Really? I'm sure I could find some with a starting bid of a dollar. It's only the cheapest if you actually pay that amount for it

I am sure its not the cheapest, and since there is no buy it now button starting it off at 100 wont make a difference. Closer to the end of the auction the price will probably shoot quite a bit.

you should probably check the sellers rep.
1000 for a phone?
Honestly, that probably isn't too far off non-contract pricing but screw that!!!

Pretty pricey and I would check their feedback rating first before purchasing it. If they have 0 ratings or ask you to pay without using ebay I would def stay away
Is it a presale? alot of people do that and wont ship it to you till the phone is launched.

Its not presale. one phone is 500 usd and 2 was min to order. The seler has 100 % positive feedback
Search it on ebay galaxy s4
looks pretty legit aside the photos are dummy phone looking or stock photos.
If you fail to see that this is fake then you deserve to have your money taken from you, period!
I did email the seller.
and here's his response to me.
Hi,
Quick info about my items:
- 100% factory unlocked, 100% genuine Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 in original sealed boxes. I have both colors: White and Black.
- I have EU, UK and US version of the phone with 64GB. You can use them in any country with any sim card.
- The phones are bought directly from factory and also this is the reason why the prices are low. They all have 1 year international warranty.
- I can send them with DHL, FedEx, UPS, Royal Mail or your preferred shipping company. The items are sent from my warehouse in Glasgow.
- Free Customs. That is right... Free Customs. I gathered a lot of experience sending items internationally and Customs are not a problem anymore.
- As you can see in my description: Pickup is not available at this time as i do not hold stock on hand for security and reliability reasons.
- I will provide IMEI and custom photos ONLY after i have payment confirmation from eBay.
Minimum order is 2 (no exceptions). My stock is greater than 20 and also you will get great discounts for bulk orders. How many phones do you want ?
Thanks

Definitely a scam. Possible hijacked eBay account. Seller asks to pay through bank transfer not PayPal. Run! Or kiss your money goodbye.

Don't do it.
The price of this device will be the same when it's released in your store nearby, and you will have a 100% warranty it works or replacement or repairs. You won't get warranty if bought from eBay for sure and they are all PRE ORDER ( PRE SALE ), dispatch will be from 30th April. All written in the description of the product page on eBay.
My advice; wait.
Even if it was legit, I wouldn't order anything that would be shipped out of another country other than my own. Even if the item were socks.
I've bought about a dozen phones through Ebay the last 2 years, sticking will decently rated sellers, 97% and up, and have never had a problem. (Other than the 97% guy shipping too slow; now I go 99%.)
This includes a new OneX, a GT-I9300 and an Xperia P, all from Hong Kong.
Rumor 2 days old about sales already in China, and I've seen several Ebay sales and auctions go through for GT-I9500, for allegedly immediately available stock. I posted in this price thread about the $612 - $840 or so price range, the lower for 2 at $1225: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39194227#post39194227 Buy it now guy seems to be in the US.
I can't vouch for any of the vendors. As far as I know, as long as you stick with EBay/Paypal, purchase should be protected. If it's a scam, then it appears to me probably at least a dozen or 2 people have been scammed and it will become well known.
I'm waiting to see if anyone posts their purchase (or scam) here. Perhaps they're getting early production units with more faults than average. Under Features Radio for one listing though is TBD, LOL. Maybe the app and other software features aren't ready for prime-time yet.
Recently I've been a frustrated Samsung UK underling, whom was unable to get any Note 10.1(2014) pricing or availability info internally.
Hence, I've been following threads in this forum in the hope of some info.
However, through a stroke of good fortune I met the Tablet Buyer of a Leading UK High Street Retailer...
The Note 10.1 (2014) 16GB WIFI only device will be priced at £479
The device will be available in approximately 2 weeks.
The buyer didn't know the price of the LTE model, which would suggest that the LTE model may not be available within a similar time frame.
Also the Tab3 LTE models will be available (Sim-Free) at the end of October priced with £100- £120 premium over the WIFI only models.
Hope this info eases a few minds!!!
Many thanks for all the great posts
all the best...
A definite pass from me then

Damn so we're looking at around £530 for 32 gb. too dear for me
WTF
Why are we always being ripped off here in the UK? Gotta buy them in the US then.
Tesco Hudl perhaps.
.
I don't care what components and specs are inside this thing. It should not be priced more than an ipad if it is still made of cheap plastic and looks like it was designed by a graduate.
Should be around £350.
Im not buying this out of principle despite being a millionaire and someone who just lost many many times over this amount in a poker game last night.
The Note 8 pricing was a complete joke but this isn't too far behind.
I don't understand why it is much more expensive than the US. $550 converted in £ with 20% extra for VAT makes £400 not £479.

I haven't yet, read a few reviews that have put me off. If it's not released here by the 14th, I'm going to take the risk.
I have received a confirmation from a major retailer here in Greece that it will be available next week. They told me that they have plenty of stock already.

Did you ask about the lte version and the prices ? btw which retailer ?
Well here in Sweden it is expected to be £550 for the wifi-only 16gb model. You do the math...
Wow, why is it so much more for other nations compared to the US?
I'm thinking of buying a brand new LG G2 32GB from China for £205 (£250 if it gets Tax), I was wondering as long as the model is D802 it will work in the UK fine is that correct?
Also has anyone here purchased the phone from China and have you had any issues be it with LTE/4G. From what I understand as long as its the D802 International version it will work fine in the UK.

I bought two G2s of 32 Gb from a site that was bringing products from China (valuebasket.com) Everything works great. Even the 4G. If the seller is serious go for it. D802 is working everywhere there's SIM and not CDMA possible.
I think I'm going to purchase this as soon as the Nexus 6 gets revealed, I can't see the Nexus 6 matching this in specs, battery and most importantly cost.
I've been reading these forums and I've decided when I get one I will install the G3 ROM and then the LG G2 will be perrect.

Ah forget it, if I buy a used G2 it will cost more than a new G2 from China.
Also a used G2 on ebay from a UK seller will probs have no warrenty either or have very little left on it. So really thinking about it, the warrenty aspect is irrelevent for me.

Yeah typical British prices ... the Goverment here shaft the people from every direction. You work hard to earn money (no worries the goverment will tax that), you going on holiday (no worries the goverment will tax that), your buying a LG G2 (no worries the goverment will tax that lol), you've inheritted money (no worries the goverment will tax that), you buying petrol (no worries the goverment will tax that - I think you get the picture hahaha.
Anyways back on topic - Cheapest 2nd hand I have seen sold for was for about £230 no warrenty and was in good but not perfect condition. Better off just buying Brand new from China and potentially £20 cheaper or worse case £20 expensiver. Worth it if ya ask me haha.

Have a look on DigitalRev. They provide their own 1yr warranty and although I haven't needed to use it yet, the reviews elsewhere suggest they are pretty good when it comes to issues.
I just took delivery of a white 32gb model for £285 from them and am pleased with it so far. No import taxes or anything were applied...

Do you really think Samsung will throw in a free wireless charging pad? I guess it's a possibility but they've not been know to thrown in free stuff.
I'm in two minds whether to pre order or not. I'd prefer to check out full reviews beforehand but that might be to my detriment if Samsung do thrown in a bonus with pre orders.

If you order from Amazon DE for example, then if you have issues you need to return to Amazon DE. Amazon UK won't accept returns for any reason which is a bit of a pain.

Absolutely, although good luck dealing with Samsung warranty Amazon gives you 1 year 'Amazon' warranty no questions asked.. We all know how good their customer support is..
As for worldwide warranty, I've had issues with it before (albeit Sony).. Bought a Sony laptop from Dubai, had a fault, Sony in Cyprus wouldn't accept it for replacement/fixing.

Have to say I had an exceptional experience with samsung when my note 2 developed a fault with the flash memory. Send them the phone and it was back to me, fixed within a few days. I think the phone was about 18 months old at that stage.

Yes, very good experience for me as well with Amazon UK. My Galaxy S3 stopped working suddenly DAYS before the end of the 1-year warranty (switched off by itself, couldn't switch it back on even after swapping the battery). Despite the fact that it was rooted and running a custom ROM, they changed it with no question asked for a new one that I received the day after (even before I sent the old one back), They also asked me if I wanted a full refund instead, which retrospectively I should have done, since the price had dropped and I could get a new one for cheaper

That's good to hear. The only reason I am a bit wary of Samsung warranty is when you trip Knox.. I highly doubt Amazon would care about that; Sammy on the other hand is a different story. I talked to a representative of theirs a few days back about the whole Knox tripping warranty thing and oh boy they didn't like it.. I even showed him the legislation and talked about a scenario where I take Samsung to a small claims court, etc and he insisted Samsung will not fulfill warranty for whatever reason if Knox has been tripped.
I had a run in recently with Samsung mobile support and only after 4 months, and threatening legal action, did I get a replacement phone. My previous note 4 had issues with unstable WiFi but they wouldn't accept this was happening because they couldn't replicate the problem. I was specifically asked about whether I had modified it in any way (as in software) before they arranged for a repair. I'm not sure whether the repair centres that the phones are sent to actually check the Knox counter. In my opinion, they didn't do much other than flash the firmware again which I had already done. Bad experience with Samsung mobile support. Had a problem ages ago with first galaxy s1 with o2 and they replaced it after second time it was sent in for repair worth a new s2.

I definately made the right decision to wait til later down in the year for the s6 because there is no way imo the S6 is worth that much.
I was expecting more like £550-570 for 32GB, £600-620 64GB and £670-700 for 128GB.
