I am looking for accessories for my dream, as I am in Canada I don't want to be slapped with stupid duty fees which are inevitable when things come from the US. Does anyone know any good online stores that ship accessories from Canada. I don't really want to go the ebay route. I am looking for the HTC Headphone Adapter as the earphones that come with the phone are far to huge for my tiny little ears.
Thanks!
Amazone ship accessories to canada
I am looking for something that ships from Canada to Canada since its the duty that always sucks.
Anyone know if or when the Samsung Galaxy S 2 will be sold in stores in Hong Kong?
I'm going to be heading there next week and would love to pick up this beast!
The S2 will not be available until sometime in June. You could buy a UK version for about HKD$6300. But stocks are very limited.
I got mine last week and it's the Korea version S2.
order in expansys just HKD$5880
so it'll hit stores in June? I'm gonna be there till from beginning of June till end of July so hopefully I can pick one up there!
Purchased mine in Hong Kong last week from Expansys at $5880 also, no problems so far, when I spoke to them, these are actually UK Handsets they are getting shipped in from their UK warehouse but they do support full chinese symbology which is also great. They come debranded with the XEU firmware.
Is there an actual Expansys store in Hong Kong that I can purchase from? or do you have to order from them online? Thanks!

I've buy it for HKD $6180, at causeway bay (Germany version)
Was that the best price you could get it for, or like was it one of the only stores around that sold it? And when did you buy it also, cuz I'm wondering if any would have them in stock.
Just wondering do you live in hong kong? If so, you think sin tat plaza would have it for cheaper? And do you think it is reliable to buy from one of those vendors? E.g. I want to look out for buying a counterfeit/fake or a used one.
Also do vendors at sin tat plaza would buy a used phone from me?
now can buy
Might i ask where you can buy it? And say the range you'd get it for?
Would be nice if someone can recommend a shop which won't sell me a counterfeit or used one and has a good deal.

Soooooo, no one? Love it if I could get some more info.

I would not buy at Sin Tat. All those little shops look like crooks to me and that **** hole smells like smoke as sellers continue to smoke there even prohibited. It is basically to rip off the china mainlanders and women and foreigners that don't know they are paying for. Buy from a legit shop. There are plenty nowadays. As for the Galaxy S 2, they have the imported (grey market) ones now for about 6000hkd. I am personally waiting for it to arrive to CSL or 1010 carrier so I can renew my contract. If anyone else has more information on what stores they got theirs from, I would like to know too. Only place I saw is Citylink in MK.
Ah thanks, was afraid sin tat would be something like that since my cousin warned me of hk, just can't think of anywhere else to go.
Guess I'll try to check out citylink, I knew they'd all be grey marketed anyways but thanks for the info.
What's your estimate on how long it'll take from tin shui wai to mong kok from train, etc?
Kind of a stupid question, but any idea on how I may be able to tell if it's a legit shop? E.g In mong kok, are most shops legit? Or say like the shops in tourist shopping areas like causeway bay, kowloon city, etc, is it safe to say most shops there are legit?
Thanks man for the info, you've been most helpful.

Hong Kong version always is better because most are factory´s unlocked
As someone else stated before, you can get it from Expansys, but technically you can get that from most other countries as well. Expansys Hong Kong ships the UK without NFC version, which works on quadband 2G/3G. Very fast.
At the moment, it isn't out in Hong Kong yet, and yes - the local smaller vendors charge an arm and a leg for a total of $6300 HKD ish from the places I went. I only found it at Sin Tat.
Not sure if the ones they sell there are UK or Korean versions, but I heard the Korean versions run under Korean networks which means it's NOT quadband 2G/3G.
TIP: Check Settings -> About Phone - make sure it's not the Korean version.
I talked to Broadway and Fortress, but no one has any lead time for the Hong Kong versions of the phone. I just ended up buying the non-NFC UK version. I'm impatient (plus the non-NFC version is thinner).
I'm not sure, but the word online is the Hong Kong SGS II is going to be running on the Tegra 2. Of course, this is unconfirmed. No real retail store will give you any details (unless you got hook ups -- in that case, give me the juicy details too).
Xian da guang chang (Sin Tat Plaza) is a total rip-off stay away, also most of the little electrical shops on the golden mile in TST.
Buy from a large retailer such as PCCW, Fortune and eXpansys, dont get halled in by the small shops offering you one for 4kHKD to find out when you leave the box is empty, there are so many scams.
Thanks so much for the replies. I was thinking of ordering from expansys hk when i get there but im wondering how the mailing system works there, and how much taxes i have to pay, especially since im a visitor.
Also is it safe/profitable to sell an old phone at hk? Or like will the vendors buy?

Im trying to come up with a list of retailers that sell in Canada or will ship to Canada. So far i have:
Bestbuy
FutureShop
Memory Express
Staples
(Note Bestbuy and Futureshop canada are different than the US counterpart. The US stores do not want to ship cross border)
Any online sources that will ship to us Canadians?
Also note that the following do not have the transformer prime listed in their searches (as of 2011\12\31)
Newegg.ca
Gamestop.ca
amazon.ca

I wonder if there is a way that I can buy the jetstream in U.K ? Even in ebay (U.S), they are not happy sending this item to U.K

NO. No way. You can only buy when you live in U.S. or from ATT at a retail store. I bought mine in Florida at a Retail ATT store.
I bought 2 units on ebay US and had them sent to Israel, no problems at all, bought one for myself & and another one for a friend, just watch ebay for upcoming units & grab one for yourself.
Is there other websites to look at to get the Jetstream?
I cannot find. Only in US
I wonder if they would ever launch it outside of US =(
Hopefully there will be a Jetstream S or something that would be launched internationally =)

You can use shipito as a local address in the US. They ship it to you for a reasonable fee. You can check their prices on their website.
