Here is a good deal I found on ebay India, if you missed the firesale or don't have anyone in US to ship it to you or carry it for you - and don't trust yourself to handle to shipping and customs yourself - you can buy it here - a little expensive - but cheap for a tab of such hardware, and now that Android is there on it
Worth the 350$ - as it includes shipping and customs
I don't know the seller, but have bought stuff from them - pretty good - but takes 3 weeks to get stuff - so if u want one :
http://www.ebay.in/itm/HP-TouchPad-...5?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item3f0ebcdf75
But again, I or anyone at XDA staff does not take any responsibility for this
That doesn't seem like a very good deal to me? Those were selling for $149 during the firesale. So you're saying that $200 for shipping it to India is a good price?

Lol. Read this wrong. Thought you meant $200 for an HP Touchpad and he is right it is too much. You can get one in the US for $200.
Why go for a TP for 350$? Get a Asus TF instead or GTab if you want VFM.

I sold my 32GB TP for $280 for which i paid a lot of customs and shipping haha. I don't think its a good deal on ebay. Also the seller cart2...... is just plain bogus, they order your goods after you finish your order on ebay
I agree with archat once can get a better Device for those 350 which is TF, galaxy tab, even gtab is better.
yes cart to >>>>> is total crap...
Read what I said, it's only a good price for those people who don't want to ship it to India themselves or don;t have anyone to bring it from US.
Hardware is same as any other tab and that costs 600-700$, so 350$ is not bad compared.
Your opinion, you can have it
But, 149$ was NOT a realistic price, better to get over that - even HP has.
@Crush : How much customs you paid for it ? You got it for 280$+customs+shipping ? Can you explain
And i don't know about the seller at all - bought twice items were small and reached in time - were exactly the same price as US price.
Just to clear this up for anyone who isn't quite grasping what this thread is about, madnish30 is providing a link to eBay India. If you don't live in India, or need a Touchpad shipped to India, then why are you even posting in this thread?
$150 is NOT a reasonable price for ANY Touchpad. GTF over it. Consider it a one time sale price. US resales of the Touchpad seem to have settled at $200 and $250 for the 16GB and 32GB models respectively.
Considering this and the cost of shipping to India from the US, plus the time it takes to get through customs, $350 isn't a bad price for this tablet. The Touchpad has very good hardware, and is worth the $350 even in the US. It was never worth the full $650 retail price that it originally was, but that's another story.
So, in short, if you don't have any reason to need a Touchpad delivered to India, then don't post in this thread. It really is that simple.
Exactly, well summed up CFB
The touchpad is worth 350$ or more itself, for the hardware _ functionality and the OS too - I agree it's no Galaxy tab, but hey that Galaxy tab comes for 700$ not cheap ! And this is for 350$ for almost the same hardware.
Besides, inclding customs and shipping the seller is earn around 30$ a shipment which is not bad !
250$ is the average cost in US today, so 350$ by no means is bad for India that too including customs !
149$ was a throwaway price, but seriously one need to get over it, it's long gone - and those lucky people who saved a 100$ good for them !
Again, I shared a deal - but nobody is compeling you to buy, you can keep looking maybe one day you find one for 50$ or maybe not
hey guys, i'm thinking about getting my wife one of these today for v-day and i was wondering if anyone knew if there was any specials going on anywhere that i should know about?

This is the best deal available, unless you find one for cheaper than $140 used / like new on Craig's List locally.
Your other option is Amazon sells a Factory Refurbished model that has a full like-new warranty for $180 w/ no shipping and no tax in most areas:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...1&sr=8-1&seller=&colid=&condition=refurbished
Walmart will cost you about $214 depending on your tax rate. You'll get a $50 gift card, so if you shop at walmart regularly, then the Kindle Costs you $164 brand new. I've seen used ones for $140 to $150 locally here. Hopefully in larger cities you could find good ones for less. $10 to $20 may not be worth buying used, but if you found one for $125 or less, that might be worth it.
Staples is sold out but you might still get the coupon for future use
Been looking around and not sure if this is the BEST deal but this is the best I could find.
First get this Staples coupon: (you pay $7.5 for $15 gift card)
$7.50 For A $15 Staples® Gift Card
Then Staples hasthe pre-order for the 16GB version with free shipping:
Google Nexus 7 16GB Tablet (Pre-sale Only)
Once you add the order into the cart, you'll see it says expected delivery is 7/12-17. You can apply the gift card at the checkout for a net of $7.5 saving.
Note: Just found out that this is not an instant discount. After you purchase, they'll send you the gift card by mail and then you can use it to redeem at staples.com.
Additional note: I found the coupon through bigcrumbs.com For those who doesn't know about this site, it's the 100% legit cash back site supports tons of vendor online. Below are the available cash back it offers for the vendors that sells Nexus 7:
Office Depot - up to 4.2% you can use following free item coupon (not sure if you can combine them all)
336010166 - Large Beach Tote Bag or Burt's Bees Head/Toe Kit
823541225 - Dane Butter Cookies
156437297 - Free Mystery Gift
595897257 - $15 Gas card
Adorama - up to 2.8%
GameStop - up to 3.5%
Walmart - up to 2.8% cashback (crrently pre-order only)
MacMall - up to 2.8% cashback
If Best Buy ever decide to sell the Nexus 7, the bigcrumbs offers 4.2% cash back.
Again, if you want to get cash back, you must sign up with bigcrumbs.com and find vendor in the site and go through its own links.

I am not associated with bigcrumbs but thought online shoppers might benefit from this place.
Edit:
Just found out bigcrumbs also have 2.8 cashback from Adorama.com which also has the nexus 7 for pre-order.

Just remember that if you have a Staples in your state you have to pay taxes.
This deal would still cost me about 270$
yea tax is the big killer.. but at least free shipping. too bad I missed out on the J&R deal someone else posted.
Staples' expected delivery date is interesting. Not sure if this implies delivery for all pre-orders or this is for Staples only.
Cool find, i would be buying a Nexus 7 since i no longer want android phones
We're so spoiled in Oregon, no Sales Tax and it's against the law for us to pump our own gas, we have to sit and let the attendants do it for us.
Thanks for the finds!
You really could have mentioned that it takes them 24 hours to generate the coupon code and it's not an instant ordeal.

Nexus 7 for a flat $249.00 no taxes in my case.
MacMall has it to pre order for a flat $249.00 for the 16gig http://www.macmall.com/ I've ordered a lot of things from them and never had a problem thus for.
Using my last yearly associate computer related hardware discount on this and just got a $27 gift card from a warranty on a hard drive that's still good...
Hope to walk out the door spending $200 or less

Anyone pre-ordered Nexus 7 from Staples.com ?
I am seeing this in my order status.
We're sorry, but problems with your order may prevent us from delivering it on time.
That is probably because Google told everyone to wait until they said so

this last minute hold is messing up those vendor's check out process. The word is most places will start taking new per-order and shipping again next week.
Updated some free item coupon on 1st page you can use on your office depot order.
walmart is starting the pre-order as well with less than $1 shipping. see 1st post for details.
For those asking if you still get the $25 google wallet credit the answer is YES :good:
Staples is now taking orders on the website with 2 day delivery, you can also locate stores that have it in stock, but call the store first as the store I tried today said they weren't allowed to sell until next week (probably Monday) even though they have them in stock.
If "you" work for Walmart you can get 10% off, and you can pay when pickup at Walmart now s mabey preorder and pay when pickup at site to store

Samsung controls pricing for devices sold through authorized resellers and doesn't provide warranty support for those purchased from non-authorized resellers. The "deal" you saw was probably from the latter. Typically you'll see a Samsung sanctioned "X" dollars off every once in a while but usually you'll see things like a bundled in-store gift card or free accessories instead of an outright discount. If Costco carries the Note they'll offer some type of discount if sold in-store but not online where the pricing would be exposed. Depending on your tax rate it would be the same net price by buying it online and not paying tax.
This is today's price for a G-Tab 2 after its been on the market for months at Walmart, the king of discounting.
Discounting continues; by midsummer I wouldn't be surprised to see the Note 8 selling at 300.
sales on Ebay has brand new, 25 dollar play store credit eligible note 8's on sale for $349 today, with free shipping:
MOD EDIT
At a total cost of 325 including the Play credit, these Notes are less costly than the iPad mini.
I wish they would start discounting them in the UK. No way I'm paying £340 for one!
I would imagine they would shift a lot of units here if the dropped the price to less than £300.
Back to $398 now at that link
If you go brick and mortar OfficeMax has a coupon that works in store to get 20% off any tablet this week. You can print the coupon off from their website. For some reason the code the coupon says you can use online only works on select tablets.

I was just able to purchase one at OfficeMax this evening using the 20% discount. Paid $319 + tax.
The store didn't have one in stock, but they ordered one that will ship direct to me for free in 1 to 3 business days.
If you try to purchase it online the coupon will not work. But will work in the store. The coupon's good thru June 8th.

Based on what you posted I went to Office Max at lunch time and scored my Note 8. 0. They had it in stock. Cashier was surprised that the coupon worked. I was Going to try and hold out for the brown/black model that is allegedly coming out soon but this deal was too good to pass up
