yes i cant wait till i get my hands on it
not exactly sure, the shipment costs depends, .. it could reach to 37 euros as in my case (living in middle east).
and within the country am living in right now, there is 5% duty if i used DHL/Fedex .... so it really depends on your country's laws

ok but on the desirehtc website it still says 01/04 so probably all other retailers will have it then or even later than that

To be fair that is probably counting down to when it's avalaible to customers.
So shops etc will probably get it a few days early. It's like with games, if you preorder a game from a game shop then you're almost certain to get it in the post a few days before it's actually supposed to hit the shelves.

Last time I bought something with DHL it was from US, a samsung P3
It costed 150$+50$ shipment
Lebanese customs...45$
So about 20%

actually the percentage should be taken from the original value of the product (excluding the shipment).
So basically yours is more like 30%

Seriously though why is there no proper hands on reviews yet with less than a week to go before release..? They are normally the only way that helps me contain my excitement.

I agree with you, ... everyday i check google & youtube for the latest news and clips on the Desire, .... but everything so far is not proper, .. most of the clips just mention the specs and flip the phone 2-3 times. there isnt any proper review of any kind ..

Superb!!!!!! This is the best news for me today I ordered from Clove as well ... Yippie!

Mine is ordered from Clove too Looking forward to it hopefully there will be no big bugs when released.

I would go with Clove if you're buying from the UK. GPB/STG$330. I just ordered mine and had a few questions about payment, shipping etc. They were extremely helpful.
They even told me I would miss the first shipment due 29th March, but would get mine from the 2nd shipment, due 2nd April. many e-tailers wouldn't offer this sort of info up-front because delivery date for preorders can, and almost always will be, a deal-breaker.

Thank you very much! I'm buying from Italy, but I saw that Clove can also ship abroad. So I will also miss the first round...and maybe also the second...LOL. The price is more convenient that Expansys, about 40€ less...

I think the graphite model is the Urban Brown one, seeing as how graphite is pretty dark, and that only a few stores and carriers will have the silver one, but don't take my word for it.

So, anyone can tell me if I am right, if I want one from Clove (am in US) I have to pay for the phone, shipment, and import duty, no other fees, correct?

Yay!! After the crap day I had yesterday I needed this news to bounce me back. I ordered with Clove and haven't been in touch with them yet but as I placed my order way back on 16-Feb I'm pretty confident of being in the first shipment. Come to me, my lovely!!

out of interest is your order showing on their order tracking system, as mine isn't?
no mine is not showing so I have emailed them, was a little worried as the email I sent when they told me they didn't have stock was a tad rude.
Can you let me know when you get your handset so I can get an idea of when to expect mine.

Believe me they always do that, at time of HD2 I placed an order when their website was showing it in stock, but when I spoke 2 them they said we have not got it in stock, they couldn't say anything when I said WHY IS IT SHOWING IN STOCK ON UR WEBSITE THEN... I think it's their cheap business strategy 2 get orders/pre-orders...

I am in the same boat, ordered mine over the phone on sunday, told it would be shiped mon/tues, but have just phoned them again, and was told none are in stock, but they expect some in the next few days!
I dont believe that for a second, I will phone everyday, and I recon I will be told "soon".
Maybe until the official release date of 4th/7th?!

Just got one from carphonewarehouse sim free £399.99. Charging it right now.
Was really hard to get sim free as two stores out of three i've tried had very limited stock (1) and wanted to sell it only on 18 months contract.
At the end got it though
My wife and I managed to persuade the carphone warehouse to send us two out on payg this morning. They initially said they were only available on contract, but she managed to persuade the guy to get two contract ones swapped over to payg (like the phones arre different anyway lol) and he sent them out. Should get them tomorrow. He apparently had to discuss it with a manager first but they will do it if you askl

Starting to sound like its not what you know, its who you know. Or more specifically, who at CPW knows.
Some shops are selling it PAYG, some not.
makes you wonder how much Mobiles.co.uk are paying people to say "sorry, its not in stock", over and over again. Rather than just deliver good service, and employ less staff to lie!
Just spoke to Carphone warehouse in the Trafford Centre, manchester. They have 8 on Orange PAYG. Cannot buy "Sim free" but Orange PAYG is £400 + £10 credit.
I was going to get one from superetrader.co.uk for £387.75 but i'm not sure i can wait until the 5 april!!!
I'm going to go buy one from the trafford centre now!!!!!!

Verizon Release Date

Hi,
I'm a moderator over at Android Forums. I regularly get leaks from a Vz insider. I wanted to share this information, as I didn't think it was fair to be miserly with it. S/he says the phone is coming out on 11/17.
I posted the complete messages here. S/he gives the reason it's coming out on the 17th in the follow-up message that I liked in the the url above.
Sincerely,
Steven
I'm reserving myself to the possibility that we'll get a November 30th release. That way, anything else is better and I don't bug out until then.
On the other hand, you did get me to re-activate my account on your forums. (and consider premium...)
i was under the impression that the 17th was just for EU

Do you either of you know were to get a coupon code? I'd like to save as much as possible if I decide to get the 16GB model.
The only concern I have about handtec is their supply. On the blog they say they will be filling the backorders. I hope it will be enough left afterwards.

Verizon is dominant in my area. I'm tired of getting less than 200 kb/s download speed, when I'm sitting in a Verizon LTE area.

I don't blame you. I am fortunate that T-mobile and At&t work pretty well in my city. Verizon is the best but, at my house the other two carriers work just as good if not better. HSPA+ is very fast in my city. This is why I don't have a issue with going with T-mobile. Sprint was the worse when I tried it.

Yeah, major city (Columbia, SC) and Sprint's 3G never exceeds 300 kb/s. 4G? Forget about it, at least until they get their LTE built, but that may not happen until 2013, and I'm not waiting until then. I may come back if they get LTE and unlimited data in my area, but it doesn't look good as far as the unlimited data goes.
I'm waiting to get the Galaxy Nexus on Verizon for a couple of reasons. One being the current double data promotion and the other being I can get a 19 percent discount through my employer, so I can get 10 gigs of data each month for like 94 bucks a month, or 4 gigs for 74 bucks a month.
Oh look, the guy who wrote that pre-orders open today is now quoting Lee Johnston: https://plus.google.com/u/0/117220625678034723010/posts/bYLDTzCfoRV
I think these two should get together and host a seminar on how to talk out of your ass.
I just called verizon
I just called verizon and spoke with a rep. he did not even know when. so I asked him this "do you feel it will be out before christmas" and he told me "well I honestly cant tell you for sure because even I am unaware of when the release or pre-orders start for the nexus, but if you haven't seen any ads or much marketing for the Galaxy Nexus then it will probably won't be here until early next year, but again that is only my speculation." So even a Verizon Rep has little faith in his own company.

and NO this is not official but its the best thing ive found out from verizon

If you order on a store, you can put a certain amount of money down and decrease the amount paid each month or the amount of months left to pay.
If ordering online, you only have the option given according to your credit.
-Edit. They only have Black and White?! I really wanted the Green version.

Article was posted online yesterday that US carriers are not getting green anytime soon.
Gold should be available to order on T-mo in the next week or two.
Remember that if you purchase it at a T-Mobile Corporate Store you won't have to screw around in case you want to return the device. If you order online, you have to ship it back (you pay for shipping) and only then will you receive a credit on your bill...in 2 billing cycles!

if you are a new jump user and put more extra money down it lowers your payment each month. However, if you're a existing jump user the payment stays the same no matter how much you put down the only thing that lowers is the amount of months you'll pay.

Pixel XL 128gb availability?

Does anyone know when they're going to be available to order again? I've been on Googles waitlist for awhile now, there's no ETA. and i sent them an email yesterday and they replied back with this..
Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for getting in touch with Google.
I understand that you'd like to purchase a new Pixel phone. I know how curious you would be right now, however, as the system states, you'd have to wait till the product is delivered to you. The shipping is based on the location, area and the type of city you're in. We don't have information about the shipping of an order. It's based on the Estimated delivery date issued to you. As you've already got the information about the delivery, that is the best date we could give you at the moment.
I wish we had any additional facilities, however, as the company has its own policies, we wouldn't be able to deliver the product to you in short period of time.
I hope you understand our limitations.
If you have any more questions, please reply to this email. I'm happy to help!
Thanks!

I have a feeling I'm gonna run out of time with the note 7 and wanted to go with the xl, but i can't wait forever.
Anyone have any insight?
Check nowinstock website and run the page refresh extension with "out of stock" phrase alert.
They've had them available for ordering on and off every week. They had many last week, in stock lasted for days.
Good news, I did google chat with a product specialist and they checked the warehouse and said the Pixel XL will be back in stock at some point in time before this week ends (when it happens it will probably sell out again, so pay close attention to it)
Shouldn't i get a notification from them that they're back in Stock if I'm in the waiting list?

Hopefully that means Verizon will be getting an influx of XL's too. I'm starting to worry that I won't get my preorder before I go on vacation in December.

I order my pixel xl around November 5th~8th (can't remember when exactly) and google told me it would be delivered at around December 15th-19th. Today I got an email that they've already sent it and that it coming till the 22th. I signed for the accidental protection deal cuz I'm not a careful person :S I hope it pays off.

Congratulations!
tried to register on that site (nowinstock) and it told me that they don't accept emails from that provider....It's a gmail!??? oh well...so much for setting an alert. looking for a Quite Black 128gb XL... manual refreshed it is...
EDIT: Got it figured out. col site, never knew it existed...
Does anyone have any idea why it takes so long to restock these phones? Why are not cargo ships full of them unloading every day? I would guess some component is in short supply?
And an observation, why did google make a useless 32G model with no expansion slot? If they made a 64G and 128G model there would be a lot less problems. Of course most people would probably buy the 64G model and they would not get to sell the $100 upgrade.

Hey MO11,
Appreciate the reply. I'll order from clove. I need to know the tax and/or custom fee badly. I tried calling US customs and theres no rep to talk to. Can you believe that?? How else is one supposed to know this???

i know the feeling man, its crazy that its so hard to get such important info, i had to actually google and see some sites how they calculate it etc . so maybe try on google and you might be lucky to atleast have an estimation to what to expect.
does clove open the box too or its factory sealed ?
can't you buy it from canada? https://pdaplaza.ca/collections/all/huawei-mate-20-x
Why not buy from eBay? There are reputable sellers selling it for under $600.

Hey MO11,
I tried google to calculate it but they ask for hs code and insurance cost which I dont know exactly. So I'm back to square one without knowing for sure the customs tax.
I'm sure clove wont sell you an open item. They seem 100% legit from their site and from talking to one of the owners via email. I asked them about customs also. They said they dont know but to check with US customs. Again back to square one.

On that site its too expensive. Theyre asking for $670. Ebay is cheaper but sadly my state through ebay charges a hefty sales tax.

Yes there are reputable ebay sellers. But unfortunately my state through ebay charges $52 sales tax for the phone. I wont fork over to the gov $52 when I've never been charged taxes on ebay before. Ebay shopping will be affected by these stupid taxes.
