I have found a store in Vietnam which is very reputable and they do have 64GB Black in stock. and the price is the lowest I can find, its only US $701, as of today's exchange rate.

This is a confirmed reputable store, my gf is from vietnam and she knows the store personally.
She doesnot know anyone in the town who could just get the phone and ship it right now, but she is going back for xmas and will be back in January, so if anyone has any other contact in vietnam who can get it from the store and ship it will be great.

I pulled the trigger on a 64GB from whymobile.com (singapore). It came to 800 bucks including shipping to the US, insurance, and paypal fees. Best price I've found so far from a .com who will ship internationally, and a google search for reviews of the place say it's a brick and mortar with honest practices (haven't found a negative opinion at least). I'll confirm back if the transaction goes smoothly or not. I gave up on my principle$ and being patient, but will quickly forget all that if this goes smoothly.

only problem is they didn't say what color, but DID label the 16GB versiojn as blue so I'm hoping lack of explicit indication is black at least (and the pic was black). living dangerously (and doing mad-rationalizing) lol

gerbick, I'll keep my spot on your list until I know if I got burnt or not (or if you say it's time to ish or get off the pot on the group buy). Will let you know for sure either way.

awesome job with the why mobile. thanks for taking the plunge on that one, I am about to do the same in a few hours i think. I was debating, and wanting the 64gb, so looks like i will be jumping in with you.

well if we both get burnt, we can throw a kick-*** pity party for ourselves and any TMO girls who value "fast living" internet consumption over savvy and sane spending discretion.

Wow... more connections about where it can be bought from and at lower prices. Awesome.

There's some new announcements coming out very soon about where some 64gb Black one's will be coming out and the price and availability.

With that said... mine from Dubai will be here Wednesday 'cuz FedEx tracking says so...

Look into getting one from the Australia...

I bought mine from Australia, 64GB Black, it showed up asap. I know that I was happiest buying it from the AUS because I have a friend there and wanted the warranty to be active, to me it made sense to actually buy it from there.

Where are you located?

godofcookery | # 399 | 2011-10-24, 04:03 | Report

a specific store there that you can point us to?

I have a friend that can source them, buy them and have them shipped, that is if people are interested... They aren't cheap, but I can collect the funds, send them to him and of course, have you shipped your phone in the end, if that is what seems to be logical.

Edit: this is of course with his approval that he'd go through all this trouble...
