I found these three sites in Italy that sell the P800:

http://www.iltelefoninonline.tim.it - 759 euros
http://www.mallteam.it - 699 euros
http://www.telefonomania.it/ - 769 euros

Has anyone heard or ordered from one of these sites... Any info on any of these would be appreciated...

thanks,

Kamil

SIM locked? Hmmm....

The deals do look too good to be true... From what I have been told, TIM does not lock their phones.. I am going to call each one of the merchants tomorrow and ask them whether their phones are locked and whether they accept credit cards. I'll keep everyone posted.

Pretty sure phones sold in Italy are not locked, though you might have to sign a contract.

Italy is known for HIGH prices everywhere.

Try Germany or Hong Kong/Asia/Singapore

If it says the phones are sourced in Italy and they're SIM locked, it's a scam. SIM locking is illegal in Italy.

Edited to note that I didn't see anything about the phones being SIM locked but the TIM website didn't mention the P800, the middle one said it wasn't available. The lower one shows availability but says nothing about lead time. It doesn't seem like a contract is required at that price either. I tried placing an order but I don't know what the P.IVA/CF number is, I believe it's some sort of business/personal ID number which obviously I wouldn't have.

I called both www.mallteam.it and www.telefonomania.it. They both said that they didn't have any more P800 in stock at this time. They both asked me to call back on Tuesday/Wednesday which is when they were expecting the new shipment.

Both indicated that they would only accept a wire transfer as payment from overseas (they claim to only accept Italian Credit Cards).

Both of these seem to have brick and mortar legitimate stores in Bari, Italy. Are there any Italians out there that could do some quick research and confirm that these are indeed legitimate stores.

thanks,

Kamil
