black N9 64gb UK for sale
 
3 Attachment(s)
Finland made. UK handset, unlocked.

I have the box and the headphones, the UK to EU adapter. I dont seem to have the cable, or the plug. I will keep hunting for them.

I have just now wiped and reflashed it back to stock.

3 hard cases (blue, pink, white) and the black gel case.

It is in beautiful condition - maybe only one or two tiny scrapes on the screen, but a protector and a hard case on it at all times.

Silver bit on the back is a bit scuffed up. The USB door got bent one time, but it still works perfectly.

None of the black is peeling anywhere, there are no dings, dents or anything else. It really is in beautiful nick.

Make me an offer. Birmingham, UK.

I can take more photos later.

I paid £285 for it in September last year. TBH, i think 100 euros is a bit cheeky, its a 64gb model...

Ok, was just testing the waters with that:-)
But you do realize that the prizes have come down a lot since September right? On amazon.com 64gb N9 is just $240. And those include warranty. So my final offer will be below that if you're still interested.

Hi,
I'm looking to pick up an N9 (a friend has the same model) and came across this yesterday.

Would it be possible to get a picture of the bit that you say got bent?

Which cable is missing, the USB one?

How long does the battery last for you?

Could I ask why you are selling this?

240 dollars for a new N9 seems cheap to be fair but are they genuine?

Cheers,
Crocked

Well I am selling cos I am tired of having to use two devices (n9, nexus 7) when the samsung galaxy s3 meets all my needs, although the camera is under par a bit...

I have taken more photos, w the samsung. If I need to break out the canon 7D when I get home, then I will.

Battery lasts a day of decent usage on EE network. Yes its the usb cable I cant find. I remember it didnt have a charger with it when I bought it.

I was looking for near to 200 quid.

Hi,
would you accept £180?

I live in Switzerland so obviously I would pay postage on top of this as well. If sending to Switzerland I have a friend in England that you could send to as well if this is a problem for you.

I can't send a pm for some reason. Is it because my account is new?
Cheers,
Crocked

Yes happily take 180.

Why woudn't they be? Also you have buyer protection on amazon I think. I never ordered one though. But I may do, my n900 is giving me mic problems now on top of broken usb. But you can have a look on their website. The N9 has come down a lot the last few months.

It could be genuine of course but they won't ship to Europe directly (or at least not through amazon marketplace) so you would need to get some friend or intermediary service to send it on and if it wasn't genuine I can only assume this would be again more hassle which is why second hand route is fine for me.

I assume there is only one model so the american phones would also work in europe.

The other reason I was a bit sceptical is there are a huge number of fake N9 phones on ebay and I would imagine that there cannot be that many new phones left at this stage.

However I'm not sure if Amazon will cover marketplace in all cases which is uderstandable from a business point of view.

"We will ultimately determine material difference at our discretion."

However to be fair I've used Amazon for years and the one time there was an issue they resent it without problems but with marketplace I must say I haven't had bad experiences so far touch wood.

I had a look at the offer from wireless everything and I must admit it seems above board on first glance at least. The only strange thing is that the price is 200 dollars more on their own website. If you do go down that road it would be interesting to know if it's genuine as I have a friend who has an N9 but he said the battery is no longer what it was and he's afraid it will break when he tries to replace the battery and may consider picking up second one as a spare while they are still available.

Some do ship to europe. Or at least they have International Shipping they say. Never ordered my self though.

Correct. N9 was only one gsm version. Also it was not sold through american carriers, so it is safe to assume those are "international versions" (works on all networks except the rare frequencies American carriers use).

I also noticed the fake ones on eBay. But generally Amazon (marketplace) is considered safer. But I have to say not all sellers are ok, you have to be careful with the smaller shops mostly.

Hmm, I always thought it as covered. I should look in to it. Thanks for this info.
But it is too bad most rare phones and electronic devices like N9, 808 or N900 are mosty sold through Amazon marketplace and other private or small time sellers. Not through Amazon themselves or other big name shops.

Why would it break? It is openable and not (supposed to be ) glued shut.

I just this weekend ordered one from a german shop. Will arrive this week I hope. I can let you know how it turns out if you want.
