it's around 630$ also on AliExpress. Add 15% and that's 730$. So maybe the remaining are a bit of profit and the hassle he went through. Not so expensive but goddamit I think I would take a note 9 over this for that price.
I used to pay that much for smartphones but in recent years, especially that I have a wife and kids, I feel 600$ is the absolute max I would pay for a phone.
That's because you're paying for VAT twice ( importing country and Lebanon )

I am exactly like you. I only paid $150 out of pocket. Rest was money I made by selling my iPhone 8 Plus.

Sell to buy pay the minimum you can.
Damn the 6T doesn't have an SD card slot, I will have to wait for the S10 then

If you take 10, 000 pictures a day and store your entire movie library on the phone then Yeah 6t ain't for you.

I just use Twitter and WhatsApp and some needed files can't fill 64gb let alone 128gb
I use the SD card for backup and restore not for photos, it's extremely useful when changing phones

I agree there. But I prefer Stock / Close to Stock AOSP phones so I forgive them if they don't add SD card I use Android HandShaker and AFT to backup files to PC/Mac.

There's always a workaround. Just my honest opinion.

I guess if we get xposed on Pie, which seems not possible... maybe IMEI changer module would help to bypass that messy rule.

IMEI changer on xposed change the imei graphically to hide it from other apps on the phone

So anyone bought from the olx dude?
Is it legit when he says it's with customs paid?
I wouldnt buy a sealed box phone from someone without a store at least, or someone reputable, because you can only tell if its customs is paid by putting a SIM in

This dude (Hisham) does delivery and you can try the phone before paying, though if no problems were found you will have to pay because you opened the box

Do you have a number, or a link? Can come in handy

He also has the Mc Laren edition
There are rumors the new law on customs will be abandoned, anyone has info?
I think I am gonna crack and get a 6T, the only negative thing is that it doesn't have a local warranty, if any hardware problem occur I will have to sent it away for X weeks, if the seller gives a week to return it a la Phonefinity in case of malfunction then ok, nowadays hardware problems show out of the box
infiniteloop wroteThere are rumors the new law on customs will be abandoned, anyone has info?
I hope so, but no info about it
Finally got a 6T from Hisham
what a blazing fast and furious phone!!
The battery is amazing too
Everything is super stable
Can't wait to root it
