Clove, expansys and hantec will give you a 2 year Samsung warranty if you are in the US. Amazon and newegg won't. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

You get international warranty from some sellers in amazon.com as well. Just search SA-I9100 in amazon and they are around $684. Although I don't know what is the difference between sa and gt models.

If you are on Sprint, then only the sprint version will work on sprint. You can't buy an international version and use it on sprint. So you don't really have a choice, unless you plan on switching.
The international version only works on ATT.

Current price

I just ordered from Newegg for $539.99 two days ago, price dropped to $499.99 last night. Bummer! I negotiated for a $20 discount, so I got it for $519.99. Should get it tomorrow.

cool story bro

When I ordered from handtec.co.uk, the price dropped before it shipped, so they automatically gave me back the difference without me asking.
A company I therefore recommend everywhere.

Shouldve sent it back lol. Expansys dropped 100 couple days after my purchase. Simple choice for them, 100 in my account or a returned item.

Even better is the combo with the bluetooth headset. $495 after a $20 MIR. I was waiting to see what the s3 announcement brought, but that price from a reputable seller...

Expansys has it for 499 now.
Does expansys give warranty for the international version?

I paid 630
Couple of months ago... Yes pricedrops happens sometimes even a day after you purchase..
It's OK forget about that and enjoying your device mate.

$700 back on 01/04

In Italy, last price for an europe guaranty gnote is 429€

Bought mine for € 630,- in november 2011. The first week.

I bought mine in december 2011 at 530 € in Italy.

Are blue and black two different options, or just described differently?
New egg had "blue" for 499 (soldout, but now back in stock at 539). Expansys doesn't mention color, but pic looks like more chrome bezel?

I never said it was? Its a PRE-order page. Was merely highlighting the price in case someone wanted to save a little money.
Nothing wrong with gumtree so long as common sense is used. I.e. cash on collection, no postage of items, no paypal/western union. I've sold quite a few items with no problems.

Don't forget that the price is slightly higher due to the UK's higher vat (20%). The total price including UK vat and delivery as of last night is 480GBP, obviously its pre order though.

I traded in my s3 at car phone warehouse today and got 243 quid for it and my note 2 was 549..so only had to pay 300 for this.
Super impressed.. However bit gutted when I got it home and realised that I had read the USA specs for it which said 4G capable.. And the UK one isn't :-\

According to Three, they are locked and will cost you 15.32GBP to get it unlocked.

Anyone have more info if 3 have them locked or unlocked, I would like to get one from them but need it to work on O2.

My PAYG from Three seems to be unlocked... i put in a Voda PAYG sim, and it got onto the network OK. wasnt able to test calls since no credit on card... was one of the 1st batch on launch day, so they might lock later ones??

02 current brochure have note 2 16gb @ £479.99 dont know if unlocked but i know its not the lte version as thats not out yet...its coming out after oct 15th i think when EE starts rolling...hence why im waiting to see if it supports o2 frequency ready for next years o2 lte...before i buy the 32gb version.

Cheapest Note II buy for the UK

When I was looking for a website to buy my Note II I came across this website that does camera equipment (some smart phones included) for cheap. This is possibly the cheapest I've seen the Note II, at £469.99 with free delivery in the UK. The shipments from Hong Kong, but the website has had nothing but brilliant reviews and they have a local warranty location based in London. Mine is just waiting to be shipped at the moment. The links below if anyone wants to check it out!

Just bought mine from Panamoz for £430 with shipping (got 5% off using BACS).

Yep, +1 for Panamoz. I got mine on the O2 deal on Hotukdeals for around £400 but the Panamoz deal is just as good because you don't have to rely on quidco or tcb.

If you're uncomfortable buying from Panamoz or amazon.de you could check out hotukdeals, good offers sometimes come up on there.

Good luck with any warranty claims on those. Buying from outside the UK you are at the mercy of country of origin warranty or manufacturers warranty which may or may not cover you.
Got mine from Amazon UK. Paid a little more than those prices but I know I'm getting a UK spec device with a full UK supplier warranty covered by the Sale of Goods Act.

Actually they are really good when it comes to warranty, depending on your problem they'll swap you a new phone if they can't find a fix. Because you haven't used them or heard of them, don't make bad assumption of them. I used them for a while a long with my friends and there service is brill, i'm talking about Panamoz. That is why they recieved 4.8 out of 5 from 500 reviews.

£400 brand new from me, I've got my SIM free titanium grey note 2 coming tomorrow from Tesco on contract but I only need this SIM card since getting the nexus now
Ps, the note I'm using now is one I got from amazon that I'm going to return, I'll leave this new note sealed

It is too dear !!
it's too expensive...
In China, N7100 is about ￡420 in Amazon and New Egg etc

Stick with a reliable source such as Amazon, with Amazon you have a 30 days return period. No questions asked policy. So if your device is defective keep swapping until you get a perfect one. For us Amazon Prime users they even send out a replacement the next day and have upto 30 days to return the defective phone now thats good.

So here is what I thinK Panamoz can sell it so cheap because they are goey market handsets g, if there is a problem they will replace it with another grey Markel but they don't Provide VAT receipts • for me it is not safe q chose to buy it from gumtree for cash With bill so that I Can claim Warranty. It's up to you but panama are pretty good as per reviews

+1 for Panamoz here. Excellent sales and after sales service, can't recommend highly enough!

Has anyone actually recieved the phone from panamoz. The deal seems to good to be true. Thinking i might return the one I bought from amazon for 495.

350 for a Refurb Note 8. Good deal?

Hi guys
I've been looking to buy a Galaxy Note 8.0 for quite some time now and I've been looking for the best deal I can get, but for 425+tax in Canada its a little too expensive. I found a refurbished one on eBay totally $350 including shipping & import charge. Do you guys think its a good deal or should I wait a bit to buy it new when some store has a promotion (if they ever do)
What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance for your opinion!

Take a look at the below link, it's a thread on a popular Canadian deals forum . There's a way on how to obtain a coupon for $50 off any tablet over $299 at staples. So your should be able to get it for $379+tax. I believe the coupon is good until July 29.
Im just personally waiting for bestbuy or futureshop to drop the price of the tablet to $379 and use the staples coupon there.
Goodluck and happy hunting.

Awesome thank you! I found a seller on amazon for 399 and he just happens to be 20 minutes away I might go see them today try and get a deal out of them (if I could save tax its enough). If not might have to just price match it as BB and get $33 off...
UPDATE: The coupon for staples won't work for me, thanks anyway man
UPDATE#2: I found a seller on eBay, BNIB for 325 including shipping I got it without hesitation should be here Monday or Tuesday! Thanks guys! I'll see you all around the forum
