Hi all!
I am looking for a physical store in San Francisco where they sell the Galaxy Nexus or where you believe i can find one from a reliable store. Please i need some quick input as i am just gonna be here for another 3-4 days.
I'm aware of Expansys and internet retailers, but must be a physical store. I've been a Nexus One early adopter.
Thanks.
No store in america has it yet, it hasn't been released at the moment.

My brother is in SF but he will leave saturday... as he is staying in a hotel.. it is a pita and not desirable to ship to a hotel. He said the only way he would think of buying me one was just physical only.
Thanks for the heads up. How much was on handtec? Shipping cost?
it came out to 439.98 GBP including shipping which on tuesday morning worked out to 684.48 USD. Now it would be about 690.94 USD due to conversion rate. I used paypal with my amex. they only have 1 shipping option to USA
Buy it from Expansys, I got mine in three days in the USA.
expansys-usa doesn't have stock though. they were expecting to get stock today but their website shows they are still waiting.
warning -- the handtec fedex shipping label says 'weekday delivery' so i wouldn't count on getting it on saturday
You could try Mobilecity too, they are in NYC. I think they are charging more than US$749 though.

There's a store north of Chicago that has them for > $800. It is unlikely they are the only ones in the country that imported and are reselling at a b&m location.

The official price in HK is $5698 simlock free
Divide by around 7.8 for USD
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
The starting price for the unlocked GN2 in the Netherlands is 629 euro`s. Only one price listed so far
It is 440£ from clove.co.uk for the unlocked 16gb. It is where I ordered mine.
That comes out to $715 US. Shipping is pretty reasonable about 16£ ($26) to the US via DHL.
If you wait a bit after it is officially released you will be able to find it slightly cheaper from hk sellers on eBay (grey market versions).. Also, don't let price be your only guide as to where you are buying from, take into account the reliability of the sellers, especially if you are buying from eBay.

Make sure you get a genuine handset and not some import model from who knows where. If a problem should occur you may not have warrantee in the US. Better check that first, because the price looks way to low to me
Full retail on the US cellular pre order page is $799.

I was reading the pre order threads for the S2 and the S3 here on xda and Clove seems to have a good reputation, so I am not worried about receiving a non genuine phone.
However...I should probably clarify a few things since I did mention buying Grey market in my previous post: Ordering out of country always carries risks with warranty. Essentially if you order from a UK, or any dealer outside North America, you can expect not to have a US warranty, or sometimes only a service-only warranty (ie, you pay for the parts). In the case of Clove or Handtec, warranty is usually handled by the vendor company (you ship back to the shop you bought it from, and they ship it to their repair place).
If you order a grey market phone from ebay, though, expect to have no warranty coverage..as it is unlikely the seller will do a warranty return for you. Also beware of sellers who claim their products carry a Samsung "International" warranty.
I bought my SGN1 from a Sin Tat dealer in HK when I was there for a visit earlier this year. The prices there are very good, but it comes with the understanding that there is no returns, and no warranty outside of HK.

Hi all,
I am planning to buy either a 4G or 3G version of the Galaxy note 2.
I live on brisbane, QLD, Australia.
I have heard some bad story's about mobicity and there warranty service.
I am also moving back to England some time in the next 6 months or so, so i need a warranty service which would still cover me in England (or one where I can just post the phone back to Australia and get it repaired by the warranty).
Can anyone recommend where is the best place to purchase this phone here?.
I don't want to pay more then about $680 for it.
If the Australian release date of the last note is anything to go by, it doesn't seem Samsung will release it anytime soon here.
Thanks
Cheers
Corey

Hey mate,
I'm from the coast and bought my 3g version from Kogan.com.au
I paid $660 including shipping and comes with one year warranty plus option to buy extended warranty.
comes with registered shipping and took a week to get to me.
otherwise expansys has it as well.
but I can't fault Kogan at all

Hi mate
I bought my gn2 from kogan recently. Arrived in a week's time. N they are the cheapest I think. $600 n they're having a free shipping offer for this weekend as well. Kogan also sell in UK so they might be able to honour the warranty there as well or you can always send it back to Australia for the same.
My gn2 is made for France according to the box. So if you also get something similar ie made for Europe - you might also be able to get warranty from Samsung if you are in Europe
Let me know if you have any questions.
Oh n by the way it's an excellent phone. I'm loving it.

Expansys had one shipped to me within 2 days from Hong Kong. It was on the jet before I went to bed Australian time even.

I got mine first week of release from Handtec UK. It was here on Sunny Coast in 3 or 4 days (can't remember) but that will solve your warranty issues too.

Since you're from Australia, I would suggest that you keep an eye out on the whirlpool thread "Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - Where to buy".
You'll be able to see other people's experiences with certain sites, and be updated on the best price available.
It's launching in Oz carriers today, isn't it? Or at least the launch event. One or the two.

So..who all are looking to buy this in India? I'm thinking of getting one using Google Play Store and HopShopGo this or the next week, 32GB version should cost about ~350$ by my calculations (270$ + 16.5% Customs + 25$ HopShopGo shipping).
Just as a note, I am not looking into selling or buying for others, just asking for people who are looking to do same as me
Available on Ebay
The16 gigs model is listed on Ebay already. For 19900/- with free shipping from US. http://www.ebay.in/itm/Google-Nexus...t=IN_iPads_Tablets&hash=item1c3551d6e9&_uhb=1

hey guys, is $229 for the 16 gig model the before tax or after tax cost of the Nexus 7 in USA ? I just wanted to know the exact price difference in ordering from Ebay vis-a-vis having someone get it from US...
Do you get india warranty when u buy from ebay or amazon?
Hey people, I ordered a nexus 7 16gb wifi only, on 2nd august, and it'd be arriving either tomorrow or day after tomorrow.
There's this seller called TabIndia on eBay.
I got it for 17500/- ($288) which is the cheapest you can get. The seller is trusted, and really nice to talk to. For getting a discount of 1500 (instead of buying it at 19000 through PaisaPay by eBay), you need to deposit the money in his account and he'd send you the tablet.
Of course, it sounds like a Scam, but I did it, and the seller is trustable. He owns a nice shop and you could just check out his eBay Reviews.
you could mail him @ [email protected] if you wish to buy with certain discount.
He was selling 32gb at 20,500 AFAIK.
I'm really worried about screenguard since I don't have any. I ordered XtremeGuard but that'd take like 20 days more to arrive.
Any suggestions for the same? I have a neoprene sleeve which'd work for nexus 7 2 though.
Warranty ?
Am also considering getting one for me from USA as one of my relative is due to arrive next weekend, Can anyone here using NN7 in India tell about Warranty ?
Will we get warranty in India by ASUS ?

Check the contract terms where you buy it. Maybe it got international warranty or just limited.

Its before tax. I bought a 32 GB model from BestBuy. Price came to around $290 ($269 + taxes). I think Amazon doesn't charge any taxes.
I am waiting for it appear in Play Store India so that I can order one for my parents. But considering people are shipping from US, I am thinking of doing the same. Anybody has experience in how I can ship to India after buying from here?

Well if you are in the US, just buy one and send via your trusted parcel service, e. G. DHL, should be not a problem, not sure about Indian import tax tough, I had to pay 7 percent over here.

Hi!
I am waiting for my two Nexus 7 to arrive to Poland. They are bought from BestBuy. My question is: do i have a warranty included? I know that sometimes you have to purchase your warranty additionaly, how is it in this case? If the answer would be: yes, you have warranty, then will any Asus service around the world accept my device and fix it, if it had any issues?
Thanks in advance!

Do you have an ASUS in your country that handles warranty ?
http://www.asus.com/pl/
Well, there are very few ones who are having problem. Trust me, the issues are very less as more people cry and complain even if they have a small defect,however, many people who got a fully working Nexus wouldnot really care to tell about it to the world and I know there are many thousands units sold already. Unfortunately, I have a problem with my Nexus with one of its speakers. The sound doesnot come from the top speakers. I will contact the ASUS UK and see what happens!
The big advantage to order in europe. You got 2 years warranty.
For me it s 2 years and I pay same like in usa. But usa is 1 year.

I don't see how you're able to pay the same in Europe.
The cost of the tablet is $229 for the 16GB version or $269 for the 32GB version, which is 171 euro or 200 euro. In the UK the 16GB version costs 199 pounds, which is the same as $310. So that alone is already more expensive than the 32GB version in the USA. The 32GB version is 239 pounds which is the same as $373. Which is nearly TWICE the amount that you'd have to pay in Europe. Shipping is only $20, or around 15 euro/12 pounds. So in the end buying it from the USA with tax + shipping still saves you around a 100 euro...
Paying a 100 euro more for a extra year warranty isn't really worth it in my eyes. Not only that, most people will get the refresh next year anyway which always happens shortly before or after warranty expires.
I paid 329 swiss francs and got 10%discount at Interdiscount.ch
Total around 298 swiss francs for the 32g.
