WTS: Nokia N810 Brand New Condition - $150 Free Shipping
 
Hi all,

This looks like an awesome community, and one in which I really wish I could get involved. Unfortunately some circumstances beyond my control have forced me to liquidate several items I have. I received a mint 810 in partial trade for a BlackBerry (I am an active member of CrackBerry.com under the same username, eakeller) and it looks perfect and works perfect.

I really wish I could keep it but as I said I cannot. This N810 tablet was used about 10 times since it was purchased, and since the owner received a BlackBerry shortly after, he almost never took it out of the box. I've enclosed photos below, please let me know if you have any questions - I would be happy to answer.

I know I am new to this forum, but I am not new to doing great transactions on the net. Please check out my feedback at crackberry, and on eBay with 450+ positive transactions. I can ship USPS on the same day or by the next day at the latest, carefully packed and insured to CONUS for free, or worldwide for actual shipping cost. Payment is via PayPal, please.

Thanks a lot for looking, and let me know if you have any questions!

Sincerely,
-Eric

PS. I check my email/messages mainly from work during Pacific Time (GMT-7), so if you send me something in the evening, I may not be able to get back to you until the next day. Thanks!

How much does it cost to ship it to Romania?

Looks like it would be about 40 USD (28.4 EUR) to ship to Romania via USPS Priority Mail (6-10 days).

I think it's around $2 US per pound (plus taxes).

$2/lb? To Romania?! I seriously hope you meant to type $20/lb! Super-easy to verify, just head over to www.usps.com and check the rates. The N810 box is probably about 3lbs (it's at home so I can't weigh it at the moment), so that's what I used for my estimated weight.

There are alternatives to USPS, especially when speed of delivery isn't an issue:

Thanks for the link Tim, but please read a bit further in your own link. Add the "Additional Mandatory Charges" of $10/package (Handling & Insurance), $6.50/package (Airport / Port Security Taxes) and 0.20 EU/kg (Possible Handling Fees in Romania). Read some more and you'll find out I'd have to ship the thing to NY in order to have them ship it to Romania. That's about another $6 minimum. Add it all up and you'll come up with quite a bit more than two bucks a pound.

If you read some more of the page you'll also see they don't ship batteries, so that would have to be removed from the package, drastically dropping its value. Kinda pointless, eh?

For the record, as it seems I must make this absolutely clear, I will only ship internationally via USPS Priority Mail or Express Mail International.

Thanks for the interest.

I saw the other charges (but they're not the only other shipping company), but I didn't see the "no battery" clause. Thanks for that. (Dynamite shipping does that too.) :(

Yeah, kinda sucks that it costs forty bucks to stick a tiny box on a boat, but I guess that's just about the way it is. :) Still, if you can find a US retailer who ships to the EU for $40, I would be _really_ surprised!

Qole, how about splitting shipping to Canada? Meet me halfway and we'll seal it up right now! I think it's about $10/ea. for Priority. If I'm wrong on the low end I'll refund the difference, if it costs more I'll eat the difference.

I'm glad you tried to negotiate, that was an impulse statement that I would have felt obligated to follow through on if you had said, "Sold!"

When I started thinking about it, I realized I should not buy another tablet right now (I have two N800s already, but I wanted the better screen and the keyboard). My wife would not be happy about it....

Hi eakeller,

I like your item. I live in Fort Lauderdale, FL.
If Qole doesn't work out.
Let me know

Nor would my wife be thrilled had I said "Sold!", so it looks to be all good. :cool:

Masterlocke, you're up next! Hit me up on email if you would like and we can discuss details.

I just sent an email to your maemo email address; did you check there? If it didn't show, just click on my username, and in the drop-down box it will allow you to send me an email directly.

I've got it.

Thanks to all for the interest! Masterlocke won the race, payment received and the tablet will be out the door in the AM.

Thanks again for all the discussion; I guess we didn't have to worry about how to get it to Romania _or_ Canada! :D

Hello Eric,

I am interested in buying your Nokia N 810 tablet.

I am in Rio de Janeiro today, Wed. July 1st, but I will be in N.Y. on July 8th, next Wed.

If you could wait until then to sell your Nokia, I would be much obliged to you. What I don't know for sure is how we would be able to complete this transaction safely for us both.

Do you have any suggestions?

You could maybe contact me at

macmacbrito@yahoo.com

for us to speed up our communication process (since I do not always come to this forum).

Thank you!

Best wishes,
macbrito.
