The retailer came up with that price. Not BlackBerry. They are just trying to make money off the people that want the device before everybody else...
Blackberry is selling it for RM1998 in Malaysia and Hong Kong; which is about 380 Pounds. So the Carriers will probably charge around 449-499 Pounds SIM free.
People, please use your brains before complaining about things like this.09-18-13 11:48 AMLike 0 - Sigh...I wonder how many times this has to be said...

I am acting like there is another price for it BECAUSE THERE IS. The Selfridges price is a two-week UK exclusive so they can charge a stupid amount for people to get it early.
Let's not be petty here. I was just sick of people complaining about what is obviously an exclusive pricing scheme by a stupidly expensive fashion retailer. I've treated you no differently from the other people I've seen complaining about this.09-18-13 11:59 AMLike 0 - Well the Z10 launched in Malaysia at ~RM2300 (~$700) and the Z30 is launching at RM1998 (~$620) so it is cheaper at launch.09-18-13 12:01 PMLike 0
- amazinglygracelessRetired ModWhat difference does it make who set the price. The question was whether anyone is going to pay THAT particular price. The OP was not complaining about anything, just asking a really simple to understand question.09-18-13 12:02 PMLike 0

Maybe I'm misinterpreting the situation but his post was just an inflammatory question without much objective weight behind it...so I got annoyed.
It seemed more like a post to start an argument/hate-spree against BB so I wanted to set the record straight.
I'm sorry if I came off like a d**k. I will leave this thread since my sleep-deprivation seems to have made me cranky.
Though, here is the article: http://www.malaysianwireless.com/201...lusive-celcom/
I was following the event and it was relayed by N4BB as BB announced the pricing.
Sure, the �600 is a ridiculous price and no, I would never pay that for a phone...regardless who made it.amazinglygraceless likes this.09-18-13 12:15 PMLike 1 -

- Since you know that it was announced that it will cost RM1998 and a retail line like Selfridges which is an Up-market retailer, will obviously charge a ridiculous amount for an exclusive; it is logic...hence, the brain.

- amazinglygracelessRetired ModIt seemed that he was complaining about the price being �600 for "an oversized z10". Otherwise he wouldn't have started a thread about this.

Look, I'm sorry for seeming like a complete kn*b-wrangler. I just figured that if you had seen that pic in the forums, it had been shortly followed by the corrections which I figured you would have seen as well.
Either way, no need to take it like a personal attack when someone is being an a** like I was.
I'm sorry, but just chill out and be more level-headed when dealing with terrible people like me. :-P
Though it doesn't hurt to check things out around your source. ;-)09-18-13 02:46 PMLike 0 - how the hell do you know what i know? you think i knwo the price is RM1998? i just saw one pic saying its 600pounds and ppl in forum saying that. apparently you know exactly what i know and you know im refusing to use my brain.

- Since I'm keeping my Q as my everyday device, I can wait it out several months to pick up a Z30 at my price. I really will want this come April 2014 when the MLB season starts. I can't bare to watch another year of MLB.TV on my Q10 screen.
