I just thought I should post a little warning - there are new "i9000" phones on sale on eBay UK - priced at £154+shipping. I bought one of these and it shows all the signs of being a SHW-m110s Korean Anycall Galaxy S faked-up to resemble an i9000 as explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890667
I did not want any other members to be caught-out like this.

Hello, I'm about to do a trip in Vietnam in december, and I just found this website :
http://www.vatgia.com/home/quicksearch.php?keyword=galaxy+tab+10.1
The wifi only version is sold around 9,500,000.00 VND (450$) wich is really cheap for where I live (France).
I wonder if the unit sold in asia can be set in french or english language, and also if there is any internationnal warranty ??? ...
Thx !

They're pretty cheap in the US too. I actually got a deal on mine when it launches (yeah, go figure...). Paid $429 for a brand new 16GB.
To be honest I would not by it personally.
If your tab will get a fault (touch the wood), sending to Vietnam might be quite a problem...

in canada i bought mine with a sim card with a 3 yrs data plan.
the result : Tab 10.1 4G+wifi 16GB 349$ woot!!
In fact I was looking for a replacement of my galaxy tab 7.0 and I thought the new Samsung would be the best choice. I hadn't taken a look at the tablet market from the day I bought my old galaxy tab. It looks that there are plenty of choices with other brands for less cheaper ! The acer iconia 500 and the asus transformer are in my range of prices, so I'm currently deciding for one of them ...
I'd sooner buy local, theres been time I needed to take faulty items back.

My beloved Galaxy S is dead. The Samsung technician said it's the motherboard. I dread the thought of spending more money on a new phone, especially if it only lasts 2 years. However, there is a guy selling supposedly new Galaxy S phones on Yahoo's local Internet auction. I'm tempted because of the price and because I have an extra battery and a really nice case (not to mention I now have spare parts), but I don't know what I should be aware of. How can a 2-year-old phone still be around when the Galaxy S3 is out? Can this be legitimate leftover inventory? Are there known fakes out there? (A search of Ebay shows a lot of Galaxy S phones in Shenzhen, China, but I don't know if they're fake or not.)
What questions should I ask the seller? I want to know if there is an OEM battery and if it comes in an unopened box. What else should I ascertain?
Thanks.
Ask him to type *#1234# in the phone if the box is opened;
if he says like
Pda I9000....
Phone I9000
CSC I9000
the best way to know if it is fake or not.
if the box is not opened you should decide yourself.Want some picture from seller for the box etc..
I didnt see any fakes of galaxy s.But as you know galaxy s has some variants
I9000
I9000T
I9000B
Or korean version which's name is entirely different and so on
i recommend you to choose international one,I9000.Custom rom support is amazing for it!

LOL, I bought mine in January 2012 at Noel Leeming NZ
The guy said that i9000 stocks are still available in Vietnam
I haven't talked to the seller just yet, but I got a rough translation of some of the questions people have been asking him.
First off, he had 50 for sale, 41 are left. He says they were display models. They are not 100% new, but no one has asked him yet how much use they have had. He offers a 7-day exchange if something is wrong, and a 30-day warranty. It is the i9000 as that was all that was available here. He sells a lot of cell phone-related things and has pretty good feedback. He has some HTC Arias and Heros for sale, too, which may lend some legitimacy to his business.
I'll have to register an account to ask him more questions. If the phones have never been turned on, he may be reluctant to type in that code.
MrAndroid12, how much did you pay for yours?
I bought mine in january of this year to ;p, for €150 (idk how many dollars that is).
But it broke recently while flashing, and i'm experienced with flashin, but i could not fix it D:, so i got the sensation, thats a really good phone to, and if you know where to look, you can get it cheap

I've finally decided to sell my S5 900A on swappa and since S6 and Note 5 are more of iFanbois kinda stuff I'm just going to buy brand new Note 4 N910C! It would be the first time I'll purchase international (not US carrier's branded) version! I bought my S2, S3, S4, S5 and GN8 with att or tmo marks on them and all from ebay in new (other), brand new or mint conditions! I was able to register them at sammy.com for warranty w/o any problem tho I never had to fix anything in either of them! I'm kinda worried 'bout Note 4 N910C coz people reported on amazon and here that there's no way to get it registered at sammy website and if something goes wrong you'll have to pay your own buck to fix it even within 1 year of the purchase! I wonder if it's true and how legit sellers from HK are, selling brand new items for under 400$? See that they've answered me to my email: "I wanted to ask about Galaxy Note 4 N910C item. I wonder why it's marked as "New Other"? Is it really authentic Samsung smartphone? Is it made in Korea? Thank you in advance. Very interested in buying"
"Dear alex_soin
The phone is Brand New, unused, without any scratches or defects.
You know we sell to different countries, that means buyers need different type of accessories, such as chargers.
We have to change them into right type, according to buyer's location.
That's why it is "New Other". Hope for your understanding.
We can mark the package as a Gift and declare it at a low value to help avoid the taxes and duties.
Any questions please feel free to contact us.
Have a nice day!
Best wishes! "

Hello, so I'm ready to upgrade my Galaxy 5 and have been looking on ebay for a deal. I see some new phones that ship from China and/or Hong Kong that appear to be a good deal. Brand new, AT&T Galaxy S7 SM-G930A phone for $360. What concerns me is the seller is offering this phone in silver and white, in addition to the more typical black or gold. Was the AT&T Galaxy S7 ever produced in white or silver? I've searched, and so far I can't find this!!! I'm just trying to determine whether the phones are clones!!!!
Thanks in advance for any help provided.
Most likely clones.

Not that I saw. It was black or gold at two stores I visited. Don't do it.
