It is about $700 on Amazon and the best price being $675. Plus the shipping cost.
Does anyone have better offers?
http://www.amazon.com/HTC-Unlocked-..._1_1?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1270388078&sr=8-1
I am planning to get these phones for a cheaper price and ship it worldwide, so am taking in everyones opinion.
Why not buy the T9193? It's about the same price, as the T8585, PLUS you can get 3G Speeds, on other networks, like AT&T, with it.
Am not buying them for personal use.
Its for selling at a better price than Amazon and other sites
You'd never be able to expect as much as a retail store would. After all with a retail store there is a comeback for warranty etc.
I think your main thing is going to be beating T-Mobile's price, as this is where many US users are getting their's.
I paid $650 CDN.

ferraripassion,
If you continue to ignore sending me, either, my unlock code, or a refund, I promise to make, hounding, you, my new "hobby".
You can expect me to, daily, hunt down every post you make and reply, with a link to this thread, to warn others of the folly of wasting money, by sending it to you.
On days you do not post I will look for all unlock related threads, linking to this thread, warning others of your tactics.
The admins may not have a problem with you preying on members here, but I will make, as many members, as possible, aware of your antics.
Choose, for yourself, which way this will go from now on.
Sincerely,

"ferraripassion" finally DID come across for me. It took some "work"... He claims he sent the code last night.. not quite the "2 minutes" that were brandished, but I did receive it, via forum posts, nonetheless, So I wasn't "ripped off."
Just setting the record clear (for ANYONE who actually cares).
From XDA's own marketplace, I got it for £310 (about $470). It was a week old, unlocked, perfect condition, with all accessories/box, and this was end of Feb.
I paid 630€ for mine, came with a 2gb memcard ...
It's only money...
1. t9193 model 1st week it was released... $917.00
2. Overnight / weekend shipping... $56.00
3. Screen shield & protective case custom fitted... $40.00
4. Attracting a crowd of gaukers and showing off the device features at the mall as they fitted my device...
*** PRICELESS! ***
Got mine off of AU.Ebay

It is sitting at LAX right now until Customs figures out I ain't gonna smoke it!

Got one at best buy for $399 but its.going back. Its overrated.
With all the threads today I'm actually trying to decide whether or not to ship my iPhone offto Gazelle and return the Atrix.
Powerful phone and very responsive.
Just not wild about being at ATT and Motorola mercy for software update someday.

There are things I love/hate about both the iPhone and Atrix, so I'm seriously caught in the middle. Any thoughts about why I shouldn't ditch the Atrix yet? You said wait, but I'm not sure "what" you wanted me to wait for
Some are selling on ebay for around $350.
not spending 500 bucks...
I'm in with the "cheaper dock" thing
I want the dock, I find the idea to be genial, but I do not see why I should pay $500 for essentially a screen, a keyboard and a battery.
So, anyone know of a cheaper source (or when - if - prices eventually go down), let me know. I'll keep subscribed to this thread
As I mentioned. Best Buy - $399.00 ($100 off)
You can order it from Motorola for around 360; granted I took my Atrix back before I got a chance to use it.
I love the idea but a lot of reviews and people with first hand experience said it was a little laggy.
If it was 200 bucks I'd grab one today though.

Not anymore, you can't. It is not available anymore in Moto's online store. Before they took the accessory down, they bumped up the price again to US$499.
Not sure if I even want to spend 400 bucks on it (bestbuy). I personally think that is still too much for this piece of hardware.
It's $299 from ATT after a $100 MIR. I can't post links yet, but just search for lapdock and it comes up.

Only applies for people on an AT&T plan. Where this does not apply, this is the same price as letstalk.com.
Thanks for pointing it out though, this is another place to order. And a good deal for AT&T customers
It seems the Lapdock is now on sale in Canada for a mere CAD 330 (as opposed to US$ 399 being the cheapest in US). Unfortunately, it seems futureshop does not ship internationally, so it seems there is no way for me to order it from there.
This, however, brings up an interesting pricing question: is Moto test-driving a different price in Canada, just to see how it sells? Does that mean the US price is going to drop, or does it mean the Canadian price is going to go up later on?
More importantly: how do I get this shipped internationally from Canada? Any ideas?

If it were me, I'd have it shipped to a postal annex or USP store or something, then have them intercept it and forward the mail to any address of your choosing.
Just found this deal. Unlocked for $599, best price I have found. Anyone dealt with this place before?

Be careful...they use to be called "Exoticphones.com"
I'd be careful too...
How can they offer a discount with an ATT plan????
Seems suspicious to me...but good luck if you go with it!
Im only guessing here but I bet a phone vendor could sign you up for ATT with any phone, like an iPhone. Then turn around and sell that iPhone at retail to another person. But give you the 2 year discount on the Note.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Vendor signs you up for a new 2 year contract with at&t. They choose iphone 4s as your new phone. They keep the 4s and sell it for like $600 bucks. They are then able to offer you the note for $599
I would cut the middle man out and just do it yourself if you don't already have an at&t contract or are not in upgrade status.

Did you order for $599, or did you do the contract? If legit, the contract is very tempting.

The contract is only $200 cheaper. If you instead extend your contract with buying an iphone 4s, you'll come out far ahead. You'll pay $200 (instead of $400) and you can sell it on ebay for $600 at least then use that money for the Note. So in effect the iphone route is at least $200 cheaper for the same end result. That is assuming this is legit, and ignoring ebay fees (use craigslist.)

I also just called them up. I work in NYC and they seem to offer local pickup, so what better way to see if they actually have it in stock then to walk over there...The person that answered said it was out of stock and due back in, in about 2 weeks.
When I pressed for a more specific date, he just said he wasn't sure, but about 2 weeks.
...All kinds of red flags here.

Thanks. I was partially looking at it as a convenience issue (not having to deal with reselling, no fees, no uncertainty of what it ultimately sells for), but you're right, $200, or even $100, is a big chunk for convenience. But ultimately, it's not very convenient if "electropirise" screws you over.

This is a pretty good deal -- except no way to get warranty. Expansys USA has a great reputation on resellerratings.com.
Will probably get mine thru ebay so I can get a SquareTrade warranty.

Wow total came out to be $694.99 not too shabby! Thanks for the code!!!
Watching this thread since I wouldn't advice anyone to order anything from that website and I'm really curious to see if they will deliver.
There's another thread discussing the website that OP bought the phone. Always use the search button.
Just wanted to make everyone aware that Amazon is selling Notes for $660 shipped. That is the cheapest I've seen ANYWHERE on the web. I picked one up today through amazon, fulfilled by the oem shop.
Hopefully I'll get a new unit that hasn't been opened.
Yesasia.com has it about $650. I only bought small things from the site,yet I feel it does business alright.

I got one today and already received tracking with it delivered Thursday ... it was transformersandgsmphones on Amazon. Paid $669 with 2 day shipping. Not bad!
Sent from my Beastly SGS2!
OP, did you get it?
Anyone know if the OP got his Note next day, or at all?
Dang, Expansys-USA is up to a whopping $779.99 for theirs.
I placed my pre-order for my Galaxy Note II at MobileCityOnline already. It's the same price I paid for my GT-N7000 last October and from the same source. So far they're the only vendor I found (from my search of the web) even offering/accepting pre-orders for the Note II.
They've always been a great place to buy anything mobile. This will be my 4th phone from them and they really are incredible. You get good prices, great service, and most of all - fast & FREE shipping plus I don't get stuck with all those BS taxes that would've been added on if I bought from a nearby B&M store. I've never had a problem with them, ever.
I'm not trying to sound like a commercial and NO I don't work for them, I don't work at all, but they're the real deal. The only thing that sucks are the price drops after a few months but that's what goes with being an early adopter. After almost a year the GT-N7000 is still commanding $550 which really isn't bad, it's buying accessories that suck. I'm sticking with just the necessary items this time like just one case, screen protectors, and maybe spare battery.
If anyone finds a better deal please share and pass it on in here so we ALL can take advantage of the deal and save some cash.
Almost a grand a year on a smartphone is crazy - not including the phone and data services - is getting old FAST! I'm sticking with this 5.5", Exynos Quad-Core for a while despite getting the same GPU with it. This beast should handle anything I intend on using it for.
***Update***
I'm here now to officaially eat crow - after having been told story after story I have decided to go with Handtec simply because the good nature another member - you know who you are - I even have my FedEx tracking number. Come Tuesday I'll be smokin' on my GT-N7100 after all!
For how much will they have it?
I want one too, but I need to sell my Note 1 first.
Can't justify that to the wife.
They're asking $699 FREE shipping, NO TAXES, and your card isn't charged until it leaves MobileCityOnline's warehouse. Really at this point you can't lose since most vendors price gouge ANYONE who ever pre=orders!
Good luck selling your GT-N7000. I'm handing mine down to wife who's still stuck on an Sprint EVO 4G. Happy hunting and good luck - if you find a better deal could you please share it here
I'm no John D. Rockefeller, but, I can tell you this, if you find it less at some other vendor do your homework before you buy from anyone!
***as a family we've decided 2 give our still incredible smartphones 2 those serving our country***
Just sold my old note 1 yesterday! €300 for a 9 months old phone! Can't wait for the new note 2.

Per ordered the note 2 with mobilecityonline as other sites were charging from 725 to 750...I live in Canada and the shipping is only 29 so it's only 729 with shipping and no taxes
HK is releasing them very soon, and shipping very soon. already priced at 677USD
There is nothing wrong with a pre order thread.
I don't believe there is a confirmed released price yet, so it doesn't matter where you pre order from yet. All prices are subject to change.

I'm not even sure there are confirmed specs yet, lol. What is the advantage to ordering it this early?
That having been said, I don't think he's trying to sell it, he's just ordered this way in the past and hasn't regretted it, so I'm sure he won't this time.
It seems as though the AT&T version should be out fairly soon (like with the SGS 3), and the specs might actually be as good or better, so I'm gonna try to wait for the subsidized version. Especially since I can probably sell this one for as much as AT&T will be asking for the new one.

The advantage is, if you decide you want it, you'll be first in line to get one.
And of course, if you don't, you can always cancel at anytime.
It depends on a lot of things, but ordering something on release day can mean a hefty wait
while preorders get filled.

To those who obviously CANNOT READ -I clearly stated I DON'T WORK, I'm disabled...so I clearly am NOT - got it - NOT drumming up business for anyone in anyway. I'm simply sharing what I believe to be important money saving information. My comments are from my experiences with MobileCityOnline.
Also, FYI, last year when I pre-orded from MCO this same price was posted for my current Galaxy Note. Interestingly, 2 or 3 weeks they happened to raise the price of the GT-N7000 by almost $100. MCO did a ballsy thing, they honored the pre-ordered price. For me personally they earned my loyalty. I'll never buy an unlocked and international smartphone from anyone else!
From that point on whoever either P-O or @ the time ordered, since they received stock were stuck with the higher price PLUS had to pay for shipping. The free shipping was part of the P-O package. So to all those who ask what are the advantages of pre-ordering I say there are plenty of reasons. Your reasons may not be the same as mine but the fact remains there are definitely advantages of doing so.
Now to the morons who can't seen to get a grip with the fact I do not work for MCO in any capacity - I say if you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all. I'll gladly provide proof of why I am disabled in the form of pictures showing the zippers I received from the 22 surgeries that caused my situation which are personal anyway. But to shut you up is gladly do whatever out takes to back up any words that come out of my mouth.
By doing so I request you eat you're crow by publicly retracting your immature words via a simple reply to this thread. I don't enjoy your punky disposition or your questioning or you spewing false statements for your pleasure!

Our tax dollars hard at work it looks like.
Ya know.. I would first figure out what or how he got disabled before making a comment like that. In fact.. I wouldn't make a comment like that at all. Imagine if he was a decorated vet.. someone who bled for the country.

what a waste, ur $.
For someone that lives in the US and had a decent phone [Note 2], it makes very little sense to me why you'd go to ebay for the Nexus 4.
Just wait a little dude, and you'd save yourself even more money.
They reason I did the deal is because I make money buying and selling phones and also I have an Int s3 and a backup Note 2...I have alot of people here where Im from who wants the Nexus 4 and will pay top dollar...I usually buy every phone that comes out and maybe keep them for a month at the longest and resell for something else...its a hobby...I already got a sell for my nexus 4 for 650...bcuz like me people dont wanna wait 4 weeks or more for a phone...sorry if you guys dont understand I myself like to try out every phone instead of being on here saying this phone is better or that phone is better...I just try them all...maybe ill find a phone worth sticking with but I enjoy all of them...but once again its just something I like to do and its a hobby sorry if I offended some of you...just was stating a deal I got...

I have never understood why eBay brings high prices. Some people just get in bidding process and feel urge to bid more.
Just all comes down to how bad someone wants the product .
And someone's phone might have broke,water damage etc and they cannot wait 4-5 weeks. They need a phone in 1-2 days.
So lots of factors why someone would pay $650 for a $400 phone ($350 plus 5-10% sales taxes plus $13 shipping).
And some people either are afraid of craigslist or just live in an area where there aren't a lot of craigslist sales.

How is your headphone hole? I have the black one and it's 1mm off, enough to have the jack curved sideways a bit when plugged in.

Minus your $60 ebay fee, minus $20 paypal fees, minus $10-15 in shipping to the winner of the auction, means you netted $555. Meanwhile the guy that sold it on CL for $520, netted $520 and didn't have to deal with running an auction, or shipping an item out. Seems like a lot of extra work for $35.
You are insane. You said you sold your Note 2 but you have a backup note 2? WTF!? Who has money to waste like this. I'd much rather wait for the phone and pay $350 than way over retail. Yes those other phones are high priced but that's what they set them for retail. The Nexus 4 is better but was set at much lower retail and I'm not willing to pay over retail. I don't have $600 to go waste on a phone.

If you're asking if we would have done the same, the majority of us would answer no. People are calling you crazy because you were willing to pay a huge premium; you don't necessarily have to agree with them if you're happy with your decision since it's your money and your phone at the end of the day.

You can do whatever you want with your money -- I just can't believe that you got a 8GB Nexus 4 for $500 (intending to keep it and buy accessories with the $100 "profit") to changing your mind and finding a buyer in your network (without phone in-hand) for $150 more, all within 20 minutes.
I think your business model and obsession with phones no matter the premium makes no sense, but to each his own.
