Price change

Hello all,
I was about to buy the product, however, expansys-usa.com increased their pricing by 70 dollars for the TD2 . I remember It used to be 539.99 now its 609.99. Does anyone know why....
Thanks

If I may add another question:
Do you think that the price of the device is going to get cheaper when other big phones come later this year? Like Palm pre and the new iphone?

No unfortunately.
The original touch pro hasn't dropped much in price in the UK, it's still around 500 pounds from Clove. The TD2 is cheaper!

I was just about to buy the phone from Expansys UK! yesterdays price was £384 and now todays its gone up to £410....now whats all that about?!?

Supply & Demand, maybe?

where to buy HTC p3400 Battery

my battery try soonly after making single call, i decide to buy new battery for my gene, please suggest where to buy branded battery?, what abt the cost of battery? and which brand is best for gene?

Try on ebay.

If you are from India, try R T Outsourcing, they are authorized service centre of HTC in India and also sell batteries and enhancements. Just google for your nearest service centre.
Always buy Genuine Batteries (HTC)

But you'll find better deals on ebay. I purchased a stereo bluetooth clip headset for $20 (900 rs) with shipping and a pack of 3 stylus for $3.5 (about 150 rs with shipping). I donno about the headset, but 150 rs in India is cost of a single stylus You will just have to bear some shipping time, my items were shipped within 6 days, from Honkong. And do buy from dealers with lots of positive feedback.

why are samsung accessories so expensive?

I went onto the samsung website (canadian version) and checked some of the prices for note2 accessories and I was blown away how expensive they are. You'd think samsung would realize if they priced their accessories at a reasonable more people would purchase them.
for example $39.99 for their Note2 TPU cover. $49 for their MHL adapter. Before ebay or online shopping I could see companies charging these outrages prices but with ebay and the like who would buy some of this stuff from samsung when you can get less expensive versions?

Stuff up here is definitely more expensive than the states.
I know its not much of a discount but shopandroid gets sales every now and then.

And if u dont mind waiting then amazon.com with amazon prime shipping is another alternative. Just be wary of international shipping and duties cost.

Impulse buying when the phone is originally bought. Wouldn't take much of a salesman to sell a 50 dollar case to protect a 600 investment. Or all the neat add ons "to get the most" out of your brand new phone.

This. I'm such a sucker for it.
My thought process: "Well, what's the difference between spending $200 or $300 on a phone when I'm paying thousands for the service? Might as well get the best one. And why did I buy a phone with removable battery and storage if I'm not going to buy a spare battery and spare battery charger, and a 64 gig microSD? Wow... I've got a lot invested in this thing. Better buy a case for every day use, and a tank of a case for when I go out. What's this... an app that I will use every day of my life for only $5? That's one drink out at the bars, I can swing that. An app for $0.99??? Might as well be free. Oh, and can't forget the car dock and charger, that's an essential."
I have a problem

You forgot to mention screen protector and also new pair of jeans with bigger pockets and pouches to protect the case thats on your phone...and if thats not enough might aswell get a crib for it by the bed side. And just to be sure and on the safe side avoid having kids for aslong as possible just incase that requires you to divert your attention from your note 2....

You are right to tell people to be wary of the price, Especially in the case Custom Duties i.e. vat to added [collected at this end by PO], plus the minimal £8 Post Office Charge.

Samsung is expensive because they guarantee the products will fit and work 100% with the phone plus every manufacturer always charges more for their respective products. Example: htc charged around $40 for their mhl adapter and $50 or more for their tv dock. It's just a matter of finding items cheaper and hoping that if you buy generic it won't damage your phone and fits correctly. There are plenty of reputable companies that make accessories you can count on. Like otterbox,seidio,spigen, and many others.

Lol what you said about "what's the difference between spending $200 or $300 on a phone when I'm paying thousands for the service" is so true for me. I have to always buy the best phones out. Unless the phone was alooooooot cheaper, as in free, I would never choose a S2/N1 over S3/N2.

I hear you. Yet I can't seem to stop shopping for an "even better case". I think I will draw a line at Sweet armor bumper though. Just a frame, not even total back protection and 70 USD?

This is my problem.. I get bored, go on ebay and type in Galaxy Note 2 cases, and go, "Oh, this is only 7bucks. Might as well right?". My logic fails considering it adds up to be quite a bit lol.

So you think a $50 MHL cable is fine when it probably cost them 50 cents (maybe a dollar) to make in china. I'm all for a company making money/profit but that's kind of ridiculous.

For cases, I always hit up ebay. For the same price as a retail case, you could buy a dozen and try them all out!
For cables, chargers and batteries, however, I've been very hesitant to get them "cheap" because of the risk of damaging my device. After reading an article about various chargers and usb cables which showed that the third party/counterfeit brands have no consistency to them, I've stayed with trusted oem brands.

Wait until you see the "Australia" price, then you will know what truly outrage is.

Why are genuine apple accessories?
Why do dealerships sell spark plugs for 5 times the price of an auto store?
It's genuine oem, and they are all overpriced.

That's the lowest you can find it for. I bought 2 pieces around 6-7 months ago for 2000.
Also, buy it only if you really listen to music over bluetooth. As you may have experienced earlier, the wires are very thin and mine are about to go dead anytime soon. I regret buying two pieces together.

I bought zebronics in-ear phones for the time being .They are so cheap only 190/- inr and are surprisingly too good .Actually far better then Samsung's ear phones (which they give with mobile ).
I will wait for some time and buy sbh-20

Many case for Honor 7 ? Yes of course...

On Aliexpress.com with Honor 7 Case in keyword you will find many
For me, I ordered this one : http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6881366716.html for 7$

found the same on amazon for 11,99€.
Thanks for the cheaper price!

For all, Use Aliexpress.com before buy on ebay or amazon , it's same providers and prices are very low.
ebay and amazone are only resellers. ( If one day, you make your shop on ebay, I want paybacks LOL )
I have ordered often, on Aliexpress.com, and never disappointed.
Your credit card will be charged, only after shipping.
You can cancel your order during your order is in pending. ( Nice, when the dealer lie about avaibility I used this, only one time )
In fact, is Aliexpress the cashier, and he pay the provider only when the product is sent.

Do you think these cases will have any issues with swiping commands, on the official one it looks like the case is raised around the fingers sensor?
