Where to Find Trade Suppliers Mobile Phone Parts

[IanMac62]

Hi

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find trade suppliers of Mobile Phone parts in the UK?

Searched Google and struggling to find a real trade supplier who can supply most parts for most of the leading manufacturers.

Using one at the moment, but some of their parts are just not high quality and postage costs an arm and a leg.

I would rather pay a little extra for genuine/high quality parts than cheap imports.

Found a few wholesale type directory sites but they mainly offer accessories, not parts/spares etc.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I think you should search online and for which region you need ? If you're in London you can visit in this address ( 281 The Broadway,London SW19 1SD ). Here you can find solution.

Thanks, but not quite the solution I am looking for.

Just started a Mobile Phone repair business, so need a trade supplier not just a local shop where I can pick up one or two bits now and then, but thanks for your input.

The prices on eBay can be reflective of some parts with trade suppliers, There is a big importer of Genuine LCD's that we use rather than buying direct but on the phone parts maybe because of the size there is not a lot in it.

HTC One X Genuine OEM from supplier above is £23+vat. On eBay its £29 shipped

So unless your buying thousands I don't see much better value in the trade supplier unless you can cut their middleman out.

That sets my mind at rest, thanks.

I have searched eBay a lot and almost came to the same conclusion.

As you are probably already aware, it's more a case of ordering as and when needed rather than in bulk.

The phone parts as such is not a big deal as I have found one reasonable supplier. But, the screens, digitisers and cases/frames where the cosmetic look is important, they just don't come up to scratch.

Would you mind dropping me a PM with the eBay supplier and or any other contacts you might feel of use?

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

PS. I am in South Wales so I won't be competing

Hi guys, I found one very good supplier in London , Although they don’t have any actual stock in the uk to inspect ,because they are just a branch for a major company in Canada and import it from there on order requests , but they did have samples and a contract a promise to deliver contract , with all the legal stuff, was abit hesitant at the beginning to just give the money up-front, but the prices were really good , spoke to few other people who were going in and out the building about the companies trading and no-one else had any issues , so I ordered my first batch of phones to sell on eBay Samsung Galaxy s3 , Grade A , they require minimum order of 15 phones , but the guy sorted it out for 10 phones at a nice price , and a week later the phones came , and to be honest they looked like new , so I put them up on e-bay and the sold like hot cakes . Now I get phones and tablets from them weekly, company is called A1 wireless, 0208 636 1617 -
