Guest FragMeister Posted June 2, 2008 Report Posted June 2, 2008 (edited) Whilst trying to justify to myself the expense (esp from Expansys who seem to be overcharging massively) I have done a quick froogle, and this is the best I have found: Total PDA £421.77 (inc vat and citylink shipping) http://www.totalpda.co.uk/HTC/HTC-Diamond.7291.html If you find yourself a discount code, such as "TDOFF15", you might get it even cheaper - plus remember Quidco for another 4% cashback :D but be quick, as they are only showing 3 in stock!

Our Price: £425.34, £361.99 exc vat http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/1263/htc-touch-diamond Just ordered mine...missed the deadline for ordering and "next day delivery" but should therefore have it delivered on Friday...Just in time for some weekend 'geek' fun! *guffaw* *guffaw*
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted June 18, 2008 Report Posted June 18, 2008 Mine will be here Friday too now. P
Guest Snoopstah Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 I pre-ordered mine from Handtec and it's not due till tomorrow either - despite getting stock in yesterday the website said all yesterday that it wouldn't ship till today, so even if you'd placed your order before 4pm you wouldn't have got it before Friday :D
Guest James Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 B-Stock (Open Box) from expansys £419.90 :- http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?partner=modaco&i=169757
Guest Snoopstah Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 Mine's just arrived from Handtec - good grief it's small compared to my Vario II!
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 Haha, yes, likewise compared to my V3 :D P
Guest Mysterious Stranger Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) £395.20 on Expansys B-Stock now :D 8 in stock! Surely they haven't had any returned yet? Maybe the boxes are a bit bashed?.... Must find that £10 voucher..... tempted by the sub-£400 price... M.S EDIt - seems HTC and eXpansys are having a set-too about grey imports - might be worth giving a miss to get the two year warranty? eXpansys tried taking HP on re. importing iPaq units and lost.... 2nd Edit - the returns are from customers not happy getting a HK version handset under distance selling regs. HTC Europe have 'orphaned' them saying they won't warrant them etc, eXpansys say they will cover the 2yrs. They can't be registered at HTCEurope for updates but can on the HK website. eXpansys are pulling posts / threads in the forums regarding this issue :-( IMO give them a miss on this one!

Guest LeiChat Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Wait for contract version? I've done a phone free upgrade for the last few years with o2. As I'm not taking a phone they've given me half price line rental and a credit on my account. £10 a month for 500 texts and 300 minutes (off-peak any network) First year I got a £100 credit, last year just £70 I think. I think of it as £190 towards a sim free handset. If I wait for a contract deal, my line rental is gonna go back up to £20 a month if they allow me to stay on my current tariff. As it's still a cheap tariff they'll probably charge me the highest fee for the handset, the TyTnII currently is £240. I might save about £100 ish if you take in to account the increased line rental etc. but it will probably be the o2 version of the phone etc. Tempted to just go for sim free from Handtec as my contract doesn't expire till Sept this year. As long as I keep the phone for a few years again the saving on line rental each year, if I can hagle the line credit too will eventually pay for the sim free handset. What do you reckon?
Guest Confucious Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Wait til the contract version..... Then buy one off eBay that someone gets as an unwanted upgrade :D
Guest Mysterious Stranger Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Wait til the contract version..... Then buy one off eBay that someone gets as an unwanted upgrade :( Then wait 'till the make an inusrance claim 3 months later and it gets barred :D Happens, especially on higher-value phones eg iPhone, HTc devices, Armani / Prada styled phones. Less likely on a £30 Nokia.. M.S
Guest Confucious Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 I've bought a Universal, an Athena and an E90 (aand probably others that I've forgotten) and never had a problem. Maybe I'm just to trusting...
