Although quality is subpar. I got a 2pack for like $4 + $2 shipping or something really low. It was a US based reseller too. It's quite possible they were so cheap and sold in 2packs because these could be models that failed quality control. That would be my guess. So I'd definitely stay away from the 2 pack auctions.
The issues I had:
1) One has the audio connector side not fully sealed (their seems to be a wrinkled paper around the metal which is holding away the rubber)
2) The other one wouldn't even connect, they overflowed the USB/HTC side with rubber, so I had to use a razor and needle to pick it out. It works alright now, a little iffy though - so I use that one as a my spare.
All in all, can't complain about the price. The first one mentioned works great.

Saw this one ebay. Wondering does it fit?
http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-SONY-ERICSS...66:2|39:1|72:1205|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50
Says it's an original, ought to fit. -.-
Don't buy from this guy, he keeps raising his prices. I had originally bought one of these using "buy now" for i think $8 or so and i got an email saying they didnt have any left and I got a refund. Two minutes later, the same faceplate was set to a buy now price of $17. Now its $30, same seller...

He probably kept realizing that be are willing to pay more. His score is 9000 and he is a US seller (not hong kong) so I am pretty sure it's a safe buy.
Don't be naive. Wanna bet this person sits in Hong Kong... as the items he's selling??? Look where the Item Location is: HONG KONG!!!

Shoot I didn't see the hong kong part.
Yup, and that is what this guy is hoping for ... all the time
Agreed, seems pretty peculiar.

That is just stupid to say. First of all ebay is the best thing since the supermarket. If you can't find it in a store near you it can most of the times be found on ebay.
Secondly many sellers from Hong Kong is far more trustworthy than sellers in germany, UK or USA. I know, I have bought from them all.

100% agreed! Just open your bull eyes as big as you can on whatever you gonna buy.
Thanks for the link!
Does anyone know which is the installation procedure of this plate? Any guide or something like that?
They now have full OEM housing @ cnn for a whopping $79usd. Damn, it is so expensive. I had bought housing there in the past for W950i and the quality was decent. Not really sure if this housing will fix the crack issues. Can anyone confirm?

Hi everyone...
It seems that no one really posts about good deals on accessories on here, so I thought I would pass on my story... I ordered a docking cradle and spare batteries from bargaincell.com .... They have the docking station on sale for $5.. it is a charging/syncing/spare battery charger in one... They also have non-OEM batteries for $8... In my household we have in total 3 touch pro variants so we picked up cradles and battieres all around... If your total purchase is over $25, you get free shipping with coupon code FREESHIP25 .....
Even if you only have one Touch Pro/Fuze.... I am sure you could spend $25 if you pick up a few batteries, screen protectors, or other accessories... Over all I would give the company a 4 out of 5.. I got the products in just over a week w/ the free shipping... But they are very slow at responding to emails...I tested the cradle with a US Cellular, Sprint, and AT&T varients and all worked fine... same with the batteries....
Below are links to the exact products I bought...
Cradle - http://www.bargaincell.com/index.ph...o&cPath=2830_2890_6125_6487&products_id=13586
battieries - http://www.bargaincell.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2830_2890_6125_23280
cool thanks!

No problem.. I bought them and am happy with the products so far.. I havne;t had it long so I can't comment on the battery too much, but so far it works fine.. and even if you just get the cradle.... for just $5 and it comes with the USB plug as well as a wall plug that you can use as a travel charger by itself..... Well worth it...
Thanks for the tip!

That would be me ... one Fuze. Thanks for the tip. I picked up a battery, screen protectors and the charger/docking station ... all at a great price! I checked elsewhere and the battery itself would have ran me $30 or $40.

Actually, there is a whole forum for accessories: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=439&sort=dateline
what sites do guys in the UK use for theie LEO accessories? Im after a nice case and car kit and maybe a blue tooth set.
Official one is a good place to start...

The official one is run by eXpansys
I have found that mobilefun.co.uk or pdahut are both very good, fast and reliable...
i am wondering if i should order from mobilefun.co.uk tomorrow as their prices seem fairly good
Yeah I would... they are very fast in their delivery and the items have all been top notch...
Agree about Mobile Fun. These guys are OK too, very competitive:

I'd have some of the batteries if they came back into stock
are those things in the sle on prepaymania for real?
I have ordered a lot of things from eXpansys with no problems at all, with each of my orders i always seem to get £10 + off in vouchers so it works out a lot cheaper.
http://www.mobilefun.com/37623-samsung-galaxy-note-2-car-mount-cradle-charger-with-handsfree.htm
Its a power mount like iBolt
It has a built in speaker on the cigarette lighter
Comes with a charger
Activates car mode
Custom fit for note 2, not generic
Fits with or without a thin case
Small foot print
Only $33
I just ordered the same one from Mugen. I hope automatic car mode works as the MobileFun site says.
Please post back. Deciding between this and the iBolt.
This one is cheaper and offers the same benefits as the iBolt, but is a custom built cradle and not a generic clamp.
This is where I ordered it from: http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2-car-mount-cradle-with-handsfree.html because it was a dollar or so cheaper after liking them on Facebook.
I didn't notice until afterwards that it will ship from overseas somewhere. They said it will take 4-5 weeks to get here. I don't know if MobileFun ships from the US or not, but I'm not happy about the wait I'll have to endure.

I think mobilefun is a uk company.
Biggest difference I'd say is lack of usb audio

I can confirm this. I have bought several items from them over the years without a problem.
I just bought this thing off Ebay and didn't do my homework because some people have bought other wireless chargers that were cheap like this one. I'm going to go to Best Buy and will pick up the original one to compare to the one that is coming. The one off ebay is $39.99 while the one's on BB is $69.99. Sounds too good to be true. I already contacted the seller and told them that I WILL KNOW if it's fake. I'll post my findings here so no one gets screwed like probably I did. I'm going to return it (almost certain).
Sounds too good to be true, so.....
Keep us posted.

I saw a video on YouTube where someone waswas explaining tdifferences between a fake wireless charger and an original wireless charger. There were somesome subtle differences and you could only tell by having the original and fake one side by side. I think that someone mentioned that the fake one would only do a "wireless charging", while the original one would say "fast charging", when you would put the phone (S7 edge) on the charger. Also there are power bricks that are fake too. Honestly, I would only buy these charges from BB and maybe B&H. Not even AMZN, because there have been fake ones in there too. I'll pick up the original one probablyprobably today from BB. The one from Ebay is coming tomorrow, but I'm not holding my breath.
OK, so I just picked up the original wireless charger pad for $75 at the local BB. Now I have to wait for the one coming from eBay. I also bought a car charger that is supposed to be from Samsung too, but BB doesn't carry that one. I'm also weary about the car charger. It sucks to have to deal with this, but it is what it is.
Update: just tested the car charger bought from Ebay (hopefully original Samsung charger). My phone does say "fast charging", so I'm thinking that is a good sign.
I've just recently taken delivery of four of these (black) sold and shipped by Amazon.com LLC for $36.34 a piece.
They are quite genuine. Not sure why anyone would want to risk eBay when those are available.

Some of the stuff I buy from eBay ends up coming from Amazon. But anyways, after carefully looking at the one that came from BB and the one that came from Ebay, the Ebay one seems original, but it almost looks used (the BB one looks more glossy, if that makes sense). Also the chargers look slightly different. The Ebay one has a V in the back, while the BB one has a VI. Also, the packaging is different too, so I'll probably be returning both and buying one from AMZN like it was mentioned above. Even at AMZN you have to be careful because some sellers do slip fake chargers in there too. So bottom line, don't get this from Ebay.

Precisely why I referenced Amazon.com LLC as the seller. Maybe others have had an experience dissimilar to mine, but I've never received a fake product from them - and even if it were to happen, has anyone ever had them deny a legitimate return?
With Red Weasel Sales (TM) you take your chances. Maybe you'll win, maybe you'll get burned.
If you find out it's real, and there's more, please post up links. Nobody wants to pay full price lol.
