Hi guys, i want to know if any of you know where to get a new, in-box motorola milestone/ droid here in KL. My birthday is tomorrow and i really want this phone. I know you can get it in HK, but i want to get it in a shop here instead of buying online. Also, i want it in a real shop, selling somewhere like Low Yat plaza, klcc, or pavillion, not just somebody who's offering to sell theirs. Thanks
PS, preferably under 2.5 k rm
thanks

EDIT: Sorry guys, im kinda cheap, changed my mind to under 2.1 K rm, know any places?

Checkout lelong.com.my. I got a few hits. Just call them before you go to their shop. Most of the sellers do have a shop. I got my G1 that way.

I'd rather not buy online, and i want to make sure it's in-box and unopened. Sorry, im picky . Does anyone know of reliable shops around low yat or klcc or pavillion? I'd like to see the things physically before buying them
thanks

someone bought a unit from subang parade. not sure what the shop name tho. pda something if im not mistaken.

if you search in lelong there are a few sellers. u can contact them if you want see the phone first, but you must buy after that la

Checkout the garage sale. We have a guy named Terry who sells the Milestone. He gets the stuff from a shop near Midvalley. Its not a retail store but a distributor outlet. So you should get from Terry. He sells it for RM1930. The unit is from HK and the parts are original.

If you buy from Automationbites, you'll get RM1880

Wow thats a good price! I had to stick with Terry because I wanted to trade in a phone for it. And I'm tired of posting items for sale although I know I could get a higher price.

wow, thanks guys! so, are all of these places selling them unopened and with warranty?

automationbites should come with AP warranty..regarding unopened i;m not sure
eventhough you are buying from low yat etc it doesn't mean the item is unopened..either way the phone must be opened to stick on SIRIM sticker right.

Most of the Milestone I've checked comes with an AP warranty but we don't really know to what extend it covers. You won't see the usual popular AP companies for some reasons. Frankly speaking, I'll keep fingers crossed because I don't know how good these AP companies are. But to answer your question, warranty yes but what kind of support you will be getting, I DON'T KNOW.

Most probably they may send the unit from where it belong if they cannot resolve the issue over here. Say a hardware fault or a problematic ROM flash. It may or may not cost you. For software issues, I think its pretty clear cut. So make sure you test all the features before purchasing.

That is the state of all newest and greatest Android phone in Malaysia. They are not officially available in retail so we impatient people have to find other means to get it. The good news is I heard Milestone will be eventually sold in Malaysia. So at least worst comes to worst, we can pay a fee to get things fixed here. For N1 lovers, you best bet is to head down to Singapore.

All AP phones are opened. You need to understand the change in hands they go through before landing at the customer. They literally buy it off retail from official countries or through inside sources and then deliver it over to Malaysia. So if you are the 'distributor' you have to test each set to ensure they are working before flying back to Malaysia. I'm not really familiar with the AP business. Perhaps Terry (the trader who sells Milestone) can enlighten us.

seriously, even ori phones will be opened by seller to check the content when collecting from distributors.
this is even sometimes new phones can be faulty too due to manufacturing defects..moreover,they need to stamp the warranty card

Lelong.com.my is just a way to find out who's selling the Milestone. Nowadays, it is common for mobile phone sellers that do have shops to advertise / sell via lelong.com.my as well.

So you need not buy online, just visit their shops.

Yes agreed. If they have a shop, it is likely that they have credit card facilities (some of you prefer to use CC) and trade-in program. Still direct traders usually offer a more competitive price but they don't accept trade-ins. Just one off sales.

most dealer who sell cheap at buttom price not accept credit card due to market too many fake card...
also very troublesome to wait bank investigation ...bla bla bla ..
btw today price go lower for ap 1860...
