    Yeah but I don't understand why. Souq is a place where they offer at discounted rates :/

    This is not official, and Souq is not always discounted. It is not offered by Souq anyways. Not an official launch, will not be priced at 3499 AED

    And I heard souq is not a best place to buy mobile phones. Dont ask me why, its just something I heard
    And I really think you should wait till its officially launched. Then u could find all those places where we find phones for cheap

    Souq.com is an online auction with highest bidder getting the goods and since Priv still isn't officially launched in Dubai so whoever got them from otherwhere is selling them at jacked up price now which is common. Just wait till it's officially released and I'm sure even Souq.com prices will fall.

    I'm in Canada and I haven't received my PRIV yet from shop BlackBerry. So of course the price will be higher because the phone is not even released yet in UAE. I also don�t think it comes with Arabic Letters. Better wait for official release and get it from BlackBerry store in Emirates mall.

    The BlackBerry shop is in Dubai Mall and not Emirates Mall. I cancelled my order from ShopBlackBerry and ordered from JadoPado. I should still get my free accessories from shop BlackBerry for the wait. Let's see how good their customer service is.

    Everything is overpriced in Dubai. It is the wealthy people's playground. The locals be damned.

    It's overpriced but look at the quality then. No chances of defects. I wouldn't mind paying a thousand bucks for it because what it is giving me is worth it. I just shared it here to let everyone know it's overpriced for no reason. But then I can't order one from USA. 699 + the tax and then shipping and delivery charges.
