    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    There is no option for sellers on Ebay to leave neg. feedback for buyers. :P They can only report unpaid item.What action Ebay takes varies from case to case. For example, 0 feedback ebayers are shown the door immediately upon a couple of unpaid item. However they are more lenient and are...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    OMG :O *Gulp* I escaped with less charges then. I had to pay Rs 913 (Aramex) + 954 (Customs) = Rs.1867 for the sealed Vibrant. :P

    Congrats, Bro. :D Enjoy the new phone. Btw, one of my friends in US got this phone, and he says the real life performance is not as good as it sounds and looks on paper. Yes, after using the SAMOLED, its hard to go back to a normal LCD as I feel so too after using my Fascinate and now the...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    Umm, could be, but the phone box has "Samsung Vibrant" mentioned boldly. Imo, custom officials (Babus) wont be so technologically updated to know that it is the same phone as the Galaxy S sold here, or that it should be valued at the same rate as the SGS sold here. But I could be underestimating...

    :O :O :O *gulp* Imo, you will get a refund for sure. She had asked me to send the paypal receipt too to confirm the price of the new Vibrant. But in any case, as per the current calculation, you will have to pay Rs.781~ as customs charges for your phone valued at $265. :no: Add to that Aramex...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    ^I agree. I argued about the exorbitant custom charges of Rs. 954 on my new Vibrant, but Anuradha asked me to pay whatever charges are mentioned to the delivery boy, and that they will resolve the matter later and reimburse if there is any discrepancy. Anyways, I paid the money, and later on...

    US Deal : Nokia N8 Green for USD 329.99 (actual USD 499.99) at Dell + Free Shipping

    Re: US Deal : Nokia N8 Green for USD 329.99 (actual USD 499.99) at Dell + Free Shippi Imo, not worth it anymore, considering the increase in import duty on phones, plus the shipping charges definitely will be $18 through Aramex. It'll cost you around Rs.1900 over the price of the phone to get...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    Could you please elaborate a bit more on that terminal emulator? Or maybe a link to where the whole procedure is given? I have the same issue with the used Vibrant. It was upgraded to 2.2 by the seller. No unlocking method is working on it for me. I am going to downgrade it to stock 2.1 rom and...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    Well, apparently the sealed one was charged more then. The used/opened one came duty free. :P Btw, the used one is in near brand new condition. Now a single scratch anywhere. The seller even sent an extra new battery and a 16 gb sdcard along with the original 2 gb. I wish I had never bought...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    ^ It was sealed before it reached here. The Ebay seller from whom I bought is a platinum seller, and he assured me that it was sealed. So I wouldnt really doubt what he said. But yes, it was opened by the custom officials here. I spoke to Anuradha and she agreed that custom officials opened the...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    Yes..:( It didnt quite turn out to be a bargain. Although I'm still happy that I got a Super AMOLED display and a better GPU for the local price of the new crappy Galaxy SL. I can only console myself by considering that the 1 week used Vibrant came duty free. So it kind of evened out. Although...

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    Just spoke to Anuradha and she says the new import duty rates (5.3%) are already enforced from March 1st. :| So thats the reason for the Rs.954 duty. :/ First Paypal, now this..I'm so damn pi$$ed off at this moronic government. :/

    Samsung Captivate aka Galaxy S at 21K !

    I bought 2 Vibrants off ebay.com. One was slightly used for a week and one was sealed. The used one came duty free with shipping charges of 18USD (calculated to Rs.913 by Aramex. Dont know what conversion rate are they using :s ) And the new one was slapped a duty of Rs.954. WTH?? :s I ended...
