I'm in Montreal, Canada though. Doubt I can do international shipping (never done it before and don't know how it works) - any Canadian takers?
Im in ottawa and might take it off your hands. Pm me your number and we can talk.

I follow all the news about nexus on a daily basis, but would like to see if any of you guys have heard something about when google will start to officially sell the phone to the rest of the world. Or at least EU, since that's where I'm from :>
And are they gonna still sell it from google.com/phone or they are looking into deals with the local carriers for each country?
Would be nice if they ship it from within EU, so we can avoid the extra taxes.
p.s.
right now its being sold for over $850 here, unofficially
No idea, Google hasn't come with any officiall dates as far as I know. Didn't cost me more than $650 to get it to Norway, so noone should buy from those that sell at $850.
It is officially sold in the UK (which is EU member I believe), so why don't you just forward shipment from there?
It wont take more than extra 50-80$..

interesting, how does that work?
do i owe taxes for the import from USA to UK? Or just for the end destination?
You can buy it here in the UK from play.com, but at a mere £600 its a rip off!
I live in australia and have my nexus - just use a shipping forwarder and a proxy program and buy the phone from google.com/phone.

I used comGateway, was very quick and all that.
def picking one up on att 3g
Hi everyone, I am soon going to be buying the newer version of the nexus one with 3G support for Rogers,
When I start the buying process on google, it doesn't show you the price until the very end.
So I was wondering if anyone has already gotten this phone or not? and How much you had to pay at the end? (I mean after the currency conversion, shipping charges, and customs taxes) please let me know if you ordered yours this week and how much customs did you have to pay.. as this will really help me buy this phone since I am on a tight budget...
Thanks
Considering that the phone was only available to Canada yesterday - you will be one of the first to order directly from Canada. With that said, I did order a T-Mobile version - but I had it shipped to HK (Last week). Shipping was $26.16 and I ended up paying $584.35 CAD (this amount shows up in my Credit card statement) and there should be no taxes since my relative has nothing to bring back except for the phone - which is well within the personal exemption limit of $750 for Canadians.
Ordered from Google last night. Total was USD $556.16 to ship to Canada.
Has not shipped yet, will let you know.
This is the cheapest price I could find for this phone.
I was wondering if anyone has bought from here and has any feedback to give.
If not, is this site trusted and what not?
Here is the link
http://www.unlocked-mobiles.com/sim....html?osCsid=1e5e0e8996a78990b809653ff6588c22
Also, what is the VAT included in the price? I want to buy it from Australia so does this apply to me or not?
Cheers
I bought mine from there, and it arrived in Melbourne within a few days of release.
No VAT in the price I paid.
Cheers,
Luke
Yeah what the hell is the VAT, that I don't know lol.
Also, how much Australian dollars all up?
VAT (Value Added Tax) could be equated to GST in Australia. VAT, however does not apply to those who order from outside the UK, so international buyers save 20% as compared to local UK buyers. But I'm in the same boat, Unlocked-Mobiles are the only ones who seem to have stock but I haven't heard much about them
I'm having a lot of trouble locating one of these. It's currently out for AT&T correct?
Not on newegg or amazon.
For those of you using this as a phone as well.. could you give me feedback on how you like it? Do you use a bluetooth headset? If so, what brand/model?
Please take some time to read previous threads on this.
after doing a bit more research heres what i've found (cant post links bc im a new user):
ebay - 629.00 - 7 day return policy - 1 year seller warranty.
amazon - 659.99 - no warranty
not on any major sites (other than amazon) such as newegg and crutchfield, or bestbuy.
the ebay deal > amazon (obviously).
surprised its not sold by these major retailers... what gives?
also, its factory "unlocked" meaning it isnt carrier specific?

Negri - ~$580 with shipping
https://negrielectronics.com/samsun...gb-wifi-only-black-open-box.html#.T2n_38US1Ng
Craigslist
That's where I got mine at a ridiculously low price. $400 with a 2 yr square trade warranty. It was purchased from Negri.
I've seen other listings on Craiglist as well for lower than that Negri price.
OK.... IF you have AT&T already (smart phone with data), then you can get the International version of the tab. (6800)
AT&T and T-Mobile currently DOES NOT offer therse in there product line..
BUT They do work on those carriers..
.And the phone parts works too as well as internet, txt and mms messaging.
Verizon DOES carry them, but there is no phone capabilities built in . So no phone, txt or mms with Verizon
Here's a thread on where to buy in the USA.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468325
The Negri link that maverick 777 posted is for the WI-FI version only..
That device WILL NOT give you phone, txt or mms capabilities.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525108
If you want the phone etc with using your existing sim card from your smart phone with data plan with AT&T or T-mobile...
Then you need to get the international version with quad band etc
So I just remove my AT&T sim card out of my smart phone and jam it in my 6800 tab and BAM!!! Now I have a 7.7 inch screem smart phone!!
As far as using it for a phone.. it's cool IMHO, but you'll read where others distain the look and feel of a 7.7 inch phone..
I get along with it just fine...

.good luck with your decision

i just read that negri isnt reliable. can someone who bought from there give insight?
edit: After reading the links, Negri is obviously reliable. There still wasn't a definite answer about the 'white' back and the 'silver/black' back. Any insight?
I'd say call Negri directly... may as well start at the source..
They're 800 number is in the web page..
I got mine there.. still waiting on the USA adapter for the charger though they promised it was in the mail twice now.
They should be able to tell you if they have any white ones..
Good luck
.
I believe that Negri lists white and silver models separately on their site (and they have different price). So you can order the one you want. When I was ordering, the white ones were back-ordered.
I bought my GT 7.7 (and a Nokia N9) from Negri and was very satisfied with both orders.
Negri Most Reliable
I bought both my Note and 7.7 from Negri. They seemed to have inventory before most, and always comfortable to buy a product from a Company in the U.S. (Las Vegas) They shipped same day and delivery exactly when they said. I will buy my Note 10.1 from Negri when available. Both units previously purchased were international, which is best if you want to spend the extra money.
My experiences allow me to highly recommend Negri as your source vendor.
Negri has the 6810 for only $498.50. Sucks I just paid $572.50 less than a month ago!
Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to ask that does anyone in the US got the I9500? If anyone of you do, please do let me know. I am waiting for some info on this before buying.

I ordered the I9500 from Negri Electronics. Waiting for shipping. What do you want to know?
Just wanted to know that what is the best place to get them and are they really shipping I9500's rather than unlocked I9505's. I looked up Amazon and Ebay. But the comments on the amazon one's are putting me off. And eBay.. somehow i just don't want to trust for something that worth $800.
Also needed to know a little about the warranty on this. The I9500 would come with a 1 year warranty by default, right?

I have ordered on Negri Electronics for 798 dollars + 54 dollars DHL shipping fee to France.
Oh so you are shipping it to France! I thought you were in US!

Yes. Europe doesn't offer I9500, so the only way is to import from USA or other county. And yes, the warranty will be US 1 year warranty
I am willing to pay a little more up front because in the long run, it would be cheaper for me. I checked contract phones, and they are coming up to $120 a month for AT&T (unlimited talk/text + 3GB LTE). I can easily wrap it up in the in $60 by sticking with my AT&T prepaid. Plus i am not speed freak when it comes to internet. Most of the time am at home with Wi-Fi.
My only concern is warranty. Where do i get my issues fixed when i have an international version. I hope Samsung USA would be willing to take it in!
I got mine from Expansys which I can confirm is the 9500. Used them before a few times without any issues and returned a DOA to them a couple years ago without drama which was exchanged for another (same) unit. I'm not too worried about the warranty as a year is all I need and my credit card doubles it anyways. I have never had to use that warranty however so I cant claim to know how it plays out in that regard. I'm pretty sure its not going to be as easy as walking into a local carrier store and dropping the old broken phone on the counter and leaving with a new one.
I brought mine from ebay for 699 USD and posted out to Spain. LIke other buyers here from Europe the local version is the i9505. But the I9500 in my eyes was worth it. (Slightly faster and better battery) HSDPA 42.2 Mbps is fine for me and I dont have LTE where I live.
No issues, well apart from a spec of dust under the screen! I'm just going to put up with it I think, but have contacted Samsung Spain to see if anything can be done. No doubt they will tell me to deal with Samsung USA.
Well the price of Negri electronics are a little more reasonable, than cellhut.com and expansys.com.
