Does anyone know whether you would have to pay import VAT on goods from eglobal? If you have to add extra 20% on top of the listed price then you can defo get it cheaper elsewhere.

"17. Import, VAT & Customs
17.1 To simplify the process of buying internationally, eglobal central choose to handle the process of custom clearance for customers. By purchasing products through eglobal central, you authorise eglobal central to make arrangements for clearance of customs on your behalf for the products in your order. As importing products from overseas can be a hassle for most of our customers, we organise this process for you. We then provide you with fast local shipping to deliver the goods to your door. As a result, prices shown on this website are the final total you have to pay to have the order delivered to your door, without any hidden charges and customs delay.
17.2 After 3 month of receiving the goods and clearing customs, eGlobal Central will not be held responsible for any custom related fees."

Anyone know if this is an EU model? Samsung won't honour warranty with devices from UAE, Hong Kong, etc.

Its definitely gonna be non EU Spec. So no warranty with Samsung but will be honoured by the retailer.

Mmmm buy flight to Hong Kong (for the repair) or chuck in the bin? Which will be cheaper - definitely a toss up :thinking:

Your first port of call with any warranty issue is with the seller, they will then take it up with the relevant Samsung service centre for the area that it was supplied from. This is not to say that you will get satisfaction from Samsung as they have several carefully worded responses that enable them to void the warranty, such as water ingress, unauthorised removal of a part. Having said that I have never had a problem with a Samsung phone or smart watch.

The seller is in Hong Kong. Samsung UK won't entertain a warranty claim on a non-European model. Might as well buy a Xiaomi or something.

Is it duel active or duel standby sims?

Your question is answered by clicking the link, and reading the specification list.

Thanks,
it wasn't that, I hadn't realised it was automatically selecting insured delivery. Which has an additional charge.
