really long story
bt these sep
really not professional
samsung should take back those sep name from them

its known there are shortages
currently
its like this
the 1st batch of s3 is for telcos only
then only sep
then last is normal shop

sep already hav their stocks
bt its not enough

telcos earn from contracts
sep earn from phones n accessories
normal shop now if wan stock need take from sep
n the price is more than rrp
tat is why non sep shop sellin at higher price
this is due to sep distributin the limited stocks at higher than retail price

now sep wanna clear their accessories lolz
force this on the consumers

now they r takin pre orders
cuz they wanna hold on to ur money

by the time
mayb 1 or 2 week
normal shops start havin stocks
the prices will b cheaper than sep
n witout the need to bundle

better buy direct from samsung center ..
they sell ka the phone? or just Q&A center?

forgot to ask what i get from rm2399 ..
not bad la 2350, better than mine ..

maybe can consider get from digi cheapest package if that price..

cos line not good? my place only got Edge.. so i can only use it for checking fb, email, and some other light surfing only.. .. other heavy works, leave for my streamyx and maxis  and i dun wan to wait anymore..duno wait till when also... but ur chances to get one sooner is much higher than me here.. ....

finally!!!!!got my pebble blue set from lowyat plaza today..phewww..after soooooooo long n i am soooo excited to own it!yahoooo...tho a lil bit expensive but cheapest at low yat today..most expensive is 2400..SEP next friday only restock blue..so bought it from tarita multimedia for 2250..RM51 more than RRP but nevermind since i've came so far and rushed down to lowyat just for it..hehe first impression is, ITS AWESOMEEE!!!and blue color is SUPER NICEE!!im glad to be able to hold my itchy hand from getting a white set last time..i'll add picture later..

i also bought my white s3 from low yat for 2199, of course after searching in the whole building

Ok ... saw it on maxis site. Have to be one club member first :

xreactor:the shop is on the floor above G..1st floor is it?

yes, was there at 11am, lucky no ppl yet, 30mins later, packed with ppl. pebblue vry limited. nw still exploring the phone

hi, need know what plan suit me?
I probably will only HEAVY SURFING & YOUTUBE on S3, so, i prefer to pay for data plan only.
Does maxis work for me? Thinking to take 3GB, RM68/month

need wait how long

How many times you do pre-order bro..!?
I really pity you. Hope you get your S3 soon enough..dont be like last time at Nexus thread  :-)

Yes it reminds me of his "buying" experience of the Galaxy Nexus . Most of his postings there were about how he wants to buy it and ends up not buying. It was indeed a big story at that thread
Hope to see he really gets to buy the SGS III this time round and not endup another big story again

just came back from town...few shops got white colour and only one shop got blue one..another shop will receive their stock both blue and white this afternoon.. all of them sell at rm2299..and i heard a guy told his customer last few days selling price was rm2699 and he was the first shop receive the stock of s3 in whole sarawak.. i was like  ...then i went back to digi to continue check my line and bill problem which tat day i missed out ... and i saw they left 2 set of blue colour handset only..

Hikari quoted me Rm130... but y the price in the forum more expensive than a retail shop....?

just got my unit from alieamin..white color..
Still using my s2 now coz no casing or sp for my s3..
..

ya..phone only...normally the shops will give one free clear sp for customer..any phones..but if u r good at bargain, maybe will add in one gel case  ... . i think those ppl are really rich and cant wait then will get at tat price.. but now all sell at rm2299 without anything.. only with one sp.. lol.. i felt i am lucky that time...add in rm50 extra on top of that price i got 1gb data to use for 1 yr..some more blue colour 

lol...my place only EDGE...  can u imagine the speed? but very stable .. haha..last few month i try digi at bukit bintang area..line not bad.. quite fast and stable.. i also wish can have that speed in my place... 

@XeactorZ you trade in your nexus for this ? thought in nexus thread you had mentioned your dad friend can get samsung cheaper

1gb enuff for me to check mail, fb, light surfing ..edge still can do all this works  ..... and just pay like rm150 extra ...i used my prepaid to upgrade...better than i every month need reload to maintain the line and sometime i forgot to reload....  i also bring over my credit balance inside my prepaid to the new line...if not put there also no use..  after one yr, downgrade back to prepaid..

why so unlucky 1 even xreactor still waiting. xreactor you pre order how much?

celcom in my area depend on location...inside my house keep turning 3g and 2g..once 2g, cannot run... but if u stand in the middle of the road, the speed is fast...    i will not choose celcom internet...call plan is ok due to their wide coverage..but not their line..  digi's edge has no such problem in my place.. 

maxis need call plan rm50 or rm30..i dun need it.. i use DG50 paid by my company ..dun wan waste money to get another call plan put there..the only telco can get is DG..  and i am using maxis unlimited mobile internet.. so no problem for me.. 

last time when i use celcom bb, i need pull my modem till beside the window..if not, i must hold my notebook and sit right beside the window.. sigh..
