I've bought a nexus 4 this Monday in the Media Markt in Ghent and it was 430€, though this was the normal price in Belgium. Since the price was dropped yesterday I felt quite cheated so I bought a new one from Germany. It will cost me 275€ in total (with shipping fees) and I will save 155€, which is quite significant! I've posted how I ordered the phone from German Google play on tweakers.

Did you get it in Zwijnaarde or Oostakker? Just for science.
I got mine in march for 395€ in Aachen,Germany. I asked in a mediamarkt in Belgium why it is so much more expensive and he said it has something to do with taxes. I guess it is just MM who knows that some people dont qant to go to Germany or dont want to import a phone...

In Zwijnaarde. 400€ in march is reasonable, but the MM still hasn't changed it price in half a year. I know it was quite stupid to buy one there, but it was in my hands and wanted it badly. It's going back tomorrow and I hope they give me a voucher for it. My other nexus is being processed by google. Hope I get it quickly.

Didn't really looked for that as I don't need a bumper on my phone. They had a lot of bumpers, but it was the last nexus 4 in their stock, so I don't quite know.
Do you live close to Germany? If yes go there its much cheaper (€329 before the price drop). And if not see if the gas price for driving to germany is still cheaper than the price in Belgium!
Just find the nearest german media markt or saturn.

8 or 16 GB?
Because that's exactly what I paid when buying my 8GB N4 on the German play store.
Also, why do people drive to German stores from Belgium? Is it not possible to order it from the German play store into Belgium? Shouldn't be too much shipping costs within the EU, crossing only one border (certainly less than gas money). If there are any at all. Or does Google restrict this?
Anyway, I heard from other European countries, that the N4 is more expensive than in Germany there, which of course makes it even more expensive than in US stores.

Indeed, google restricts this. This monday I've bought a nexus 4 in belgium for 430 euro (570$ converted). But with the price drop I'm going to turn it back in. My new nexus will cost 275€ and is imported from Germany.

If you can cough up an extra twenty quid you can get a 16gig from Tesco for 189 with a code (ask if you need it) with free next day delivery to a store for collection.
Bought mine straight from google. It arrived the next day.
I got mine from Tesco, ordered it tuesday, picked up from store on the weds.
Tesco are only selling them online, PC world had them instore but seem to be all sold out.... Carphone warehouse is selling them from friday so if you want one on friday, that is the place to go, if you cant get and want to order it, then tesco is the best place, They do free delivery where google charge (and yes you get a free £15 voucher no matter where you buy it from... somthing i didnt realise, i thought you had to order it from google to get the voucher so i was well chuffed..)

8gig from Play store = £169.98 (159.99 + 9.99)
16 gig from Tesco = £189.99 (199.99 - 10)

Hey guys, I'm from Canada and I'm planning to buy a tablet and decided to go with the note because of the multiscreen function and the s pen that could help me in my studies! Anyway my girlfriend parents are going to New Hampshire next week and they said they wouldn't mine buying one for me (obviously I would repay them ).
So I just wanted to know your opinions on either waiting for the note to come in canada (will be available to pre order soon at future shop) or make my gf parents buy one from the US and if so where would be a good place that would have them in stock? I don't want to make them drive everywhere to get it so somewhere not to complicated like a walmart, etc??
Thanks
PS: The sooner I get it, the better it is, I just can't wait anymore!!!!
Sent from my Incredible S using xda app-developers app
I remember driving around everywhere here in Maryland trying to find it when it came out. I could only find it available at Best Buy's, but they were sold out at every location. I tried looking at Office Depot, Staples, Target, and Walmart but the best tablet they were selling was the Tab 10.1 2 or the Nexus 7. I would just check Best Buy online or have one shipped to a store for pickup in NH if they are sold out so they can physically pick it up. Just check shipping times.
Some of these early models have some QC issues like light bleed. You may want to wait and buy it from a retailer who can accept a return if you are unlucky and get a faulty unit.

I got mine from B&H. It's definitely an American company, but it arrived 4 days later (cheapest option) and never seemed to spend any time in customs. The package said that it was from the B&H warehouse... in Etobicoke. I had to pay sales tax, but no duty/customs/import fees.
I'm in Calgary, so 4 days from Ontario is pretty quick! There's no way it could have crossed the border as well.
Anyways, if your girlfriend's parents can't find one in NH, I'd recommend B&H (bhphotovideo.com). I've bought camera stuff from them for years, and I've never had any "surprise" cross-border fees.

I think you guys are missing the point. In Canada the 32 gb will cost you $499. In the US the 16gb is the $499 and the 32gb is $550. So you getting more for your money if you buy it in Canada.

True... I forgot to actually reply to your post when I replied to your post!
The only advantage I can see from ordering from the States is getting the white one, and getting it faster. When I ordered mine in mid-August, Canada wasn't on the horizon. Now that it is though, I might have waited.
On the other hand, I've never come anywhere close to the 16 GB on my Nexus S (it's reading 11 free right now), so I really don't care about the extra space. I do like the white better than the grey, so I'm not kicking myself right now.

500 euro on that website, way too much.
500 is way too much indeed, I'm willing to wait a bit more. 399 dollar = ~315 euros.
A 185 euros difference is way too much.

By importing do you mean to Egypt? I think you'll really have problems getting one shipped to Egypt for $229 total, and tax would generally be up your local authority.

The 229 for the 16gb is before tax and shipping in many states, sales tax percentage differs from state to state and county to county, where some states don't charge a sales tax, and others do. I live in Chicago which is Cook County, and we have one of the highest sales tax percentages in all the US @ 10.25% so if I were to buy a 16gb from a local brick and mortar store it would cost me with tax, about 252.47...all depends where you are in the states....that said I ordered mine off Amazon the wkend right before the launch date, and mine came to be 238, as amazon doesnt charge tax yet in IL (I chose saturday delivery for 9 bux more with prime).

its standard to quote the prices before taxes. the reason is that some states have no tax (as mentioned) and the others all vary wildly as to what the tax rate is. quoting a price with tax would therefore be inaccurate for most...

OR NOT!!! (Read the thread)
Apparently, some of their packages are now sent directly from Hong-Kong...
Which is plain stupid, since there's at least 50% chances that your local customs will hold the package and ask you for extra fees including the VAT.
This, of course, is a normal process when buying from outside the EU. Whenever I order something from Japan or China, I already know that I'll have to pay the customs fees upon receiving my package.
However, Oppostyle claims all around their website that they "ship from the EU" (and this was actually true when I ordered my Find 5 from them a few months ago).
If now they start to randomly deliver orders directly from Hong Kong, they are supposed to inform you before you place your order!
So, watch it if you still wanna buy anything from them.

Here in the US the Find 5 Midnight 32G dropped to $449, mine should be here today!
Bad luck i ordered the Moto G a few days before the deal. R819 would have been a nice deal!
does someone know when the prices will come back to normal?
thanks..
For the Euro shop, those are now the new prices until they're out of stock.

I wouldn't be so sure about that, I've ordered mine on thursday midnight and the Find 5 was shipped from HONG KONG 4 days later. It got stopped at Croatian customs (where I am from). Asking for the amount I payed, full details of the phone, where it was ordered from, some EORI code I had to activate. After this they would charge me VAT (25%) + custom fees. Too much hassle, canceled my order. "Shipping from EU" was one of the biggest reasons I ordered from OppoStyle, and now this happens. They even tried to declare the package is worth 155 USD, but customs are customs.
Not sure where you placed your order, but oppostyle Europe doesn't ship anything from Hong Kong. They ship from the U.k. Hence the free shipping and no custom taxes whatsoever...

I ordered from europe.oppostyle.com. I contacted the support and they said they would refund me the money that I need to pay the customs but only after I pay it. I don't have the money (25% of the price + more). But it wouldn't have come to this if they only shipped it from UK like stated in their TOS and rest of website. I don't know why they choose to mail it from Hong Kong, but it costed them one customer.
That really sucks balls... Sorry that this happened to you, and il hope nobody else will have to deal with that kind of crap!

Not only that but the support hasn't answered in two days (>24 hours) Asked for a full refund.
EDIT: They offered to sent it from EU, finally. Turned out ok, the support is slow but they do their job.
I ordered my Find 5 2weeks ago and it has been delivered in 4 days. No custom trouble as it came from UK.
Just a note about that a friend bought the same after few days and he received the oppo with a different ROM of mine.
