Hey folks, got my N7, no defects, yay. Went to purchase an app in the play store and it says Purchase Currency is not supported? for the Google play credit. What gives?

I get this as well. Anyone?
I had this happen to me once. It said the developer did not allow it. My hypothesis is that developers can stop Google credit

Hi Guys,
I just went to gamestop's website and tried to order a nexus 7 but it appeared to me they don't offer in store pickup??
Any other way to avoid the shipping cost?
Why don't you call them and ask?

I tried this as well. I don't think you can do an In-Store Pickup if you order it online, so if you want to really save on shipping, you're going to have to go and order it
at the store itself.

did you try to order? I know on the gamestop website it says free shipping for tablets.

Only on select tablets, Nexus 7 not being a part of them unfortunately
you can pre-order in store. so your better off just going to the store and doing it there.
Just called GameStop about this. If you pre-order in store, you will pick up in-store. if you pre-order online, it'll be shipped.
Just curious if the 7 gets the $10 wallet credit other devices get as well.
The N7 gets $25 in credit upon activation.
Yes. I got it although it took a while to activate the prepaid card through Google. Eventually it worked though.

But that's only if you never had a Google wallet account previously ..

Actually...I signed into google wallet on my N7 (with the same Google credentials) and have a balance of $10 whereas my gnex has the balance from the 50 that I added of 32.XX. It appears to be two independent google wallet prepaid cards.

It's device specific, your Google account is only there for account protection. I have gotten the $10 credit on a Nexus S, VZW GNex, and a GSM Gnex

Yeah, that's kind of what I noticed too. Already had Wallet on my GS3 and the $10 prepaid card on that. Activated Wallet on my Nexus 7 just now and it appears to have it's own $10 prepaid card too. One odd thing did happen to me though: activating Wallet on my Nexus 7 appears to have deactivated my Citi card from my Wallet account on my GS3. Anyone else with similar experience?
i just have a quick question does the google wallet work even if you are not connected to wifi?
Yeah it does! Or it wouldn't be very useful would it

The google wallet app... it should be in your app drawer. When I launched it, it told me I could get the credit by signing up.

Hi,
A general question for anyone who's bought a "used" Nexus 7...when you set up your google account did you get your $25 Play Store credit? I bought my N7 off of e-bay (in perfect condition!) ..didn't get the movie or book which doesn't bug me but it doesn't look like I got the Play Store credit...just checking to see what everyone else's experiences were...
Thanks

If the original owner got the credit, do you feel you should get the credit also? Do you think Google should pay $25 every time a Nexus 7 changes hands?

They fixed that bug. You only get the stuff once per device for the first activation.

Thanks all. Not a major issue bit was curious if others had gotten it or not.

I was thinking a good way for me to save up for an N4 was to every week buy a $50 Google play card at Walmart and add it to my Google account. Then in seven weeks I should have enough on my account to buy it. Good idea, yeah?
I'm thinking the only bad thing would be if I had to pay tax on the cards.
Can you buy a Nexus 4 with Google store credit? Does it offer that option when you pay?
Thanks.
No store credit.

Google Play gift cards cannot currently be used to purchase devices
Thanks. I'm sure they'll make it possible one day.
As I got a n7 2012, I should get 25$ play store currency as gift when adding a valid payment method to my Google account. Today I used an 15$(€) gift card on it, but I didn't get the additional 25.
Are gift cards not a valid payment method to unlock them? Do I need to add a credit card to the Google wallet account first? Or didn't I receive the money because I bought the tablet not at the play store?
Thanks for your help, opreptetr

Hi, opreptetr...
I'm not 100% sure, because I didn't get my Nexus 7 until November 2012, but I think that 25$ freebie, was a time limited offer, that expired nearly a year ago...
