Had a quick look there, is he a business seller ? 3 feedback from the last 12 months ??

I am assuming he offers warranty etc.

Best of luck with it if you do decide to go ahead with it.

I think there are a few crossed wires here tonight. The phone abarkie linked to is a P3000S Elephone whereas the discussion regarding the ebay.ie one is for a One Plus One 64gb.

Yes, but only 2 of that feedback is in the last 12 months ? Not a very prolific business but once you are happy that is all that matters.

Best of luck with it.

One on adverts there for 340, used but 'like new condition'.

Not a hope you're getting a Elephone 3000s for £110 def dodgy.

Oh god no :eek: Land Rover is a name stuff onto 'tough' chinese phones, not an actual brand! Crap CPU, crap screen, crap ram and only 4gb rom. And it'll probably only half work and die after a few months. I have experience with unbranded phones, and none were good.

That was said tongue in cheek but thanks for the warning

Try minideal or aliexpress instead. I'd never buy from etotalk as they give a very bad impression by trying to charge you for everything and they're usually more expensive than other places.

I read the comments on one of their phones before and someone asked 'if i get etotalk mod rom, does it have playstore and is it rooted'. Etotalk replied that their mod rom includes both 'unlocked+rooted and play store'. Yet if you add the etotalk mod rom, you can still select these other 2 things effectively wasting $6. I doubt they will ever refund anyone who does this.

Look at their video titled xiaomi redmi 2 etotalk mod rom vs original rom' etotalk.com/xiaomi-redmi-2-4g-lte_p7477.html[/url]
I noticed when watching it that the etotalk mod rom screen looked better, then they showed the brightness levels trying to imply their rom improves the screen. Looked back on it and at the start when screen is off, you can tell they have a light shining directly on the other phone to make the screen look dimmer. Their mod rom is nothing different than any other chinese reseller install for free. Dodgy shop imo.

Had a look and I see you point there was definitely more light on it thanks for pointing it out

The question was not actually intended for you.

when did this become a playground? I leave for one evening and chaos. some of the posters seem about 12 years old.

Mr_Muffin · 06-02-2015 9:16am

Anyone notice the ZTE Blade 3 in Ali express for 250 dollars? Ships from the UK as well.

Not a million miles off the price from Geekbuying:

About 120gbp ??

but obviously the customs men might add a bit to that !!

Jesus the price has come down something else, though the Euro is still terrible.

MLAIS M9 is not mentioned ( :mad: ).

Just ordered it. Heard so many good reviews about it. Pity the memory isn't expandable, apart from that, it's has a fantastic spec for the price.

rob180 · 08-02-2015 8:12pm

Oops, the title should read " Meizu M1 Note "

Either way, its not comparable as no import duty etc as UK based, so only a few days, rather than the potential 3 or 4 weeks from Far East
