I'm so ready to buy this device but i need to know if there's a better alternative than buying from Amazon. Any advice?
Newegg also has it, I think for around the same price.
There are a few places, but, for the price, I would go with someone you have used before. There appear to be a few batches out with some screen issues.
I almost pulled the trigger a week ago, but now that some carrier in the USA "might" be getting it, I'm going to hold off til I can get one in the states, which should bring the price down hopefully for the online stores. I've never had an issue with Newegg, so other than a trusted source from Amazon, Newegg might be where I get one.

Rumor has it that the At&t version will be the same version in Korea with an inferior processor and LTE which doesnt help me since im not near those select areas. Newegg, unfortunately charges taxes in nj.
If that happens, like with the other at&t LTE sammy, I'll just say screw it and get the single button ones online

How reliable is this site and does this come with a US warranty?

The shop has all my trust, Im costumer of they since 4 years.
They only provide warranty on malasya so in case of warranty you need to send it to they.
But you can buy a warranty on squaretrade or something like that
Its best if you buy from a local retailer incaase you get unlucky with the panel lottery.

Same here, got it off ebay for $660 shipped! Hopefully no issues with it. It will be getting delivered tomorrow!!!
Okay...I've been drooling over this phone for the past few weeks. I'm almost ready to pull the trigger...but I'm looking for the least expensive but most reputable online dealer to make my purchase. I'm in the USA so it would have to be imported.
Suggestions? Experiences? Warranty issues? I'm all ears. Let me know what your experience has been with the different online retailers.
Cheers!

Good Point! eBay is probably the one place I haven't looked! Thanks man!
Amazon has a few sellers offering them for around 650. they're also fulfillment so you get free 2 day shipping.
I'm also getting ready to pull the trigger.
If you're just looking for a cheap price, eBay has Australian Notes on sale, which I think is the cheapest of them all due to currency fluctuations.
Anybody know of a seller that does international shipping that has a REALLY lenient return policy? I tend to have horrible luck with displays and don't want to get stuck with one with defects (I once had to return five LCD monitors in a row because each one had more than two dead/stuck pixels! Also, my current Cellphone, a Streak, has an always-on stuck red pixel).
Given the fact that AMOLED screens slowly develop defects, I would really like to find a seller that offers 14+ day return policy with little or no expense on my part, in case I end up making multiple returns.
I found this in another thread but Integrontech has them for $650 also. Here's the link: http://www.integrontech.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-N7000-16GB-Unlocked-Black-p/sam-n7000.htm
I've never used them...so I'm not sure how reputable they are.
I did buy my i9100 from expansys USA and it was perfect! Fast shipping. Never had any trouble with the hardware...so I never dealt with the warranty part. But my experience with them was very good.
Might pay to be a little more patient, I'm thinkin' there will be at least another 50 drop post Christmas.
Just a thought and I could be wrong so...
Be nice to use that extra savings towards accessories though IMHO
When I first started lookin' I couldn't find one below 730.00 so if I can get one for six I can that custom leather case I want and break even there.

From my kick-ass note
seriously dude i'm in the same boat but it's just the smart bet to wait until it is around 550-600
the price is dropping everyday pretty freaking fast.

Paid $699 yesterday from Newegg.
I sure hope my ATT plan doesn't have issues like everyone else is reporting (forcing a tablet plan, forcing tiered data, etc).

Hello! Link please
I've got friends who would buy this for me in either India or Australia.
Where would I have either one of them shop in their respective countries to get me one? Is it worth it, plus shipping, or should I just drop $650 on Ebay? I mean, from what I saw the exchange rate, 35,000 Indian Rupees (MSRP) is $660.
Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Unlocked Cellphone--US Warranty (Blue)

(this phone got no problem with screen!)
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-GT-N7...QL30/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1324089027&sr=8-4
what the hell is blue version ?
I see amazon is listed as an official vendor which makes me curious.
+ there is no warranty on international phones imported to U.S. because the official U.S. versions are the ones sold by the damn carriers via at&t , verizon etc.
There once was a note...

Yeah, I saw that, but the arrival date was in 2012.
Newegg had free 2-day shipping (shoprunner free year trial) and I had a $20 coupon from google.
So, $679 and I'll have it Monday. Plus there is a free charger thingy thrown in, so that's a plus.
I just really hope my unlimited data isn't f-d around with after putting my sim in...

Doesn't the GT prefix indicate the IMEI will be considered a tablet? Some listings omit the GT prefix...I think these are the Polish/Netherland version that doesn't flag ATT as a tablet...
Hmmm...it appears the white one is going for $800 still, while the black(ish) one is $650ish. I'm debating on importing 5 or 6 of these to see if I can pay for mine.
Thoughts?

Expansys-USA.com, which doesn't charge tax in most states, now has the new Nexus devices up for pre-order.
Additionally, you can use MrRebates.com to get 2% cash-back.
Thanks for the heads up. But it doesn't tell me if they will charge me sales tax in California. If I don't know this then it's not worth pre-ordering through them. Can anyone tell me if they do based on past experience?

They don't charge you until you accept the cost once they get their shipment. No risk just pre-ordering and finding out if there's sales tax later
is there any benefit buying this from Expansys vs the Play store besides that you can pre order right now?
Looks like this is for the 8gb model, do they have pre-orders up for the 16gb model?

I'm thinking of doing the same thing. Just weary of putting my bank info out there if I don't have to so I like to know its a sure thing before pre-ordering.
Also want to make sure this comes with a U.S. 1-year warranty from Google. I'm used to Expansys being the place you order foreign phones from and if anything goes wrong you have to ship them over to Europe or whatnot to get them fixed
What do you guys think about the price on Expansys? Will it be much bigger than 300usd compare to the Google Store? If not, I would order it from EU.

Yeah, my order came out to no tax and no charge for shipping.
Ordered it on a Thursday afternoon, was ready to ship by Saturday and got it 4 days later in a small box on my doorstep via FedEx Ground.
Great phone, but looking forward to the Nexus 4 and considering ordering it from them again to save on shipping/tax to California. Plus cash back is available at various sites.

I will sell you my for $180
Samsung's website has replacement charging cradles for $24.99, but they're on backorder.
They do have them in stock on AT&T's site for $25.00.
Got mine today.
Seems identical to the one that came with the Gear:
- NFC
- PC recognizes device
Check the other threads on this, as I posted a 50% discount code from Samsung, and so did another after me. Sorry, but going to bed so can't find and link for you, but do a quick search. Got mine for $17 with tax and shipping, but I recommend ordering 2 when they are back in stock, as shipping is the same I believe.
Cheers!
Back in Stock

UPDATE 1/18/14
They are back in stock at Samsung website. Coupon code (rv18623) still works if you are registered / logged in on Samsung site. Just ordered 2 and does not raise the shipping cost above that for single unit (3.95 US$ I think it was).
EDIT: Got my order confirmation and they DID double up on the shipping

I bought one of these on Amazon under the "Monoy" brand. Works fine, doesn't stay on as well as the original but it is good enough. I got it shipped next day prime for about $33. They seem to be out of the particular one I bought now. There are others you can find via search.

It looks like an original, but can't really say if it really is. Why don't you buy one from store.google.com. I can't find the link, but I have seen a link for European site.
They dont sell to my country
If anyone is interestered, I ordered a genuine EU charger adapter in my local LG customer service shop as mine came with UK type; its 34.90€ italian taxes included (22%).
So the one in the ebay auction, considering shipping costs, is not so cheap.
Mine shows MCS-N04WR. This is the USA version.
