^ The duty is Rs 82 and there will be broker fee of Rs 50. Total 132.
The shipping charge they forget to collect for everyone! Lol In my case, they usually call the next day and send someone to collect it.
You can pay directly by Bank Transfer too if you want. Check with them on how to do that.

Oh man, the shop and ship business will run on loss if they do this. And they might close shop, thus taking out our best option

Borderlinx is nice in that respect, they just inform you and billl your credit card on file.

With Dell dropping the prices of Dell streak to 400USD, I think that would be next best thing to order after ZTE Blade. I'm sure that within a month or two Dell XCD35 prices will stabilize around Rs. 12k mark in India.

Seems this is the first time they are collecting the shipping charge on delivery!
Unlock Code -- Free Instant Unlock Codes for Alcatel, Huawei Modems & ZTE Mobile Phones
Settings --> About Phone --> If the build number is ending with 05 then it is AMOLED.

In my account the shipping charge is shown as Rs.460 - there will be coustoms in addition to that - so total charges should come out around 600 I suppose.

19/Dec: Installing the MoDaCo Custom ROM from scratch (and other ROMS) - Android @ MoDaCo
Choose the ROM you want. The Froyo has a few bugs still.
First use it with the stock rom for 2-3 days and make sure everything is working the way it should.madnav said:

Some people paying more for shipping, some less, why so ??
Also now can we order from prepay mania UK without the risk of order cancellation ??
If not then what other option does one have for best deal ?

^
Some people had their package 0.4x kg in weight, some had 0.5x kg, so they had to bear cost of additional 0.5kg which is $8.
Don't take risk with prepaymania, as you'll lose money for conversion if they cancel.
Try on ebay and in 2-3 days, prices must come down, after Christmas to almost the same level as prepaymania, ~110 GBP.
