Where to get the 4-1 Cable other than Expansys

I live in Singapore and would like to buy the 4-1 cable for my new Dopod U1000. I looked at the Expansys page and discovered that it costs UKP13.x and the international shipment costs UKP22.x ... I really don't want to pay UKP22.x shipment for something that costs less... I am assuming HTC makes this cable as well in Taiwan. Can it be sourced there? I happen to be flying to Taipei on Monday for business. Thanks for your help.

MobilePlanet in US also carries it but its even worse :
Cable costs US$ 23.95
Shipping costs US$ 79.95
Please an Asian source???

maybe you can ask people in US or UK to buy it for you then post it to you

Only international shipping option on these sites are 3-4 day DHL etc and hence the price. Given all this hardware is made somewhere in Asia I can't believe there is no where I can source this item...
wu5262, with your close links to HTC, can you confirm whether this cable is made by them in Taiwan or OEM'med somewhere out of mainland China etc?
Thanks & Best Regards

these cables are made by a Taiwanese Company, but i think the warehouse is in China

Thanks for the insight. Are they available in any shop in Taipei?

International shipping time

I ordered for international shipping (to UK) on Black Friday. Not surprisingly it's still showing "Your order will be shipped soon". We don't know yet if a rush of orders last weekend is going to affect things, but what's the 'normal' experience? How quickly from placing an international order are folk finding it goes from 'will be shipping' to 'shipped/tracking'?

Was that via DHL or free shipping? I ordered with free shipping.

It was free shipping with DHL!

Oh! I didn't think that was an option?! You mean you ordered free shipping and they used DHL anyway, internationally?

Hi,
I purchased mine from Gearbest,com. Ordered on Monday and delivered on Tuesday to my surprise.

I also bought mine from Gearbest. Mine took 7 days and cost £108. the box was open and a load of sh*te had been installed. At least it came rooted so could flash twrp recovery with flashify.

I purchased 3 from gearbest 2 came rooted 1 didn't, they didn't come with too much crap but still had to remove some stuff.

I bought from AliExpress, seller Hong Kong Goldway. Cheap and fast, less than a week, delivery to Europe.

Got teana version from aliexpress, with multi language. 180 usd with express shipping

Ordered from gearbest 9 days ago, despatched after 5. Could still be another 3 weeks getting here (UK). £107 Inc 3 for insurance.

Phone got delivered today, 13 days after order.

Bought mine from: http://www.to2c.com/lenovo-k3-note-2g-ram-16g-rom.html
I bought it at about $175.98 USD

Bought it via amazon.de, via il-astore.eu or something like that, they had a good price vs. all others 'positive feedback' etc.
It was about 180 Euros, with shipping+VAT.
The only lack I see about it is - and I'm having this funny conversation from someone from the store is that I asked their return policy
cuz they sent me the yellow lemon version, I wanted simple white. Would prefer black but what can you do.
Cheers!
Is there a topic: Why did you buy a Lenovo K3 Note? I think it should exist if it doesn't.
Cheers&allthebest,
N.

Got mine from a local store, it was 185euro(few months ago) + tempered glass and earbuds.
They rooted it for me and agree to update it when the least rooms comes out, and gave me 2 years warranty.

Did it come with Ice Cream Sandwich? No pun attended...

Got mine from Gearbest (EUR warehouse). The package had been opened and the Lenovo seal torn. There were fingerprints on it and it came with adware/malware. The usual. Gearbest also failed to comply to my request of including the proper power adapter for my country, but that's minor. Cost 151€ (which would have been 145€, if my Paypal conversion rate had been set up correctly), plus 10€ shipping to my target country. Shipped using a proxy delivery service, similar to Borderlinx. Great value for price so far. Especially with the Nexus 8 ROM.

I bought mine at Tinydeal.com. They offer priority shipping within 3-5 days for a couple of bucks more. My phone arrived via free standard shipping after 2 weeks for € 134. The package was delivered by PostNL, they declared it to be a MP3-player with a value of € 35 (I didn't ask them to do that) so I had not to pay any additional taxes.
Very pleasant online shopping experience, I recommend Tinydeal (except from the tax fraud).
I asked them for a German version of Android (nevertheless it came in Spanish) and a European power plug, which they added. Software was VibeUI 2.5, very slow, not rooted with unremovable spyware and annoying ads. I installed Nexus ROM. Speed increased from Antutu 22.000 to 46.000. I'm in love with that phone!

Bought mine from vickmall for 140 euros.
Trusted site, i have already buy ~11 phones and only one had issues with capacitive buttons backlight

Bought 2 phones, both via gearbest..one is now having the limonchello rom and the other one is on the nexus rom.
Price was around 150 - 160 USD I believe, shipping to The Netherlands.
Both came with chinese crapp on it, 1 case also had the seal broken.

I prefer a 5 inch screen, but there aren't many choices, so I'm very tempted at this price.

Where to buy internationally?

I love this phone and I would love to move away from my Redmi Note 4 MTK for this one. But I live in Morocco and I don't know from where to buy this phone internationally. I found it on Aliexpress but the price is high and shipping only with DHL (which is bad in my country as the package always ends up in customs when we ship with DHL and we end up paying unfair prices for customs).
Any website sells this phone for a fair price and has standard shipping? (free shipping if possible)
Thanks guys

Sorry, no idea then...

Im from morocco too and i don't think the phone will be available locally but if your are not in a hurry you can pre-order the phone from bangood, or you can buy directly from the official huawei tmall store through an agent(like cssbuy or superbuy ...), it's cheap but it's also a Chinese version and you have to pay the agent some extra bucks for shipping and service.

purchase asus rog 2 phone

where can i purchase online the phone china version no problem.

Yeah, couldn't find it on aliexpress.

Giztop.com has it listed

You will need to wait 3 weeks or 1 month or even more. The stock is limited they are currently locally selling the phones in batches every 4-7days and every time it's sold out.

Is Giztop even legit? I feel the list thing as in stock but ship it 1 month later. Also it's at an inflated cost right now being $100 more, I would wait a month

I've bought a phone from them before and purchased this from them. I'll see when it ships and arrives.

It looks like Alibaba is selling them. https://www.alibaba.com/trade/search?fsb=y&IndexArea=product_en&CatId=&SearchText=asus+rog+phone+2

trusted website.I bought my phone from that website

Liaow is a trusted seller, I can confirm.
they're usual more expensive, but very thrustworthy and good communication..
I've bought my last 3 phones from that shop, including my current ROG 2.

Hi,
I received it at my door 4 days after them getting the first stock (they use DHL Express). Usually full processing, shipping and getting through customs takes max 5 days.
I did of course get to pay customs tax, around 28 EUR (+-30 USD), I live in Barcelona.
It arrived in perfect condition and included a simple charging adapter.

ok thanks for your info, i live in Czech Republic so it will be similar

Liaow is $200 more than original price. it is quiet expensive without including shipment cost and customs.

giztop probably buys from JD and marks it up by $100

Even if you live overseas, you can purchase this mobile phone at the Chinese version of jingdong.com official store.

liaow wants $1150 shipped for the RoG Phone 2
I hope prices go down eventually. I am content with my OP7 Pro but would like something with better battery and no curved edges.
Something tells me it won't go down, blah.

is it reliable? the only chinese I buy from is Aliexpress, and sometimes the vendors are mean/tricky. i found this one:
https://item.jd.com/100006808184.html
But i m relying on google translate to understand the page... I m a bit worried about risk of not being able to communicate with the seller or so if anything happens... and there is no shipping cost?
Also i was reading the comments on the phone on JD and soo many complaints about defects in screens. it seems they are suffering from quality check ?
which makes me worried as Asus won't support tencent out of China...
And I tried to create an account and it requests to use phone number. I added my phone number but not receiving sms with the code. I guess they have the international code to my country wrong.
Thank you
