Where to buy Nexus 4 in US? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My an acquaintance is going to US in a few weeks and i want him to buy a Nexus 4 for me. But i need a shop to buy Nexus 4, a physical shop not online. Is there a shop like this to buy N4 with cash? Just i heard T-Mobile is selling, but 500$+tax is an expensive price.

I recently read online that it would be available via Walmart. Best bet is to call locations in the area and ask for the electronics department. Other stores like Fry's or best buy may have it as well.

So what are you going to do if there is something wrong with the unit? Send it to ASUS for repair?
Both 8gb and 16gb Nexus 7's are being shipped via Google Play within 3 business days now. Plus a lot of retail shops have them in stock as well for instant pickup.
Lot less risky than dealing with an Ebay seller.
Don't do it! I have yet to find a manufacturer anywhere that will validate a warranty from a eBay purchase. If you do buy it from eBay, be sure you don't mind having a device without warranty. Call Asus if you don't believe me (prior to purchase).

[Q] Where To Find Nexus 7 16 GB in New York?

Hello folks,
I got a friend going to New York City and he's going to buy us a Nexus 7 (16GB).
Can you guys please tell me what stores have it in stock? He was in Canada and couldn't find it anywhere.
Your best bet is to keep an eye on Radioshack and Staples.
Radioshack DOES NOT stock the N7 in stores at all, but if it goes back in stock online, you can order with ship to store.
It was out of stock this past sunday, I bought it when it went back in stock monday morning, its out of stock again now.
I picked free (standard) shipping, ship to store. It shipped Tuesday and I picked it up yesterday after it arrived at Radioshack around 5:40pm.
Staples DOES stock the N7 in stores, but in very limited quanitites. You can use their site to check if its in stock at their stores or not.
Always give them a call first though, dont just go to the store assuming the site is up to date.
B&H, Adorama, and Gamestop stock the N7 as well but theyre all sold out for a while it seems.

Looks like nobody has it in stock but your friend might get lucky. The poster above me said it all. Im in NY and after checking all of the local stores I finally had to order it from the play store. Walmart also carries them so have your friend check them too.
Heres an article that lists where to get them from http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2407732,00.asp
I got my N7 at a staples but in 8gb. Some stores in fort Lee, the Bronx or Manhattan might have the 16gb one

He only has to call one of each store and have them check their system for inventory of nearby stores. It's quick and easy that way.

Try micro center on Long Island, Westbury, NY. it's about 45 mins outside of the city to the east. I got my Nexus 7 16GB version a few weeks ago, At that time they had over 25 in stock. Would recommend you give them a call...
Staples on 104th street and Atlantic has them in stock. I bought 2 of the 16gb versions couple days ago.

Hi guys,
I have the same request, since in a couple of week I will go to NY for 3-4 days. Where could I find a physical store to buy a 16GB Nexus 7, in Manhattan?
I would prefer a physical store so that I can also have it tax free...
Unfortunately I see that Best Buy does not sell this device. Have you got another name?
Thank you,
giopas
EDIT: apparently GameStop would be the solution. I still do not know if I will pre-order it and make it shipped at the nearest shop or rather I will just try to buy at the store once arrived.
Micro Center in Yonkers. Just got mine today

Staples or Gamestop. You can also try stores like Adorama, B&H or Datavision.
Good evening, I have a friend in Greenwich Ville in New York and I asked her to buy a Nexus 7 16GB for my son, but she is not finding any stores that are selling, she was at Best Buy and found there. Someone could tell me where she could find the Nexus 7 with more easily?

so many people living in New York I want too! I don't know why people are searching for Nexus 7, I think it is more difficult to find lets say.. a nexus 10 right? Now I can see Nexus 7 in many stores ^^
From official webpage it is 199 16gb and 250 32gb.. I bought mine for 222 (thinking it was the 16gb version and the shop added 23€ as margin) but then I realised it was the 32gb version and asked why it was so cheap compared to official price.. I still think all of those nexus 7 are defective or something :/

Australian Nexus 4 price if I trade in my Nexus S?

As the title says, I was wondering how much the Nexus 4 would cost if I traded in my Nexus S at any store in Australia that would sell this beast.
The Nexus 4 that I want is the 16GB version which will be $400 in Australia, but could anyone give a rough estimate of the Nexus 4 price if I traded in my Nexus S for it?

Places actually trade phones here? Never noticed that... Anywho, if they did, I'd really doubt they'd give you too much off considering it's trade-in (my guess is as good as yours but don't expect any more than what you'd get by selling the Galaxy Nexus yourself). I mean take a look at game consoles, they have horrid trade-in deals and just aren't worth it unless it's really just collecting dust.
If you sold it yourself, you could probably sell one $200-$250 at the moment depending on how quickly you want it to sell. Maybe use that for an estimate on the trade-in price.

I agree to this previous post, I don't live in Australia but for us, european citizens, problematic is the same.
Google will sell the Nexus 4 for €350 including tax + approximately €10 S&H.
Some distributors are on this price, they are buying a new...new..new Nexus S without any defects €63.
Today, an average Nexus S can be sold around €150, €180 maximum.
Well for me, that's a fair price considering I'll get a lot of money for Christmas (Minimum $200) and that money + trading in Nexus S = barely any of my own money for the Nexus 4. And I know some stores that trade, otherwise, selling my Nexus S would be another option.

Hopefully it's not like an EB Games trade-in and you get $5 off the price of the Nexus 4 when you trade in six old phones and a bunch of accessories with it, too! Haha. Which store would you go to to trade it in, though? I can't think of any stores in Australia that would let me trade in my older phone for a better price on a newer one. I think Mobicity do it but they are just an online store.
My first choice is JB Hi-Fi, and because they have the SGS 3 and Nexus 7, the chances are that they'll sell the Nexus 4. If they don't do trades, I might still buy it but $400 is pretty expensive for me. I was wishing that it would be $350 like it is in America, but Australia almost always gets a more expensive price
My second choice would be at my local shopping centre and keep searching until I find the right store. If I can't find a single store that sells the Nexus 4 and accepts trades, I'll just sell my Nexus S.

I don't believe JB do trade-ins for phones (I know they do for games). And about the price thing, it's really not that much more compared to America. We have GST included in the shown price whereas they don't so you have to add their state tax (not sure on the percentage but it comes out to be pretty close).
Hmmm... I might ask JB Hi-Fi about the Nexus 4 price :/
Then my other two options are:
1. Sell my Nexus S
2. See if JB Hi-Fi (Or any other store) can do any offers

The price should be about the same every (~$400 for the 16GB version and ~$350 for the 8GB one). Anywho, good luck!

New Nexus 7 - Will it be available in stores on 7/30 or only for pre order?

As the title states, I'm trying to figure out if I will be able to grab one at the store on the 30th or will it only be shipping on the 30th?

I think its only going to be in stock to order online on the 30th.
Pretty certain they said in stores on the 30th and available for online purchase (not preorder) on the 30th.
Most stores already have stock (thus how some were already able to get them from OfficeMax).

In store to purchase on the 30th.
yea. you should be able to pick them up tuesday from sams, walmart, best buy, staples, office max. shouldn't be too hard. I just hope they have 32gbs in stock.

Yeah they are staying instock, and if true they should have the shipments either on the 24-26th in store and possibly on display on the 26th as the earliest. Just from what that note on officemax was sent out.
Its more of a question will you be able to get the 32Gig in store... I would hope so but I didn't want to chance it ordered from BB get my free shipping and delivery on the 30th
I think you had to pay for $15 express shipping to get it on the 30th. I'd do the same but I'm going to be out of town next week, so I'll have to buy it locally. I'm sure Best Buy and stuff will have both models. I can't see them leading with just type again.
We're getting very, very concerning news over here in Europe. Someone please say it'll also debut on Play store come next week, Germany, UK, Spain...

Discounted, Silver Member. Sorry was $6 for express.
Some stores now have it in stock; I picked up a 32GB from BestBuy in ATL at lunchtime.
As the person above stated some best buys already have them in stock. Look at the product page on best buy.com and put store pickup. Once you enter your zip it will tell you who does/doesn't have them

Will the in-store ones be Wi-Fi only? I was looking at getting one of the old 7's but I wanted data and they could only be ordered online...just curious

I don't know if the data ones are available yet, online or otherwise. I picked up a 32gb one from Best Buy during lunch in New York. They're in stock at most NYC stores.
I bought the new nexus 7 today at Best Buy as well.
16GB WiFi model. $250 after taxes

Oddly, all the best buys in the bay area were out of stock as of last night except for Marin...
Got two at staples. $199, have had a tf700 for a while but it is for sale. Nexus 7 blows it away.

Game Stop has them, used my PUR points for $25 off coupon and some credit yesterday.
Got my 32gb from Best Buy on Friday, I was the only person I saw there buying one besides one other person. The guy said they had a crap load of them too. Sacramento btw.
Walmart had the 32G in stock yesterday at one local store.
Didn't check others.
You know what? I bet a lot of people are going to be pissed come Tuesday when they're supposed to be released and there are none available cause we bought them all.

How much will you get for your Nexus 4?

So, I'm assuming a large number of you will buy the Nexus 5 when it comes out. My question is this: How much do you plan to ask for your Nexus 4, assuming you plan to sell it. Do you think the fact that the Nexus 4 is sold out and obsolete will have any impact on your asking price, or more importantly, on the price a buyer agrees to?

Check out sites such as eBay, Craigslist etc. to get an idea of what to sell the N4 for. Also keep in mind that the condition, accessories (box, original charger etc) and GB version, possibly even color (white or black version) all increase/decrease value.

They are still available here brand new, I just upgraded to one for free but they are selling for $300 unlocked with a plan (no contract though).
So I doubt you could get much over $250 with the way people are around here. That's Canadian $$ too lol
I will ask $224.67. I will get $213.92.
As an example, I sold my GNex for €150, I could probably sell my N4 for €250.
Then again, I just got it, so I wont
I asked to trade in my Nexus 4 at one of my local shops and they said they can't take it because apparently the serial number sticker is not there. I didn't think it was in important at all. Just peeled it off when it faded. Does that mean you can never resale without that back sticker. That can't be a reason to order a replacement surely.

$200-250 will probably be the market value in the USA once the N5 comes out. What other phones with similar specs and popularity are there? The closest competition are used Galaxy S3s (which I think is inferior to the N4).
