It does not have official Blackberry India warranty...most probably a imported handset...seller is providing 6 months warranty...i will say stay away from this deal...in 12.5k...you can get BB 8520 with warranty...

I know where the search button is!

If my post helped you, say thanks by clicking Posted Image

Not a good deal, spending 2k more can give Indian Redington Unlocked BlackBerry with 1 year warranty and without any Logo.

I personally wouldn't suggest going for offers from indiatimes/timesofindia shopping. Few of my friends had bad experiences wherein they got defective pieces and never got a refund/replacement.

India times also selling BLACKBERRY CURVE 8520 @ Rs. 10,990
Source: Economic Times, July 27th, 2010, Page No: 4

But they mentioned "6 Months sellers warranty only". Something fishy i guess :NOTriste:

I think they are importing unlocked handsets and selling them.

I wud rather prefer Rimweb reputed sellers than Indiatimes shopping. Coz its the after sales support we get frm Rimweb experienced members.

yesterday I saw "BEWARE" a programme on some business news channel, which is more like Consumer Rights Activits who helps and warns people about how different people make fool of customers and help them to fight these kind of companies.

They said that Indiatimes shopping has not no provisions which can safeguard the interest of the Buyers.
No refund policy... Even if the goods are not shipped, or defected or broken goods are shipped, or the goods shipped is does not match the description.

IMO E-Bay is lot safer.
