I'm a little frustrated with waiting on expansys to re-stock. I ordered my device monday Nov 10th. After verifying the credit card mess they updated my status to "waiting to for re-stock". But whats crazy is that Expansys-usa.com says that they have some in stock. When i called and inquired about it, they said that its at thier central location and not thier usa location. Their just waiting for their next shipment.
I just want to order the device and it be on its way.
Sorry for venting, I just dont know where to order at and it actually gets shipped without any delays. I have tried searching via google and the websites dont look to promising. I know of Clove Technologies....but i thought that might be the same situation.

I just order today and now Expansys says that only have a new stock at 6 of December...
I ordered mine from Expansys HK, and they luckily had one piece in stock remaining, and i got it today, at my friends place in HK! (still gotta wait for it to come to my country! argh!)
I saw that Expansys UK has good stock, i mean, couple of days back, they had around 59 in stock, and were ready to ship it to HK if i wanted. (Coz expansys-hk had the last piece, so didnt order from expansys-uk)
i suggest call them up (UK) and find out of the stock position, dont go on what they say on the site!
Expansys US showed 1-5 in stock, and when i called, they told me they are out of stock! buggers!

Dear Friend,
How much you got it from expansys? And also how much did the indian customs charging you? i am all set to buy from Clove, is it a good decesion?
Expansys are shady, they told me when I ordered from them everything was in stock and would be dispatched same day (twice). However they didn't have stock, also was real nice to inform me as well. Cancelled my entire order with them (which was a few things inc an HD) and went elsewhere. Still waiting for them to put the money back in my bank account too....
Also in the UK they are actually a bit more expensive than other sites.

Hey there,
Dont even think of importing it via courier, else the Indian customs will levy a heavy duty on it, and even stall it for a couple of months!
I got it delivered to my friend's place in Hong Kong itself, and he will be bringing it along with him when he comes here in a week or 2.
Bought it for HK$6205 - VALUE PACK! (Around INR Rs.41,000/-)
Contains:
1x HTC Touch HD
1x HTC Original Car Charger
1x HTC Original CASE for Touch HD
1x HTC BT M200 Bluetooth Headset (i exchanged this with a JABRA one)
Possible solution
Well now I get. So here is my solution. I still have my order with Expansys. They do not have any in stock. I just called them an hour ago. They said they wont have any til late November.
So I ordered from Clove Technologies. Does anyone know if they have it in stock? I'm going to cancel my order with Expansys as soon as I know Clove have shipped it. Hopefully they have it in. Another user here informed me on how well they are with orders. Hopefully I can here something from them today.
Last, I know there will be some customs form I have to fill out....any idea on the added delay with that?
www.devicewire.co.uk have it in stock and they cost only £514 inc VAT. Hurry, they are flying of the shelves quick! I also have a £10 expansys voucher for the first person to ask!

Just got off the phone from Expansys UK. They have got a back-order of over 300 to fulfill. Just to let you know if you are thinking of ordering. This is with the website saying "OVER 30 IN STOCK. IF YOU ORDER TODAY YOU WILL GET IT TOMORROW".
<rant>
It seems a tricky way of representing actual stock to the innocent buyer. Again that teaches us to CALL FIRST & confirm. Asking the key questions and not just go by what you read on the site. I'm sure they've got it all covered on small-print somewhere. You can cancel at any time though, they did say that. </rant>
Expansys lying on delivery date
As most of you have ordered my HTC HD from expansys Hong Kong at the time they were saying it should be delivered with 6 days. Since them the delivery date has been postponed and postponed. Therefore I have cancelled my order because the device will be available in any Hong Kong shops at the time of their delivery.
I am lucky enough to have my office close to their Hong Kong office. Therefore I cannot resist to go there to explain what I thing about their lies.
I ordered one from Clove and they dispatched the second day..
I'm from China and the phone's already arrived at Hong Kong today.
I should get it tomorrow
Just to throw my 2 pence in about Clove Technologies - I ordered my HTC Touch HD from them last Saturday, and the phone arrived on Wednesday. It would have arrived on Tuesday, but they had to do an extra security check to ensure I was the cardholder (which I respect quite a lot). So all in all, a very positive experience with them.
It's a shame that the price from Clove is £539.33 including VAT though....

EDIT sry but the price has gone up on clove since i bought it.. >.> like 15GB i think it was.. 20UDS?

i ordered from Clove as well with 2-day FedEx international shipping. all i had to supply FedEx was the FCCID to get it through customs. happy as can be with my device!
I ordered one from www.expansys-usa.com last Tuesday. They told me that it would arrive the next day. Then they told me that it would ship out on Friday, then Monday (today), then Tuesday (tomorrow). Now they're telling me that they wont get any more in until the first week of December. What's going on? I just want to buy a phone. Any place overseas have them IN STOCK that they want to ship to me?
Try clove technology
and search here for them too. I think people are satisfied with their service!
Ofiaich
ebay. there's 2 people there that have them in the u.s.
You can try ebay.com.au. They do delivery to worldwide, but the warranty is only in Australia.
eBay has a couple sellers with them "In Stock". Mine has yet to ship from one of these sellers. I suggest using Microsoft Live! cashback if you purchase through eBay. Last time I checked 25% back was still available for Buy It Now PayPal purchases (US Only).
there are over 100 units from various sellers on Ebay USA, some claims to be in stock.

try clove technology; that's who i purchased mine from and so did several others on the forum. whoever you go with, remember that the phone WILL HAVE to clear US Customs so make sure the seller has completed all the paper work! the most important item to include on the customs paperwork is the FCC ID!

I second this. I bought it from Clove Technology in UK. They shipped my device overnight as promised. It got delayed at US customs due to some paper work. But when I communicated to Clove about this, they filled it out and sent me a scanned copy via eMail and I sent the same to FedEx by Fax and it got cleared and got it delivered the next day.
Unfortunately, I got a defective device. My phone was not recognizing the SIM card. I tried everything, and its just the hardware problem. I contacted Clove... they asked me to ship it back. As soon as they received it, they shipped the replacement the same day. I got mine this morning.
I am sure they have enough units with them, since they sent my replacement device right away.
- Clove you owe me a discount on my next purchase...

Absolutely, if the seller is networkingrus! I've purchased two touch cruise's and and HD from him, and his act is really together!!! Or... you can check out his website. He's not as cheap as some of the other places, but his service is top-notch!
Everyone always says Clove, but no one ever give their website... so here it is... www.clove.co.uk. These guys are cheap, but I can't vouch for their service or integrity.
Happy trails!!!

I've used eBay for many gray market phones. Its a good choice. Some sellers are excellent. Just check feedback, read descriptions, and use PayPal.
Inkino
I used Inkino for my HD purchase. I found it on the "approved" list from the HTC site. Very good price and shipped really fast. I called them once to confirm an address and they were exceptionally nice and friendly. It was my first time using them. I recommend them.
I'll second networkingrus on ebay...I got mine through him and the service was top notch I emailed him over the weekend to verify his stock and he replied right back. It shipped that very next business day.
Im trying to get a nook but cant seem to find anywhere that sell them in the UK for a good price. Barnes and Noble dont ship outside US. Any ideas guys?
ebay maybe
They are charging a lot for postage. And I dont know how the warranty would work if it broke. I would rather buy from an online retailer instead of ebay.
Have a friend/relative bring one when they visit. Or order it shipped to them and get them to resend it on to you.

Not a bad idea sturmavik. How did other members in other countries get it, or is everyone here from the US? Would the registration be a problem if I asked them to bring me one on their visit?
You can use a shipping forwarder, like comgateway -

edit -
Registration is fine - just use a US address for this and some form of vpn with US ip (hotspot shield) and purchasing books is also possible

Just got one few days ago when my sister was in USA. You can register through their site from your pc in advance and then give user name and password to person who will buy it for you so he/she can register it on the spot. When i registered on their site i used fake USA address and my visa card from my country. You can't buy books from your country on nook, only on using vpn service like hotspotshield on your pc and then add it to your nook. Also i dint know but really price is around 280 dollars since there is taxes involved. If you have any more questions fell free to ask.
my girlfriend bring one back when she visit new york

I am located at Greece and I got it from Ebay US seller with no more than 30-40 dollars for shipping.
Im in Australia and used hopshopgo as a freight forwarder . I purchased from Barnes and noble and had it sent to an USA address provided by hopshopgo . They then forwarded it to Australia for me .Ocasionally they have promos which I used and it brought the postage down from around $30 to $17 .
Hopshopgo like many freight forwarders out there often give you 2 options, one is you buy directly with the merchant using paypal or credit card . You then give the freighter the invoice details and when they recieve it they ship it out to you . Some merchants wont let you purchase it so the freighter will buy it for you . Somewhere around 7% last time I looked at the purchase price .
It is a couple of months since I used them but I think it was $24 for the first pound weight and then $4 for every pound after that .
I had no problems registering the color nook with barnes and noble and have bought a couple of childrens books to use on the stock nook . I also have cm7 running off a sd card and love it
I had no problem registering my new Nook over here in Europe - lucky?

Some have what they call "1yr international protection warranty". Not sure what that means, but my NC broke recently so I shipped it back and got a replacement. I had to pay $90 for postage and handling of the replacement, which is silly considering that refurbished ones are going at $150, and shipment took over 1.5 months. Never again.

Prudence tells me that you are probably correct. Ebay is a bit of a hit-and-miss, albeit no one is selling fake NCs at the moment...
I recently got an official, sealed box, refurbished nook color from a reputable seller on ebay, I timed it well and managed to get it for £130 (+£33 duty) including postage from the US (the exchange rate isnt quite as good now). As I got it so cheap I am not so worried about the warranty, I didnt even bother using the stock firmware and put cm7 on it at the first boot. I had no intention of using it for any B&N purchases, I didnt think it would work outside of the US in that sense, but is there anything you cant get through the Kindle app or Google books anyway?
I cant recommend this tablet enough! You just cant get anything comparable for that price, even the cheap oem rubbish from China cant compete. The screen is just unbelievable. Keep looking!
I have one in Europe, purchased in the US ans brought it over. Only problem is some apps are limited by the market to US IP addresses. Anyone come up with a way to overcome this issue?
Yeah, root that bad boy then install CM9. You're not gonna return it on warranty anyway.
Edit: Deal dead. Price increased to $160.
Better than B&N's official fire sale price, especially if counting sales tax.

Talked to B&N customer service. They looked up the device's serial number. Device was registered before, and it's a refurbished. Bastards are selling these as 100% new... don't buy. Called customer service, and told them it was a refurbished product and I wanted a pre-paid shipping label to return it for a full refund. The person on the phone didn't sound surprised when I told them it was used. Nor did they apologize, but I'm supposed to receive an email with a shipping label today.. we'll see if it comes.
Buy at your own risk... some other negative feedback coming in recently that is same situation as mine.
Since the 10.1 2014 launched I knew I was going to buy one, I wanted to find a good deal on it though. I got my Black 32GB for $480 shipped! $120 off retail ain't bad.... :good:
What I did:
Go to Amazon and select the Black 32GB, there will be Used ones listed below. Amazon Warehouse is selling "Open Box" ones for $533 in "Good" condition. I looked for one that had the description that said: "Packaging may be damaged" as the only disclaimer. Then during checkout, apply for the Amazon Rewards card and they will give you a $50 gift card instantly that you can apply to the order. You don't even have to use the Amazon card, you just have to apply for it. Free money! I had it shipped with Free 2 day Prime shipping and when it arrived it looked like it never was used. The box had a couple rips on it, thats it. The tablet is in perfect condition.
For my money, I think you can't go wrong.
Thought I would share the love

Not necessarily at all. It's like people that buy stuff at Best Buy. They just decide they don't want it and send it back. I have used mine a ton since I got it and it works perfect. So I don't know how it could be a bad one. It's not refurbished, that would have to be done by the manufacturer. This would be constituted as "open box".

This is a good point and opens up a new discussion. My theory: I think that people are being very dishonest and buying these tablets to simply get the free perks and then are returning them. I mean heck, you get $75 in free movies/music/apps! Mine when I got it still had all the Perks papers in the box. However, when I went to register on the site it said it was already registered. I opened a ticket with Samsung chat today and the rep said that in 2 days I should get an email from an elevated team that will give me the perks. I was very vague in my dialog. I simply said I bought it from Amazon and it would let me register the device on Samsung.com but would not let me register for the perks. He took all my info and left me waiting to hear from the other team. But I have a copy of the chat transcript that says I will get my perks in 2 days. I think they will have to honor that... In any case, I really don't care that much if I don't get them. Honestly all I wanted was this awesome tablet. And for the price I got it, it's a steal. If I get Perks too, then yay for me!
So you could def get lucky and buy one that the person didn't steal the Perks out of... A gamble I guess.

Make sure you check your gmail under the promotions tab. I thought some kind of funny business was going on with my tablet since I also got the "already registered" message when trying to claim my perks, but it turns out their page for it can be hit or miss (found lots of complaints online). Meanwhile the perks were sitting in my promo folder all along...

YOU MAY BE OVER LOOKING SOMETHING
Below is a copy of the Standard Limited Warranty and according to the warranty by purchasing it used you don't have a warranty.
So if it was registered........... There goes your savings as you now need to purchase a warranty.
I would buy an extended warranty with damage protection anyway because micro USB ports are known to be fragile and I would want to experiment with root. Still a savings though.
What is covered and for how long?
SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS AMERICA, INC. (“SAMSUNG”)
warrants that SAMSUNG’s devices and accessories
(“Products”) are free from defects in material and

Be careful I bought one of these last week and it didn't have an s pen. A bit ticked off but amazon gave me credit to buy an s pen at my local store. There's 2 very minor scratch on the bottom but not very noticeable unless you really look. Also some light bleed. Otherwise the tablet is fine. Considering it has some scratch I would assume it was a returned used unit. Still not a bad deal but I'm a bit concerned. I was able to register the device so I'm good with warranty coverage I assume.

Be careful I bought one of these last week and it didn't have an s pen. A bit ticked off but amazon gave me credit to buy an s pen at my local store.

Yeah I hear ya, that's why I looked for one that only had the description that said the packaging was damaged. They were right on, my tablet is perfect. Minimal light bleed and not a scratch on it. I think that all units are going to have a little light bleed, its just the nature of the beast. The missing s-pen is a fluke I'm sure.
I am assuming the same things about warranty, they would never know if I bought this used if I am the first one to register it... So warranty should be fine
