ZTE Blade aka Orange San Francisco aka Dell XCD35 / 100 GBP / Approx 8.5k in India

Re: ZTE Blade aka Orange San Francisco aka Dell XCD35 / 100 GBP / Approx 8.5k in Indi

I'm using Froyo from last 10 days. Used two ROM - Sebastian's and the Jellyfish. Faced the lockscreen freezing problem only once so far. Also battery life is pretty good with the Jellyfish ROM.

Received my phone 5 mins ago, paid Rs 193 as duty only..Yay....:clap:

BTW those who wondering that why shipping isnt being charged, it seems that first delivery must be included in the joining fee.

^ Congrats!! Btw was it a different phone? Duty amount seems to be higher.

No I don't think so, cause they called me the next day to collect the shipping charges.

Play.com seems to be a useless site. I looked up the phone, it showed available, once the CC details were entered it changed to awaiting stock. :(

Edit: canceled the order, hopefully they dint charge me by that time. they dint, thank god.

There was no Micro-SD card in my package, not in the phone, not in the box, checked everything. It should have been there and is mentioned on the box also.

But I don't mind. Many 2GB, 4GBs cards lying useless already. :p

Don't know what class Micro SD comes with the phones though.

Ya Play is useless. I placed an order and for almost 24 hours they didn't even process it, so cancelled it. :p Only worked for mgdelhi and lubu! :p

How come? Was your package opened during inspection or something? The 2 GB micro sd card is usually preinstalled. Raise an issue with Play.com! ;)

Yeah, my packet was opened. The box was re-packed with Aramex Tape. I am happy that the missing thing is just 2GB card.

I don't think it is worth the efforts taking up the matter with play.com and even if they deliver at UK address, then getting it to India is not worth it. :)

No, you are wrong. shipping is always charged extra. Its RsRs.507(460+ 10.3% service tax) if item weight is upto 500gms. they must have forgotten to collect it from you.

Further, the custom duty is 1.03% of assessed value. the reason everybody is getting charged differently because declared value of this phone differs. For example, they charged Rs. 254 Custom duty on one that I brought, because seller declared it at higher value.
