How it all started was this:
My iPhone 4's home button was getting a bit odd occasionally not reacting or double tapping and re-calibrating the button didn't help I left it a few weeks but it started to get worse so I started looking into repairs but it wasn't urgent since it worked most of the time...
I Posted on a forum or two about the situation and one guy came up with a solution which was rather plausible seemed a bit risky to me and against my better judgement I followed his advice of some cleaning solution near drowning the home button then press it a few times turn it on its face on a cloth and press a few more times to remove the cleaner to clear up the potential grime...
I regretted that it near killed the home button and started causing the dock connector to malfunction...
At that point for my own budget the iPhone 4 was beyond economical repair and kicking myself I decided to sell it on eBay as a spares or repair broken phone listing its faults.
Surprisingly it sold for a huge sum... £143 / $225 / 160€
It wasn't enough to get me another iPhone 4 or better and didn't want to downgrade so I went ahead and started looking at the best android I could get for the cash on eBay and found I could get an Unlocked Galaxy S2 for that much! I was rather happy with that as the specs of the S2 makes the iPhone 4 look crap aside from screen res. So bought that up! free traceable shipping too!
Thats where everything started to go downhill... You see I am in Norway and use UK eBay... and it arrived in Norway really fast but then got held up for 5 days at the letter center and then went to the dreaded place...
"Consignment is assumed dutiable and has been sent to customs for clearance".
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
After clearing not one but TWO customs offices its on its way to me again but now I expect I am about to get anal raped by Import tax. :'(
IF they followed the invoice in the box it shouldn't be too bad but ive had an experience when they didn't....
My phone has continued on to me but Posten are slower than a dead sloth so I expect ill have to wait till mid next week to get my hands on it and find out the damage to my wallet...
