I'm starting to give up trying to get the nook to me in germany.
i ordered the nook at b&n on the 20. jan. now it was going to be delayed by two weeks and off course i canceled it.
at bestbuy its backordered, at wallmart its out of stock, at amazon i cant pay with paypal.
can i order it somewhere else? and do i have to pay sales taxes at ebay?
im from germany,
ive got paypal,
and about 290€ all in all,
shipping to germany is about 40-50€*
and customs about 45€.
so all in all i have about 210€~275-279$ for the nook with tax and shipping in the us.
Hi,
I'm from Belgien and I bought mine on ebay here: http://cgi.benl.ebay.be/Barnes-and-...ultDomain_0&hash=item45f7d0122e#ht_2464wt_905 It was about 249€ with shipping included but it seems she has upped the price bij around 10€ allready.
It hasn't arrived yet, according to usps it is still in Belgian customs so I don't know how much more customs will be.
Maybe this is an option for you?
ive got a cover at borderlinx, so i will ship the nook with it if i get it in the us. im going to try to order one at ebay, i hope i mustnt pay tax. but i should get that negotiated with the seller. because im from germany;
i just asked a seller if i have to pay taxes and i also saw a nook color that is getting sold via ebay in germany, but its already at 223€ with 10 bids and it will end on thursday, , going to get to expensive i think.
Edit:
just to be sure there are no other stores besides
b&n
bestbuy
wallmart
amazon
ebay
where i can get the nook color?
Edit2:
ordered the nook at booksamillion

I just received an email from Best Buy that the Nook Color I ordered is now available for pickup. I had ordered it last week when they were offering a free case with the purchase of the device. I believe the deal is still valid for this week (2/6-2/12), so I'd suggest taking advantage. I picked the easel-style one that is B&N branded. Really nice, considering it retails for $49.99.
Not sure why so many people have trouble locating these. They are available at my local best buys and well... if you walk into Barnes and Nobles... they have plenty. Is there a reason people aren't going to Barnes and Nobles brick and mortar?
You must have missed the article going around reporting that Nook Color's were being pulled off the shelves for 2 weeks...
I heard they are doing it just for inventory. Best buy close to my house also pulled the inventory but I went to Barnes & Noble and they had plenty.
$25 Gift Card with $250 Purchase
They also have a coupon to get a $25 gift card with purchase of $250 good until the 12th. Coupon is attached and links below. I just used it tonight. You have to choose between the $25 gift card or the free case you can't get both.
Here's the link to the coupon dealspl.us/bestbuy-coupons/208649p
Here's the link to all their coupons dealspl.us/bestbuy-coupons
Hhmmm, online it's listed as backordered... Any news about that???

the other thread wasn't much use to me since it doesn't list any official channels (there really isn't any). I got myself one in february though. Ordered one from Amazon US, the UK one doesn't carry it.
there are a few resellers on amazon US, i tried one that shipped internationally but when time came to pay (with a British credit card), i faced the message due to licensing restrictions the product can't be shipped internationally.
for some reason, i decided to try my luck again with another reseller, Blueproton on amazon US. this time it worked. their dispatch was ultra quick, though fedex did screw up a bit. long story short, you can try to buy from blueproton on amazon US. Cost in total was about £232 if i remember right, including 25 for shipping (i used expedited though).
I just wanted to get an idea of how the majority of people aquired their nook color. Online, in a B&N store, Best buy, craigslist? I'm shopping around and looking for the best place to get one under MSRP, or at least tax-free. Any suggestions, or websites I should keep an eye out on for possible sales?
I got mine from craigslist for $225.00 total. it was brand new (still in plastic). the best part about CL is no sale tax, saving me $30.00. I met the guy at the mall give him 1/2 of the money and told him if the nook boots up fine I'll give him rest of the money. so far I'm vary happy with my NC running CM7
best buy simply so i could also get a micro sd with an adapter at the same store.
I bought mine on ebay new, but no box. 207 shipped.
Ebay here as well. B&N provided a coupon for $50 off. It was $208. Pretty sure it's the first time I've paid a tax for an internet purchase.
Ebay With the Bn coupon $206 with tax
ebay, new, from b&n $200
Ebay during B&N's sale.
Ebay as they don't sell them in Australia. I just missed out on the coupon so paid too much.
i got mine from b&n cuz they have a store about 100 feet from my apartment...

Had to get mine from the farther-away Walmart, as B&N, BB, and the closer Walmart were all out of stock. Tempted to get it online, but wanted to try local first.
got mine at a brick and mortar B&N store, it was an impulse buy
Bought mine at the nearest B&N store. Nice folks, but "The Nook Guy" wasn't there.
Store. There's a big stink on b&n forums towards people who got it on hsn. Kinda funny.
Best buy while my visit to USofA.
With CM7 NC makes the best price-performance for me.. and it's not sold in Europe.. they'd outsell ipad in Europe if B&N saw the oppurtunity
Best Buy, mostly on a whim, knowing that there was cme community behind it. Of course, things have really changed now, haven't they.....
Craigslist for $150. Couldn't resist such a low price. It was practically brand new.
I bought it because I knew there is an active XDA community supporting it. Even at $250 the nook is a pretty nice bargain given the hardware.

I got mine at Best Buy with some other stuff so I could get it with no interest for 18 months deal.
I bought mine at a B&N store. It was a week before the Groupon coupon deal but at least I got a 5% rebate by using a B&N Mastercard.
I'm looking to buy a Nook Color as a cheap CM tablet to experiment with app development/pdf reader for school, but getting a hold of one in Europe seems pretty difficult.
My only option so far seems to buy one on ebay and pay ~50% in import "penalties" etc.
At $300 it isn't in my price range any more, so do any of you have any good advice on the subject?
I'm in Denmark.

I don't know if it available in europe yet but I would look at the Fire.
I have the same problem, living in Italy. Import duties on the last shipment were more than the cost of the items shipped from the US and shipping was almost as much. Fortunately I had to fly back for a wedding and brought a nook color back, with a lot of other things that can't be purchased here. Might as well get as much as I can for the price of the ticket.
For more urgent things I use Amazon.UK or Amazon.DE. Good exchange rate with the pound right now and buying from Germany is much cheaper than Italy anyday.
I ended up buying it on ebay.de for 249€ with free shipping (within the EU, so no taxes). Now I just need to unload my PS3 to pay for it
I bought one from US Eby and asked the seller to write down the value. Still had to pay import duties, but much less. Still a great price!
Be aware:
If you plan on keeping the B&N Nook funcitonality, it won't work so well in Europe since purchases need to be made in the US borders and with a US account.
If you plan on just flashing CM7 to the emmc, you'll be fine.

Lets just say I modded my ps2 before i even tried to turn it on
Heck, I was gonna suggest that I'd buy it and ship it to you as long as you could procure an N9 and ship it to me.
It's a shame when it's so difficult to get our hands on gadgets we like.
Does anyone know how soon Amazon.com normally sells newly released smartphones? I am planning on buying from bestbuy at full retail price after they price match my local sprint store's $549 price. It would be even better if I could buy from Amazon.com and avoid tax as well.
(first time buying without the subsidized pricing so I'm looking for the cheapest way possible)
Thanks

If I'm not mistaken Amazon charges tax on more states now included California. I was building a PC for about $1500 and was using Amazon to avoid Newegg tax but a week before ordering or so they enforced CA Sales tax. Overall it was still cheaper so I ended up still ordering with Amazon but it's worth checking if your state is the same.
Amazon has a list of states where they charge sales tax: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/custo...2?ie=UTF8&nodeId=468512&qid=1366142889&sr=1-2
All CA mobile sales will also be charged tax on the full (no-contract) price of the phone as well, even when you buy the subsidized version and sign the 2-year contract.
I am shipping to Ohio. Amazon doesn't charge tax there yet
