I think it is part of a promotion where they pay the VAT as similar discounts are available on loads of computer and phone stuff.
BTW it also appears to apply in store too as I got mine there yesterday.
gutted, I paid £550 for mine from Comet and I'm paying monthly for it so I still have about £549 to go!
damn. thankfully I love the tab, but it sucks knowing that it has dropped from £499 to £359 in just 3 months after launch... Maybe they should offer the early-birds some incentive when the next version of the tab is being released later this year. I'm now not making the same mistake and will wait a few months before upgrading...
i just about bought one today but was unsure if they were unlocked or not.
no staff on hand to ask either
Mine was free!
(ok so i straight swapped my Desire HD to get it, but no money changed hands )
Thanks to a salesperson not connecting the sim and me keeping quiet i got a tab for free! Unlocked and unbranded goodness for nowt lol.

just in case anyone is still after a tab, your best deal right now is to get it online with best buy via quidco. they are matching the £359 price, throwing in a free 16GB sd card and with quidco you get 10% off right now. not too bad!
This is an unbelievable price for a fantastic piece of kit! I'm still happy that I bought mine in December last year, but woudl have liked to save the 100 quid!!!
Just spotted that Amazon UK have dropped the price again to £341.24!
I've got melting plastic in my wallett, itching to be used. Given the prices from last week, £360 for a Galaxy Tab, I was trying to resist til the 14th to make my decision.
But today I though, nah, must have one. Playback my DivX... Hooked up the two websites and...
Nope, that's me put off for a while.
Carphone Warehouse want £399.
Tesco Direct want £449.
Clove want £442
Expansys want £499
PC World want £407
Amazon want £408
Scan £450
Ahh well. Looks like Im waiting for the Galaxy Tab 2
try bestbuy.co.uk, main page says 399, but further down it mentions other deals, such as tab+16gig upgrade+pay as you go sim for 359
There going for $250 on contract in the U.S.
I got mine for $50 from TMOUS! Great deals to be had stateside.

how did you get it for $50 Pittphan? i'm also looking to pick one up on contract. if i can get it less than the advertised $250 on t mobile i'd love to do so. thanks!
i just check tmo's site and it's increased $100 off contract. last week i was considering getting another galaxy tablet and it was listed as $500 off contract for about a month. now it's back up to $600 off contract - you do get $50 off if you order online though.
actually it seems the price changes depending on what page you view -
prepaid is $600 plus web discount of $50 off. LINK
"normal" contract says retail is $500 LINK
kinda stupid to list the retail value differently for the same product.
Is it me or are people paying over $850 for the international version of the S3?!?!
That's crazy, the 32GB is $930+ ...
I was hoping the ISPs would carry so I would only have to pay around $200 with contract, and now I'm never going to get one :'(
Whatta hell Bell Canada!

If they are paying that much, they don't need to be.

I ordered mine from Handtec for $715 all in, not including import taxes. Still really expensive, but I paid the same for the SII on release.
Mine will run me approximately $760 after taxes and fees imported from clove.co.uk

Hola
You must realize that for some (myself included) it is just easier to buy off someone/business that will have it locally than to worry about shipment issues, delays, taxes etc.
As far as I can see, the average price for the international version 16GB is between CAN$720 and $750, add shipping and ON/BC HST on top and you're looking at way over $800. Plus most of these folks on kijiji and craigslist that are selling this, they do it for small profit.
I am patiently waiting for the blue colored one and I go through a great phone importer from BC, i.e. MobileDNA. Those guys are great with the numerous transactions that I have done with them over the years.

$670 - $695 is what I'm seeing before taxes and shipping from places like Clove, Handtec, and Expansys USA.

Yeah but I wonder what the import/duty fee's will cost? I bought the Nexus One and it cost me about 120$ on a 550$, so I'm assuming if you buy it for $720, you'll end up paying another 200$ for fees!!!

Not all sites charge taxes, in that case you will end up paying taxes.

That's where I got my Galaxy Note (they served me well). What kind of price did you get from them? I emailed them just a moment ago.
ya, ive ordered my last couple phones from handtec (HD2, S2, S3) and they've all come up to around the same price of $700 after shipping.
But since i live in Ontario, the tax gets me hard and is usually around $100 once the package comes from FedEX - making it a total of $800
ya its steep, but im such a sucker for new phones so ya.
You're looking at ~$800 if you live in Ontario - other places in Canada will have cheaper tax so you'll pay a bit less
Hola
I have bought from Handtec myself. My greatest concerns were always about getting warranty on these high-end devices. As you would know IF something was wrong with the phone, shipping it back to the UK was required, this in itself was stress. I saw a few posts here when the S2 was originally launched that some folks had to ship it back, and then wait like a few weeks before getting back a replacement. I wanted to avoid this potential issue and hence looked for a Canadian distributor to handle this stuff.
Interestingly the only reputable company I found was way out west in BC... hence I now buy all my latest phones through them.
Killing me to know that I have to wait on the blue colored version until next week or so.

I got mine from HK $799 plus $10 fedex overnight and only paid $22 for charges at the door .
I just sold my HTC One X (International) for $350 after tax, shipping, and insurance. How much did you sell your phone for in order to buy the Nexus 4 in a couple days.
I sold my 16GB T-Mobile Galaxy S III with a dented corner (dropped it) for $390 locally on craigslist. I figure that after tax and shipping costs, I should break about even for the Nexus 4 and I didn't want to deal with Ebay and all their fees.

Generous!
I'm going to sell my perfect and pristine (screen etc) white Gnex for about 250 Euro, I think. However, going to wait a little longer for some 'good news' we are all hoping for. I wonder, have there been rev.2 Gnexi, hardware wise?
Haven't yet as I need a phone while I wait for the Nexus! How could I possibly sell mine before getting a new phone and be left phoneless? No sir, would never happen voluntarily!
Anyhoo, after a couple of days to make sure there are no major problems with the Nexus, I intend to trade in my Galaxy S2 for £147 in my local CEX shop. I know I could get more for it on Amazon but there's no guarantee of a sale and it's far more convenient to just walk into the shop than faffing around with the postage and packaging etc.
So that effectively halves the price of the 16GB Nexus 4 which I intend to buy.
Roll on Nexus 4 release!!! :victory:
Motorola Atrix 2
Sold my Atrix 2 for 278 USD. Paid 326 USD on January.

With used N7100s selling for over $600 on Ebay and a dearth of them on the closing marketplace here, I think it will be awhile for prices to drop into the $500-$550 range. I pulled the trigger on one. New Egg has a 30 day return policy and ships quickly. I buy all my PC building parts from them.

And then you go to pay, and they say the device may be manually unlocked with scratches...
I didn't order, and bought for 550$ from eBay.

The N7100 does not have to be "manually unlocked"
That is for US carrier phones that need to be PHYSICALLY unlocked! LOL Its a disclaimer that does not apply to already factory unlocked phones. and with a 14 day no questions asked return policy, there is not much risk taking here. NewEgg is a very reputable online store.
The only phone on Ebay for $550 was or is a used white one missing accessories. I did not see any new devices selling for $550. I would have bought it if it was a US company.
ALL unlocked phone sellers should have that disclaimer.

There was a black friday deal on ebay for a BRAND NEW Galaxy Note 2. for $550. They sold 1,000.
see if this link works for you, its an expired listing now. but u might still be able to view it.

I think newegg.com extended the sale to 11/27/2012
I purchased mine from Newegg, beginning of November when they had it on sale for $589. It was brand new in the box and runs SWEET!

I jumped on the $49 with rebate Tmobile deal. TMobile screwed up soooo badly that online orders got canceled and my phone order didn't get processed till after the deal was closed in their system. So as result they manually gave the deal, $49 and I do not have to do the mail in rebate. So not bad, I can get the phone for $49 + $200 etf + $63 for the month of service. Wish I had ordered 3 more.

I am sure and in January maybe $500 LOL At some point I had to jump. Anything less than used pricing was good enough. $550 would have been great. But My Note is on Ebay now and that would be worth less as the Note II goes down so it's a wash going forward. But yeah $550 would have been sweet considering the used ones are selling for new prices on Ebay. Crazy! I am curious what my blemished Note will bring. Its at $290 I had a BIN price pf $350 with 32GB SD Card. But that's gone with the first bid. 5 day auction so it won't be active until later this week.
