Its as good as no warranty. What is the guarantee that the seller will honor the said warranty ?

That's what I wanted to know. May be here know someone bought from ebay & know a good seller

Always good to buy a manufacturer's warranty phone, unless ofcourse you are getting the phone at more then 30-40 percent discount of the white market one. If it is more discount than that, its worth taking the risk.

Then its a no brainer !

Don't buy it from the eBay dealer as difference is just 3k buddy. You could also get it cheaper locally.

^Will check locally then

I don't think you will be able to get it cheaper than this http://deals.sulekha.com/sony-ericsson-wt19i-9516

A lot of people have purchased from sulekha and have had mixed reactions. Do check before ordering

My friend has a strict budget of about 10k & this phone is selling at about 10.5k. What are the risks of getting this phone without warranty ? Is there any way to get manufacturer warranty of the phone ??

There's no way you can get manufacturer's warranty on a handset without a proper bill. A dealer warranty is as good as no warranty.
