Seems legit. Anybody in France we know to check up on them. SonyEricsson manufactures P900's in France.

I would be wary. no protection as u cannot pay by credit card. If u look at job vacancies it takes you to a page in america ??!!??

typos make it look suspicious and they have traded for two years ???

be careful guys.

I'm pretty sure all of the 37 pages feedback are FAKE.
Not a good sign..
Seems pretty strange they already have a price for the S700 but they don't give a release date.

Prices on the P900 are way too low. Even if they were second hand.
So it's either fake or the phones are stolen (not very likely).

They do have a phone number, you could always give them a call.

EDIT: When you look them up with whois, the whois server gives a "no match" reply. Never seen that before.
They say the company is situated in Paris, however the site is hosted in Malaga, Spain. Why would you host your site abroad?

But they using an Escrow service for payment.Isn't that mean you have to pay when you received the goods?
In that case it's worth to try.
Isn't it?

When you can first try the phone, then go for it.

I've never used Escrow, but if it's really reliable give it a shoot!
They use fedex for shipping, so I think it's worldwide delivery.

289 euro is really cheap, normal retail price is about 750 euro.
I don't think the wholesale price is even that low, so I have no idea how they can be so cheap..

Let us know if you try it!

Escrow is where u pay a 3rd party who holds the payment. They then notify the seller who ships the goods. The buyer then gives the go ahead to relea7e the fund7 when iten is received. They usually use a fake escrow. Mail them and ask what company they use. Its probably in mexico.
