dear, expansys price is just a soft copy reference.

nooone is going to buy from expansys, mayb u, but i dont think others will.
im getting it thru singtel with my relatives.

I'm in the UK and I'm thinking of getting a SIM Free set. There are pretty good deals like 30 pounds a month for 2 years and free phone but then the phone might be locked and you cant bring it back to Malaysia :/.

That is provided he bring in for you. If he sent by post/courier you will still be subjected to customs examination and possible hold up. One trick you can use ask him just to send you the phone with an alternative box and all accessories opened up. In this way it will resemble a set not meant for resale. I use this when I bought a PDA ( worth US500) from ebay and same time under declared it at US300 - the unit I received I noticed was  with Msian customs stamp,  opened and checked but I need not pay a single sen extra

VAT is applicable once you buy in UK irrespective where you wish it to be sent in UK. VAT is not necessary if set is directly exported out from UK. If you buy in UK and declared it at airport leaving the country, you can claim back the VAT paid. I have 2 children in London ( one working and another studying ) - they'd been buying stuffs for me from UK. Infact my daughter said she can buy for me if I can wait till year end  when she plan to come back.

Im ready, Are u guys ready for the unboxing?????

my whole life as a poor child, i never see
