I have yet to see someone claim to have bought e-note from ebay? I see prices as low as $670 dollars (US) including shipping yet no one has reported to have bought one from them. what is the risk involved that people are still paying $740 from other places and no one seems to be taking advantage of new g-notes from ebay at cheaper prices?
I think its fear + ignorance which stops more people getting them from ebay. These things are made pretty close to Hong Kong, so its not suprising how cheap they are buying them from there through ebay. ebay used to be fairly shady too, and I think a lot of people still hold the fear of splashing $700 into a site which they may feel unsure about. However, as many of us know these days, ebay + paypal combined is an insanely safe shopping source. Not only is your sale fully ensured, but the amount of turnover most of these stores do, and the ability to access other shopper's comments does make it a really valuable source.
I'll be getting my note from ebay sometime next week (when the pay comes through), but have previously bought my SGS 1, and asus transformer from there, with NO problems, extremely quick shipping, and hundreds of dollars saved. I always recomend it
thanks for the vote of confidence. I am also thinking about getting my g-note next week through ebay.
Just read through the sellers past feedback. You should quickly see if the seller is reliable. Also read carefully through the description to see if it is new/used/damaged or if the title is wrong and they they are selling a 600$ notebook with a photo of a galaxy on it rather than a phone.
I got mine from eBay.
I bought mine from Ebay I paid 720 for it including shipping that was free. That's 2 Weeks ago prices were much higher.
It was a reputable seller and didn't have any issue the phone is running great
I went through 3 SGN's so far.. One from Amazon.de, One from Ebay.de and one from my Country which was the most expensive one but was worth the local warranty reassurance since I'm keeping this one. Received it today.
The second one from Ebay was a German model, no problems, sold it like I did with the first one from Amazon after I played around abit with it.
Anyway ALWAYS read the FEEDBACK! Even if it's a TOP Rated it means NOTHING! It might be a hacked account or a bad TopRated. Better safe than sorry.
Example: Someone is selling some SGN's in a very attractive price. Check the feedback if another person bought and received a Note from the Seller already. If the listing just came up then check it's feedback for some expensive stuff and not 2-3euros worth of items.
If the Seller has low feedback(<30-50) but it's 100% positive and every buyer is happy with him, then sent him a message first and see. He might be just a regular guy selling a Note.
Yes Ebay and Paypal did help me a couple times and they were very helpful, but Scammers will always be around.
Got mine on ebay for $760 about 3 weeks ago when they first came out. It arrived in a few days without any problem. It turn out to be a Polish model with a with a Polish provider branding.
Just rooted & loaded a custom ROM & now all OK.
I love this phone. Absolutely awesome screen.
Got mine from a Hong Kong ebayer with no problem.

I just wanted to post about handtec trying to rip off people looking to buy a nexus 7 from them.
I know most people in the UK would just buy from else where but handtec are one of the few sellers who ship internationally.
I have just moved to hong kong and previously bought a HTC one x from them without VAT which was quite a good deal, and I thought I would try get the nexus 7 from them as well as their service previously was pretty good.
However they list the price of the 16gb version at £238.80 (£199 + VAT) I then talked to them via online chat to verify if this was just a typo as it should be £199 including VAT and hence about £165 without vat. I was told by their rep that this was the best price available, I told them no, the RRP is £199 including VAT and that is what all the other retailers are selling them for, the rep replied that yes that is correct, so I asked them why they are selling for more than the RRP to which I just got ignored, so i asked if they are going to sell at this higher price and again got no response, I waited another 10 mins on the chat window and then when i had no reply i closed it.
this happened a week ago and I see they still have not updated the price. I think that this is their way to get some more money from international buyers who can't nexus 7 elsewhere as its not released and I'm pretty disappointed that they would try to do this and not sell at the RRP.
Supply and demand...
Retailers have the right to sell products at whatever price they choose.
Consumers have the right to choose who they buy from.
If you don't like the price, buy from someone else. They might not have the best price/deal, but it is a bit of a stretch to call them a ripoff.
A ripoff is more like when they give you something other than what they said they were going to give you.

Have you tried their price match?
Clove sells it for even worse price - £220 for 16GB excluding VAT.
We’re still a week away from the Samsung Galaxy S5′s Australian launch, and the price-cutting battle between telcos, online stores and retailers is already happening. If you’re willing to wait a week or two for your new phone to be shipped over from Hong Kong, you can find a great discounted deal.
Millennius.com has the black 16GB SM-G900 Galaxy S5 for $779, as well as white — that’s the cheapest price we’ve seen online so far for an outright handset. Kogan has the same model for $849 in all four colour variants, as well as a $999 32GB capacity, but all stock has apparently already been snapped up. MobiCity wants $899 for the 16GB, but unlike Kogan is still taking orders. These phones will almost certainly be international units coming from Hong Kong, where prices are lowest for grey importers to source their inventory.
eBay prices are depressingly high; the cheapest you’ll find a 16GB model is $958 with free postage, and $1079 for 32GB. If you want to buy a discounted new Galaxy S5, you might like to have a look at Melbourne-based Millennius.
mobicity went from 899 to 849 then sold out. now its back at 899 lol.
never buying from mobicity again after my experience with my xperia z
EDIT: oh, this isnt a retailer, but there are S5s going for 699USD on ebay and it has free shipping to Australia. can't link here since im at school
Thanks for that, I will be buying one on the weekend from them after I get paid from work.

Hahah what the....
I dont think the ebay ones are legit when you have these companies that are selling them cheap compared to the big brick retailers.
I dont think you can go lower then them at this stage, there almost approaching the S4 price if ebay is legit which I dont think so

Eh I'll link it here later and I'll have a look at the seller reputation. But there is always PayPal so at least there is some sense of security on your side
EDIT: eBay link here. Seller looks pretty legit. http://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=191122704936
EDIT: Looks like it is the 3g version too and doesn't have free shipping :/ could have sworn it did when i checked earlier today

Yes here exynos is official version. The price is bit surprising as note 3 was launched here for $830. I was expecting the $850 for s5.

yeah, here in australia the price of S5 is 849 to 899, S4 launched for 749 here i believe. :/
I pre-ordered mine from AT&T the other day. The no contract price is $650.
I found the Octa Core exynos cheap on Ebay ($650ish), but I want the snapdragon one.
I just went on millenius.com and it turns out they only do bank transfer and something else for payment.
no paypal option seems super shady to me..
I went to the local electronics store in Herzliya and they told me 2,600.00 shekel ($745.844) which is actually less than I thought it would be. I thought it would be more like 4000 haha.
Just wondering if anyone has bought the S10 from eBay and who did you buy from?
Also which version did you buy?
I’ve never bought anything expensive as this from eBay and the discounted prices seem to scare me in regards legitimatcy.

It should concern you. I would suggest a lot of research of the seller, paying with a means that gives you some protection such as PayPal or credit card, the sellers return policy, and more than 1 persons good experience with the seller.
Just ask yourself this:
Is it worth buying the phone at a sketchy price that could possibly end up being a clone or scam one week before legitimate versions are available in stores?

I've purchased a number of Galaxy devices from a Houston based seller, best pricing, fast delivery and great customer service.

Yep, well established Seller! I think they sold over 2,000 Note 9's....
That isn't a huge discounted price so I would feel better about that seller than one that's cutting a lot of dollars off the price. That's only 60 or 70 dollars off what Amazon sells it for with an included SD card.

I purchased and already received my Galaxy S10e, SM-G970F/DS from the same seller mentioned. Included an SD card was likely a Latin American model or something because it booted up in Spanish. Otherwise, it's been fantastic and I've been using it since yesterday. Located in the US and running smoothly on Mint Mobile. Bought for just shy of $700
My concern is that these devices haven't even been released in the US yet and this seller is selling them for $100 less than the MSRP. Also, the fact they are supposedly an international model, yet are coming with a US power adapter? Lastly, this appears to be the phones everythingapplepro used on YouTube for his drop test and it broke quite easily, faster than most expected with cornings gorilla glass 6. Not saying these phones are not legitimate, but I have a bit of reservation on them being consistent with Samsung's released product due to the above concerns. If they are legitimate, fantastic deal at that rate.

I think this identical phone with a bundled SD card is only 60 or 70 bucks more on Amazon. Of course there won't be a warranty on the international version purchased in the US.

Yeah, I see that on Amazon. However, it is from a 3rd party seller which is consistent with these eBay phones being discussed, not officially sold by Amazon. I am keeping my official Samsung preorder to be sure. I'm a bit curious to see other drop/durability tests and other YouTube reviews once the official retail units ship out next week.
Also, something to note, the 128gb SD cards are also included with these eBay models we are discussing. Comes with an SD card in the box, clear case (which was rumored early on in the leaks) and a US wall charger.

Ahh. I’m in Europe so ordering from America would become very expensive with import charges. Unfortunately. The Snapdragon variant looks so promising!!

Don't fall for the superficial benchmarks around, we still don't know why people avoid posting battery tests involving the SnapD, also it's permanently bootloader-locked and some updates never get to it.
Anyway don't buy from eBay, Samsung doesn't manage those sales, you get no pre-order bonus, your warranty might be forged and it definitely doesn't look legitimate when some unknown third-party seller puts their hands on pre released devices, selling them for about 10% less than the release price, delivering faster than Samsung itself.
The bonus buds alone are worth more than any eBay deal could save you, and if anything happens with an official pre-order you have legal power, stick to Samsung, Amazon or other officially recognised shops that respect the pre-order plans.
It's legit twisted420 bought his from that seller

I have dealt with 'Never-MSRP' for the majority of my recent purchases; Samsung or not. I highly recommend them.
See my 'Device History':
S7 Edge (G935FD)
Note 8 256GB (N950N)
Mi A1 (MDG2)
Note 8 (N950FD)
Mi A2 (1M1804D2SG)
Note 9 (N960FD)
ALL Never-MSRP.
They have willingly accepted any and all returns with full refunds OR exchanges (provided the returns met their guidelines; which all my returns did).
I've had nothing but positive experience with them as well... If I buy on eBay I will buy from them before considering another seller

I bought the Galaxy s6 and my current Huawei mate 20 pro from them. They are legit and awesome sellers of phones!!! My mate 20 pro was perfect, factory sealed and all. Very happy with the seller and more importantly my lovely phone which replaced the note 9 lol
I've been trying to purchase this phone for a while now. Operators in my country are increasing the price 1.2x fold and that's why i started looking for additional sellers.
I found that Alibaba.com is selling P30 pros at a much cheaper price. Does anyone know if these are legit?
