    Greetings my friends,

    so my Bday is soon and i'm getting a new phablet device . after a look and comparison i decided to give up my old iphone 5 and buy a new one ( either note 3 or OPO ) but after seeing the device online and some reviews i got fascinated by it.
    so i'm considering buying it from ebay or amazon (usually the prices for the 64gb starts from 450$) obviously it's 100+ plus the shipment fees and etc :3
    but i'm considering doing it for the one never settle right ? :D

    so what do you think ? is it safe or i should wait till my Bday pass and i die till i get the invite ?

    I got mine from someone giving me an invite. As far as buying the phone from Ebay I wouldn't. You don't know if they had problems with the phone and are trying to dump it or not. Then there is the warranty issue. Do a search and you will find One Plus One addressing this issue. If I were to the point I had to have a phone and couldn't wait I would do some research and find the next best phone and buy it. The other option is to buy an invite on Ebay but I wouldn't pay over $50 for it. That way the phone is in your name and gets shipped to you and you have the full warranty.

    If you can afford it. I would buy a invite instead of a Phone. It will be alot cheaper and You get a New Device. You have a high number, so waiting will be arround 1-2 months or You can try to win it via contests(. Writing on Nexus 4)

    Actually, I would also consider other phones like OPPO Find7, Nexus 6, Xiaomi MI4, LG3.
    I would not think that you will get any invites soon therefore you should also look around.
    I personally will get me a MI 4, which has the better operating system and better quality, is easily usable with one hand only, but has a smaller screen. 5 Inch.

    I would have gone with the LG3 if I hadn't gotten the One. The only problem with it is the price being another $300 more. Reviews show it as real close with a much better camera and great focus system.

    I for sure would buy an invite before I would buy a phone on Ebay. I know a couple of people who have purchased the invites and they worked fine for them.
