hi,
looking all over the place and can't seem to find a stylus for my x51v. Anyone know of a place around toronto?
it's difficult to find it around Toronto? do you know any repair service center for pda, they may have what you need.
i visited serveral stores and nothing available........dell really stinks for parts. I don't have like dealing with online purchases either.
I put a query in to Ebay and found HUNDREDS
http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=axim+stylus+
yeah i know ebay has lots of them but like i said i don't want to deal with online purchases, looks like that may be my only way of getting one.
stupid dell.
I bought a stylus for my Navman from E-bay a adaptor for my XDA for the headphone socket from another seller and a Heavy duty battery for my XDA all from E-bay the adaptor came from Hong Kong as did the Battery the stylus came from a seller about ten miles up the road but the 50p postage it wasn't worth driving to get it do not be scared of Ebay and Paypal they are useful tools nowdays
yeap, there is no need to worry about online purchase, it's convenience and safe to make payment via paypal.
Hi all,

Let me start my accessory list(nothing much, only one i own)

Accessories
I have an HTC Touch P3450 Elfin for the past 14 months and recently I purchased some accessories from ebay.in . All you need to do is search for HTC on ebay and you'll get mamny products. I bought the following
(a) My hands free kit had become unresponsive, so I bought a HTC HS U110 -3.5mm AUDIO ADAPTER CABLE WITH EARPHONE for Rs 475.00. Its cool.... its actually a micro USB to 3.5mm Adaptor, so you can use ANY headphone available in the market. You can also attend calls while listening to your music!! (Seller - trendy_bazer)
(b) I got a nice leather case with racheted holster for Rs 790.00. Search for Case Mate Case Holster Combo - Black for HTC Touch on ebay. Its nice. The seeler also sent a Protective Screen Guard with it (which itself costs about Rs 130 on ebay). How nice of him. (Seller - pareshwins)
(c) CAR CHARGER FOR HTC TOUCH for Rs 199.00. Normally you get this kind of stuff for 800 - 1000 in Mumbai. (Seller - trendy_bazer)
(d) Universal Car Mount Holder with photo frame for Rs 190.00. This gets fixed on my car windshiled and can hold the phone (with or without the Case Mate Case) securely. (Seller - trendy_bazer)
But GUYS.... I have badly scratched my screen and I desperately need a new one. Is that thing called a digitizer? Where can I get one? I saw the price of a digitizer somewhere as $10.70.... which means it should be available for about Rs 500? Can it be changed by a non geek like me? Someone was asking for a white casing. Say what.... I think a while casing will also look good. Anyone any idea where to knock doors?
By the way, thnks to this forum, I have Onyx WM6.5 ROM loaded on my (originally WM6.0) phone and lots of cool apps. Thanks xda-developers.
^^gr8 accessory list m8..I am yet to get all these..will be needing a pouch, car charger and mount holder..will right away move to ebay and look for it.
Congrats on ur WM6.5..can u also list the cool apps u hv installed in ur elfin?
^^ Well I have the Onyx 5 Final WM6.5 ROM like you and other apps like Email Scheduler, WorldMate Live, WMM Notes, Auto Call Record, CHome Editor, OneNote Mobile and Powerpoint Mobile, Kevtris2 (Game), S2P MediaPlayer, Bing Search, Currency Convertor, Skype, Facebook, Windows Live and Messenger..... And ah yes, I recently installed the Titanium Shadow Neo skin and added Taskanium, CComm and CMultiClock to it.
One accessory I forgot earlier. I use a Jabra BT125 which I bought for some Rs 1400 from The Mobile Store. Works like a song with my Elfin.
^^most of the appz u hv seems to be utilities..anyways..gud coll.
One more accessory in my list..
Kingston 8GB MicroSDHC Class 4 from eBay
I buy most of my accessories from ebay.com. There are many chinese sellers who sell stuff for cheap. Many ship to india too
I got a Motorala S9 Bluetooth Headset for $30. 8Gb SDHC card for $35, 10 Protective Screen Guard for $1. Bluetooth GPS receiver for $40
is the chinese sellers selling the original goods or fake ones???
Most chinese sell OEM stuff. Also look for their rating and uy from trusted sellers. I have not had a problem with any of my accessories i have brought till now. I have been using it for past 6 months
m8..can u share the stuffs u hv bought frm them and also the sellers name..so we can trust them since u r satisfied..

I have some questions about buying from foreign sellers on ebay. How do you pay them? Is payment directly through credit card or only after transfering funds to your PayPal account? How do you find out the shipping cost to India? Will it not be the case that the shipping cost is sometimes more than the value of the item itself? What about govt imposed import duties, VAT etc? All sellers say on their pages that payment of these taxes is the responsibility of the buyer. So do we pay this or just keep quiet?
I desperately need a digitizer for my Elf. I have royally scratched the original one. And Hong Kong sellers on ebay seem to be the only answer. Local HTC service stations quote a price of Rs 5000 for just changing the digitizer.
whoa..whoa..hw many queries...computernerd come to our rescue!!!
Mostly I search for sellers who have a good rating. Also While bidding i always keep in mind shipping costs and approx rate in india. I have mostly found shipping costs to be geniune, not very high
Some items I have brought the are
Item :Scratch Gaurd
Qty : 10 Pieces
Rate : $0.99
Seller : imode_technology_hit
Item : Motorola S9 Bluetooth Stereo Headset Headphone Earphone
Rate : $31
Seller : king-shiny
Shipping : Free
Item : Bluetooth GPS Receiver For Laptop PDA Mobile Phone
Rate : $41
Seller : king-shiny
Shipping : Free
Item : #S8T1 8GB SANDISK MICRO SD HC 8G FIT NOKIA N95 N76 E90
Rate : $ 22
Seller : Donot Remember
Shipping $ 12
There have been instances about 10% when I have not received items from the sellers, but i have been fortunate that the ebay dispute has been resolved in my favor and the money has been refunded to my account
Regarding the payment, I use PayPal. I have added my Indian credit card into PayPal.
Till now i have not paid any Indian taxes. MOst of my purchases have been lesser that $100
Thanks, computernerd. That answers most of my queries. I think I will get that digitizer soon. Reason why I was asking about taxes is that I am eyeing a camera lens which is cheaper by Rs 12,000 on ebay at singapore than on ebay.in
gr8 goin..gr8 xplanation..keep it flowin
the digitiser can be changed urself if ur game for taking apart ur phone. I just got my digitiser changed last week i bought it from hira panna in mumbai and fit it myself, lots of instructions available on the net. Shopping from ebay us or uk is very easy all you need is a pay pal account. most accessories from china are indeed knock offs, but they work well for the prices they charge.
How much did the Digitizer cost at Heera Panna? Does it come with tools required to change it? Are Front and Back Covers etc (in different colours)also available there?
I have the WiFi xoom. Today I went to the Verizon store to get a charger for my xoom and the camera connectivity cable (USB Host Cable). The guy kept trying to sell me a usb charger and swore it would work. He also couldn't find the cable in the system because it wasn't listed as an official xoom accessory in the verizon system. After I laughed derisively at him I went to best buy where they had an endcap of 6 xoom accessories. The cable I was looking for (now only 19.99, heck yeah), the dock (49.99, much better), keyboard 2 cases and a screen protector.
OK so six isn't a lot of accessories but since six is greater than zero best buy sadly won my business. Plus the verizon rep there actually knew **** about the xoom (if they know what rooting is you are talking to the right guy).
So my question is, to avoid all this nonsense in the future, where do you all go or buy from (if online)?
Try eBay and Amazon that charger at best buy I got for 28.00 new. The gel case I got for 6 new and got a knockoff stand case leather for 15 and it works great.

I have a hard time trusting auction sites. I like Amazon, but sometimes I like instant gratification.
Yeah I have that same problem but all the items I bought came up to 55.00 2 cases and a charger. I like saving money as much as gradification. Plus I pay with pay pal so your protected.

I just posted a thread for 3 styluses for $1.29 here, if that helps.
Can anyone recommend a good wireless charging kit for the s3, to buy in the UK. I've checked the sticky but I can't find any of them available to purchase and I don't want to buy a low quality on eBay.
Thanks

just out of curiousity, how do you know the ones on ebay are low quality?
They're usually the same pads from the same factories that make it anyways.
as i recommended to another member earlier, I would suggest getting just the receiver (the pad that fits inside the phone) and get the nokia lumia charger or something else.
Unless you prefer their custom back cases which means you wont be able to use any kind of case with it.

all I can say is alot of things are made in china... even electronics. maybe of the brand name stuff you buy are from china but w/ the company's sticker on it for the most part so in essence you're just buying straight from the manufacturer without the fancy sticker.
mine has been working fine so i can't complain
model?

better get one off ebay mate, it will be your best bargain.
I bought one a few months ago off ebay from a seller with over 100,000 feedback, it was around 9quid. Looks genuine and exactly the same as my previous one and weighs the same, as i've read that the fake chinese ones are lighter than the original one.
