Sim Unlocked Orange San Francisco Android 2.1 Mobile Phone with 2gb MicroSD card

[pooface]

Hi guys.

Have the above phone for sale. Only selling it, as I bought it as an interim phone as my old phone had been taken away by repair, and was unrepairable, so I got the money to buy a new one. Was waiting for the Desire Z phone, which I have now... So, this is for sale.

The phone has been kept in a leather slip case (the HTC slip case was originally designed for the Desire, but this phone fitted it fine. Was slightly on the loose side, but worked no problems. I am now using the slip case with the Desire Z though, so is not included...

Phone comes with a 2gb Verbatim MicroSD card. Has been fitted with a screen protector from day 1 (they were originally for another phone, think it was a Samsung i900 or something like that, can't remember, but they fit it virtually perfectly). The screen protector has a few scrapes from usual use, but this can be taken off, and a new one put on. Have another 2 I can include with it...

The phone was sim unlocked, clockwork modded and rooted and custom rom installed straight away. I can provide it with the clockwork mod and a custom rom if you so wish, otherwise, I can reinstall as it would originally have come, just sim unlocked.

The battery has been well conditioned, and I had been receiving 1 day easily with quite a bit of usage. With less usage, 2 days were easily achieved. Yes, doesn't sound like a lot of battery life, but some people have been saying that they were only receiving half a day with little usage, this is because they didn't condition the battery! Anyone who owns a smartphone will know, they do not last long... Am currently lucky to get a full day with my Desire Z at the minute! lol.

Here are the specs:



Here are some pictures:




Any questions, just ask. Am looking for £90 + postage (or free collection in Midlands area).

Cheers

Hey mate..

How about 75 plus postage?

[pooface]

Cheers.

Noticed you only registered yesterday though. Also, where would postage be to? How would you be looking to make payment, as ideally I would be after a bank transfer...

[Tzimakos]

Yes mate i registered because I'm especially looking for this very phone..

I'm from Greece and the stores here only have the zte blade, which is a san francisco, but with an lcd screen instead of Amoled and 256mb ram instead of 512.. Thats why i want to get a san francisco..

Postage would be to Athens Greece and Paypal is the preferred way so both me and you are protected..

Cheers, Jim

OK, well I'd have to take a look at the best method to send the phone to greece. Would imagine that'd add about £15 on to it though. Also, was looking at Bank Transfer, as could do with the money in bank account, not paypal account, as doesn't paypal take quite a chunk of the payment if you transfer it to your bank account?

Plus, would prefer to hold on for closer to the asking for a little while... Thanks though.

[Tzimakos]

I'm ok with paying the whole 15 quid for postage myself.. I want to pay via paypal because i have lost money before by paying for a laptop without the laptop getting to me, because i didn't use a secure payment method, so im extremely concerned about that.. No offense, I'm sure you're alright..

[pooface]

As I said, I'll leave it a little longer to think over as I want a little closer to asking...

[Tzimakos]

Ok mate, but if you change your mind any time soon i'll take it in a flash.. I really want this phone..

Also can you compare the quality and blacks of its screen with galaxy s or iphone 4 and tell me how its doing?

[Tzimakos]

You can also keep the 2gb sd card if that can help my offer..

not paypal account, as doesn't paypal take quite a chunk of the payment if you transfer it to your bank account?

Not at all M8, I use PayPal all the time and it costs NOTHING the trasnfer to you bank account (ie FREE ) BUT PayPal do charge YOU for receiving money from poeple but this can be got around by the seller sending the payment as a gift that way the BUYER pays the PayPal charge.

Ok mate, but if you change your mind any time soon i'll take it in a flash.. I really want this phone..

Also can you compare the quality and blacks of its screen with galaxy s or iphone 4 and tell me how its doing?

I don't have an iphone 4 or galaxy s... Only other phones I have that I could compare with is the Desire Z (SLCD screen) and Nokia N95 8gb...

Also, don't really have any use for the 2gb microsd, as I changed it over with 8gb I had in the old phone... Will keep it as a spare in case I need for something if you don't want, but it won't help in regards to price

Also, please keep all communication to the thread, no pming me!

In regards to receipt and age of phone, I think I have the receipt still, but wouldn't help in regards to warranty, as you're not in the country, so wouldn't have thought be any good? But as said, think I still have it... In regards to the age, I bought it at the beginning of October (around 9th I think it was)...

[Tzimakos]

how does the screen compare to desire z's screen in terms of black levels and picture guality?

I only used pm to be sure you're reading my on thread replies, I'm sorry I won't do it again..

If the rom is located in the on-board memory, feel free to keep the sd, i don't mind..

Again, i want this phone, that's why im giving up on all these little things, mate..

Cheers

I am getting the messages mate. Have email subscription to this, which notifies me straight to my gmail account, which comes straight through to my phone... If I don't reply straight away, don't worry... I might just be coming on the site to check something out in terms of the team image, and don't have time to reply straight to this, but will come back to it later...

Anyway, as I said, I'll wait a bit to see if anyone will offer closer to asking.

Also, just looking on the paypal site, and looks like it's gonna cost me £5 just to withdrawal the money to my bank account:

https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-withdrawal-fees-outside

Then, there's the around £4 for me to receive the payment (since, as far as I know, unless this is sent as a paypal gift, I have to pay 3.4%).

So, I'd be looking at loosing around £8-£9 just for you to pay by paypal... So looking at it like that, then I'd rather not go ahead with the sale as I'd be loosing too much...

@ Poo, withdrawal's over £50 are free to a bank account.
