Summertime... and the living is easy

[Vladimir Curcic]

While we are all excited about just announced new phones, deciding to wait just a little bit longer with buying the phone of our dreams... because the phone that just came in the shop sells at rather high initial price, and yet they already announced the new model which is smaller, nicer looking, with better specs ...and by the time it hits the shelves in the stores...
Same old story: Magic Circle

But on the other side the summer madness is going on, some of the prices for "yesterday's news" phones are dropping very quickly!

Take a closer look at the prices at my country (the prices are updated every couple of days) and these prices are advertized on www.mobilnisvet.com by the phone shops from Belgrade:

A75 - 040 €
A70 - 035 €

Some of the prices are just not logical, but this is due to the actual demands on the local market... or it's just very hot summer.
It just makes me wonder...

Interested, that in our shops (actually cybex.cz) the prices of low-end models exactly copy your chart (for example: A75 = 40 EUR/1200 CZK (1 EUR = 30 CZK), but on the high-ends, there are some big differences:
mainly is interesting the comparison of SL65 and S75 - in Belgrade is the oldest phone even more expensive than the new S75 (SL65 = 145 EUR/ S75 = 140 EUR). On a czech shop, cybex.cz it is just vice versa: SL65 is selling for 120 EUR and the S75 for 181 EUR. By the way, I wonder if in Belgrad is S75 so cheap (140!) ).
