So Google has the 8 Gig for $300 and the 16 gb for $350, but prices from T-mobile and other online retailers and ebay seem to be around $400-$450. Am I missing something here?
You're not missing anything, it's cheapest at Google play, other companies gotta make a profit somehow

just buy it from GOOGLE PLAY!
There is a benefit from buying through tmobile instead of doing rma you can use there insurance and it cost five dollars to have it overnight to you instead of having to have a hold placed on a credit card

They want to make some profit by selling more for it than it is in the Play Store. Google doesn't make money when they sell the devices at such a low price for a high end device. That's why it's cheaper to buy on the Play Store.

If Sam's Club here has them for $399 I'll be all over it, I doubt it though.
You cannot price comp with the online site prices are always different from the local stores where the price is set by location and area thats how walmart system is set up when it comes to pricing

I didn't think this expiring deal was worthy of its own thread, but a pretty good deal nonetheless- MacMall is selling Wifi Xoom Tablets on eBay for $499.99 for the next couple of hours. The deal is featured on the eBay homepage. Looks like MacMall may collect sales tax no matter where you live in the US.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Motorola-XOOM-32GB-Android-3.0-Wi-Fi-Internet-Tablet/260775162807
Free shipping. 30-day money-back, buyer pays return shipping.
From a brief check, I think they charge tax for these states: CA, TN, MN, IL, NY, WI, NC
I just saw an artikle @ netbooknews.com about a leaked Xoom 2

I saw the same thing. I figure you really get what you pay for with this.

Going to have to agree. Save your money.

Frys has a lot of nice products I lived by one, but also a lot of cheap knockoffs of big brand name things; you may get what you pay for with this, only 99$ worth of a tablet, usually they do this to get rid of ones that aren't selling that good in the stores.
From the pictures, it looks like a chinese Ainol tablet- not sure about the model.
These tablets are quite OK- they are good enough to use as ebook reader, browse the net, play some casual games and the such. It has no GPS/BT/3G but can be connected by tethering to cellphone, and it can be connected to USB storage devices such as flash memory, external 1TB hard drive etc.
It is not an iPad, or one of these flashy tablets with 10.1" screens, but it is also a fraction of the price and of the weight.
If you're looking for something that is relatively lightweight, not expensive (stolen? Broken by the kids?) and can function for simple tasks- why not?
I bought one. Reviewed here: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/showthread.php?t=40176

Same goes for me. Bought my N7 from Staples on Thursday and got the $25 credit
I just bought one and my email said the offer was valid until somewhere in 2013. Looks like it got extended.
Just got mine yesterday and I to have a credit.

Nice for you, I bought it right away when
it came out and I didn't got any 25$ :crying:
If I buy a Nexus 7 from the UK Play Store, will I get the £15 credit too?
Bought my C9O model from a Gamestop store on the 4th and got my credit :highfive:
honor 5X is $119.99 on Amazon if you are a Prime member for today
Got mine earlier for $79.99 plus tax with free same day delivery. If you have an amazon credit card use VISA30 at checkout for $30 off. If you have never tried audible they have a promo to try it free AND they give you $10 off a future purchase. 120-30-10=$80+tax

Joining the community
I thought it was a nice deal and ordered it, so I just wanted to say hi to the community!
I bought one as a backup phone/unlocked phone for France. Most of the LTE bands for France are covered.
Anyone else think we will see a load of new people with the device by this weekend? I know alot of at&t friends who bought one including myself buying two just to get back into development and mods.
I think we will see a boost in Development forums but also a boost in bricks of people using adb, maybe a tool should be developed for the steps after getting the code from huawei? Just a thought.
So I went to the amazon page and looked up the price of Oneplus 5. On their site is for $539 but on amazon it is more expensive. Then Looked up the Galaxy S8 (Which if it was cheaper I would buy it instead of the Oneplus 5 ofc) is almost the same price. With $25 difference. This is so crazy I almost started dying.

dont fall for marketplace seller.. i saw the op3 for 800$, the op5 for 1000$ on ebay...
Be Careful
Why do you say the OP5 is more expensive than the S8? It's clearly $639 vs $666....
It's just a marketplace seller trying to make an extra buck
Very Nice!!
