    ork Ireland Ireland PayPal Europe Express for the order with battery, with tracking number.100% Sure NO custom duty for you,about 7-12days USD 1 JY-G4 Thick 1GB


    but we make a mistake , that we send you 2 pcs , not 1pcs.

    we need to hold it the goods in uk .

    or do you need 2pcs ? i can do 20usd less for you discount for the second one ,we are so sorry for the mistake that we make.

    could you ask if you or your friend need the second one jiayu g4 ?


    They say they sent out two by mistake & will hold in UK.

    Has anyone ever had something similar happen?

    What should i do?

    899 yuan just is a lie. Normally it will sell 1299 yuan, even more. Thanks

    so doubt it will be cheap :(

    I don't understand how they can hold it in the UK.
    If so can't they just take the phone out then?

    They just ask the courier to 'hold' the parcel, if you say ok and pay for the second one they release the parcel again, if not they get it returned to them.

    Imagine they never caught the mistake......ah sure try bargain them down, if not im sure they can open it for you and remove one.

    I ordered a Inew 3v phone off them on the 17th and its still processing. On their chat, they asked for $20 to use UPS and it will be dispatched immediately.
    Chancing their arm on both accounts I would imagine.

    If they ask the courier to open it and remove 'one' you might find that 2 were removed !!

    Then the courier loses his job and paypal refund all :p

    Ehhh no. You get a parcel with one phone in it or no phone in it. You decide when you open it whether there is one in it or none in it!!

    That is why they won't ask the courier to open it, take one out and send it back to them and send the other one onto you.

    They will simply ask the courier company to cancel the delivery, return the parcel with the 2 in it to them, and then send you out a parcel with one in it.

    I don't think that I would be willing to pay for the second one until I received the parcel, as what if the mistake was not on your order and you only get one, and somebody else got the two in error ?

    How long does your order take to show up on the EMS website. Got the tracking number yesterday morning and it's still not showing up.

    Jaysus, the Jiayu G4 advanced is 260 euro.
    I bought mine for 220 I think back in Oct from Mixeshop.
    They could do with lowering the prices a bit
