Hi there,
The Samsung SGH-D500 is a good phone, and so I appreciate that you are interested in buying one.
I have searched around the Argentine sites but cannot find anyone who is offering this phone as a standard product. All I can suggest is that you could buy it mail order from the USA or Europe. I am not sure if that was what you were asking?
Please write again if you want me to look for a possible supplier outside Argentina.

Mr. Mike S,
I need to buy the phone, and would like you to look for a seller in the USA or Europe for me.
Thank You.

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”

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:

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”

(3) UK Supplier “Blue Unplugged”

(4) UK Supplier “Fone Planet”

(5) USA Supplier "Mobile Fly"

(6) USA Supplier “Cellular Concepts”

I hope that one of the above suppliers will be able to sell you the D500.
