Buy Your Touch Diamond Here!! I did!

I bought my Touch Diamond at Negri Electronics. Those guys have been my "go-to" guys for a while now. They stand behind their product and they are VERY FAST!!
negrielectronics.com
Expansys sent a phone to me 3 day, when I paid for overnight (which has happened before). Negri ships the day you put the order in if its early enough. I'm impressed with their product selection and very impressed with their service. The price may sometime be a few dollars more, but well worth it.
If you buy online, buy it here, at least you don't have to worry about getting the run around when you need service.

i can get it for $720 AU...... direct from manufacturer.

and this??

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.

Two scammers in one day

So I'm attempting to buy an iPad to use it to show clients photos, instead of printing portfolios. So I turn to good ol' craigslist. Got 2 scam replies. I see they are getting more clever. lol.
#1:
Hey, sorry for the delayed response, but someone already bought the iPad and
picked it up. You might want to try and buy one where I bought mine at. It's
an auction site kind of like ebay that has quite a few iPads.
I am usually able to pick them up there between $130 and $160, I think it's so
cheap because the site is newer and there aren't many bidders yet. Anyways,
I'd recommend you shop there if your still in need of an iPad. The site is
called BIDSAROO.com. I just checked and it looks like they have one
ending soon and the bid is at $53 so far.
When I signed up they gave me this coupon to give to friends, but I haven't used
it yet. Your more than welcome to use it, but I think it expires tomorrow. It's
good for placing some free bids on any auction. The coupon is: free3042
Hope this helps you!
-Chad
P.S. Here is a little secret I'll pass on to you. Right now there is a glitch/hack
on the site that will allow you to block other people from bidding on the item.
When you place a bid, hold down the enter key until the auction counts down to 0.
This should allow you to win any auction instantly. But I'm not sure how long it
last, I'm sure the site is working on fixing the glitch/hack.

Hi, I am getting back to you regarding the 64GB 3G iPad from Craigslist
My name is Arianna and I am now in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom.
I am selling the ipad for $450 USD. I have attached some pics with it to this email.
The ipad is still available and I hope you are still interested. The ipad was bought brand new from Apple a few weeks ago.
About the ipad I can say it's in perfect shape, as I used it only for a few weeks. Included in the $450 price is everything that came with the ipad.
The ipad is here with me.
I tried to be as thorough as I could with the presentation so you can have all the info if you decide to go ahead and buy it.
Please get back to me and let me know if you like the ipad if you're really interested in buying it.
Thanks,
Arianna

"Included in the $450 price is everything that came with the ipad"
Your $450 gets you *only* what came with the iPad, not the iPad itself.
"the ipad is here with me"
They're just hoping you'll skim over that since it doesn't really make any sense, not until you get the first part anyway...
Deception is fraud, so even though it doesn't say you're actually buying an iPad what they're doing is against the law.

Well also I am in nyc so how would she sell it to me if she's in England?

gotta disagree on that, many user on xda for example put USD and EURO even tho they are in the UK. i do that on Ebay also.

Not being able to do it in person is generally a red flag for me that it's a scam. I couldn't care less if the message comes from the Queen of England.

Genuine Nexus S Batteries?

Hey everyone, just looking for some extra batteries for my Nexus S, and I am struggling to find some Samsung Genuine ones. I have read about the Behold/Moment batteries I think, but I would prefer official ones first, however you may prove me wrong
Something along the lines of this (desktop charger for the Galaxy S) would also be nice to have, so I don't have to put it in the phone to charge. Would the above mentioned batteries work in such a charger?
I would also prefer and Aussie power plug, but I have plenty of universal adaptors lying around so it's no biggie
I'm just wary about getting dud batteries, having only had bad experiences with cheap ones before.
Cheers!

Ok I found this on the US Samsung site, http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/AB653850CABSTD, lists the Nexus S as compatible and also the Moment, so I may as well just get a couple of those Moment batteries off Amazon from thePruneDanish, as it seems to be the best for having real batteries, not copies.
I will still try and find more on the dock though.

Ok, on the dock front, I may as well get this one: http://www.cellphoneshop.net/m850desktop.html
But just one question about it. On my Nexus, if I charge via certain USB cables it will come up as USB connected and charge slower (I know why, that's not the point), so if I used a USB cable to power this charger, to charge the spare battery, would it also be slower? Or is it a hardware thing only of the Nexus.
Sorry for starting a new thread before finding out everything Just this last question! Then mods may delete it if they choose.

This one comes with the correct plug:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300454233992
Works great, but when the charger is standing upright, the battery tends to pop out.
I bought a battery from the danish prude, and it is both genuine and 1500mAh. He seems to be out of stock, though.

Thanks, I had found that one, may get it as it works out a couple of dollars cheaper than the previous one (shipping mainly ).
As for thePruneDanish, did you get them to ship internationally? I just saw on the Amazon product page that is 'Shipping: Currently, item can be shipped only within the U.S.' can't be shipped outside of the US. Is this because it is a battery? And they can't be shipped easily or something? Also what is postage like to Australia (I have never been able to understand the shipping price table on Amazon :S )
Thanks so much for that though!

Yeah, expensive shipping. But it's genuine and 1500mAh ...
I have no idea why it says 900mAh. Probably because it's compatible with the Samsung M900 Moment.

Thanks for that again! It may be worthwhile to get those, knowing they are the real thing. I was looking at these ones but the seller hasn't sold any of them so I'm hesitant about it. I wonder if thePruneDanish will consolidate, so like the US$12 shipping will cover both? That would be great if they did!

Sorry to question, but how can you tell if it is 1500mAh? Does it say on the battery itself, or does it have similar life to your original battery?

Ok well after some further investigating I can't seem to find any of the batteries on thePruneDanish's eBay shop, so I went local again. I found another listing for the exact same batteries by the same guy as I mentioned before, just this time they only had model numbers of the batteries (which is how I found it). Same price and all, however they have sold 12, which makes me comfortable.
Link is here.
I'll just bite the bullet and get 2 of them I think hopefully because they are all the same seller I can get them at the same time!

One of the questions is about the mAh, they replied 1500mAh so I guess it's half valid there. I understand it's a bit iffy, so I asked them if it's genuine and I'll see what happens there. That other seller still would be good if I could find some!
Edit: Can't find any mention of OEM anywhere on the page, dunno why I thought it was all good before. I hate it when the pictures aren't like ones taken by the seller! Off to look again I guess

It should work just fine, it just means that it's definitely not genuine. And that the mAh rating could be a bit optimistic.

The original AB653850CA battery was 1440mAh, before the Nexus S came along. It's a difference of 4%. Possibly measurable, but not noticeable.

I'd prefer to stick to genuine batteries personally, maybe it's nothing but when ever I have used generic ones in the past they suck, even worse than the near dead battery they had replaced. This time it's just for extra power however.

4% difference doesn't bother me in the slightest, it would be nice to have more but I really don't care So basically you have to trust the seller when they say it's 1500 or 1440 etc.
If anyone can find a non-amazon site to buy the 1500mAh version from thePruneDanish? eBay preferred, as is PayPal but whatever goes

The original code behind the battery is:
AB653850CA 1500 mAh
and seems like it's only available from Samsung USA

not even the UK samsung website shows it

AllGamer, if the price is what worries you, how much would you expect to pay for a genuine battery, I'm not sure how long the Behold has been out but surely it is long enough for retailers to get them other than Samsung?

considering Samsung websites sells it for $30ish, anything less than $20 i'll be questioning
as the originals usually have some sort of margin to how low they can go
it might very well be real ones, but we wont know until we peel on of those stickers off, and or do a Meter test on the battery
so who wants to be a guinea pig?

Yeah, what worries me is that maybe they are real batteries (genuine I mean) but have some fault, ie water damage. Because I just had to change my SIM then and I saw the water indicator on the side, where the pictures dont show...
I wonder what the margin is? Anyone here work in retail and can give us an estimate?
I would be a guinea pig but they don't ship to me
