Hi all,

I intend to purchase an Iphone 3G, of course wish to get the best deal. I notice there are alot of FAKES and IMITATIONS around.

I'm wondering has anyone bought from Ebay Dropshippers (they claim).

What's the current price like for a new Iphone 3G 16GB ?

Thanks

hi and welcome bro....

to answer most of ur question.... try read frm this pinned thread
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/871684

as for the buying frm ebay or something.... why waste so much time when u can deal and COD with our sellers around here? u dont have to worry about its fake or not... becoz u see it for urself...
but then again... its ur decision...

good luck!

For those who have been diligently scouring the threads would know I have been doing just that looking for a good deal. I was actually a bit late as before I knew of LYN I was all over....Mudah, Lelong and eBay and got conned at the latter.

I agree with 'Genocide', for many reasons but above all is the scamming you subject yourself to with online purchases, that nothing is better and safer than finalizing a deal with COD. I must say for the few weeks I got hooked to LYN, it has been a pleasant place to be besides getting some good deals. The community here, for lack of a better word, is friendly. After your purchase, stick around here as it is a good resource place for your iPhone needs!

So, my friend, look around and you will probably find a deal suitable, if you care to, like me, browse aound. The average prices are for 3G 8gb 2.4k and 16gb 2.7k. But I got myself a better deal

Best of luck to you. Cheers.

me don`t trust ebay

u can get iphone 3g 8gb for 2.1k in one of the thread...

Thanks Bro, I was thinking the same line too. Then again, there could be fakes or refurbished, and warranty problems.

It is a risk I have to take.

Do you mind sharing the experience of being conned on ebay, may others learn something from it. If you mind, then it's ok.

Cheers.

Not that I mind but it's a long story. The moral not just for me but for all concerned, imho, is when you purchase something from anyone especially in such places, be cautious to an extent of being suspicious when something is amiss. That would be the rule of thumb. Cheers and good luck.

noted.
thanx again.

Bro,

the safest way to get an iphone is from here.the prices the sellers are selling are quite cheap compared to outside.

cheers

Anyway just some information I've got to know, recently iphone prices in SG has dropped tremendously, due to the fact that ppl there are signing up the for the plan, for the sake of the phone, and sell it out..

reliable sources told me that, prices around 400SGD for a 8gb can be found also.....prices as low as 250SGD, for some that got the iphone for free for being loyal singtel users....

Really ?

Geez.... if that's the case, should i wait longer...... hmmmmm....

For me, just find a good deal with a good price that suit ur taste and ur pocket. FInd the safest deal where i can say COD. Do a survey every where to compare the price.
