no clue... just placed my order... but i figure it's more reliable then a someone claiming they have x amount for sale... and everyone claiming they have some don't actually confirm they have them... just that they are getting them... Once they arrive i will let you know how long it took... they are being shipped to NYC

They are the Australian official distributor for Bladox. They don't have any TurboSIMs either.

anyone buy the stuff their before? Is it okay or scam?
I read that iPhone unlock for PDA function still charges users. Is it the TurboSIM unlock just for the tutorial and not the hardware:confused: :eek:

I called the direct number and had no responce;
I emailed and got nothing back yet.
I called the 888 number and was forwarded to a voicemail on a cellphone. I left a message but still didnt get a responce.
Also their website now stopped offering the Tubrosims alone, they are offered with isntructions for $145.
I smell Fish. :rolleyes:

Hi guys!
I can confirm that International Orders is "100% safe and OK".
I ordered my iphone throught them a month ago and it was great service.
They work with Fedex and for those with customes paranoia they have "all taxes included" option so you have no hassles!
I just ordered my TS so it now I will be getting in in 2-4 day max.
Btw, I've exchanged mails and even spoken to several sales reps on the phone. All extremely polite and helpful. I kid you not! :)

holy shxt, they just changed the price from $99 to $149 :eek:

Ok, for those of you that have ordered from international-orders.com where do you select a shipping method?
Just keep going forward on the shopping basket... it will ask you the shipping method before you pay.

They also changed my order's sub total based on $149!!
I order it last nite when it was $99 and I have paid them thru Paypal based on 99+shipping.
Need to clarify with them....
i tried to order 5 TurboSIM from International Orders. but it looks like they charge shipping by items even they are going to send to same address. how big is the TurboSIM box / package? i don't think it's a good idea to get the TurboSIM from them if you want to get more than one. also they just pumped up the price from 99 to 149. i will wait for another week to see if Bladox or other reseller is going to have the TurboSIM back in stock :(

WARNING! I would avoid ordering from this site. I placed 2 orders, one for a Turbo SIM and another for a 100% Unlocked iPhone (which included Turbo SIM) over the weekend.
After confirming the order with shipping and customs/duties prepaid I was told that they needed to add more TAX for Apple... What??? Apple charges $599 for the phone, they wanted $995. They then added another $117 tax to that. This is above and beyond the charge for prepaid customs and duties to ship to Switzerland of $400.
Original order: $995 (100% Unlocked any SIM iPhone 8GB)
Customs and Duties prepaid with express shipping: $429.05
Original Total: $1424.05
Then they asked for another $117.48 in tax for a new total of: $1,541.53
I sent an email asking about this tax for "Apple" as I used to live in California and the tax rate is 8.025%. NO RESPONSE WHATSOEVER.
Then I check the online status of the order today and the description changed!!! Now the order says "Apple iPhone 8GB Activated (ATT only)" What the F&@%?!!
After calling 20 times and getting transferred to a cell phone generic mailbox I gave up. Called the credit card company to refuse payment.
AVOID THIS SHOP!!!

For reference, here is the only email I received from them:
the Status of your Order No. xxxxxx has been changed.
Comments on your Order:
Dear,
Please take a look at your new total as sales tax from Apple was added to your order.
We will need for you to approve this new amount in order to proceed.
thank you
Customer Service

Now if you try to call "Customer Service" you get a message saying that the mailbox is full so you can't even leave a message. They don't respond to emails either. STAY AWAY!!!
Thank god for Swiss Banking. They cancelled the charges and blocked them.

I have a second pre-programmed TSIM for sale with the ISA application already installed so you won't have to program it yourself (I could replace it with the Applesaft app if anyone prefers that one, but don't bombard me with questions about which you want - that's your choice).
I bought it as a back-up so in case my other TSIM is damaged I could immediately just swap to using the other one.
If anyone feels like making me a silly (ie. absurdly high) offer for it then I'd consider selling it. PM me if you're interested (but only if you're serious) - otherwise I'll just keep hold of it happily as I'll only be ordering another one anyway once they become available again (whenever that might be).
I'm in London, UK, but its tiny so I can send it anywhere quickly and cheaply once I get your PayPal :)

Now I finally get a phone call from them. And get this?? They are accusing me of slandering them on this site? I have all the original order documents and screenshots of their website changing the product descriptions as I mentioned. I am reporting here HONESTLY so that other users don't get into the same situation. Buyer beware!!! I would think very hard before ordering from this company.

I wish you the best of luck mate! I just did another test. I suggest anyone to give this a try:
First, go to their site and look at the prices for the unlocked iPhone 8GB with TurboSIM included. Do this without logging in. It will be listed at $995. Make sure you are not logged in as a user. Add it to your cart.
Next, view your cart. It will still show $995. Click Checkout. Create a fake username and log in. Now view your cart. The price jumps to $1,995!!!
See for yourself!
They send me email told me turbo sim no stock too. I cancell my credit card to avoid them charge me.

An interesting thing is that they are willing to sell you the iPhone 8GB unlocked with a TurboSIM. So, they have them, but they want to rip you off for a couple thousand bucks... Not much profit for them to sell the TSIM for $149.

Hi, Just wanted to share my experience
I contacted international store
and they were very quick in answering my emails
I bought when the price was 99$
I wasn't going to pay more than 100$ for TSim
when they increased the price, I contacted them
they said it was a glitch and when I said I wasn't willing to pay more
they gave me a full refund
So far all I can say is that they probably have some more glitches in their system
save screen shots of whatever you order,
Comunication was fast and to the point
My experience with them was good, they seemed ready to help
And yes when my order went through the item was still on order, it wasn't available
I plan to donate some money to the dev
I am intrested in the Tsim even after a full crack is found, it seems to be a fascinating little device with huge potential
