      Search the web and you're bound to find idiots. Does that mean everyone on the web is an idiot?
      
      Just because a couple of people don't like the phone, or don't like Samsung, or want to have Steve Jobs' babies, doesn't mean it's a bad phone.

I'm assuming these phones are HK models?
- valuebasket on 28/06/2012 - 17:00 ¶
  
  Dear meetspin,
  
  Our models are sourced from around the globe to bring our customers the best prices available, so not all phones will be a HK model. Nonetheless they will all be covered by a comprehensive 12 month in-house warranty.
  
  Should you have any further queries please feel free to pop us another message or call us using our contact details via

How's warranty? 12 months? 24? How is it handled? Return postage?

A question im always asking these days is can you really trust a self advertised bargain ?

  lostn on 28/06/2012 - 00:05 ¶
  
  For smaller guys, no one else is going to advertise for them. It's the only way.
  
  Whether you can trust it depends on what they're claiming.
  
  I'm just not sure where to go if I need warranty and whether I'll be out of pocket when it happens.
  
  It's also looking like a price war on S3s could be stirring.

    Totally, I encourage small retailers to post good deals here. These guys seem reasonably trustworthy from what I can see, and it's the best price atm

Found local stock on eBay for a few $$ cheaper.

Still, a very good price. I am tempted by this very muchly.

I feel rorted in some sense. This was advertised for $669
I ordered and paid only to find out 2-3 hours later another site was selling for $30 cheaper.

I tried emailing them to see if they could reduce the price to match.
No reply.
Tried calling customer service no one picks up the one.

Now they are selling for $637.
I sent an query via the website which i finally got a reply,
but i suspect this to be an automated reply as it only responded 1 or 3 queries.
- ozhunter on 05/07/2012 - 05:36 ¶
  
  Even if they did reply, not many stores will pricematch. Best option would of been to try and cancel your order if they refused a pricematch.
  
  This is a newly released phone, and its price has been dropping every week. My guess is that it will be less than $637 in the next 7 days(though its just a guess)

    I did manage to finally reach someone on the customer service number !!
    Even thought i called everyday for 4 days without a reply some how today someone picked up.
    
    In any sense I will send you a PM of my order details to discuss further.
wongant on 19/07/2012 - 15:16 ¶

Ordered Phone on the 28th of June and received it on 12th July with Toll Global Tracking Number!
As above initially couldn't reach them on the phone but after raising the issue here I have
called back twice to track status of my order and response was prompt and polite.
Also they are very reasonable I just recommend if you want to contact them electronically to
to submit this via the website instead of emailing direct.
Would recommend !
