Hi,
Don't really know ...
Everything looks right, but, after better check, sim tray says "made in finland" but usb tray don't fit perfectly, and has a little "made in china" written on it ...
N9 was deliverd in an opened nokia oem box, so perhaps usb tray has been replaced, perhaps something else, every doubt are allowed ... i'll never know.

I didn't sent back my opinion on ebays about herbetrade, my opinion will be neutral as they sent i rapidly, phone works fine but i doubt it's a real original new phone ...

Interesting. By the way, Amazon is selling direct (no 3rd party) for $546. It seems like all the ~$200 ones on Ebay and Amazon have been touched in one way or another. Maybe the higher priced direct Amazon one would be sealed box?

There are plenty of new N9s in Amazon around USD250, AFAIK: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...&condition=new

Why exactly do you need it to be "Amazon direct"?

Because all the ~$200 ones have been opened and tampered with, and they are selling as new. I have yet to see a sealed box N9

And even you will find a 'sealed' one, you need trust the seller!
A sticker is faked faster/easier as the other parts (like charger, earphones, etc.), or it is even 'original' chinese refurbish Nokia sticker ...

And this is from a Hong Kong seller? I've seen a few of them on eBay at some enticing prices, but I was still a little skeptical.

I'm in the market for a 64GB (Made in Finland) one really soon, and preferably in white, or cyan, or any color if I'm able to replace the housing myself.
