I'm sure we could get a pretty good price for the units in Germany if we bought them wholesale.

At the moment no-one has successfully changed the Trinity ROM, so your plan sounds a bit adventurous, particularly for those who should trust you sending the stuff back

Adventurous indeed. Well, I was blinded by the beauty of the machine and wasn't thinking clearly. Can you blame me? Is there any way we could get Trinities (plural?) with ROM in English from Germany? Would someone like to look into it, locally? I'm just thinking outloud here.

yes i can ship directly to new york for you. Will take about 4-5 days. Since i am not a store, i can't accept credit card, but you can pay via paypal through credit card, but you need to add 3% on top because of the paypal tax ( will pay to paypal, not me)
or you can use bank transfer.
Device is £600. and the shipping is £50 , and the paypal tax is £20 (if you use paypal)

Looking for x7510

I just find out that x7510 will not not going to sell in my country (Malaysia).
This is indeed a very bad news as I really wanted to buy this unit.
Can anyone recommend any good & trusted online shop which sell this unit (preferably the one that offer the unit with good price) and willing to send to Malaysia & also accept Paypal or Google Checkout.
Now I am looking at expansys UK but it is good to get a few more alternative for comparision purpose.
Thanks

Theres no tax for you also, so you can exclude vat
packing yea was good. Water proof sealed bag with bubble wrapped around the x7510 box.
I suggest you buy if from the uk if you live in Malaysia since the Americans like to mod their phones for them to work in their country plus don't you use 240 voltage?

Here is a list of OFFICIAL HTC RETAILERS in the UK (select UK): http://www.htc.com/europe/where_to_buy.aspx
As you can see CLOVE Technology is in there (that's where I bought mine delivered to the US via DHL)
DEVICEWIRE is in there too.
Stay away from EXPANSYS and ONTHEGOSOLUTIONS. Why? Because they are OVER PRICED. Their service is just as good as any of the listed from above. Nothing different.
Thanks for all suggestion. Now I am more keen to get it from clove.

I bought from Inkino.
However, in the end I did not buy X7510 but instead choose to purchase used Dopod U1000 from local owner at very good price I think. Its only £275 but with almost new condition with remaining 4 month warranty from HTC. I could not see any scratch whatsoever The previous owner seem like not using it at all. It comes with 2GB memory card, VGA out cable & car holder as well. I am a very happy of to own this unit.
