Hi there!
I just purchased a Nexus 7 FHD 32GB from scan for £239.99, Their site says i will get it on the 28th but it has not been marked dispatched yet, and release date for UK is the 30th. So all you UK customers come out and say what deal you got where and how you intend to purchase your brand new baby. Make this a thread for all UK customers to see where and how they can get their nexus 7, and if you have had issues, tell us your story.
I will update OP for any info that may need to be at top.
For an overview of the Nexus 7 and Chromecast release check this video.
DEALS
16GB
Tesco Direct: £199 LINK
SCAN: £199.39 LINK
32GB
Tesco Direct: £239 LINK
SCAN: £239.18 LINK
I think the launch date is the 28th for UK. I have pre-ordered from Tesco - 16G wifi only for £179 (including the bank holiday offer of £20 off tesco direct). Tesco states launch on the 28th, expect delivery before 2nd. Hoping it might arrive by the weekend but probably depends on volume of preorders.
Yeah, UK launch is tomorrow, 28th. I plan to walk nonchalantly into my local Argos and pick one up in the morning.
Ebuyer shipped mine to me last week, had 2 of them in my hands by Friday
I ordered mine from Amazon.co.uk, 32 GB, shipped to NL for 299 euro.
Estimated delivery time August 30/31.
Does anybody knows a site in the UK where the nexus 7 is available that ships internationally and also uses Paypal for paying?(Other then Ebay)
I chased my currys pre-order today. They still had it down for delivery after September 13th, they pushed the order through as they did have stock but said it would be delivered in a couple of days. Being impatient as I am in asked them to cancel the order and ordered from ebuyer who have plenty in stock.
It's due for delivery tomorrow now and I can't wait to get my hands on it! I might have accidentally upgraded to the 32gb model in the process but shhhh... I haven't told the missus yet, I'm hoping she won't notice!
Had anyone else ordered from currys?

I live in Belgium
Purchased mine from Ebuyer on Monday and it should arrive Wednesday. Cannot wait.
Just checked the Play Store out of curiosity - the new Nexus 7 is live. I presume it went live at midnight. Ordered mine from Ebuyer though, to get it on Thursday.
Any discount code from the retailers? Planning of getting the 32GB WiFi, but considering LTE.

I know it's not relevant but holy sh*t... the Nexus 4 is £199 now. On topic, my Nexus 7 should arrive in the next few hours. :good:

well ebay would be the only option for u atm pixel deals does delivery within eu. by the way if u have any friends living in uk ask them if they would send one out for you

Mine should arrive this morning, just a few hours, I hope the ones in the uk are a fresh batch with lower defect rate. It seems the prices have levelled off at £199 for 16GB and £239 for 32GB, I have not seen the LTE variant yet but i believe that would go for £299 32GB, but again i am not sure. :laugh:
I paid for the Express AM service from Parcelforce on Ebuyer so it might be here in the next hour or so. I literally cannot wait.

You can buy from Amazon.co.uk.
They deliver internationally.
I placed my order yesterday to ship to The Netherlands.

Yes but I only can buy with paypal and they don't work with that.
is this a good and trustworthy site for buying the nexus 7; http://www.tiptopelectronics.co.uk/ ?
Got mine in PC World this morning, after going Click & Collect and getting the whole dickhead salesman monologue- "You should buy one of these MiFi things so you can go online on the go despite having just told me you have a 1GB mobile allowance for tethering and rarely use more than 200MB of it", "Oh you need to buy antivirus, whenever you go online with it you could catch a virus", "Here's a case for it [Points to Nexus 7 Mk 1 case], you should totally get one in case you drop it", "You should take out our Piece of Mind plan that's twice what your accidental damage premium is, in case you GET A VIRUS or you DROP IT TWICE".
After all that the ****ing thing had some of the Taiwanese wildlife wedged into the bezel where it got crushed when they installed the glass and the display suffered from major touchscreen fail. Went straight back and got it replaced for a unit which, mercifully, works fine. Great device.
Another UK retailer pricing the 16GB Wifi only 2014 edition at £479.
My colleague reserved the note 2014 edition on Friday at John Lewis Oxford Street in London:
Notification via telephone call when stock arrives, reservations held for 7 days after stock arrival and
best of all no deposit required.
Cashier gave an estimated arrival date of October 14th.
They even managed to grab an inventory screenshot. (Attached)
Strangely, the colour is not specified in the inventory listing.
Exact John Lewis Product code: 86010167 (would advise using the product code to avoid delays & confusion)
Above product code is not currently returning any results on the John Lewis Website.
Not sure if the product is on the system across all John Lewis store or only at Oxford Street.
All the best......
Great find! I'm slightly more optimistic now, I was worried we'd be getting it in November like Canada. I have quite a few friends who work in John Lewis so I'll do some interrogating I think! No word on a 32GB model?
INTERNET EXPLORER!!! Save this computer by installing chrome!!
BTW is it 479 with VAT? If yes, How much would it be w/o? tnx

That would be with 20% VAT, so excluding VAT is ~£399.
I just received the following email from John Lewis Customer Service Representative:
Thank you for your enquiry regarding the 32GB Samsung Galaxy Note 2014 with Wi-Fi in black.
We currently do not know when we are likely to receive stock of the above item; however, the product code you provided is for the 16GB model. Although we do not have a date for stock we should receive a consignment of stock in the near future. If you have not already done so your local John Lewis store may be able to advise when stock is likely to arrive.
Available at the Samsung store Westfield!!
Hey Guys!! I happened to be in Westfield (Stratford) today and decided to pop in to the Samsung store to find out when the new Note 10.1 2014 would be in stock.
And it apparently had been in stock from earlier on this week!! They only have the White 16GB wifi version available at the moment, no information/availability regarding any other model/colours, no accessories and it cost £479.00 inc VAT.
I wanted the Black version but mannn I could not wait! Ended up purchased the White one haha, the screen is really awesome took me literally 2 minutes to crack and impulse buy !!

I can move apps to the SD card on my galaxy S4 so the tablet should do the same.
I hate to burst anyone's bubble, but it looks like the UK will not be getting it until November, although the 16GB white model may be out a bit earlier:

I'm trying to decide between these two listings on eBay:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SAMSUNG-G...ROID-4-3-/380740516313?_trksid=p2054897.l4276
I would go for the US listing, but I need it by the 26th (when I go on a trip to Beijing, need something to watch all my movies on!)
Gone for the latter, don't like the white. Would have really liked 32GB but 16GB should be enough for two or three movies and all my apps.

I found an ebay seller selling the 32gb from the US - however he ran out but assured me hw would have some more on wednesday.
Its just irritating that we can get it outside the UK but not in the country.
o you have to pay any vat if ordered from europe?
The 16Gb version is also available on the German Amazon website and seems to be shipping to the UK
They don't seem to have the 32GB in Black though, but you can order the others for store pickup
Save £20 off the marked price.
Enter code IPADTAB20 at checkout for home delivery orders. For reserve & collect orders please ask in store.
Not available in conjunction with any other offers.
Hurry! Offer ends Tuesday.

You can pick it up next day by using the pay and collect method
I wasn't sure if I wanted one of these or not, the £20 off was enough to sway me though! Arriving tomorrow!
Currys and PC World both have the Black 32Gig one now to order online, so be quick if you want £20 off.

I ordered a 32GB Black one on the 4th, picked it up today. No email with courier tracking, just an email today to say it was at the store to pick up.
Update for guys looking to buy from Taiwan. Don't buy from 23port. He doesn't have the phones available, he takes your money and then waits for Asus to get them in stock. This is the email response I got from him about my purchase
"We have received your payment on Mar. 28, and we will check the available time with Taiwan ASUS and update you soon, and we will provide tracking number after shipment. Please kindly note. Have a nice day."
I contacted eBay after that and they are taking action against his listing since in their words "he is luring people in to buying an item he doesn't have, without stating it's a preorder and that he doesn't actually have the item".
Just wanted to give a heads up since I'm now at the mercy of either getting a refund from the seller or waiting until the 7th for buyer protection to kick in.
You might want to ask sellers if they actually have the item in stock, it's not guaranteed that they will answer truthfully, but these guys are taking people's money and sitting on it until Asus Taiwan has stock available. Who knows how long that could be in all honesty.

I ordered from him Thursday and my phone arrived Today. There were two listings. One preorder, the other one showed availability. Not saying this wasn't your case but I had a totally different experience with him
^^
Same here I ordered and got mine in 2 days, FedEx express
Well I ordered the 4GB with 32GB storage for 350 plus 25 fedex shipping. Ordered it Friday morning my time, asked him today about the status and that's when he said he had to contact Asus about the availability and would let me know. None of the ads I've seen by him have said anything about preorder. Maybe when you ordered he had supply but now he doesn't. If he had supply he would have shipped my phone already and wouldn't have said he needs to contact Asus and that he'll update me.

I didn't think you were but some people might. I was hoping I'd have it within two days like every one else but that's not the case I guess. I can't wait weeks to get a phone unfortunately. I'm thinking that some of the other sellers don't have supply either, that's why they're putting the delivery date so far out. They're hoping people will buy expecting delivery in mid April and that gives them enough time to wait for more stock from Asus.

There are some sellers with the delivery date as Apr. 10th-Apr. 21st. Which gives plenty of time for them to wait on new stock while you're waiting for the end of April to get it.

That really sucks. I will tell u this: phone is solid. Only disappointment is the battery cover. Feels like cheap plastic simulating a metal brush finish. Looks like it may break when prying apart to insert sim card and SD. Really glad I got a case for it.

I have another warning: Don't buy from OE USA (advertising on Amazon) either. They're selling an entry level ZE500CL as ZE551ML as they specified the phone. Luckily Amazon has good customer protection but you may face a lot of troubles buying totally false phone.

By the way what is g19800720?
I guess I learned my lesson well. I'm returning cheap entry level phone which was sold on Amazon as a ZE551ML. At least partially you can blame all mess on Asus, which would never provided clear specs of variety of models around.
Now I'm quite positive that currently you can't buy any other ZE551ML than Taiwanese. And right now Asus has in production European (ww) model which will be on the market in France and Italy at the end of this month (on the web as well). And maybe Chinese model will be selling at the same time too.
Later, probably at the end of May after announcement in the event in New York the US model is coming to the market. And that's pretty all.

To those on the verge of purchasing,
Just got an email showing the Redmi Note 2 Prime (32GB) being on sale for the next few days.
Oddly enough, the black version is $10 cheaper than the white one: http://www.gearbest.com/cell-phones/pp_229218.html?vip=56770
I've been waiting for a special offer to pop up before I bite the bullet and buy it, this may very well be it!
P.S. Not sure what the policy is on referrals, but I like to be direct, so using that link will only help me get a discount on the phone itself, it doesn't seem to award any commission.
But also remember, you will never know if what you are ordering is in stock or not. Until nothing arrives at your address. Be warned before using Gearbest.com
Sent from my Moto G 2014 using Tapatalk
Gearbest is so shady and I will never use them again, I'd recommend staying far away.
I ordered a Chuwi Vi10 64GB w/ keyboard case on 9/11/15; I had to do the "sketchy" ID verification also, but they took my order and my money.
I received a broken keyboard on 10/2/15 , and over 30 days later, still no tablet.
Now the replacement keyboard is out of stock.
They suggest I find an alternative keyboard to replace it (for a custom keyboard/case made for the tablet, WTF!).
I've re-ordered the tablet & keyboard from banggood.com, got my fingers crossed.
P.S. Techtablets has other user reviews for Gearbest, they pretty much suck!!!
I also suggest to stay away from gearbest.... I cancelled my order because it appeared as "processing" for too many days.
They answered my tickets with delay and always with generic apologies but never gave me a real dispatch date. As I heard there are many people waiting for their redmi note 2 I assume they just don't have enough pieces in stock (despite they show all the phones as available).
I still have another order made on 09/27 yet "processing".
I didn't cancel it only because those are 20$ of accessories for my xiaomi yi and in this case I don't care to wait too long, but still this tells me how efficient they aren't with their business.
I'm still waiting for my redmi note 2 from gearbest.com I ordered on 30th September. How long after cancellation did you receive refund? As of now they don't seem to want to answer my ticket!
Sent from my Moto G 2014 using Tapatalk
08OCT I asked to cancel the order and be refunded
09OCT They replied asking me if I would prefer to be refunded or get a GB credit
09OCT I say I want the amount to be refunded into my Paypal account
12OCT They confirmed the order was cancelled and refund processed (they said to wait 3-5 working days)
12OCT Got notification from Paypal about refund
12OCT Refund available into my paypal account
Before coming to the forums and reading this, I ordered one from this site (though it was before the sale). So far it has been smooth, as yesterday it shipped. Hoping now that there's a phone somewhere in that package...
I've ordered a Redmi Note 2 16 GB from Gearbest. Took them about a week to dispatch my phone and another week to get it(used a faster cargo choice).
The only issue i have with the phone is bloatware which everyone seems to be having but other than that the phone is stable and fast.
Just buy the TDD version to get a discount
Geekbuying has it on sale too, only for 10 days

I just ordered the 32 gig version from geek buying hopefully their better than gear best! Does anybody know if it works on T-Mobile/Metro PCS?
Thumbs up experience with everbuying.net for me.
The problem with gearbest and many other sites that never have real stock and needs the money from the orders to buy the phones. In some cases the phones are out of stock from the manufacturer and they have to wait. I made the order for the prime the 19st of september and ships the 4th of october.
