Nexus 4 - Singapore Thread

Anyone from Singapore spotted this baby in any of the shops yet?
I know it's yet to be officially released but I remember seeing the galaxy nexus in sim lim and some random neighborhood hp shop at least 3 weeks before actual release date... plan to go scout for this this weekend to try and check out the pricing for buying off the shelves here...
I'm abit skeptical of ordering electronic eqpt online....

I think we'll have to wait till December or next year january. I want the nexus 4 badly but do you know what's the suggested price of it?

I want this piece also. But here in Malaysia i know price will be marked up more than 50%. Which is kinda sh*tty. Sigh. So i plan to get it in the US via playstore and somehow delivered to my mom who is currently visiting there.

Scouted still no sight of it.... will continue and update rrp for it I don't know.... if you're in Malaysia and near SG maybe we could work something out if and when it hits stores here...
Jellybeaning.....

Yeah. Oh just out of curiosity how much did it cost for gnex in Singapore when it was first launched?

Don't remember actually but now it's going for about 490 if I got it right...

Yeah. You're the lucky one. Sigh. I don't think so i could get from playstore as planned. Since it has to be bought using a US credit card. Oh well. Just have to check the price here when its launched here. Worse comes to worst at least I'll get at least a one year warranty for that kinda markup price

That thing is obviously going to sell for more than the GNex. Might end up going for the Xperia P if the price doesn't drop.

Help us order and ship to us! Haha

I'm sure it will be very expensive. If Europe is anything to go by , LG will sell it with a RRP of SG$900+ (€599 in EU, even though it's only €299 in the Play store).
I think I'll be getting mine from Aussie Play store when I'm there in December. Might order 2 and sell one if I can profit from it.

You'll find some uk ones on eBay for a small mark up once they launch I'm sure. Postage might be a bit steep though!

Hey guys visit this website http://www.GadgetsINSG.com/#!google-nexus-4/cmht some guy asked me if I want to reserve or not. I can't believe the nexus 4 at 8gb is going to costs S$549 while the galaxy nexus costs S$700+

Edit.... saw that it's pay upon collection!

So is it another scam or is it real? I told my mother about this and then she spit out everything about phone scammers

Will do. Whether I buy an extra one depends on the SG price and if I leave in time to claim the Aussie GST back
Also a friend might want to order one, and I believe you can only order 2 per account.

I'm in NJ, and I'll be purchasing the 16GB version. I'm guessing that it'll be around USD$386.00. That's including tax and shipping.

I'm from the uk and I wanna buy the n4 from the USA because the 16gb is for $349 which is around £220. Is there anyway I can do this or does anyone know a website that is selling it for a similar price
Thx in advance

Best option would be to find a friend/relative in the US, have them buy it on your behalf, and send it on to you in the UK (though, make sure you have a USB charger at home with a UK plug). Failing that, wait a couple weeks for eBay; prices for US devices shipped to the UK should stabilize.

Nexus 4 price change

This sucks bigtime! I fear It will be the same in more countries.....

the play store price remain the same, for international just have to wait for a site like expansys to give a good price.

Wow I wonder how Germany will be like. I might just have to wait 3 weeks until I'm back in the US to buy this phone now.

Same for me (in Austria). But at least many Austrians have the chance to get it from Germany's Play Store through friends/relatives in Germany. But thing is, the recommended retail price of € 549.- for the Nexus 4 16 GB won't correspondend to the actual selling prices. The first retailer is already announcing it for € 399.- (http://geizhals.at/eu/859912), others will follow. The only reason for this crazy pricing is probably LG's try to protect their Optimus G (which is very similar to the Nexus 4) of being unsellable...

...

why google don't open the Google Play Device store to more countries ..
what is the reason for google to select or not to select a country ? resistance from local retail or mobile operators ?
such a big price diff is ridiculous ..btw..

Yeah, I'm always getting "this product is not available in your country", Portugal here, and I just don't see the reason why they do it like that. Whats the difference betwen the countrys that justifies this regon lock in apps, devices, etc.?

There may not be a technical reason for limiting the Play Store to certain countries.
Allowing sales in a country opens up all kinds of legal liability. You have to be able to collect and submit applicable taxes, adhere to fair trade laws, deal with customs and tariffs, etc.

From what I've read, you have to use credit card from the same country as your home adress country, so, it will not be possible...

[Q] Any way to buy a nexus 4 from america? I live in Italy.

Hi everyone, unfortunately the nexus 4 by LG hasn't been sold yet. In the future maybe it will be sold for about 549 or 599 euros.... It is a lot.
I just would like to know if there is a different way to get it cheaper!
Thanks in advance.

I can sell you my 16GB one whenever Google decide to ship to me. £400 + shipping.
