Anyone looking to buy one of these phones? http://oneplus.net/uk


I have had one for a couple of months now and have received invites to share.
I will give an invite to whoever really wants to buy the phone - Sandstone black 64GB version £269 plus postage £4.99 RMSF or £9.99 DHL express but apparently they both deliver at the same speed , but you get better tracking with express. The phones are despatched from Heathrow/Southall area and the price includes VAT etc.

The Invite will need to be claimed within 24 hours and then you get 24 hours to actually buy it or it will expire.
Please only ask for it if you really want it - I don't want it going to waste.
 
If I wasn't stubborn enough to be waiting for a new Nexus I would be all over this !! Someone is going to be lucky and VERY good of you to be offering to fellow TP members (y), I appreciate fully how much of pain it is to get an invite !

I really don't get this. Are they trying to be super cool by restricting the supply of these? Just seems like a complete over hype.

What do the invitees get out of it?

I don't get anything other than the satisfaction of helping someone get a new phone. The main reason with the invites is to control the production, they don't want to over produce the phone and be left with them on the shelf. They build up stock then release invites, I waited two months to get my invite through the oneplus forums. (I have the same username over there if you want to check the forums out)
 
It really is a very good phone, Cyanogen installed and you are free to root and flash without voiding warranty :-)
 
Very tempted, reviewed well across the board. However I too have an addiction to Nexus' (Nexi?)
 
22 hours left to use this invite. Anyone?
 
yes please, how long do i have until the invite expires? i don't think i will need one right now, but would be nice to have in a month or so?
 
The invite has to be activated before it expires then you get 24 hours to buy the phone
 
Anyone on here claim the invite? showing claimed on my account but not who by!

Fair enough. Just smacks of a marketing ploy to get hype up to me personally.

Enjoy though :)

Bit of hype and a bit of not running out of stock I think. I get the impression they weren't in a position to move to huge volumes before they sold any, and they are selling a lot of hardware at a very low price. Makes more sense than taking peoples money then making them wait through an 8+ week lead time! A friend of mine has one and is very happy with it. I recently stuck cyanogenmod on my S3 and it's really rather good. I'll be looking at the possiblity of a 1+1 if my recurring rebooting issue doesn't fix itself...
