  • Great video. Thanks. Any idea where I can purchase one of these? I have checked everywhere, even eBay with no luck. Thanks again. Daniel.

  • I have gotten these from a few different places: eBay, got the Brick from eBid, just got an Ericsson T28z and a Nokia 8890 through Craigslist (search allofcraigs and offer people $20 extra to ship it and accept PayPal payment. Worked twice.) and got the two GSM StarTACs from a guy I met through HowardForums. The 8290s are pretty common. If you keep checking eBay on a daily basis you'll find one within a month for sure. Good Luck!

    Shiiit...you must be rich to pay over $20 for them. I never go over $10 when I buy all my phones. I just got a Nokia 5165 for 99 cents with free shipping.

    Here's my collection: watch?v=QweYGUMaMA8

  • Haha it depends. I ended up paying -$30 for my Nokia 8290. There was a screen burn-in so I got my money back and I bought another one and when it came I was going to swap the screens out but when I opened up the screen I realized what the problem was so I was able to sell the one I just bought and for some reason got $30 more than I paid for it when I auctioned it. And I got my 5190 for free because I bought a lot of 2 and sold the extra one for the cost of the lot. Some cost tons though.

see all

  • i haz nokia 8310

  • Until 2005 this cellphone was popular in Brazil. Até 2005, esse celular era popular no Brasil

  • Nokia favorited the video! Since Nokia 3310, all my phones were from Nokia, though I got an iPhone recently. It's sad, very sad to see Nokia not catching up.
