where to buy from?

Rudeboy1 · 5 May 2015 at 23:19

Hello,

ive decided on getting a Samsung galaxy S5 Sim free, wheres a good place to buy from? i see some websites selling this for around £270 and then other places £370 and some websites have 4g versions or 3g versions? i just want to find a trustworthy website at a good price and obviously the top model of the 16gb s5.

thanks

Anywhere that gives you maximum cashback through quidco or topcashback

Oh and not from any site that delivers from HK. Read up on sites before purchase. Vodafone were selling the s5 with a sim for £280 few weeks back. Not so at moment unfortunately.

I was wondering this too as I wish to buy my sister an S4/S5 for her birthday coming up. I'm not sure if these ebay places are safe. I was told to look at the ones sold by the rainforest? Prices are quite high there though

From reading recent feedback on that ebay seller sounds dodgy as ****

Rudeboy1 · 5 May 2015 at 23:41

feedback doesnt look that bad?

Mentions of fake phone
Calling Samsung to say not a UK phone
No phone to deliver and slow refunds

I've never bought or sold a phone on eBay and I know why.

Go through Quidco, £27 cashback & choose the £5 3G Goody Bag, activate the sim on arrival, use or give away (check account settings so you're not setup for automatic renewal, its only a PAYG SIM, no contract involved) and then just use the SIM of your choice

Or you could try Smartfonestore

I'd be wary of anywhere that doesn't know how to spell the word "phone"

Yep because Vodafone are a right bunch of scam artists.

I like higher than 99.5% but only really feel safe at 100% especially for a high value item.
