US deals - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I read that Best Buy will give a $100 credit if ordered from thrm, while LG is offering a free battery and memory card if ordered before June 21. That's a pretty compelling deal combo... in the US only.

This has been reported across about 4 different threads aalready.

In sweden G4 is shipped with Marshall Stanmore (~$450)

the g3 at launch also offered a free battery and cradle charger. this is nothing new.

Amazon currently has a discount on the G4 (100$ off): http://amzn.to/1TIpSu5

The official price in HK is $5698 simlock free
Divide by around 7.8 for USD

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.
This space for rent!

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.

Cheapest place to buy T-Mobile S3 in the U.S.?

Does anyone know the cheapest place to buy an S3 with contract with T-Mobile in the U.S.? The cheapest I've found is Costco at $179.99

Buy it from either Wirefly or Newegg, I bought mine from Newegg and I've had a couple issues with the first two I got and their really good with returns and I got my replacements overnighted to me the next day.
If you can wait until Black Friday all the sales will put everyone against each other.
Last year I got my E4GT for a .01 cent sale through Amazon Wireless.

Wal-Mart. $148 on full renewal. Just bought mine last Friday.
Might have to call around to the area Wal-Marts. Only about half seem to carry T-Mobile contract phones.
Got mine for $179.99 with a MIR for $50 - drops it down to $129.99. It was done over the phone though, but no upgrade fees or anything like that.

BestBuy?

Has there been any word if the unlocked HTC 10 will be available through BestBuy?
I'm trying to save enough to purchase through HTC but with my wedding in June, that is proving very hard. I have credit through BestBuy, however.
Don't know that answer (still searching myself), but I read that PayPal will 0% finance (1 year?). You get the Uh oo warantee as well. Also not sure if that will be included with Best Buy.
I do have PayPal credit, but that is currently close to maxed out.
There are reports of issues with PayPal credit not offering 12 month financing as it is a pre-order item.
As far as Best Buy getting it - maybe. They got the Exynos S7s bit only after they've been out awhile.

You're right, they'll resume the 12 month PP Credit after the preorder period.
I don't know, I don't think Best Buy will ever well unlocked phones.

Don't know about the 10, but best buy currently sells quite a few unlocked phones.

A BestBuy rep said they will carry the HTC 10, but the unlocked version may take up to one month after the carrier versions to arrive.
And here we are two months after the (sprint) release date and you STILL can't buy one from Best Buy. The first month site just said not available to ship and not available in store. Then they fixed the site so it just says sold out online and not available in stores. I've checked every day and have yet to see where they had it FOR SALE at all.
Only a gripe because I've been holding out to upgrade for two years and sitting on a $60 BB gift card to get the darn thing.
At this point I'm not sure why they've been wasting the web space displaying an item they apparently have no intention of dispensing

Anyone had much luck selling the free Samsung 256GB microSD EVO+?

Anyone had much luck selling the free Samsung 256GB microSD EVO+ that you got with the Note7? I know it is $200 on Amazon, but eBay doesn't look to be doing that great on them. No to mention all the fees. Anywhere else besides Craigslist that I should try?
you tend to find these freebies go to that many people they don't sell well as the market gets saturated with them. I had the same problem when I got a Fitbit free with the S6, my provider was giving them to everyone who got either S6 and as a result ebay and other sites just ended up that swamped they became worthless.
your best bet if you are determined to sell is wait out the rush and come in when the offer is gone and the number of people selling drops.
Craigslist is not trusted by many, I would go with ebay or Amazon become a seller.

Can't find v20 accessories on lg website???

Am I missing something?? I figured that the phone's manufacturer would have a slew of model specific accessories shown on their own website, but I am not having any luck. I figured it was due to fact I was searching pre 10/28 launch date, but nothing has changed since.
Hoped it was mobile browser error, but get same results on PC.
AM I MISSING SOMETHING????
Did I get spoiled by Samsung?
Very few of top tiered accessory manufactures even have V20 listed on their website?????

Welcome to the stupidity!
Yes. Spoiled by Samsung. It's as if no other phones exist besides iPhone and Samsung. Of course I had a note 2 before my v10 and that was an accessory ghost town too since everything was about the "s" series back then.
I hope they get their act together and at least get the batteries and battery charging kits up soon! Makes no sense at all. The phone has been out for a while not counting the US.
Come on LG! Take our money!

It is my assumption that most of the spare battery kits on eBay are promo gifts that Korean owners have gotten.
Just like 256GB cards from note 7 flooded eBay.

Not true, 256GB cards are available for you to buy, they have been released by samsung a few months ago, and also the battery kit is also available as a standalone, you can buy it as special offer with purchase with the phone or on it's own at a slightly higher price. some countries has released them including Hong Kong.
I'm still considering whether to buy the battery kit.
Purchased with the phone USD 30
purchased alone USD 39
Starting to feel like second class citizen owning this phone due to lack of top tier accessory manufacturer offerings.
Just got put on hold and disconnected by LG customer service after asking why they had no V20 accessories on, or after launch day. She was probably too embarrassed to answer???

This is nothing new with LG & The North American market,been like this for years & apparently,not gonna change any time soon.
You'll have to scour sites such as e-Bay/Amazon/MobileFun/LG's sites in Korea/Hong Kong.
Sometimes,some OEM accessories become available in North America at a time well past launch,but,by that time,why bother....................
This must be your first LG. They are terrible at supporting their devices with accessories.

I have owned a multitude of smartphones HTC, Apple, Samsung, Palm, and Kyocera, but not one LG.
