Is clove a good site to get this phone from or is there a better place?
Without contract the best places are expansys - £494, Handtec - £502 and Clove - £514
With a contract the best place is www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk, you can get the phone on Vodafone or T-Mobile for a very cheap price and it is fully unlocked to all networks.

I get it from clove. Fast delivery and nice tracking too :>
I get it from Inkino in London the price is 519 pounds.
I'd vote for Clove - have used them for years (since the Psion days) and they're nice & friendly. Delivered mine next day.
Did any of you US clove buyers end up paying import duties? If so, how much?
My vote is for Clove also. Just started using them but found them to be quick and reliable.

Do you guys think $460 USD for a new one is a good deal for it? Thanks!
I can tell you that mine with a contract from T-Mobile was $396 taxes and shipping. I simply renewed with a new 2 year contract to get that price. Still not happy with the cost, but it was still cheaper than getting one with a German QWERTZ keyboard ( since I live in Germany and have T-Mobile in the US, too).
Oh... Hmmm, well, I'm getting it from T-mobile too, except without a contract. I think without contract should make up for it, no? Since I'm on prepaid.
wow, that much WITH a 2 year contract? i got mine for free with an 18 month one

If it´s unlocked and with no contract price is ok I think.
If you have the link where I can get it one for that price please post it here!
Sorry no link. I'm using craigslist.
Not a bad deal at all. I paid $540 shipped overnight for mine unlocked. Wasn't brand new but it basically was. Hardly used, 10/10 condition, box and all accessories. I wish I couldve paid just $460 haha ... hell, if you don't like it, you can always resell it for $100+ more than what you paid.

Do a quick search of the forum. I just ordered mine today for $149 ... No activation, free shipping...
Paying more than $150 isn't a good deal...
I´m sure prices will drop waiting all this fever of getting it first!
So if there is no rush for having it, waiting always is better.
Damm, I can´t wait to have one

many people here not realizing how lucky they are with the subsidized price from operators... *although by partially selling your soul to them on contract *
i can confirm shadixs experience cuz I paid around that much too. but in our cases, it's price after tax and includes after-sales warranty. we can buy through ebay, or imports, but no after-sales...
you paid 655, is it included warranty... sir?
peid 600
paid 600 Euros without a contract.
Everz single Euro was worth it !!!!

May I ask where you purchased one for £350? I'm in the market for one once I've sold my HTC Hero tomorrow.
would everyone put an expected price for the gsm unlocked desire in US dollars???
just thoughts..
It's all over the web ready for pre-order already. Just go to the usual suspects and check...
Clove
Expansys
Devicewire
If you're not good with currencies, just let Google do the work for you.
htcdirect: £386.95
clove: £387.75
devicewire: £389.95
expansys: £439.99
my question was, which price of them is the confirmed one! lol

Those price include the VAT (VAT are kindda taxes and they only apply for European countries) judging from your flag, you're not in Europe, so if you happen to order, the VAT value will be deducted from the over-all price you mentioned

Last time I checked...around $530 from Handtec
I will wait for black market version, the shop guy pretends he will get it within 2 weeks
As for the price if he's selling the N1 for 750$ right now I think the Desire will cost 650$
BTW ok it costs much less from Clove but you have to add 20% Lebanese customs
on expansys and play.com it is £439.99
on handtec.co.uk its £387.15
why?
Just to add to your confusion
405.95 @ Buymobilephones
£348.99 @ MobilePhonesDirect
Because it's new, and some will earn more on it.

Is it simlocked or no? Do you know if they deliver outside UK?
Hey guys, I really want to be able to get the international version of the One X (quad core) but I don't know where to get it or how much it will cost :/ or can I just not preorder it? That I'm okay with haha
You can order from expansys, it has worldwide delivery :
http://www.expansys.com/delivery/
or http://clove.co.uk
Others may find you better deals
Wow! From clove I could get it for under 700$?!?!
Which is more reliable on-time delivery ?
Could have medialink to be perfect.
It's a matter of tax, don't know how they work.
I had some when I tried to order on it but am in Europe so...
Edit :
about delivery time expansys claims 3-4 days, probably the same for clove
Hmm.. How would I be able to find the tax amount you think? During order process?
Yeah i did like I was going to buy one, didn't need registration to see that if I remember well. When you choose delivery location it should tell you the price of tax and shipping
When I go to place the order it seems like 675$

I am also from canada and i ordered from www.handtec.co.uk , anywhere you pre order outside of canada you will have to pay taxes and duty fee's to the delivery guy when it gets to your door, for the one x it will probably be around 80-100$ on top of what your gonna pay from the retailer. From past experience make sure they don't ship via UPS as they are horrible and charge handling fee's and stuff.

So you think about 100$ meaning around 800$ for the phone? sadly thats what i expected but was hoping itd be less haha XD
That 100 on top is a custom fee on Canada, or anywhere ?

Fedex also charges handling fees. I have ordered from handtec before, and fedex delivers it around 2 days. Really quick service.
Handec declares the amount you paid for the device. So if for example you paid $700 for the device, you will pay the fedex guy upon delivery 12% tax (for BC) plus their handling fee.

Shoot 12% is a lot on 700$... :/ why can't they just sell the One X in canada?!?!?! or in the states even.... do you think it'd be cheaper if i got some sort of contact in UK to send one to me??
Fedex aways charge fees.
I dont get that handling fees. Its exclusive in Canada ?
Its a country import rule ?
If I ship one to USA, I will pay either ?

I may have to go for the sgs3 just for availability

Hey Everyone. A quick question, where can I purchase the Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe ZS570KL Sim Free, Unlocked and shipped to the UK?
I got mine off ebay, though it was shipped, direct, from Taiwan to Australia...
Expansys or does Kogan ship to UK?
I too got it off ebay, shipped directly from Taiwan. I have had it for over 3 weeks now. It's an amazing phone !

Was neither, was an American company that contacted me with an Asian lady (who wasn't great with english) by emails. It was drop-shipped to me from Taiwan through Fedex...
