I recently bought a new phone on Ebay. Made sure the guy had good comments, and a lot of them too (He had over 400). Spent the most amount of money I have ever spent in one go (£270 ($531 USD, $615.26 CAD)). The guy sent the phone via Royal Mail. It was suppose to arrive today before 1PM.

I wake up early (Before 8am) to make sure I am awake and that ( Read more... )

why is this phone so special that it's worth £270?

Hm... Couldn't really point anything specifically out about it. Basically it's a smartphone (Part powerful PDA, part Mobile Phone). Here's a quick picture of the one I am (or was) getting: http://www.best-buy-mobile-phones.com/files/xda-exec.jpg... )

Oh and the actual original price is usually around £400.
I just got it for £270 because the one I was getting (from Ebay) was second hand and slightly damaged on one (or two?) corners. Haven't seen the damage yet, but from the description it sounded like a light graze. Whatever the damage is, as long as it works I will be happy (with £130 saved) ^_^

Cyko LIVES! XD. You're the only person from secondary school i'm still in contact with (barely XD). I used to have a lot of trouble with getting things delivered, when i was at my parents house and unemployed/took a day off, perhaps next time you could wait at the main entrance for the post if they are that lazy XD. Just hope it isnt cold. It's also possible the postman could have put the calling card through the main door if nobody answered that, and somebody chucked it away when they found it or "held on to it" for when they saw you or put it "somewhere you'd see it" which isnt obvious at all XD

aha! yes indeed ^_^
I don't post on LJ much, since whenever I do it's only to vent. I don't think anyone reads them very often either anyway =P

Yeah I could wait outside, but it's generally too cold that early in the morning. Plus it's pretty much a straight road all the way to my place, and then a corner. The block of flats is directly on this corner, thus it receives the full force of a sort of wind tunnel effect (My bedroom gets cold almost all the time). As for the calling card, the main door is magnetically locked, and dosn't have any gaps for anything to be posted through (nor is there a postal hole anywhere around it. Our postboxes are lined up along the wall outside in little containers which you use a specific numbered key for the specific numbered box). So they couldn't of put it inside the building. Anywhere except the postbox itself and it would get blown away. I think they simply failed to do anything with it =/
Oh well, more information on that. Time for an update.
