Hi all,
Just came across a Unlocked White 16GB 3G iPhone in the E-Bay shop area from a trusted seller many have used on this Forum X1387. Only one slight problem he wants £1,105.30 for it you can view his listing here.

Now that's a lot of money but if he is getting them unlocked i would imagine in a month or so the price will have dropped quite a lot.

£1,000 + for an iPhone people are taking the P*ss. By next week the prices will have dropped to half that, and supply from Taiwan will replenish depleted stock in stores.
I advise anyone thinking of getting one to wait a week or two save you a few hundred if not thousands.

I think in the UK definatley its worthwile taking out the contract as nowhere else will you get unlimted data + wifi aswell as decent number of mintues and texts.
tmobile has solo 15 (sim only 1 month rolling contract) with 350 minutes and 650 texts and if you add the £12 web'n'walk pro which has fair use data of 3gb + 9000+ wifi hotspots in uk and 300 minutes global roaming wifi
so for £27/month you get a pretty good package and reasonably comparable to the £35 o2 plan (which has 150 more minutes but 150 less texts)

Hello Guys..Have not posted here for a while but just a few lines to help people out regarding supply of the Iphone 3g
I got mine from Italy on Friday while there on business..Unlocked, Black, 16 Giga.
I just walked into a TIM center..They asked for my passport and my credit card..they used a fake Italian address to register the sim card which was part of the package and that was it..No further questions asked..
The phone is unlocked and opereating perfectly in Greece now with a vodafone sim card...
Total price Euro 569 as adverised all over Europe..
So please wait and do not fork out big money right now..It will soon be freely available across Europe unlocked..
The only catch is they dont sell you more than one..at the moment..
Regards.
PS : Please do not ask me to psot any pictures!!!! |

I got it from the Central TIM center in Bergamo (Near Milan)..But you can just buy it from any big TIM centre all over Italy...As long as they have it in stock..
European law does not allow comanies to bind a product to a monopolistic service..they have to sell the product alone..Some operators are keeping it hush hush as they will try to get in as many contracts as possible..
Good luck.. |

It would cost much less than 500 pounds including the easyjet air fare... |

You've got 14 days to return it just like any other phone. They'd take a percentage of the line rental off you for the time you've had it but that's fair enough.
I picked up a 16gb white one this morning from the local apple store. Loving it so far!

With CPW you shouldn't have too much of an issue...
I have purchased ONLINE and done exchanges in the shop... You may get a sales advisor... who intends to be a pain... but at my local I would have no problems in doing this...
Cheers
 ENJOY
