$4600 Vertu Nurburgring Titanium phone turns up on eBay

At the end of the day , a phone is just a phone.

id rather buy 10 iphone 3g's on ebay then blow my cash on that.I mean how hard is it to scratch the nurburgring track into the back of an iphone???

wow.. you are comparing vertu to iphone? Its like comparing F430 to Corvette. Vertu is a phone of luxury, of course you are not gonna buy this. If you had money for F430, would you buy F430 or 3 Corvettes? I bet F430, case closed.

The price looks pretty real to me, the top corner of the leather is scratched so there is a decent $ off the price of it new. Also 4600$ is decent and what it would sell for, you can buy the lowest model of vertu new for 4999$. It would be fairly easy to verify, take the imei # and the unit # and go to a vertu boutique or even just email them and see if the two match. If the Imei is not registered to that model/serial # then its a fake. To me it looks like a really good fake, on the outside it looks real, but inside the behind the battery there is no way it would look that messy, my 1200$ N97 looks 10x better inside the case.

Oh and the guy is asian, i can tell by his somewhat feminine hands and finger nails. So i wouldn't trust him that that phone is real, especially when he is willing to do all that stuff for free, like come down and hand deliver it, go to a boutique with you, that's all worth time and $ off of his already half priced vertu. And no person that has 8000$ to spend on a phone would be that desperate to sell it, his time flying and hand delivering the phone would be worth more than 4600$. I say fake. Wouldn't be very hard for those guys in china to buy 1 vertu, and duplicate it 100x, same serial # and imei, it would show up as real when you go check it at the store, they dont keep track of how many times someone has asked about that particular phone, and it would show that it has been sold.

The specs of this phone are compared to a 100$ nokia, except the material of the casing. Pure show off piece of junk.

What's its 0-60 time? I wonder if they'll make a convertible version.

Why spend so much on a freakin' phone? I don't get it.

this is already an old vertu. it is not even worth $4600....

guys heads up.. this is a 100% fake vertu for many resons firsly is that i got the real one and the box is not like that it's waaay diffrent and also the leather at the back i mean good god look at it .. it's no way near the real one...

Even if this was real the age, damage and missing pieces make it worth $1,500 at most. I don't see why anyone would pay more than $500 new for this phone, titanium isn't that special and who cares about the laser etching? but, THIS IS A FRAUDULANT LISTING. First of read his user name backwards. Review his account history. Second, I've asked him twice to provide me information about where he purchased the phone and a image of the reciept. I was told he would give me this after I wired him the money or met him to pay cash. Very suspicous. Maybe law enforcement needs to take a look at this as it seems to me he is setting up someone for a robbery. Third, (please correct me) the format of this listing is odd, it is missing standard features of e-bay auction listings such as the "terms of sale" and "delivery/payment" options. I've sold items on e-bay and it is not possible to list an item without the paypal option. Could be some hacking going on here. I couldn't find this listing through a regular e-bay search, I had to follow a direct off-site link to get the listing. VERY SUSPICOUS I would like to see this looked at by local or federal law enforcement.
