It is not a standard USB on the Nexus 5x! One of the new 'anyway' ones.

Looked at the negs for that seller, sure lots of positives but people are sending huge amounts of money, sometimes nearly 1000 euros, and their credit card protection is void if using a third party, like paypal. Very risky business. £9 at Tesco's for a Vodaphone Smart First suits me down to the ground.

I bought my Nexus 5X in the UK and have been without a phone for 2 and a half months dealing with LG's farcical warranty repair service!

It is not a UK/EU phone. It is sent from HK. God only knows if it is a used phone or refurb or even a fake. The warranty is not with LG, but with the seller. Read their warranty page to get an a idea of the hoops you need to jump through.
Reviews are awful despite a 7.4 rating. One of the reviews describes the awful warranty process as well. I would avoid like the plague. They are very similar to simply electronics, who again are awful. Not worth the paltry £25 saving in exchange for a whole lot of uncertainty and hassle.
sent from china or Hong Kong. used or possibly fake phones . non delivery. no communication etc etc
well worth saving a few quid lol

rather use an official UK phone instead of receiving a fake phone and charger with zero health and safety to UK standards testing. reported for spam.

LG/Google won't honour the warranty. you'll need to deal with the importer, who will happily deal with your claim for you, but you'll be without a phone for weeks. I speak from experience.
Won't have an EU warranty and LG are terrible with warranties as it is. Only warranty will be the 6m PayPal protection. After that, good luck.

But it's sent from the UK so it's not like you'll be hit with customs. Surely at worst you get a non-UK plug on the charger, but that's a standard USB thing anyway.

How does that make it an unfit product? You will get the phone within 7 working days . It's exactly the same phone with one year warranty and saving of £ 27 pounds. They are importers like most of other businesses
