Hello,
Good Morning to you.
I would like to know details about the D500, like: price, where to buy it in Kuwait, how to pay, and how long it takes for delivery in Kuwait if I order.
Is there any specific site I can go through to buy online?
Please advise as soon as possible.
Thanks & Regards

Dear Mrs G,
Regarding buying the SGH-D500 in Kuwait, I am afraid that I cannot help you with details about price, how to pay and delivery times. I looked around for possible suppliers in Kuwait, but I could not find anybody with a website for online buying. I did manage to find the following “Sales Locations” on Samsung’s global website www.samsung.com, and it might be worth you checking whether any of these suppliers can sell you the D500. Also, see below for some details that I provided to another visitor to the Mobile Phone Directory, who wanted to buy the same phone in Argentina.

If it proves difficult or impossible to find a supplier of the SGH-D500 in Kuwait, then I would suggest that you might consider buying the phone from a supplier in Europe or the USA. I had a similar problem trying to locate a suitable retailer in Argentina, and this is what I came up with:
Hi,
I have found a few possible sources for the SGH-D500, who I think will be able to supply this phone to Argentina. You must check with these companies directly about their terms and conditions for your order. There are more suppliers available, but I think you will appreciate that I cannot list them all.
I expect you will want to buy a SIM-free phone, so that you can use a SIM card from one of your local service providers. You will need to discuss the payment and shipping methods with the companies.
(1) UK Supplier “Mobiles.co.uk”
http://www.mobiles.co.uk/sim-free-samsung-d500.html
Please check the details in their “Terms and Conditions of business”. I would check carefully the warranty and shipping insurance before paying for the phone. Also, the price includes UK Value Added Tax (VAT) of 17.5%, and you can ask for the VAT to be removed because the phone is leaving the UK. See the page below:
https://secure.mobiles.co.uk/t_and_c.htm#terms
I noted the following section that applies to buying from outside the UK:
15. SIM free: We are now able to supply our SIM free stock overseas but, to protect genuine card holders, we will not accept card payments or COD for overseas orders under any circumstances. The only payment option for genuine overseas customers wishing to order SIM free goods is by depositing cleared funds directly into our bank account. Please contact the Hemel office for our bank details.
(2) UK Supplier “GSM Mobiles”
http://www.gsmmobiles.com/simfree/?mobile=sim-free-samsung_d500
(3) UK Supplier “Blue Unplugged”
http://www.blueunplugged.com/Products/Sim_Free_Samsung_D500_Mobile_Phone.aspx?ptnrSrc=1
(4) UK Supplier “Fone Planet”
http://www.foneplanet.co.uk/default.asp?showpage=productinfo.asp&pid=936
(5) USA Supplier “Mobile Fly”
http://www.mobilefly.com/product.php?affiliateid=8795894&productid=460
(6) USA Supplier “Cellular Concepts”
http://www.cellularconcepts.com/phones/phonedetails.php?link_id=69&product_id=3089
I hope that one of the above suppliers will be able to sell you the D500.
