Looking for a kind Dutch, German or Italian person - 19/11/2005 19:00

Is there anyone in the above countries (probably Holland) that could obtain for me a mobile phone thats not available in the UK and ship it over to me in Scotland? I'll Papal all costs + extra. If you can help please send me a pm, thanks

Edit: Oops I meant Paypal!

I'm looking for a Samsung e730 but in Silver. I'm sure the Netherlands have it.

Infact on further investigation it would appear Holland/Belgium have it.

Hi Rob. Its available here in black too (some importers have it). Nobody seems to have silver though except for some Dutch sites.

Hmmm thats about the same price as it is everywhere else. Would you (or someone who speaks Dutch) mind emailing them to confirm (1) That its available? and (2) that the box would come factory sealed?

I received a reply from www.gsmhuis.nl

Quote:
Wanneer u de Samsung E730 in de zilveren uitvoering onder rembours bestelt,
kunnen wij deze telefoon dezelfde werkdag al versturen mits u de bestelling
voor 12:00 's middags plaatst. De telefoon wordt geleverd in het standaard
verkooppakket zoals deze door Nokia is samengesteld. Mocht u nog verdere
vragen hebben, horen wij het graag.


Summary: Yes, it's in stock and will be sent the same day when ordered before 12.00 o'clock using cod.
It will be delivered in the standard sales package by 'nokia'. (I'm sure that's a typo and should be samsung)

So cost would be:
316 € for the phone
13 € for their p&p and the cod fee
13.50 € for my postage (i think, that's the prize for a package <2kg with standard insurance of €500 and track&trace) http://www.tpgpost.nl/voorthuis/internationaal/pakketten/int_pak_plus_eu/prijs.jsp

Thanks! Did they confirm that the box would come factory sealed by samsung? This bit is important as I've *heard* that some suppliers are opening the boxes to swap out poor batteries etc.

No, they didn't answer the question about the seal. Only said that it would come in the standard package.

Ooh, that was a fast reply from them:

Quote:
Mijn excuus, ik bedoelde inderdaad Samsung. De doos wordt verzegeld
geleverd. Wanneer het zegel mocht ontbreken, kunt u contact opnemen met ons.


Summary:
Yes, she meant samsung and not nokia.
and Yes, the box will be sealed. If the seal is missing i can contact them.
