Any low cost Sendo Xs in UK?

6 replies · 2,466 views · Started 03 July 2005

I used to have a Sendo X and I really liked it. In the light of the sad news of Sendo's demise I suppose now would be a good time to pick up a nice cheap Sendo X, as suppliers try and get rid of their stock.

Does anyone know of a potentially low cost source?

Carphone Warehouse have them, but want silly money for them at the moment. Probably the cheapest source is ebay.

It would be great if anybody who found a cheap source of Sendo X could let us know here. I'd love to have a second handset for when i'm going back to France every so often. That would allow to use use both my UK and French SIM cards at the same time.

I don't know if this is what you mean by cheap, but it's certainly a lot less than you could pay. Expansys have good deals on X + keyboard and X + BT headset:-

That's where I got mine.
BTW can anyone explain why Expansys sell the above for a lot LESS that just the Sendo on its own?

Thanks for that 😊

Their pricing is certainly bizarre:
X plus keyboard: 141.95,
X plus BT headset: 135.95,
X on its own: 190.95!

Hmmm, weird!

The X plus headset in particular looks like a good package at that price.

The problem is that Expansys don't have any stock.

The Sendo Bluetooth car kit looks like a good buy at �149 though.

Thats right, sendo doesn't have any stock, i ordered one a month ago and i got an e-mail from them a while ago, here it is

Dear Customer,

Unfortunately, this item has been Delayed due to Sendo going into administration. We are unable to source any of their products at this time. While we try to keep
the information on our web site fully up to date with the status of
each product, inevitably in some cases we are not informed that a
particular item is no longer available until after we have orders
for it.

We apologise for any inconvenience. Although there is no exact like for like replacement we feel the Sony Ericsson K750i would be a good alternative. See the link for more details.

Now this sucks big time, i had an X, couldn't get it unlocked, sold the damned thing and ordered 1 at expansys, now they are in administration, ergo, i still don't have my X, mordred660 sent me his spare X.
And now it didn't come in with the mail, i think it got lost in the process, God doesn't like me m8s, an X is not for me to have, i give up,

Greetzz F4cT0r 😎
