Best deal for P800!!
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

hi, i've been eyeing the P800 for quite sometime and finally have enough $$$ to buy one and replace my trusty (but lacking) t68.

so basically where can i get the "cheapest/brand new" (unlocked) P800 whether it be online or at a retailer. I'm currently located in Los Angeles, CA and tied up with Cingular.

i did some searching earlier and prices range from $600-700. i think the cheapest i saw was from ExpansysUS for like $570++. But when i took a closer look it seems like the 16mb memory card is not included. has anyone ordered from them yet that can confirm this??

thanx in advance!!!

I have ordered from eXpansys and they are great guys but somethings are pricey.... You should give them a call concerning the 16mg card as I think its included in the package. Ask for Dave or Dennis +1 (309) 820-7913. Just tell them Frank from NYC recommended you call.

Regards and Good Luck,
Frank

I looked on ebay but the prices weren't that great, Expansys is the cheapest one I found and I ordered mine yesterday! Should have it next week...I can't wait!!

i was going to order my P800 through gsmphonesource since it said they had free firmware upgrades and i didn't want to buy a brand new phone and have it shipped out again for firmware updates so i was going to buy my P800 from them for 645 i think kind of on the expsensive side i know but it would of had the firmware on it but than they told me they ship from outlet centers and i would still need to ship it back to them for the firmware so that was a end of that. than i took the ebay route and i found a brand new Mineral Grey still sealed for $615 so i'm happy with my purchase, only till friday when i get it now

"roguemoog" - were you able to confirm whether your order does include the extra 16mb memory card from Expansys??

"oppy" i just missed out on the link you provided for the p800 from ebay earlier. there was one available for $525 at the "buy it now" option. unfortunately it was sold by the time i got there.

anyway what kinda search options/filter you using? please feel free to provide me more links if you come across some

I did not confirm, I assumed it came in the standard package that includes the 16MB. I asked about firmware but never got a response - however my order is being processed very quickly, so I'm happy about that. About the memory card, I'm buying a 128 anyway...so I won't have much of a need for a 16mb duo, I hate carrying more than one card.

Ron i sent you a PM take a look

thanks oppy.. now hopefully the guy can get back to me right away. i sent him an e-mail as it seems the phone doesn't come with all the usual accessories. like usb cradle, 16mb memory, etc.

I got mine from this site and everything went smoothly. I received the phone seven buisness days after I ordered which seamed too long, each day felt like a year. I prefer one or two day delivery max. But everything else was as expected.

Well let me know what they say. mine shipped yesterday, delivery estimated 8/13 but I won't be home until 8/16 so that's when I'll see it. I thought sonyericsson shipped the phone with the usual accessories, usb cradle, mem stick, strap, battery...I doubt expansys is taking the phones out of the box and re-boxing them alone. Everywhere I've seen them sold they always include the same accessories.

roguemoog, i was actually referring to an auction on ebay regarding that post. i'm actually still trying to get a "deal". i'm most likely gonna try till next week and if no luck i'll most likely go ahead and order from ExpansysUS.
