What to do with my Motorola K1?

quahhy

I was so excited when I discovered CPW was doing a special promotion on Motorola Krzr K1 Vodafone PAYG for only £129.99 when purchased with a £20 topup that I bought it immediately when I saw it in the shops! I was thinking of selling it brand new and unused on Ebay, thinking that it will sell for about £200 or more. But when I checked Ebay today, K1 is being sold for only £170 max! A far cry from the £200 I saw earlier. It must be the coming of Rizr that dampens the demand for Krzr.... oh what should I do now?

Stick it on ebay BIN £199 the cpw prices have went upto £235 now so still a saving for someone.

The laws of supply and demand... most of the K1's going for under £200 on eBay will have been the £150 ones from CPW. Now you can't get them for the price the eBay price might well go back up. Having said that... I orderd a K1 for £150 last Friday (for personal use) and it's still only showing as order received... CPW = muppets!

Someon I know who sells on ebay tells me that you just need to wait until those who have made 50p on the deal have sold theirs and the price will go back up.

CPW is having the Motorola K1 @ £129.99 Weekend again this weekend ending Sunday 26 Nov 2006. It is on Vodafone PAYG with a £20 topup if paying by credit/debit card or £30 topup if paying by cash. Saw the advertisement in Manchester's Metro free newspaper this morning.

Looks like the price of K1 will not go up for some time now...

Ebay have a 15p listing day on 28th Nov, so you don't have much too lose by putting it on a Buy it Now for the price you want, it might well sell as its coming up to Crimbo.

Anyone know whether it'll be unlocked? Or will it have the Vodafone software on it?

I haven't received the one I ordered on the 17th yet, so no idea why they're doing this!

Same thing happened to me, sat there at order received status, didn't move to processed (ordered on 15th)

So I rang them Thursday, it arrived next day (Friday). You need to give them a call or you won't get it.
