I bought my HP PDA at Funan IT [email protected] $490..though i feel that SLS might sell cheaper, but i just wanna have some sense of security as it's more reliable n trustworthy.... Laughing

The cheapest I can find in Sim Lim Square (I hope Im right..)
Spent hrs running up and down just hope to get the lowest price..
Btw, highest price for an iPod nano 2GB Ive encountered is $348..
While the lowest is $289 (there might be shops which sell at a lower price)..
Thats almost $60 difference..

[b]Rem, always said this to the sales person..
Lower down the price lah.. Laughing [/b]

Well, yes, I understand your sense of security. I sometimes rather pay a higher price for certain things too.

However, the XDA IIs I bought is an exception. My first XDA II (the old model) was bought from Starhub's showroom downtown, damn thing costs me well over $1200, and it gave me one year of frustration and high blood pressure!

Now, this new XDA IIs from Sim Lim at $845 works like a dream, and has so far not given me any nonsense at all! I'm just so delighted still!!

heheheee... Laughing

Then you heng lor... Laughing
But i once heard from my fren that some hp shops actually refurbished the "Traded-In" phones n seal them in nicely done-up boxes n sell to consumers...

They still look very nice as though they're fresh from the factory...

yeh loe that's why so many ppl buyin in second handphone where they go? if u want stuff withh warranty more expensive...some shops at SLS u can trust they giv u warranty voluntarily...though some promise 1-1 exchange within a month i dun trust that...Challenger at Funan gives warranty...and can at least guarantee the goods are not second hand refurnish ones.

which also brings back some memories...Dell used to seel very cheap laptops over at the U.S. However they openly declared that their units are refurnished at that moment in time. i still have a copy of the magazine that advertised that

I know refurbishing and bosx sealing can be imitated, but how do they get around the IMEI number? It's encoded in the ROM! Hardwired IC chipped!

Even if it is a previously-owned unit, registering its IMEI at O2 website will reveal the truth!
