advice needed on buying phone...

hi - i want to buy a nokia N series phone and was browsing ebay recently and i noticed some people selling links to sites which sell these phones at wholesale prices. i just wanted to know if this is true or just another scam, because some of the BIN prices for the links were in excess of £30.
ive tried doing my own research to find these sites (if they exist) without any luck so far. any help or advice appreciated!

I'm no expert but I'd say it's a con. If there were bargains to be had you'd find them on this site for free..0

It's not worth it
These will just be outdated links to wholesalers or links to websites where if you sign X amount of people up you get a free or discounted phone.
If there were such sites to get a phone for a cheap price then why is the person no just buying the phones him/herself and selling them on eBay?
Surely there is more demand for mobile phones then links to the phones?!
If you want wholesalers get a trade magazine from your local large newsagent, e.g 'Trader' magazine or similar.If freedom is outlawed, only outlaws will have freedom.0 -
Con, con, con. They probably bid on their own auctions to make them seem more interesting.0

If they could actually buy a Nokia phone for 99p then why not buy all the stock themselves and sell them on fleabay for more?
Answer - they can't and its a scam...0
