    My Money is on a misprice/cancelled order. But for €12.21 I couldn't not try this.
    You could even pay the extra €9.50 with DHL and see if they arrive sooner, and then open a dispute if need be.

    The seller has a good rating.

    EDIT - Buyer Protection is automatic and after looking around quite a bit, it seems to be very safe. Verified on quite a few sites.

    Not the most high spec phone but even still it's dirt cheap for what it is. Hopefully we get it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,801 ✭✭✭Big Pussy Bonpensiero


    Just went for it.. When it's too good to be true it normally is, but fcuk it, for €12 it's worth the risk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 140 ✭✭DylanK


    went on that page 1 min just to check out what phone it was, 1 min later im thanking you OP for posting this, with the order confirmation email in my inbox! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43 Wellactually


    Yep took a chance too, worth the risk for a little over a tenner :)

    Thanks :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 813 ✭✭✭CaSCaDe711


    Too good to be true ? Maybe I'm reading it wrong (has been a long day) but those benchmark pics don't correspond with the phone's description.

    5mp vs 13.3mp camera.
    1GB RAM vs 2024MB (2GB) :confused:

    But it's only a few quids, so worth a bet : )

    Are people paying via credit card ?
    Or does it take PayPal?

    Wonder which is safer ?

    Misprice it should be US $166.7 not US $16.67 .
    I doubt china seller will honor.

    I've used AliExpress loads of times, you're totally safe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43 Wellactually


    Its also listed on DHGATE, but for alot more, 300usd.

    Heard about that particular site before and asked a friend in China, supposidly its the equivilant of Ebay, or a Chinese Ebay.

    Never did buy the item after so cant say how genuine they are, but hopefully we got lucky :)

    Just ordered one there! Will do as a back up or even as a gift for someone (assuming of course that its not a misprint)!

    Thanks OP!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,613 ✭✭✭Big Nelly


    I guess this will work with 3g and not 4g networks in Ireland?

    Can youo add a micro sim into it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    Orders will be cancelled,I ordered some stuff from a seller on Aliexpress that was mis-priced recently & got notification that the orders were cancelled and I was refunded.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭manutd83


    Ordered 1 for me and the misses, doubt we will get them but worth a try


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,227 ✭✭✭Sam Mac


    Going to go for this! has anyone else paid by visa debit?can't see an option to pay by paypal, am I missing something?
