x7501 box size

Hi peeps!
Can somebody please post here what the exact dimension and weight of x7501 box? I am planning to have it shipped through Fedex to here in the Philippines. I also bought a Plantronics Pulsar 260 so if somebody knows it's exact dimension/weight too, I would really very much appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Jetherson,
I'm planning to also bring in an HTC Advantage (price of one here is isanely high Php 65K)and the seller uses FedEx for shipping. Did some calls and found out that you have to get a permit from NTC to import or a certificate to import which cost around Php 240.00 before you can have any Mobile Phone or PPC sent to the country or else FedEx will not release the Phone to you. You also have to pay a certain brokerage fee and 12% VAT which FedEx will first pay customs on your behalf. PPC or Mobile Phones do not require payment of Import Taxes or Duties except for the 12% VAT.

yes yetdy, i paid like $150 last january for my dell latitude d820 laptop through fedex.
i think i will just have to ask a friend who's coming home after a month.
sigh.

hello, are 7500 and 7501 different?how about the drive issues?is it already fix?

The only thing different now is the secondary camera. OS version is now the same but I don't know if they have the same bundled software. Regarding the MD issue, there are some people who do experience problems with it but then again, I do not think it is the majority of those who own the Athena. Just like any products, there are factory defects however stringent the QC process is. However, based on some posts/threads the MD is a power hog that is why they are looking for mini sdhc's that can sort of replace the dependence on the MD. Just like any memory device, an off sync soft reset may erase or corrupt your data.
I'm about to buy one (X7500 not the x7501 because of price and secondary camera). Unfortunately it's not available in the Philippines. Getting mine from Dynamism because of the warranty and upgrade the site provides. Did some research just to be sure. Check this out: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=752&id2=687
Personally, I do not mind the power consumption because my atom is always plugged on to my laptop whenever I'm in the office and to the AC power supply whenever I'm asleep. Doing the same to my new HTC Advantage wouldn't be a problem. The only problem that I have with regards to the battery is whenever I travel. But that's when I need to buy a replacement batter right? Anyway, I hope this helps.

yetdy,
from that url, it says that the cpu's are the same. i've read somewhere that 7500 and 7501 cpu's are different. i'll post the reference here when i find it. also, 7500 is a lot more expensive than the 7501.
i'm going to use DHL instead of Fedex for shipping.

If you're from Quezon City and don't mind using priority mail, you can ask that your HTC advantage be shipped through priority mail instead. I know the customs people in the post office here(I'm what they term as their frequent customer.). They are nice and would let single items pass even if they are supposed to tax USD$50 above items. You don't even need to give them gifts or you know what. As long as the package is for personal use, they will go easy on you.
BTW, I got my HTC Advantage for USD 600 + 58 for Freight. Not as expensive as the X7501. Brand new from a very reputable online store. It also has a 1 year warranty to boot. Anyway, that's the reason I finally bought one. Prices here are ridiculously high. Anyway, I got the specs for everyone to see...

wow that deal looks very good.
anyway, i'm in subic area and there a big chance that i might still be able to ask a friend of mine to have it handcarried to the philippines, that way i wont have to pay for anything
my x7501 was bought for $850
thanks for the suggestion though, and i'll let you guy know how the 'shipping' goes.
ciao!

My x7500 will arrive via FedEx by the 10th of the month as per tracking number. Got to pay 4,000+ though for the taxes. (Bummer!) At least its still a lot cheaper than buying it here. Can't wait until it arrives!

Wanna Sell or Trade your x7501?

I am looking to buy an x7501...I have a Tilt currently (with a bunch of extras, 4gb card, 2gb, bluetooth headset H700, tomtom, coreplayer...), I noticed on Ebay I could get about 400-500 for all that, and they are selling x7501's for that...well, anyone interested, or just whant to sell, let me know...oh, by the way, you can look on ebay at the going rates, I saw some douchbage offering his for 750 used, come on, really?
Anyhow, let me know....

I have no idea what you are talking about I've looked on ebay and these are not going for anywhere near what you are claiming post some links to ones that are actually selling for this much if you're gonna make a crazy claim like this.

Maybe he meant £400 - £500?

I bought my X7501 used on ebay for $550 including shipping, a couple of months ago. I did see one going for about $300-400 but it was broken and being sold as is for parts.

You got a bargain! well done.

Thanks confucious. I was really lucky that day, as i just knew somebody was gonna snipe my bid at the last second. But to my surprise, nobody did. Unfortunately the average price is up around $650-$750 these days.

I stand corrected...slightly
I only did a quick search, not a thourough analysis of the long term trend of the value of the x7501 over the past month...However, now that the 7510 is released, there value is sure to drop...either way, 400-500 is an understatement....

If you can get one for that price then go ahead! Let us know what you do pay.
Good luck.

Got my x7501 for about $670.00 shipped (just over a month ago) in pristine condition (box was a bit dinged up but the unit is great. Most of the units then were about $800.00 + on ebay.
Cheers

Selling a Hermes - Advise only (not a pitch)

Hi guys,
Just wondering if I can get some advise.
I just bought a Tytn II and am now going to sell my T-Mobile Vario II. I was wondering what sort of price I should be looking for one now-a-days.
It's got the original box, but no warranty. I can put my hands-free kit in from my Tytn II as I really don't need it.
I've got the original charger and a USB sync/charge cable are easy to add.
I can also throw in my Tytn II's case. I don't need that either.
It's in near pristine condition. I got it in about April after sending my first one back to T-Mobile for repair. They replaced it instead. However, on the corner is a small, but very obvious scuff which I plan on showing when selling it.
Just wondering if anyone can advise me on what sort of price you would expect to pay for this phone if you was buying it so I can get a rough idea of what to expect.
I'll be putting the Official T-Mobile Windows Mobile 6 on the device and it is unlocked.

i reckon £130, but saying that the official wm6 and unlocked aswell wouldcrank it up if u put it on ebay. dont seel for less than 130 though.

Thanks for your reply.
That kind of price is actually quite a bit above what I was thinking. I was looking at more about £70. Especially considering the scuff on the corner is quite visible with the device being grey and red.
It's not damage which will effect the device in any way shape or form, but it is clearly visible. That's it's only downside.

I'd look at the prices on ebay... On Aussie ebay most Hermes sell for around $200Aud. This is my observation for about 2 months... Watch how they sell on ebay for a week then decide how to go about this.
Most people tend to bid in the last few hours and I've seen a Jasjam go from $55 to almost $300Aud in the course of 20 mins.
I don't know how it is on UK ebay but my advice is watch and learn.
Cheers...

Good advice.
I'd say as well (having sold a couple of phones on ebay) decent descriptions and pictures add more than you would expect to the price, so spend a bit of time writing some decent text and describing the functions in detail.
May as well watch http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200242138578 - it's a similarly replaced Vario II so should give you an idea of what it will go for, once it completes.
Good luck!

i only paid a £100 for mine 12 months ago and that was virtually new, a midwife had got it on contract and then found it far too complicated to use. £130+ to me is way off the mark. I have tried to buy a few on ebay and they generally sell from £70-£100 depending on the condition , accessories included etc.
PM me with a price as a friend wants one , if you dont want to use ebay. Or if you do pm me the link
EDIT:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200242138578 Someone is taking the piss on the bidding with that one its at a £155 with two days to go, i think someone is pulling his leg.
average price for one if these is about a £100
http://www.gumtree.com/london/69/26751569.html <---£100
http://www.gumtree.com/london/69/26751569.html <---£110
http://www.gumtree.com/london/25/25809225.html <---£100
http://www.gumtree.com/london/23/26155423.html <---£75

Thanks for the suggestions,
The item linked by Marsbar is going for a really high price.
To be honest, I think I'll put it on there for £70 with full pictures of it up and working then let it run for 7 days.
I just sold a Samsung Tocco on there (free upgrade from Orange) for £200 on a buy it now. That was done within hours. I think the Tytn could fetch quite a bit more than I anticipated.

Where to buy housing for TMOUS HD2?

eBay has them for the T8585 and I've seen at least one seller claim that they won't be compatible with the American version. Any suggestions?
http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-HTC-HD2-T85...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27b1b48dc9
Thanks ahead of time.

Don't know where you can get the US version but that is definitely the EU version. The easiest way to tell IMO is to look at the audio connection point, The EU has a cylindrical bulge as it is closer to the back edge. The US version lacks this bulge because they moved this connection point towards the front of the phone. GL on finding it. Post it here if you find a source as others may be looking.

http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-HD2-T-Mobil...d=ViewItem&pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item20b12683dc
You can take this one apart.

www.cnn.cn has them. Here is the link:
http://cnn.cn/shop/tmobile-housing-p-8762.html
The only problem is they are $88! They also have the digitizer/lcd's for a whopping $179.00
Dealt with them in the past for Kaiser stuff - out of Hong Kong but shipping was pretty fast and their products are real HTC OEM.

I'd rather just pay the extra 6 bucks a month for insurance...

wow thats insane. $90 for a stupid housing that probably costs $10 to produce. how much would you pay for that broken screen one? maybe $150? $200?

When I posted that link for the HD2 with the broken screen, it was $.99. I wouldn't pay more then $50.00 for it but I am notoriously cheap.

I found one that might be a T-Mobile US version. It doesn't have the butt looking thing sticking out on the back. For $18, it doesn't look too expensive either.

16GB T-Mobile Dell Venue Pro for sale!

I have a newly received 16GB Dell Venue Pro (T-Mobile) for sale. I just received it this afternoon. It is factory refurbished from Dell. They swapped out my bricked DVP for this one. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thanks!
Shawn

I see this is your second post. I'm new here myself, but I have a feeling that posting a thread that you're selling a DVP is probably frowned upon.
There was a thread posted on here earlier, entitled "your unwanted DVP," with someone in India I believe looking to buy one. but I'm guessing he's looking for the AT&T/international version because of T-Mobile's incompatible 3G band.
My advice -- post it on ebay, get paid through paypal, ship it with delivery confirmation. That way you're covered if the buyer files a non-receipt complaint. Also, don't list it as an auction. Find out the high end of what a perfect condition one has sold for recently and set that as its buy-it-now price. Make sure to get the unlock code via [email protected] (Send the request with your IMEI and Service Tag.) A newish unlocked T-Mobile DVP should go for about $160.
Or you can post on craigslist, but at that point you're just hoping someone near you wants one and they don't know how to use ebay.
Good luck!

ebay listing looks good! Now that I see it I feel like you could raise the price another $10 or so, since it has all the accessories as well. The last one I sold was a 18-month-old 16GB T-Mobile DVP with significant wear, and that went for over $160, but that was also just before the non-upgradable-to-WP8 announcement. That may be affecting prices.

Thanks! To be honest, I really like the DVP and WM7.5 OS. I never had any problems with the phone whatsoever. It's just sad that alot of people soured on it after the initial batch came out. If T-Mobile didn't give me an Amaze 4G for free, I would still be using the DVP.

TechoSquid
The DVP I sent back to Dell was T-Mobile and the one they sent me is a unlocked generic carrier version. Think I can sell it for a little more??

Out of curiosity, if "It has never been turned on or used," how do you know dell updated it to Tango build 8773? P.s. you accidentally said build 8337 in your listing.
Buy-it-now listings almost always go for more than an auction. Why would a potential customer bother bidding on an auction? It's because they're trying to get a lower price than similar listings available for with buy-it-now. Just for future reference.
