Hi Guys

Item: I'm selling my Sony Ericson s700i.

Firstly, i'll just explain what the history of the phone is, and the condition of it, then i'll explain the features, give links and pictures.

History/Condition:

Basically, the phone is less than 12 months old, so it still has warranty.

I bought this phone about 8 months ago. Back then, the rrp was about $1100 dollars. I'm not rich, but that was basically all of the money from my 21st bday. My family has always been pretty tight on money, so i was pretty poverty stricken in high school. i always had shit phones that people would laugh at, so I decided to splash out, and buy the best pimpest phone of the time.

Of course, since I bought the phone outright, it is unlocked.

Throughout the time i've had it, work has provided me with a work mobile. THat mobile was pretty nasty and ugly, so my phone was still my special phone. I only used it maybe 1 day a week on the weekend. At all other times, it was pretty much off.

About 3 months ago, work provided me with a new pda phone, so i haven't needed to use this phone.

All in all, it's only been used for a few days total as I only used it maybe one day a week. It has always been in a phone sock when it is used. I have never dropped it, never scratched it nothing. It is unblemished as if the box was just opened yesterday.

It includes everything - box, charger, phone, oringial lanyard, 64meg memory stick duo card. Charger and lanyard have never been used - My work phone is sony ericsson.

I am an honest person. Have a look at my rating to the left. This phone is most definitely not stolen.

Description of phone: Basically, this phone looks like a digital camera. In today's day and age where every phone is either a slide phone or a flip phone, this one is unique. It is a swivel phone. Everyone always comments on how nice my phone is when I bring it out.

In terms of features, of course, it has just about everything - mp3 ringtones, mp3 player, memory stick duo card slot, bluetooth, it plays videos, has a 1.3 megapixel camera that records videos, wap, internet browser.

The screen is massive. It's 320x240.

The most noteable feature of this phone, is the camera is a proper camera. Have a look at the review for sample pictures taken. Remember 1.3 mega pixel just means the resolution. That is, how many pixels by how many pixels. A shit phone might be 1.3 megapixels, but it might take 1.3 megapixels worth of crap. The review raves about how good the camera is, as well as all the other features.

Gsm arena have a review of the camera here - have a look at the image of the document taken - it's so clear:

Location: Sydney (postage around australia can be negotiated with price). As I said above, I am an honest person, ask any of the people who left me a feedback rating. If you're in sydney, come have a look, or if you're interstate, I can send it registered to make sure nothing is lost.

Contact details: Pm or call Chris on 0403 211 482.

Price: I know i'm not going to get anywhere near $1100 even though it is in as new condition. I'm looking for 400 give or take. Of course, if you wish to negotiate, pm me, or preferably call me, and we can arrange a price.

Cheers

Chris

oh shit i didnt think these were worth so much i sold one at $80 3 weeks back :laugh:

and they are only around 100 on ebay?

more information on the phone would be great help - please let me know

I am normally a fairly patient and understanding person. Chrisgtr, I've reported you to the admins for business trading. You're always offering people really low prices on phones and laptops, and selling them off later. You have admitted in numerous posts that that you are in the phone and computer business. You're obviously not interested in buying this since you just sold one.

There is one for sale in Ebay US:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NEW-UNLOCKED-SONY-E...1QQcmdZViewItem

Works out to be about 400-450 once you pay all taxes etc.

Also, on ebay australia, all current auctinos still have 4-5 days to go and they're already at $154.

i own my own company and have a fast turn over of laptops and phones - i do not have the time to try and sell each phone or laptop for what its worth - i just want to get rid of it. they are only worth as much as someone will want to pay.

after research - ive found that my price of $80 was fair - here are some COMPLETED listings from ebay australia

    • And finally, the front lower mount. It was doubly weird. Firstly, the lower mount is held in with a bracket that has 3 bolts (it also acts as the steering lock stop), and then a nut on the shock lower mount itself. So, remove the 3x 14mm head bolts , then the 17mm nut that holds the shock in. From there, you can't actually remove the shock from the lower mount bolt (took me a while to work that out....) Sadly I don't have a pic of the other side, but the swaybar mounts to the same bolt that holds the shock in. You need to push that swaybar mount/bolt back so the shock can be pulled out past the lower control arm.  In this pic you can see the bolt partly pushed back, but it had to go further than that to release the shock. Once the shock is out, putting the new one in is "reverse of disassembly". Put the top of the shock through at least one hole and put a nut on loosely to hold it in place. Put the lower end in place and push the swaybar mount / shock bolt back in place, then loosely attach the other 2 top nuts. Bolt the bracket back in place with the 14mm head bolts and finally put the nut onto the lower bolt. Done....you have new suspension on your v37!
    • And now to the front.  No pics of the 3 nuts holding the front struts on, they are easy to spot. Undo 2 and leave the closest one on loosely. Underneath we have to deal with the wiring again, but this time its worse because the plug is behind the guard liner. You'll have to decide how much of the guard liner to remove, I undid the lower liner's top, inside and lower clips, but didn't pull it full off the guard. Same issue undoing the plug as at the rear, you need to firmly push the release clip from below while equally firmly gripping the plug body and pulling it out of  the socket. I used my fancy electrical disconnect pliers to get in there There is also one clip for the wiring, unlike at the rear I could not get behind it so just had to lever it up and out.....not in great condition to re-use in future.
    • Onto the rear lower shock mount. It's worth starting with a decent degrease to remove 10+ years of road grime, and perhaps also spray a penetrating oil on the shock lower nut. Don't forget to include the shock wiring and plug in the clean.... Deal with the wiring first; you need to release 2 clips where the wiring goes into the bracket (use long nose pliers behind the bracket to compress the clip so you can reuse it), and the rubber mount slides out, then release the plug.  I found it very hard to unplug, from underneath you can compress the tab with a screwdriver or similar, and gently but firmly pull the plug out of the socket (regular pliers may help but don't put too much pressure on the plastic. The lower mount is straightforward, 17mm nut and you can pull the shock out. As I wasn't putting a standard shock back in, I gave the car side wiring socket a generous gob of dialectric grease to keep crap out in the future. Putting the new shock in is straightforward, feed it into at least 1 of the bolt holes at the top and reach around to put a nut on it to hold it up. Then put on the other 2 top nuts loosely and put the shock onto the lower mounting bolt (you may need to lift the hub a little if the new shock is shorter). Tighten the lower nut and 3 upper nuts and you are done. In my case the BC Racing shocks came assembled for the fronts, but the rears needed to re-use the factory strut tops. For that you need spring compressors to take the pressure off the top nut (they are compressed enough when the spring can move between the top and bottom spring seats. Then a 17mm ring spanner to undo the nut while using an 8mm open spanner to stop the shaft turning (or, if you are really lucky you might get it off with a rattle gun).
    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
