Should be 9x3= 27 -2 from "da w0men" = 25 (discounted price) , not 27+2=29.

well, if you're looking for a blatantly sexist answer, she's a liar like all women are and actually took 3 dollars.
but "chavonbravo" has a better answer

They is n0t B pay'n eevn nin, dat gurl keeps tooo wit twentee ate <---, twentee ate divideded buy nin is be nin wit a dot and dem threez. Won d00d is be pay'n moor den dem oters. Dey be owin hym.
Translation:
They didnt pay 9 even, she kept 2 leaving 28, 28/3=9.333333333333333. One guy paid .01 more, the other two owe him.

haha
every0ne wit a diff ansWer if u w0rk it 0n Paper u chek n0thing is missinG

Easy...The goverment took it for taxes...
Seriously though, this comes out the same with any number that can't be divided by 3 evenly if the refund is $4-$8.
A $4 refund looses $2 (9x3=27 +1 =28).
A $7 refund looses $5 (8x3=24 +1 =25).

(10x3)-5 = 25
(30-2-(1x3)) = 25
so all the money is accounted for....

Best price for Diamond 2 ??

Is this the best price for a Sim Free HTC Diamond 2?
http://www.laughingdeals.com/all-deals/htc-touch-diamond-2-sim-free-unlocked-mobile-phone-pound-380-delivered.html
Seems a good deal to me (ends at midnight)...
Hmm it's not impossible... only £20 less than where I got mine from (Clove)
And if its a one day deal...
For some reason the link works but I can't see the page. Anywho.... Clove has the best price I've seen and that is where I am buying from. £359 which includes shipping to US. (If my conversion is right that's about $520USD)
I can't wait!!!

@ HTC Touch Freak - do your math again - its about $522
@ jimbo2000 - VAT is not chargeable on export devices, but he may get hit with import taxes.

It is £342 and shipping is £17 I was told so £359
Yep, don't have to pay VAT if it's being exported.

I hope I don't get hit with import taxes. Havn't on any other Items or phones I've ordered from over seas. The trick is for them to ship it as a gift. Also depends on what shipping service they use..... I think.
If not I feel very lucky to get it for that price. Especially when on Ebay and other sites they are selling it for $700 USD and up.... what a rip.

whats federal paper?
I dont know exactly...
I dont know exactly if in your country exist that federal paper...
Here in Mexico it does exist... its like...
I buy 10 CETEs (it exist) it cost to me 9 mexican pesos very one so the mount I spend was 90 pesos... the cost of that paper is 10 MXN why does the cete costs to me 9 pesos?
Easy... the cete... is a solid federal paper... i mean the federal guberment sold that paper telling they gonna pay for that paper 10 pesos at sometime later... the period is 30 45 60 days... so the demand of cetes with the less time to pay for it are xpensive than the larger one... cause ist payable faster.. the gubern has fast money, easyway, so if my cetes are 45 days... I will sold them again to the gubern on 100 mxn at day 45... so I win 10 mxn in 45 days... but if i buy millions of cetes? i will win more and its doesnt lose its value.. cause its supported by the entire country!
BTW i dont have millions... so i cant buy cetes...

How much does gasoline cost where you live?

The cheapest gas around me that I've seen is $4.03 last week it was $4.11, that's US dollars. Gas is just flat out outrageous. I spend 400 dollars just on gas per month, making minimum wage as a student.

Converted to US Dollars, the price of petrol here is ~$9.00+ a Gallon.
So you think you have it bad?
Here in Western Australia its about US$5.2/us gallon, what kind of car do you have to burn though all that per month?

Riddle for you all

You see a shirt for £97.
You borrow £50 from your mum and £50 from your dad = £100.
You buy the shirt and have £3 change.
You give £1 to your mum and £1 to your dad and u keep £1.
You owe both your mum and dad £49 = £98. You still have a pound = £99. Where did the other pound go?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
There is no other pound, it only looks like one is missing because of looking at it the wrong way.
In the end you have a debt of 98 pounds (2x49) on one side and on the other side you have a shirt of 97 pounds plus 1 loose pound. Both sides come up to 98 pounds.
No missing pounds...

Alright, I'll solve it.
First you have £100, you use it to buy a shirt worth £97, you get £3 change.
You cannot just split 97 in half and round it to 49 euros each, one person has to have paid a dollar more, so its £48+£49=£97, with £3 as change.
You gave back £1 to each of your parents, meaning your mom got her £50 (£49+change) back, and your dad got his £49 (£48+change) back, the £1 you're keeping is the missing change. You don't be greedy and give back one of the £1 you got as change from the shirt and your dad will get his £50.
capiche?
Lets face it... the parents get nothing back...
Had to check if I was in off topic.... nope I'm not.

You just made the problem harder. €1~£0.83~$1.32
Indeed you can't split £97 into €49 for each parent. And where did the person get the dollar from, did they exchange €0.75 for $1?
If you're willing to pay 97 whatever for a shirt....
Where that last single unit of currency went is the least of your worries...

LOL. Thats so true in my case

No Nexus in Belgium and the Netherlands!

The nexus 4 will not be available in Belgium and the Netherlands!
Seriously! Do we live in Narnia?!
The official reason for this decision which LG claims is that due to the great success the unit only in a limited number of countries will be offered for sale by a retailer or a provider. Because the device turns out to be so popular, would otherwise supply problems. Unfortunately, Belgium and the Netherlands is not in the selected countries.*
Android World thinks that there's more to it. LG is according to them not to wait for a Nexus 4 with a low price. This unit would be downright compete with the LG Optimus G, a device with similar specifications. If this LG smartphone will offer a price of 500 euro or more, and then you put a Nexus 4 of say 350 euros in addition, you are quickly finished choosing. The Optimus G does have an advantage with respect to the Nexus 4, namely a 4G connection.*
It is clear that this decision of LG another blow to the mark when it comes to smartphones. The brand stood there, mainly because of the faulty software, though not good for the Android Users, and will this decision be totally lose faith in the brand. LG will all need to put the trust of the Dutch and Belgian consumers to recover.*
Now we can only hope that Google will intervene, because countries like the Netherlands and Belgium are thus very disadvantaged. Firstly, we still lack a full Google Play Store, and then Dutch and Belgians by LG also deprived of the opportunity to set the unit in a different way to buy.

Wanted to buy one too today!
I'm not going to buy one for €599 at other retailers.
Going to wait for the new nexus then, google kinda screws us over with the playstore.
*Oh yeah forgot to mention "Creditcards" (not used alot here)*
Madly pissed I am, unbelievable how "arrogant LG can be", as said by someone. For all our Dutch readers my reaction on AndroidWorld:
Wat vies zeg. Eerst Nederlanders en andere inwoners van de Benelux goede hoop geven dat dit toestel, hoewel wat duurder, toch naar ons komt en net op het laatste moment voor de eerste release dit afbreken, uitermate teleurstellend. En dit alleen maar omdat LG, hoogstwaarschijnlijk, compleet handelt vanuit eigenbelang. Nu vind ik dat ze de ontwikkeling nog beter naar een merk als Panasonic hadden kunnen doorschuiven! Ik was in de eerste plaatst al niet erg onder de indruk van LG, maar nu moeten ze zoals gezegd wel iets heel moois voor elkaar krijgen om het vertrouwen in de consument te herstellen.
Dat wordt waarschijnlijk een retourtje Duitsland voor mij.

I feel you guys pain!! I live in Belgium, got through to the US order via VPN and then they cancelled my order 10 minutes later saying they won't deliver to my parents address in the US. I live 15 minutes from the border near France and should have just gone over there and tethered my Galaxy Nexus to my Nexus 7 via data network and tried to order one that way. I'm so pissed right now at Google!!!!!!
The amount of suck is.. Unbearable. I was hoping they would hit Media Markt or Fnac or whatever here in Belgium later this month. Nope
Guess I'll have to go make a trip to Germany then...
Yep, gotta buy it in Germany... only a shame that it's about €389 in stores ...
damn i had to choose bitween de note 2 and the Nexus 4. now its easy, give me the note 2 please. Stupid LG or whoever chose to do this
I can't buy in Germany, its too far and I don't have a car
I hope I can buy it on amazon.
Or maybe I have i'll buy the SIII
Maybe after all the craziness settles down, you can ask someone that can buy from the play store to forward you a device.
And any new about Luxembourg? I suggest that we will not recieve it either, since we are smaller than Belgium and the Netherlands but I have to ask.
You pissed off?
I live in croatia, if i buy n4 from germany i have to pay germany taxes and ship, + shiping to me and at last croatian taxes which is un fu*ckable 25%..we dont have any google support or play store..
389€ + 20€ shiping * 1.25 = you will get number which i need to pay for it.

@LaBuenaVida- Thank you! I knew it, and Im still pissed to Google/ LG (Im not quite sure who is to blame). So unfair...
How hard is it to find someone in Germany and ask to buy via Play Store in bulk. I don't know how many maximum we can order.
Then sell it here in Benelux for, let say 389.
The only problem is warranty... I don't know how to deal with that.
Otherwise, it's a nice business opportunity
Oh yeah, fcuk Google and LG,... I am from the Netherlands.

This news = LG, though, if you want, you can blame google for not allowing purchases through the playstore, but seeing as how not many countries can do it, and because you'll continue having an android and use services from google, I think it'd be healthier/better to focus your hate on LG
