Cellphone price

Recently I inquired about the SE W810i prices in Pune.
Couple of mobile shops indicated the price as 13.2 K including external speakers

When I inquired in another shop, which is authorized SE mobile shop and sells only SE phones, they said 13.9 K for the same model.

I wonder why would there be so much difference within the same city?
Is it that authorized centers have higher price range or do they offer any additional services etc?

r u getting it with bill for 13.2k...
well generally the local shops offer it without bill to evade TAX...
btw 700 isnt a big difference... some times it can go in thousands..

BTW my frd bought a W810 @ 12.5k with bill. Just last week itself.

me also heard that authorised mobile shops generally sells phones in higher price than market.....

Very true...But don't know why (I think because of after sales service)...

nope.. They hav to provide the same after sales service even if u hav a valid bill of any other shop..

yeah, u can buy at any shop who gives a bill. u will get the same service at the authorised service center. no worries on that front!

^^^ ya.....
