Suspicious cheap 7110 - what could be wrong?

[NIGEGIBS]

I want to download a ringtone from my 8210, have read everything I can find on it but with the phone connected via a cable and the program open with the com port set to 2 etc, in the bottom right hand corner of the Mygnokii window it says "not connected". How do you get the prgram to connect to the phone?
Please help!

Hello
On my last visit to MBK i saw a poor 7110 sitting lonely at a shop that sells second hand phones. I noticed that this phone was also there when i been there a while ago, and this time i looked closer, specifically at it's price label. 1.500 Baht! That is 35 us$ and a price they ask normally for a 5110!
The seller did not speak english, i don't speak suficient thai, so i could only verify that the phone really costs 1.500 Baht only, and it got me interested. Now, i did not have a chance to test it as it's battery was missing, so i ask here - what, apart from the missing battery, could cause this in my opinion excellent phone to be so dirt cheap?
The 7110 is a DCT-3 so i could, should it be required, flash it with my homemade flasher which works great for a 5130. Or can't i? Is the 7110's softwar/flash somehow encrypted? I studied older threads and seems like many people have some sort of trouble with these phones, yet for 1.500 Baht you can't do much wrong, adding 250 for a brand new battery, provided the phone will power up.
What are common issues with the 7110? What should i look for, in case it can be powered on? If it does NOT power up, can it be flashed and will work? Is the hardware faulty and i can expect the need for a new PCB? (those are hard to get here, the 7110 is quite unpopular and has lately been sold for 5.900 Baht unlocked, inclusive a pre-paid SIM, seemingly old stock from D-TAC as they were original packaged in a D-TAC package)
Please advice me someone who knows the 7110 inside-out, i am very thankfull for any info......
Kind regards.....
your Thanh

Maybe because the 7110 is a old phone? I think it came -99 or something. I got one but I will keep it as a spare if something happens to my new 6610. I guess that $35 is pretty cheap but I don't think it's worth so much these days I still like it though. The design is still pretty cool.
