Issues with buying from Hong Kong on ebay? (unlocked)

GerryTheLeper · 2011-01-31 21:15:45

Hey guys, My Nokia e51 recently broke and I was looking at this as a replacement, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-Nokia-N95-Phone-3G-WiFi-GPS-5MP-Bluetooth-Unlocked-/230532813567?pt=UK_MobilePhones_MobilePhones&hash=item35acd392ff Are there any issues I should be aware of that it's from hong kong? Seems like a good enough deal…

Hey guys,

My Nokia e51 recently broke and I was looking at this as a replacement,

Are there any issues I should be aware of that it's from hong kong? Seems like a good enough deal since its new.

Thanks

Be careful you don't end up with a genuine Nokla.

I would not buy anything more than cables on eBay if they ship from HK.

I got a genuine Eyephone from HK, says it was direct from the Orange factory, I just needed to use Eyechoons, but my Sorny laptop sorted that, safe as houses those Chinese resellers.
