Moderator Edit: This is a developers site not a SHOP for members to sell their wares!! It is a breach of forum rules to sell multiple devices on this site for commercial gain = SPAM. A blind eye MAY be turned to an individual selling their second hand PDA when they upgrade to a new one, but your post was a blatantly commercial venture. SPAM is a bannable offence.

Interested

HTC - buying off eBay

Anyone had any experience of buying a phone off eBay? I bought mine second hand for £331 the other day and it was as advertised. I did a hard reset so I could start again and it works really well. Maybe I was just lucky!!!!

I got it for 280L via ebay.. new as described (unwanted upgrade).. had to unlock it and viola works perfectly ( for 3 months now )

Yep I bought an HD off eBay and it was as described. In fact the seller had mentioned two small scratches which I still haven't managed to find!! The phone had also already been flashed with one of Dutty's ROMS so was ready to go!

havent bought an hd off ebay but i am buying a lot of stuff from there (included a couple of phones), i must say that in the last 2-3 years the quality of the items and the precision of the sellers is getting more and more professional. I would definately recommend a search on ebay for a phone or whatever else, provided you ACCURATELY read, read, READ the description and everything

A long as you find the seller legitimate and able to read the description clearly, you shouldn't find it hard. Just try contacting the seller always before deciding to bid. If the price is listed ridiculously low, make sure you insist him why it is priced low. Most importantly, ask him twice if it's the original HTC phone or the chinese clones spread over AliBaba!

I've bought the following PDA phones off eBay
XDA IIs (2006)
XDA Exec (2006)
XDA Orbit (2007)
XDA Orbit 2 (2008)
HTC Diamond (2008)
HTC HD (2009)
I've had no problems at all, but only because I was careful with checking out the seller first. I use a website called www.goofbay.com to check what the seller has bought, sold and selling and to filter his feedback so I can see all the neutrals and negatives.
Most of the time though you cannot be too careful; the XDA Orbit 2 was a pain when I bought it. The seller didn't respond for about a week, had to keep calling him, he was never in, only spoke to members of his family. Then after a while he sent me an email saying he was a way and will post the phone as soon as possible. A few days later I receive a Xda Orbit One (Artemis), not the newer XDA Orbit Two (Polaris/Touch Cruise) and I had to post it back to him for a refund. But luckily the seller was a decent bloke who really made a mistake so he offered to refund everything, including return postage and postage he paid to send phone to me. He was really apologetic and to be honest he probably would have ended up paying compensation if I asked for it lol (but im not cruel )
In the end he made a bank transfer of the total refund and he kept in touch the whole time via text messaging (lol).
After awhile I bought another XDA Orbit 2 of eBay and when it came (it was fine this time!), I really despised the phone. Slow, buggy, chunky, touchflo sucks, typing is also slow, just in general it was a crappy phone that was expensive. In my opinion - the XDA II, XDA IIs and XDA Exec were very fast. Only after getting the XDA Orbit onwards did I start to notice the higher spec phones getting slower!
Best phone I own is the Touch HD (of course ) but it wasn't as fast as my Diamond.
I am probably going to end up buying the Toshiba TG01 PDA - Windows Mobile and a 1Ghz processor! Best of all a bigger screen than the touch HD lol. Should be interesting when it comes out
Oh and by the way anyone thinking of selling on eBay, if you know someone who has lots of feedback and experience in selling let them do it for you instead of opening a new account; If you sell it yourself with a weak account, you will get less bids, more scammers, and more people who buy legitimately with the intent of doing a chargeback a couple of months after buying the PDA from you!

Been buying and selling phones and other on eBay for years and rarely been let down. Just remember to DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST!!
Always ask lots of questions and check the sellers feedback!!
Goodluck

I bought my HD off ebay and I got a new phone at a resonable price. Just look at description of what you are buying and make sure the seller has a good review.

ebay is the place to get your best price...just verify seller etc.
got my HD off ebay for about $370 from Europe (idividual seller)...

HD2: How to spot a fake? [Closed]

Hi guys,
How would I know if my intended HD2 buy is not a fake?
Where do I need to look for and what?
Serial numbers?
etc.
-Im from Holland (the netherlands)
-Asking price is 350
-Its a private seller, no retailer and the guy is unknown (besides first name and phonenumber)
-It comes in the original box with all the accessories and warranties according to seller
-Guy sounds legit, when communicating
-I want his HD2, Im a HTC user since 2002 (1e was a Artemis: P3300, 2nd and current: Touch Pro with custom ROM)
-I have great knowledge about an HD2 from pictures/videos/youtube, specs, etc. but never held one in person
Therefore I ask owners or similair intended buyers who know specific things on their HTC to look for what makes it a legit HTC. Is it serials, is it logo's? Things that are really hard to copy to make a fake one.
Kind Regards.
Paul

From where you get it ^^?

Is there a specific model you want?
Where are you buying it from?
Can you touch it before you buy it?
How much are you planning to spend?
Have you seen HD2 videos on YouTube?
Do you know what it looks like?
Do you know the seller?
There are lots of questions you should think about before posting and asking us a very vague question.

Its hardly a vague question is it? Hopefully someone a bit more helpful will be able to offer more advice...

If you go to the HTC web site and look for a list of resellers in your country (you haven't said what country you are in) or go to the web site or store of an international mobile phone company I believe that you would only get a genuine phone. If you buy sight unseen from an auction site or a little known consumer electronics site in a country well known for being able to make fake consumer electronics then you are more likely to be sold a fake. How many people here have seen a fake HD2? I've personally never heard of anyone. Serial numbers can be duplicated, in fact they are sometimes shared in public fora for ROM download purposes so are not all quite as unique as they could be.

Only buy from a trusted reseller- Amazon or one listed by HTC. Here, from a senior member-I'd be hesitant of a noob (no offense to noobs).

get a surname, address and landline phone number, then look them up in directory enquiries. Call them at the landline number you get from directory enquiries.
Not perfect, but can be useful in spotting a dodgy seller.

It's bought! I'm a proud owner of a 3 month old legit Leo (HD2).
The guy was more like a tester like everyone here on XDA than some dodgy tracksuit fellow with a loose phone. (the box with all the paperwork was there, plus he had an extra battery and an 8GB MicroSD card, but he lost the earplug...)
So 350 E is I think not a rip off!
(normal = 492E for a new retailers one and 50E for a 2nd battery + 8GB card)
(3 months old, no wear & tear!, is 542 - 350 = 192 E savings)
I reckon good deal!

[Q] What is best place to order it online

Hi
Any one can suggest which is best place to buy online I want to order Desir HD but except expansys.com i cant find which can deliver to Dubai (U.A.E) amazon and have good price but the dont accept international orders. so if any one know which is the best place online to order it
Thanks for help in advance

You could try clove.co.uk that's were I ordered mine from however they are not presently taking orders for the dhd due to poor supply from htc. There are of course other sites but most if not all are out of stock on the dhd.

Good luck mate. No stock whatsoever from online retailers. I ordered from Clove too. Never had any problems with them this time, nor the last 3 phones I got from them.

I would recommend handtec.
www.handtec.co.uk

I would NOT recommend superetrader ... Not very communicative when there are delays, yanked my order and walked into 3 to pick one up
