Might as well buy from ebay. Same thing! Amazon sux for anything unless its sold and shipped by amazon

thats not really sold by amazon though, thats just being sold through amazon

Your right. I didnt notice they were private sellers...

Hello folks!
Is there anything wrong in getting it from Amazon - US, even if its private seller?
I was thinking of ordering it from Amazon for two reasons:
1. Using Amazon's 12 month interest free finance option
2. At least initial return (within 7 days) would be easy, IF something is wrong with the device?
Any thoughts?
Thank you!

I have been watching amazon resellers and considering them. Most of them are on ebay too. But see my other thread--for a 790 price expansys usa has the device in stock and they have a better return policy--that I would trust more IMHO.

Yes, i did your post about them. I guess I should order it from Expansys-US. Just wanted to take advantage of without interest 12 month payout from Amazon.
Thank you again!

Just ordered mine through another seller (Techno.Trading.House) on amazon for 770+8 for expedited shipping and i used my store card for the 12 month financing.

Hey,
Do you know if they have EU version or any other? I've sent them an email, I've not received any replies yet.
Thanks

It dropped to $794 + free shipping. Sold by Expansys via Amazon

After multiple delays they canceled my order so I just went and got it from newegg. Since it came from Jersey to Maryland I got it the next day. Loving it so far.

Got mine at eBay from networkgurus for $749, it just dropped to $729. It ships from Georgia. The seller was very prompt with his emails. Ordered yesterday and got it today B)

How much did you pay for your's in the UK

Just wanting to know how much you paid for your nexus 7 and where you bought it from, I was reading prices on reviews from £159 but couldn't find any at that price or even near.

That's for the 8 Gig version. 16 Gig is £199 from CPW. I haven't got a clue (nor do I care) if it's available at a lower price elsewhere.

I paid £189.99 with a code from Tesco.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

got my 16GB one for £199 (inc delivery) from CPW. As said before £159 is for the 8GB version.

£179 16GB Tesco Direct, collected from store.

^^This^^ collected from store.

I paid £189 from tesco plus 200 clubcard points (so effectively £20 back at a later date)
HMV do it for £199, and if you are a student (or former student as they never remove the discount from their website) you can get it at 20% off so £179.99.

Hate to break it to you but that's 2 quid off, not 20. Also, I only got 189 points. Even paying full price you'd only get 199!

oh your right, not sure what I was thinking, however with the club-card exchange you still get lots back

£199 - from PC world
They were 'sold out' - however I popped in to ask when they were getting any more - and the guys said a member of staff was bringing his pre order back..
He preordered one, which was delivered - but he had just got one instore the day before [just in case!]
So he refunded that one and sold it to me - still sealed etc
Was the last one in the area

Mine cost me £203 because I paid for next day delivery
I went onto the PC World site a few weeks ago and noticed that the "Preorder" button had changed to "Buy now" and I managed to snatch one up - about an hour later they were all gone. It arrived the next morning too

Buying in USA or waiting in Canada

Hey guys, I'm from Canada and I'm planning to buy a tablet and decided to go with the note because of the multiscreen function and the s pen that could help me in my studies! Anyway my girlfriend parents are going to New Hampshire next week and they said they wouldn't mine buying one for me (obviously I would repay them ).
So I just wanted to know your opinions on either waiting for the note to come in canada (will be available to pre order soon at future shop) or make my gf parents buy one from the US and if so where would be a good place that would have them in stock? I don't want to make them drive everywhere to get it so somewhere not to complicated like a walmart, etc??
Thanks
PS: The sooner I get it, the better it is, I just can't wait anymore!!!!
Sent from my Incredible S using xda app-developers app

I remember driving around everywhere here in Maryland trying to find it when it came out. I could only find it available at Best Buy's, but they were sold out at every location. I tried looking at Office Depot, Staples, Target, and Walmart but the best tablet they were selling was the Tab 10.1 2 or the Nexus 7. I would just check Best Buy online or have one shipped to a store for pickup in NH if they are sold out so they can physically pick it up. Just check shipping times.

Some of these early models have some QC issues like light bleed. You may want to wait and buy it from a retailer who can accept a return if you are unlucky and get a faulty unit.

I got mine from B&H. It's definitely an American company, but it arrived 4 days later (cheapest option) and never seemed to spend any time in customs. The package said that it was from the B&H warehouse... in Etobicoke. I had to pay sales tax, but no duty/customs/import fees.
I'm in Calgary, so 4 days from Ontario is pretty quick! There's no way it could have crossed the border as well.
Anyways, if your girlfriend's parents can't find one in NH, I'd recommend B&H (bhphotovideo.com). I've bought camera stuff from them for years, and I've never had any "surprise" cross-border fees.

I think you guys are missing the point. In Canada the 32 gb will cost you $499. In the US the 16gb is the $499 and the 32gb is $550. So you getting more for your money if you buy it in Canada.

True... I forgot to actually reply to your post when I replied to your post!
The only advantage I can see from ordering from the States is getting the white one, and getting it faster. When I ordered mine in mid-August, Canada wasn't on the horizon. Now that it is though, I might have waited.
On the other hand, I've never come anywhere close to the 16 GB on my Nexus S (it's reading 11 free right now), so I really don't care about the extra space. I do like the white better than the grey, so I'm not kicking myself right now.

The 'waiting for my Nexus 7 (2013)' thread

Hello guys!
So I ordered the device on Ebay yesterday and since then I'm waiting and reading all the topics here, educating myself and preparing for what to expect from my N7 when it arrives.
As it will be a long wait (it has to ship through half the world) I'm creating this thread as a place for discussion with other fellows that are waiting for their devices to arrive.
Now.. I should say that my biggest concern is that once its here there is no way to replace it, so I'm hoping it wont have any of the issues mentioned in the other threads.. I guess thats the price for being an early adopter these days
So, are there others waiting for their N7s to arrive?
L8rs,

Yep, Bulgaria. God knows when it will be available for purchase here officially. Devices on the Play Store are not available here at all.
I presume the local Asus service does not handle the new N7 warranty yet. I am too impatient and I ordered early, so I hope that I wont be facing issues.

Just got mine today. I got it from the play store. Free shipping and got it in 3 days. Not bad seeing as I'm on the eat coast.

I didn't order the tablet from eBay, because I'm afraid that it will happen what you're saying there. So the only choice is I need to wait for the tablet officially available in my country, i'm from Malaysia. It will take 1 and a half month for it, like previous nexus devices. But that's going to take a long time to me I'm too impatient to have it in my hands.

Waiting for mine also (32gb), Bought from the US since its not yet out here IN Australia, fingers crossed there's no dead pixel/dust.

I will survive a dead pixel but not the touchscreen issues that some are reporting. Crossing fingers!

I'm as well waiting as patiently as I can. Living in sweden but ordered mine from a seller on Amazon who ships internationally. The other guys on another forum got theirs yesterday, and ordered about one day before me, so I'm going to be so disapointed if I don't get mine on monday! Darn, this wait
Btw, regarding the possibility of a faulty device. I've heard some talk about international warranty from Asus. Is that confirmed?

Hey me too placed a order on eBay for my 32gb tab as its still not launched in India officially. As per eBay seller the delivery will be made after 10 days. As keeping my fingers cross for not receiving any defective piece....

If you've ever owned a Nexus before, the procedure is exactly the same to unlock and root. Having owned a OG N7, I already had the drivers installed and tools needed (adb and fastboot).
You can have it on a custom rom in 10 minutes if you have the recovery and rom already downloaded.

When I ordered I noticed that the Expedited shipping was around $20 cheaper than the Economy shipping - I thought Economy means "slower but cheaper", turns out the faster shipping service is cheaper when shipping to Eastern Europe. A bit strange.
I guess in your case the Expedited service was more expensive (as it is supposed to be) so you had to pay extra.
Anyway, its now 3 days since my purchase and the tracking page has not updated since then, no details as to where it is and when to expect it. Hope this changes on Monday. Does your tracking page show some updated info?

I've bought a nexus 4 this Monday in the Media Markt in Ghent and it was 430€, though this was the normal price in Belgium. Since the price was dropped yesterday I felt quite cheated so I bought a new one from Germany. It will cost me 275€ in total (with shipping fees) and I will save 155€, which is quite significant! I've posted how I ordered the phone from German Google play on tweakers.

In Zwijnaarde. 400€ in march is reasonable, but the MM still hasn't changed it price in half a year. I know it was quite stupid to buy one there, but it was in my hands and wanted it badly. It's going back tomorrow and I hope they give me a voucher for it. My other nexus is being processed by google. Hope I get it quickly.

Didn't really looked for that as I don't need a bumper on my phone. They had a lot of bumpers, but it was the last nexus 4 in their stock, so I don't quite know.

Do you live close to Germany? If yes go there its much cheaper (€329 before the price drop). And if not see if the gas price for driving to germany is still cheaper than the price in Belgium!
Just find the nearest german media markt or saturn.

8 or 16 GB?
Because that's exactly what I paid when buying my 8GB N4 on the German play store.
Also, why do people drive to German stores from Belgium? Is it not possible to order it from the German play store into Belgium? Shouldn't be too much shipping costs within the EU, crossing only one border (certainly less than gas money). If there are any at all. Or does Google restrict this?
Anyway, I heard from other European countries, that the N4 is more expensive than in Germany there, which of course makes it even more expensive than in US stores.

Indeed, google restricts this. This monday I've bought a nexus 4 in belgium for 430 euro (570$ converted). But with the price drop I'm going to turn it back in. My new nexus will cost 275€ and is imported from Germany.
