I want to sell my HTC Wildfire
Bought Saturday 09 October 2010 - five days ago
Paid 299€ | 264£
Resell Price 240€ | 211,50 £
+ Shipping Price 10€ | 8,8 £
The Phone is new so don't bother ask if it's damaged, used 2 days.
If interested contact me with private messages
Payment method accepted : Paypal
The item will be shipped the day after the receivement of the payment.

You'll have trouble selling at that price. They cost £200 new.
If I had paid 200£ for it I would sell it for less, but I actually paid it 299€ so, it's barely impossible for me to sell it for less.
The Phone is without contract, so every SIM can be used, I don't actually pretend to sell it, but I try, if someone is interested I'm here ^^
Dave
Why did you buy it?
It seemed to be the phone for me.
But actually does not meet my needs.
It's a bit too slow and sluggish for what I need.
A better android version can resolve the speed issues (if the 2.2 really brings a 2x to 5x faster performance) but I don't actually trust HTC for this update, and "stock marketing e-mail replies" are never something good.
To say it briefly, I tried it, i does not meet my needs. And it seems it will never meet them

Haha, so your saying that if you buy it overpriced then you can take more for it then the acual new price? That pure idiocy, it like if you were to buy a
HTC desire for 600€ and then selling it for 550€ just because you paid a overprice for it then the original 400€.
well all you UK tesco fans, you can now get it for £179.99 with £20 free topup.
makes me a little sick in my mouth when i think of what i paid for it a few weeks back lol

Not in every country it cost the same ^^
Actually here the retail price is 299 - 270 € (Without brand or contract) . So I think someone can be interested.
Same thing for the desire, here it is 499 - 479.
Maybe it's more convenient in your country, but here it's not a crazy price ^^
Dave.
I brought the phone back to the store, willing to permute and buy an HTC Legend.
I discovered that the unit was defective, and it was much slower than the others in the store, what doesn't worked , I have no idea.
The only thing I know is that now I have a new HTC Wildfire (Brown and not White as before, shame) and work much better, no 3D obviously, but the sense now is smooth and the touchscreen reply faster.
No Reason to sell this now xD
Admins can close the topic.

Hello guys Im new to this Touch HD forum and I want one BAD...I found one Cheap from a company in China & I would like to know has anybody else bought one from China? Its unlocked and they said it will work with T-Mobile.
The best price I have heard on Touch HD is around $720 + Shipping to the US from resellers in UK. Nothing from China... if I were you, I will not throw away my money from a seller in a country where it is not released yet, and has a cheaper price.
Again, just my thought... Its your money and your deal.
I live in China. Tell me the name of the company and give a link and I'll check it out. My first impression though is no way. THe touch hd is not officially released here yet so the only way to legally get them is to have them shipped from Hong Kong and they are expensive ($800 US), so I doubt that some company in China would be getting them from abroad and then shipping them to you cheaper than someone like handtec who is getting them directly from HTC in Europe....
1. Like everything in life, if it's too good to be true, it usually is. If this chinese company is indeed reputable, then go ahead. But be warned with the risks involved in importing goods, you have to be prepared to assume all risks and liabilities (warranty, shipping problems, fraud, etc). From my view as of Dec 8, 2008, HTC Touch HD is still pre-order only in many shops and sells for about $800 to $900 due to high demand.
2. Unlocked GSM phones will work with any GSM carriers, that's the nature of being 'unlocked'. However, the downside is that they're usually not subsidized by the GSM carrier and thus more expensive. A trade off between flexibility and cost. For me, the flexibility of being able to use any GSM card when I travel abroad outweighs the cost.

define cheap? before shipping, mine was approximately $670.00 US from Clove Technology. even at today's exchange rate (around 1.50 dollars for each GBP), $700 from a reputable reseller is the best price you'll get. i've seen US retailers selling for as much as $840 and that doesn't include shipping!
Ok update ...Ive now Got a contact in the USA that I can get the phones from Cheap, and when I say cheap I mean under 400.00 shipped to your door.Im registered to get them wholesale...this is where Ebayers probably get them from to re-sell for a big profit .Im gonna be joining you guys soon I hope
Is the price going to be reduced soon or shall I proceed with my online purchase??

Well...
That depends, if you don´t care about the $ g for it!
But if you want to pay less wait 1 month and sure you´ll find it a better $
Good luck,
same
i agree, if u really want this phone buy it or if u have alot of patients wait for little while (same like me )
Actually I don't believe it will get a LOT cheaper. Maybe some 50 Euro but not more. Mtel sells it in Bulgaria to new or Club customers (more than 6 months on the network) for roughly 560 Euro incl. VAT. Knowing their business practices and also knowing that they don't have the habit to subsidize phones I guess that they got it from HTC at around 500 Euro.
before experia1 was more expensive, but now it seem its price drop down leaving HD the expensive one.
//None Redacted
I'll have to spit $650 for it, with 1 year contract extension...
i got mine direct from o2 as a contract replacement handset, the price from them was £370 but you have to have had a contract with them for over 12 months

Hey,
I am hoping to get my hands on a SIM free HD2 fairly soon, and i was just wondering where people have got theirs from and how much it cost them?
Best i've found so far is £440 for unlocked and sim free.
There is always ebay i guess but i'm not hugely trusting in it tbh XD
Thanks

So theoficialprice from xpansys ws on december 524 euros I am sure you can find many of them on ebay for much less.....!
The resonis simpel there are many lemons HD2 out there.
If I was you, before buying, read closely all the threads that are talking about bugs.
And best of all just wait few more weeks to see what would be the future new devise out there.
Realy HTC hd2 is not a reliable devise

Is this from Handtec.co.uk? Careful, that price is for RETURNED devices. Brand new models are currently £450 - still a bargain though.

and plus VAT. £464.13
When you buy it from expansys.com, you'll get it for 469,99 but with a 30 pounds voucher for other expansys products. Maybe you want to purchase some accessoires anyway.
You can also get a B-Stock HD2 (whatever that means) for 450.
B-Stock = used/opened product.
I bought my HD2 from handtec.co.uk. The was price was around 460.
If you pay by card and the delivery address is different from the billing address you will need to provide proof of your billing address.

Every single HD2 comes with a brand-new resealing sticker in the box for some insane reason....so I would never trust a private sale as being 'sealed'. I sold my 4th one genuinely sealed, never been opened. I'd be willing to bet a lot of these 'sealed' ones don't have the spare seal in the box!
Here I was looking for one for myself, and found this one pretty cheap - sadly will not work in my region, so thought will share -
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HTC-Sensati...0670613262?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item2eb8e68f0e
Bid start pretty low for ones looking for unlocked contract free sensation.
Again, I don't know the seller - so no responsibilities from me or anyone at XDA staff. But seller has feedback, should be legit.
someone is going to cry about ebay links, not that bad of a price though
I assume this had a buy it now price before? At the moment its an auction at 330 with 2 days left...
auction listing as offer are bogus, you never know when the price will go up the sky.
Yes, did have a buy it now of 300.
only stupid ****s bid over 300$ ****ing hate ebay noobs
Here is a good deal I found on ebay India, if you missed the firesale or don't have anyone in US to ship it to you or carry it for you - and don't trust yourself to handle to shipping and customs yourself - you can buy it here - a little expensive - but cheap for a tab of such hardware, and now that Android is there on it
Worth the 350$ - as it includes shipping and customs
I don't know the seller, but have bought stuff from them - pretty good - but takes 3 weeks to get stuff - so if u want one :
http://www.ebay.in/itm/HP-TouchPad-...5?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item3f0ebcdf75
But again, I or anyone at XDA staff does not take any responsibility for this
That doesn't seem like a very good deal to me? Those were selling for $149 during the firesale. So you're saying that $200 for shipping it to India is a good price?

Lol. Read this wrong. Thought you meant $200 for an HP Touchpad and he is right it is too much. You can get one in the US for $200.
Why go for a TP for 350$? Get a Asus TF instead or GTab if you want VFM.

I sold my 32GB TP for $280 for which i paid a lot of customs and shipping haha. I don't think its a good deal on ebay. Also the seller cart2...... is just plain bogus, they order your goods after you finish your order on ebay
I agree with archat once can get a better Device for those 350 which is TF, galaxy tab, even gtab is better.
yes cart to >>>>> is total crap...
Read what I said, it's only a good price for those people who don't want to ship it to India themselves or don;t have anyone to bring it from US.
Hardware is same as any other tab and that costs 600-700$, so 350$ is not bad compared.
Your opinion, you can have it
But, 149$ was NOT a realistic price, better to get over that - even HP has.
@Crush : How much customs you paid for it ? You got it for 280$+customs+shipping ? Can you explain
And i don't know about the seller at all - bought twice items were small and reached in time - were exactly the same price as US price.
Just to clear this up for anyone who isn't quite grasping what this thread is about, madnish30 is providing a link to eBay India. If you don't live in India, or need a Touchpad shipped to India, then why are you even posting in this thread?
$150 is NOT a reasonable price for ANY Touchpad. GTF over it. Consider it a one time sale price. US resales of the Touchpad seem to have settled at $200 and $250 for the 16GB and 32GB models respectively.
Considering this and the cost of shipping to India from the US, plus the time it takes to get through customs, $350 isn't a bad price for this tablet. The Touchpad has very good hardware, and is worth the $350 even in the US. It was never worth the full $650 retail price that it originally was, but that's another story.
So, in short, if you don't have any reason to need a Touchpad delivered to India, then don't post in this thread. It really is that simple.
Exactly, well summed up CFB
The touchpad is worth 350$ or more itself, for the hardware _ functionality and the OS too - I agree it's no Galaxy tab, but hey that Galaxy tab comes for 700$ not cheap ! And this is for 350$ for almost the same hardware.
Besides, inclding customs and shipping the seller is earn around 30$ a shipment which is not bad !
250$ is the average cost in US today, so 350$ by no means is bad for India that too including customs !
149$ was a throwaway price, but seriously one need to get over it, it's long gone - and those lucky people who saved a 100$ good for them !
Again, I shared a deal - but nobody is compeling you to buy, you can keep looking maybe one day you find one for 50$ or maybe not
