I want to purchase 2 mobile phones, they retail for 339 gbp each here but can be had in the US for 390 gbp for both!
I plan on using a personal shopper service to buy and get the items delivered to a US address and then forward them onto me. There would be fees for this but probably work out about 50-60 gbp.
Cons are there is no guarantee on the handsets when you take them out the region and they won't work with 4G here.
I'm not too fussed about 4gG as my sim omly contract doesn't allow it and I get by with 3G between home and work.
With regards to the lack of warranty I could use insurance against at least one of the handsets and then just be hopeful that there's no more shoddy build quality.
Does anyone see or forsee anything wrong in my quest for savings?
