Oh

2018-04-13 22:38:50 UTC  

They need to update their site then

2018-04-13 22:41:02 UTC  

Is there a cheap and modern(ish) flip phone that exists? I know about the Japanese Sharp phones but they are really expensive. Cheapest I could find was around £250

2018-04-13 22:41:49 UTC  

I've been looking for one myself, the Sharp ones were the cheapest I could find

2018-04-13 22:43:46 UTC  

I really can't figure out why they are so expensive. Apart from maybe import taxes.

2018-04-13 22:44:11 UTC  

small demand

2018-04-13 22:44:24 UTC  

so, in turn, small supply

2018-04-13 22:44:29 UTC  

=expensive to make

2018-04-13 22:44:51 UTC  

that would be my guess, at least

2018-04-13 22:45:44 UTC  

Makes sense but I've heard that they're quite popular in China and Japan.

2018-04-13 22:46:50 UTC  

@Greytide samsung?

2018-04-13 22:47:01 UTC  

As long as they support 3G or 4G I'll be fine.

2018-04-13 22:47:18 UTC  

All CDMA towers were shut down in Canada iirc.

2018-04-13 22:47:30 UTC  

you can deff get them

2018-04-13 22:48:13 UTC  

this is gonna be your best bet

2018-04-13 22:48:14 UTC  

220

2018-04-13 22:48:19 UTC  

you can prob find it cheaper

2018-04-13 22:48:29 UTC

2018-04-13 22:48:32 UTC

2018-04-13 22:49:10 UTC  

That's actually quite good.

2018-04-13 22:49:16 UTC

2018-04-13 22:49:17 UTC

2018-04-13 22:49:32 UTC

2018-04-13 22:49:53 UTC  

only issue is the korean on the keypad

2018-04-13 22:50:18 UTC  

One thing I've noticed is that websites in Asia report lower prices.

2018-04-13 22:50:23 UTC  
2018-04-13 22:50:44 UTC  

They report a price around £160

2018-04-13 22:50:51 UTC  

ye listings on ebay are from ireland though

2018-04-13 22:50:55 UTC  

you avoid VAT and shipping fees

2018-04-13 22:51:23 UTC  

200

2018-04-13 22:51:33 UTC  

both from ireland

2018-04-13 22:52:37 UTC  

i doubt youll get done by customs if you do order one from china

2018-04-13 22:53:09 UTC  

Again, it's good value compared to other flip phones however overall it's pretty expensive, are there Asian sites that ship worldwide?

2018-04-13 22:53:53 UTC  

cant think of any

2018-04-13 22:53:57 UTC  

korean sites tend to be pretty closed off

2018-04-13 22:54:19 UTC

2018-04-13 22:55:24 UTC
