Live chat saying they've no stock and it will be October 26th :bairn 

ETA - but a reply on Facebook chat saying 5-10 days. I love Gearbest :rolleyes:

That's mental! I take it the blue one must be the more popular option then?

 

Edit- Have to admit though, the blue back cover looks really smart from the YouTube videos. Its got that shiney metallic look about it when the light hits it.

I've asked if the black is in stock, waiting to hear back. I'd be quite happy with either colour, to be honest, they both look good

That's a joke! Gearbest must be one of your favorite sites? :lol:

Yeah, love them. If they didnt deliver me such cool stuff I wouldnt use them :lol:

Unfortunately, nowhere else has the S8 on sale except for the Eliphone site and they want £50 more

It sounds like they'll be a good company to deal with for device support. :rolleyes: Mind you, Bluboo  weren't up to much in that department either.

Im not expecting tech support!

Gearbest replied last night - apparently it was a national holiday in China on Friday.

The black version is due back in the next 5-7 days so I've told them to swap my order from blue to black

According to tracking, my phone was expected to arrive at a UK airport yesterday.

Have you had any updates on the tracking?

Due date is now back to the 1st Nov on Gearbest. Live chat have just said both colours are due in then because they are "trying to get a massive quantity to cover all our customer's needs." <_<

So the facebook chat was nonsense. I think they make it up as they go along

It was delivered earlier today. Just need to collect it from my parents house when I get home from work.  That's nonsense if you have to wait that long. Why tell you the black one is available sooner if it's not.  :thumbsdown
