Why would you guys buy from tmall.....

There is a local seller selling the 32GB version for 399 for white , 409 for the gold...on qoo10. I placed ordered this morning and collect it at the store at Simlim...

Sealed set with China rom....to me it's cheaper than tmall....

But one thing cock up is, I ordered white and they give me a gold one, go Ho,e open the box then I realised...go back to the store, need to wait for the new stock to come in on Thursday...

But price wise they are the best Liao....

It's really interesting how these local sellers can sell cheaper than xiaomi China... When buying from them, only worry is if it's really new

not nice to expose, shop does this for a living. They flashes it to that rom because it caters more to the locals, rather to give them a china rom.

only feel bad for those who have little knowledge to flash the rom, and have to deal with the malware.

I simply can't understand your logic. That bugger is selling malware infected phone to novice consumers and you're defending him, citing doing it for a living???

Guess you will defend a robber cos he need the money out even a rapist cos he need the sexual satisfaction. *** FACEPALM

64 - $555
128 - $730

before any discounts or coupons, still worth to buy from tmall?

You should reveal the shop's name, so that people who got conned by them will know that they got a malware-infected product or avoid buying such a phone from this unethical merchant.
