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.

Is there any way that I can buy my nexus 7 via PayPal? I can't seem to using the play link that is linked by Google.

I think you'd have to transfer your money to google wallet in order to purchase this. Good luck.

Well for me, i just linked my debit card to google wallet. So I'm guessing in your case, withdraw money from Paypal and put it into your bank, connect your debit card to google wallet and pay for it.

I am looking for places that accept paypal also. Staples and Gamestop unfortunately, do not accept it. I'm hoping within a few days of release other online retailers will carry the nexus 7.
A lot of sellers on eBay are taking pre-orders.
In the UK ebuyer.com accepts payments by PayPal and have the Nexus7 for pre-order
I just use PayPal's Debit Mastercard, but I'm not entirely sure if that's available outside of the US
paypal
i just used paypal @ www adorama com to purchase the 16G model.
Hallo,
I'm sorry if this had been asked allready, but i can't find out how ho search only the nexus 7 forum with the xda app.
I just got my nexus. A friend bought it for me in the Google store online while she was with family in the usa. The box was completly sealed. When i signed in, there was another gmail adress mentioned. I thought that was weired, but figured it probably was a Google employee. But now i see that i don't have the store credit and i'm afraid that someone else ook it from me. Or is that offer not available anymore? She ordered it last friday, august 10.

When the N7 is ordered online, you're asked to provide a Google account and it's associated with that account somehow. The $25 store credit winds up getting given to that account.
Since you had a friend purchase it on your behalf, I would expect that your friend inadvertently received the $25 credit.
Aah i see. Well her aunt payed tot it. Do she probably has the credit then. I'll see if i can fix it. I don't think she uses an android device actually, do she can't do anything with the money.
Thanks for the answer.

Does anyone know if there will be anywhere else to buy the nexus 4 besides the play store at the same price? I would love to use PayPal instead of Google wallet. I sold some phones to be able to get this but that money is in my Paypal account and its kinda a pain to get it into my card i have in my wallet account. If anyone knows, please reply. Thanks guys, and I'm getting excited!

Problem is on eBay they'll be $500 lol. I wasn't the 16gb model at $350. Thanks, maybe I'll get lucky and it'll be the same price on eBay.

i would also like to buy it from somewhere else like i did with the nexus 7 that i bought from macmall with no tax, and free shipping, for 249 exactly, it would be nice if other places sold the 16gb for 349, no tax, no shipping. also i am not complaining about the price, i know it is already cheap, but cheaper wouldn't hurt.
Just wanted to ask cause I am gonna get the tablet in a few days.

$25 credit for new N7 stopped in September.

Interesting part is, I bought my nexus 7 32gb in Japan.
During the setup process it asked me to enter my data for Google Wallet.
Message was: my credit card doesn't qualify for the 2000 Yen credit, but basically it seems in some regions there is still promotion

As others have said, it's expired. Here's the relevant page, courtesy of a "$25 google play credit expire" Google search: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2670129
As I got a n7 2012, I should get 25$ 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...
See...
