~.~

He used the phone for less than 2 hours after he noticed something wrong... Just on the phone with the dealer... offer refund.. but my brother will lose RM380 (of course he can't refund to the shop will full price, as the phone is now considered 2nd hand...)
He paid the price RM1180 for the phone... and the shop offer him a refund of RM800
So huge difference

Should he take the refund offer.. (use less than 2 hours... but lose ~RM400).. just because the shop's definition of "Korea AP" is different ~.~

Please be specify la how do yo want ppl to help you

1st Please state what phone is that.

2st whats the something wrong your friend notice? List it down

3rd No such thing as Korea AP but AP is AP they do that to cheat you.

3rd There is not refund that is call trade in? I do not recommend you to trade in because the shop takes in RM800 then he will resell about RM850 to RM900 inclusive the price your friend bought he will make about at least RM300 to RM400 from your deal.

4th In away its consider 2nd hand in a way its NOT. That is how shop make that extra money. Take low sell high.

Hi.. got a question..

My bro, just bought a phone..
A Galaxy S3... at some kind of Phone Fair or smth...
The Price.. huge difference from the original (RRP 2k~)

He check a bit.. outlook buttons the same.. Screen.. smooth..
Software - ICS 4.0.3 for SGS3 and a lil bit of this and that...
He ask, why so cheap... the dealer says this is a KOREA AP SET...
So... later, he buy...

Upon arrive home.. he check and check sommore...
Realize that the Battery is Sunsang not Samsung (font's the same ~.~")
Check IMEI... there's 2 IMEI appear (i donno bout other GS3).. but the phone only have 1 Sim slot...
512RAM and 2GB internal memory...
Screen Reso is  800x480 (typical Android reso?).. GS3 is 1280 x 720, rite?
And running benchmark, the result was soo low compared to the original GS3

I check on Samsung Korea.. but I can't find the same phone spec...

Is this considered an AP phone?

*To me it's more like a FAKE phone ~.~;

he makes about RM380 from the deal he sold to your bro. Then resell that trade in device alittle higher so he will make at least RM450 or higher.

I've returned the phone witha refund of RM1k.
That's 180 for a lesson...

Before that, I went to Tribunal Pengguna and KPNDKK (or smth), discuss with them.
They say, it is possible to get the refund but they will also consider the depreciation value, and they told me, it might take up to a month before I was called for any kind of trial. Within that one month, a lot of thing can happen. And for a non-original stuff (imitation) the depreciation rate will be higher... And I might be getting less...

So, this'll be quite a lesson for me tongue.gif ...

Thanks again for those who helped in any way :]

Question: Is it safe to assume that for sealed phones ( with non-removable battery) the phones have not been altered? How do I check that the IMEI numbers match if I cannot open the phone?

This is mostly cos I'm looking to buy an AP HTC One S, but not sure how I can check to see if it hasn't been altered (other than coming in a sealed box) - they wouldn't be able to switch the battery right? Would they would go as far as to disassemble phone...

Hi,

1) For those samsung phones S3, note, etc in Harvey Norman, are they original set? no hanky panky?
2) And if the phone is bought from Harvey Norman and there is some issue, can I bring the phone to Samsung authorized dealer or service center?

Thanks
