i've seen someone posted in another forum, asking for CDN$900 for a locked japanese one. what do you guys think? what do you think the market price is right now? i say about $700

The lowest I saw on e-bay for UNLOCKED UK version is 375GBP or something and the typical price of about 519GBP....

it this phone unlocked already? which means it can be used worldwide? wow!! that's a great news!! but what is the different between the japanese ones and the uk ones?

Posted by: Timsta

700 is the retail price.... its pretty ridiculous considering its not even unlocked.

I paid USD 550 incl. shipping (sent from Australia) and a cancelled Vodafone Japan simcard (to test the camera and other stuff) for a locked black 903sh.

there is a great possibility this phone cannot be unlocked, I would wait before purchase

Posted by: Tobby

Reading the forum at www.setool.net it seems like it's a good chance for the phone to be unlocked in the future.

so this phone is about CDN$ 650 ~ CDN$ 700 in the market right now. how about after is unlocked? what do you guys say? i say about CDN$ 800

as long as it's not $1000.... i am patiently waiting for it.. when does it come to Canada?

Posted by: kinmod

It was unlocked...the ones on e-bay that are unlocked at the moment are unlocked by Vodafone themself....For Vodafone UK, u need to ring them up and pay 20GBP for unlock code.....

yeh~~ I think you should buy it... but then becareful~~ Since most of them are from UK..... U know if something happens, then it's hard to trace la.
I got one myself sent by my cousin so it's all good. It's unlocked~~

Is the UK Vodafone unlock something that could be done by calling from the US?

Nope, you have to have an account with them, since they will charge it to your account.

So you could theoretically unlock any phone as long as you have a UK phone account..?

I paid US$130 for my new in the box SH 903 here in Japan.

But it is locked to Vodafone Japan. I ve been chasing some deals over the 903sh, and I found out that for an unlocked sx833 you will be spending from U$860-to more than U$1.000. The best price for a online store is on plemix.com.
There are some guys selling it on ebay, but some have a very bad feedback.
Anyway, I am still hunting the best deal!

I don't know, or care if it is locked to Vodafone in Japan, since I live in Japan.
