price around EU for XDA

[Rudegar]

no local phone companys are offering the XDA /qtek..... phones
with a phone subscription which always lower the price of the phone

but i can buy the qtek 1010 64MB without a phone subscription but with sales tax (25%) it's 589.662 £ / 827.496 euRO

which is pretty high imho

are there anywhere in UK or germany or something like that where you can buy the XDA without a subscription much cheaper then that ?
(and are these places where they ship to other EU countries ?)

thanks for any help

I managed to pick up a 32MB XDA for £150 from carphone warehouse - no plan either. Ex demo model which was as good as new. The SKU is XDAXDEMOSILVER if you want to check with your local CPW to see if they have any in stock.

Hi

I am sure you guys will know- eBay UK is a good cheap source for xdas and I got mine (64mb version) brand new for £290; no vat. You got to play safe and check out the seller; for me I got his number, send a cheque to a proper address with the cheque crossed so that it HAS to go into a bank account and made him send me a proper receipt. You can also use one of those escrow service which only pay the guy after you have received the set in good order. Right now this minute, there are 32 mb brand new phones advertised for £250. Most of these guys selling the new phones are folks who have contracts with O2 and doesn't need the upgrade xda and tried to make some money out of it. If you bid for one, I figure the 64mb version would be worth around £300 ish and the 32 mb version is about £200 ish. This is from observations over the last 3 months or so and of course there is an element of luck as to how many people were interested in your same bid.

Good luck :lol:

XDA is coming for sale in Italy in July/August as Qtek 1010 from 3 operators.

Vodafone: will sell it only through their business channel at first, later in stores as Vodafone PDA. You can check www.190.it

WIND & TIM: both operators should go commercial very soon, I guess September.

Good thing is in Italy non of the operators lock the phones. Therefore you can go into ANY store and buy the device without a contract or so on
