What country are you in nocaldawg?
In Australia, Samsung apparently discontinued the 7.7 and overnight the price halved and for a few days numerous stores had the 7.7 as cheap as $274. They were snapped up quick and now the 7.7 is impossible to find.
So in answer to your question - get ready for a massive price drop.

Although I live in Portugal, I bought mine in Holland back in May. I paid 472 for it.
It is now listed "on sale", at 399.90.
At Schipol airport (more expensive) the price drop is similar.
XK

The 3g version is being offered for £488 on Amazon in the UK so no price drop there.

I paid 599 euro for mine 2 weeks ago, now it costs 499
I considered returning and buying again, 2 weeks return policy in FNAC, but couldnt bother

I bought mine imported for 466, but still Idd say , this is my favorite Android device. And I have a Galaxy s3 too!
This tab is worth every penny!

I ended up buying one on Craigs List in pristine condition for $420.

Do galaxy tabs go on sale?

Hi everyone,
I've already asked a similar question concerning the Asus transformer tablet and now I'm wondering if the same applies to the galaxy tab. Basically, what are the chances of a decent discount price in the next few weeks before I return home to NZ? I'm located in Manhattan at the moment.

100$ for 16gigs of space? Rip off. They purposefully left the sdcard slot out to lure us into this cash cow just like apple. Samsung should know better. My phone has more gigs...and a faster, better processor at that! The tab still is the best honeycomb out there tho.
Sent from my GT-I9100
Consider it a "ripoff" if you want. For my thinking the only way to get the space is to buy it with the tablet. I'd rather spend $100 now than run short of space later.
Ha! Endoran, everywhere I see you posting, you sound like a toolbag. Are you a teenager?
My phone has 40GB of space. But, it doesn't have a Tegra2, and I doubt yours does as well.
However, the GTab 10.1 rocks, with Task's ROM. Who cares how much storage is local? Storage comes and goes. I have servers with 32GB of RAM and terabytes of disk. Yet 16GB onboard is more than sufficient for my tablet.

They have them at walmart for 400 witch is less than I paid

Any Canadians looking to purchase the NOTE 2 Invternational Version?

...Specifically Toronto GTA area people, where are you buying the NOTE 2? I well remembered last year when I purchased the NOTE from Handtec, I had to pay $100+ in duites.:crying: Trying to avoid that this time around.
Any sources?
I was thinking of it, but then I read that the international version isn't compatible with the LTE band on my carrier, Bell.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I will be getting one, was very close to ordering from handtec, but then i read ur comment, I think Coptech will be getting it next week, CanadaGsm doesnt have any pricing yet, expansys canada doesnt have it in stock yet, I not sure what will happen if I order from ebay.com, probably will be screwed with duties and taxes. I thought cell phones were duty free items, but I guess not.
I ordered mine from Clove in th UK.
Since Winnipeg sucks and we're never going to get LTE, I'm fine with the 3G only version.

I was just checking seems like if you any air shipment atleast with fedex already includes brokerage, duties are 7% and you only pay gst 5%. So the situation doesnt look so bad. I dont know why you had to pay 100+ in duties, which shipment option did u choose ?.

Bell Canada is selling the original note for $729.95, which is only $10 less than the Note 2 at Expansys... I can't see the Note 2 selling for much less after launch. At best $699, but I think $750 is more realistic. So.... maybe expansys (or newegg) is the best bet for those who don't want to wait at least another month for the retail launch.
When I ordered the Galaxy Beam from Expansys uk last time, they cancelled my order and told me to order from the ca site. Never happened before. Eventually got it at Clove and probably will do again for the Note 2.
Doesn't matter to me if it there's no LTE as I wasn't going to put the sim in anyway.
I ordered the note 2 from Expansys on Wednesday and received it yesterday. Waited less than 24 hours.

It wouldn't be worth it even if you could get someone in the UK to ship to you as the Samsung cashback can only be claimed in the UK and only one plus it uses the registration details when first set up according to the conditions. Surely you would get import duty plus the high cost of postage would bring it in line with us prices ? Plus any issues would need shopping back to the uk ...
Xpansys in the US are selling at $499 which works out at £314

Crazy to see this tablet so cheap, it's brilliant! And sooooo much better than the Tab 2 10.1, which is nearly the same price!!!

No, the Tab 2 10,1 is also reduced:
Tab 2 10.1 = £238 - £50 Samsung Cashback = £188
Note 10.1 = £318 - 50 Samsung Cashback = £268
Not sure I'd say £80 difference is 'nearly the same price'.
These prices are valid at Tesco, Argos and John Lewis (at least)
Argos currently offering a free £10 gift card if you spend over £100 too (offer ends today!)

I had an email from Samsung saying that I could get £100 off if I sent in my old Nokia N95 8gb as I had purchased the S3, I registered as at the time Tesco didn't have the £318 deal, I was getting the note for 299 + my phone, I emailed in saying that it was a poor deal as my Nokia was still a useful phone and worth more than £20 to me, anyway to cut the story short the note has now been sent without me returning the phone all for £299.99 I sure as hell hope I can get the £50 cash back.

Agh, I paid 480 euros just a month ago and it seems I'm not even eligible for the cashback as I bought before the 24th. It's great for most but I'm feeling a bit annoyed that the price had gone this low already given that it had only just been released here. I was thinking prices might drop after Christmas which wouldn't be so bad, but it's ridiculous for those who bought a new product so recently.

All electronic products come down in price or better spec newline the same price. I bought back mine for 319 about week ago from Tesco.
Got the Galaxy Note 10.1 for £234.99 on Thursday at PC World with price matching at Tesco and Argos after £80 cashback
PC world price £399
Tesco and Argos £318
10% of £82 Rounded it down too £8 and adjusted till price to £310
had to buy a cover to qualify for £80 cashback so cheapest cover £4.99
Galaxy Note 10.1 for £234.99
This took a bit of arguing before they would accept their own price promise but got there in the end

not sure how much of a deal this is. Considering you can get the 32GB for $449 at BestBuy Canada
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/samsung-samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-32gb-android-4-0-tablet-with-exynos-4412-processor-grey-gt-n8010eaexac/10220829.aspx
With only a 90 day warranty you'd probably want/need to add SquareTrade which is another $100 making it $480. How great a deal it is depends on how you feel about a 90 day vs. a 1 year warranty.
Absolutely never buy from 1 sale a day. They ship slow ( took 3 weeks once) and only offer 21 day returns from date of purchase. Horrible customer service.
I bought my 32gb in Canada for 449 at future shop as well. For once somethings cheaper in Canada. I belive the 16gb is 499 in the US.

£479 for the Note10.1 (2014) 16GB WIFI only, in the UK

Recently I've been a frustrated Samsung UK underling, whom was unable to get any Note 10.1(2014) pricing or availability info internally.
Hence, I've been following threads in this forum in the hope of some info.
However, through a stroke of good fortune I met the Tablet Buyer of a Leading UK High Street Retailer...
The Note 10.1 (2014) 16GB WIFI only device will be priced at £479
The device will be available in approximately 2 weeks.
The buyer didn't know the price of the LTE model, which would suggest that the LTE model may not be available within a similar time frame.
Also the Tab3 LTE models will be available (Sim-Free) at the end of October priced with £100- £120 premium over the WIFI only models.
Hope this info eases a few minds!!!
Many thanks for all the great posts
all the best...

Why are we always being ripped off here in the UK? Gotta buy them in the US then.
Tesco Hudl perhaps.
.
I don't care what components and specs are inside this thing. It should not be priced more than an ipad if it is still made of cheap plastic and looks like it was designed by a graduate.
Should be around £350.
Im not buying this out of principle despite being a millionaire and someone who just lost many many times over this amount in a poker game last night.
The Note 8 pricing was a complete joke but this isn't too far behind.
I don't understand why it is much more expensive than the US. $550 converted in £ with 20% extra for VAT makes £400 not £479.
