Post WANTED - Electronics Mule for July or August
OK Folks.... Im looking for a FlyerTalker that would be willing to be an Electronics Mule for me.

I want to purchase a Nokia N97 cell-phone and since its not available in Argentina (at least not at a reasonable price) I need someone to be able to bring it down for me...

I will of course settle the purchase of the cell-phone COD in US Dollars. Mule Service shall be compensated with some Spoof Juice from Mendoza.... :-: @:-)

Please post here if you are coming down to EZE sometime during the period of mid-July to August.

I'm heading down at the end of June - if that's not too early to actually get the phone.

Sorry Gaucho100K - Heading RTW but not through the USA. I see it's not available in Europe till mid June at the earliest so I'm no use to you there either. 500?

I'm coming in mid October, but I'm sure that's not going to do you any good.

Yes for a non branded unlocked one they're asking minimum of 500. Much cheaper of course as part of a contract.

I'll be arriving in EZE on August 4th, departing from LAX. My trip to BA will be a little break before I hit the ground running, looking for a legal job.... Let me know if you haven't found a mule already. Most likely I can do it.

JW-- many thanks for your kind offer. At this point you are the top contender for this... I will keep you posted as the date comes closer and I figure out how quickly Nokia is sending these out. Thanks again.
