Best to use Parcelbound like I did. For them to buy will be 10 percent of total cost price. Then you have to pay them to choose which carrier you want it to ship with and lastly when it arrives to your home you'll pay once again for the customs charges and duty rates. All in all it may run you into a few more dollars that you we're expecting. But it's much safer than having some one you do not know buy it.
That is of course if you have a friend in the U.S who willingly do this for you.

Like I said I they will buy it for you no problems. I used it to get my Moto X and I live all the way in The Bahamas. Due note because of their location their state is 7% sales tax added onto the phones price tag, whichever that may be now.
So it's phones price + 7% of total cost + 10% buy for me service fee. They when it arrives you choose who wants to ship, ranging from around 40$. to ship it to your country, then the last fees which depends on your country import tax duty and what have you.
Their customer service is one of the best I've seen from out of the majority of the companies in who do this.
You will not be disappointed I assure you.

Hi, I would be really interested to know how much you paid. I'm looking to buy a 32gb version and as they probably don't plan to release it in Europe, I'll have to buy it from the moto maker. I'm more interested in the 32gb than the LTE network as they just launched it in France and I'm not a datauser freak (happy with my 500 mb of data connection I never use). Thank you!

Had anyone ordered a Note with one of the major UK companies? I'm waiting to see if Orange will be getting it, no one seems to have heard of it in Customer Services. And there's no info with O2 , Vodafone or T-Mobile.
Any info greatly appreciated,

Clove will have stock Thursday 11/3. Unlocked mobile will send its second shipment early next week. First shipment sold out and sent 10/28.
Have a look here - http://www.onecompare.com/phone/samsung/galaxynote/monthly-contract
Higher up front cost and lower monthly here - http://www.onecompare.com/phone?hs=...=30&contract=&gift=&extra=1&cashback=&sortby=
The Note has only been announced as being available on O2 in the UK so far based on Samsung's London event last week, the launch date was originally due to be tomorrow but has been moved to 03/11, however this device is not showing on the o2 coming soon page. It is however showing on internal stock checking system with no release date..
Phones4U only have Orange on their website, however it has a deliver date of 23 Nov...
I'd love to hear about contract versions of this phone and when all of the information will be released. It seems strange that with the phone's imminent release that none of the stores appear to have any information and all of the company websites don't appear to be showing any dates.
For such a powerful/expensive/flagship handset the PR and marketing for the masses is terrible in the UK. No store is advertising it at all :/
yeah i've been to high st shops today in London. carphonewarehouse , phone4u , o2 , vodafone but non of them know what galaxy note is ,,, lol oh well,
ps. on carphonewarehouse website the galaxy note is on comingsoon page.
I've met samsung representative on 25 Oct (Friday) in Carephone warehouse with galaxy note in his hands.
When I asked him about availability he told me that it's going to be in on Monday 28th Oct, which didn't seem right. Been there again today and they still are waiting for the stock.
Hopefully it'll be in on Thursday so I'll finally judge whether to pull the trigger and take it.
I'm waiting to see if the GNote will be made available on the 3 network, to make the most of the "all you can eat" data plans.
I'll wait until I see it in the flesh too - having read some of the posts on here, I would imagine Shaq would struggle to hold it!

It's a shame that the only options for "real" unlimited data plan is either 3 network or giffgaff (you'll need o2 locked or unlocked phone for this one tho) :/.
It's so easy to exceed more than 1 GB bandwidth, especially with downloading apps, wallpapers or watch some videos on youtube.
on buymobilephones.net can preorder contract Expected on 19/11/2011 , on vodafone, Tmobile ,orange and o2 network.

Thankyou for all the info guys. Really hoping it turns up on Orange so as I could upgrade soon, I've delayed that option for a couple of months in hope of a larger screen device.
Once again, thanks

Shame is so expensive! You can usually pick up high end phones for free on £25 a month I'll have to pay £100 upfront and £31 p/m to get this!

This is at the top end of high end phones and is brand new with limited stock at the moment. SIM free in the UK it is at least £540 unless you look to import it from abroad. Whichever way you cut it to have this phone and airtime is going to cost.
£100 + £31 x 24 = £844.
You must be getting a lot of minutes/texts/data for that price. There are contract deals for a hair over £700 over two years, but that's £210 up front and then ~£20 per month. If I wanted a contract that's the way I'd go, but instead I've bought SIM free from amazon.de (£486 for the phone) and will be using giffgaff to run the phone. Worst case for me is that I pay £10 per month to giffgaff for a goody bag, but in practice I don't need much mobile data and can get by with even less cost by paying as I go. It's also worth considering buying SIM free and then looking at 12 month SIM only contracts, which can net out to around £8 per month with cash back. Check out http://www.hotukdeals.com/mobiles/deals/hot to seek out some good offers. Example - http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/t-mobile-300-minutes-300-texts-choose-your-booster-1050776
My last branded phone (Orange San Francisco) was so riddled with network operator crud that it had to be rooted and modded to remove the toot. Orange have never released a ROM upgrade for it in over 12 months so I'd still be stuck on 2.1 Eclair if I'd played by their rules. Now I'm running CM7 on it and all is good. It would need to be a persuasive contract deal to make me want to put up with that crap ever again.
For anyone wanting to go the contract route you can use cash back websites to take a little of the sting out of the deal. I use TopCashBack and Quidco. Probable savings are a minimum of £30 and possibly over £100, although the cash back is not guaranteed.
Just to elaborate on the last post...
Amazon.de is cheap... £470 for the note...
Since my T-Mobile contract is up...my £15mnth contract can go down to £9 automatically...if I haggle..then much less.
£9 x 24 (New Galaxy Contracts are 24mnths) = £216
+
£470 for the phone
= £686
Most retailers in the UK are selling the Note for £570-650 so £686 with a contract is a bargain. So it is better to buy the phone sim free and find a cheap contract.
The Note contracts are £35 minimum for 24 months plus they make you pay for the phone. 35 x 24 = £840 !! plus £30-£120 for the phone = EXPENSIVE..
Thing is will there be a difference between the German (EU) version and the UK version in terms of the look/feel of the software and the updates?

^ Seems like a decent contract to me (suits my needs...) 24 * 25.54 = £612.96 + £129.99 for phone = £742.95 .. £56.95 for expensive but it saves me £470 upfront costs... but I will ring the T-Mobile upgrade number to haggle...I don't want to pay for the phone...

What about this one - 18 * 25.54 = £459.72, plus £179.99 for the phone = £639.71
That's pretty good... only downside is its 300 / 300 ... I can live with that... but in case you do ever need to use more the charges will rack up.
Right now for £9.32 a month I get 600mins, 500 texts, Unlimited Internet (1GB) , Unlimited Landline Booster... Usual cost of this contract excluding landline booster is £25+ ... and they only give you 500mb instead of the 1gb I currently enjoy.
so it works out better for me to buy the note sim free from Germany.
May be when O2 / carphone warehouse etc reveal there tariffs we will have a better idea of what to do.
just wanted to make a rant/rave thing.
just purchased the galaxy nexus off the google play store (lol play store) for about $392USD.
:crying::crying: tax sucked! $32 dollars for NYC
first time i spent this much for a phone, it was almost unjustifiable.... if i wasnt selling my old beloved nexus one for 150-ish. so i guess technically i am spending only about $240 out of my pocket, which isnt so bad if you look at it that way.
..... right? what do you guys think?
Stop f***ing moaning. That's what I think.
You can obviously afford the money or you wouldn't have bought it. We can't order the Nexus phone from Google here in the UK, so we end up paying way more to get it from another source if we want it.
If you weren't happy with the cost then you should have stuck with your old phone

Look on the bright side: your tax dollars go to the state which "might" come back to you someday.
The price you paid for what you got is dirt cheap. I can't believe how little Google is charging for them, off contract. I bought one for my wife when they were still $399 and I have no regrets, that was a steal too.

I paid almost $700 for mine from handtec when they first came out and I bought 2. I could have purchased 5 total with the prices now. With the next nexus I might not be so quick to get, I think I'll be able to wait a few months for prices to come down....hopefully.
Google should really sell the next nexus for $400 straight from play store. They would kill the market for sure.

What do I think? It's the best bang for your buck. And honestly, if you're using it while on contract, you're wasting your money. Contracts are a thing of the past. Take it to T-Mobile's $30 5GB, unlimited text, 100 minute plan or to Straight Talk's $50 unlimited everything (runs on AT&T or T-Mobile, whichever you choose). Don't forget you have a pentaband phone, which is rare even nowadays.
I paid $575 out of pocket (after trade-in credits from Amazon) for my Galaxy S III i9300, so don't complain.

If you're happy with the price, than that's all that matters. I still don't know what the purpose of this thread is since I'm sure nobody is going to feel as good about your "deal" as you do, but enjoy your N7.

No offense but $260 for a used N7 without the $25 credit is not a great deal to me. JMO.

You get the $25 credit. As long as you restore it to factory, the first time you log in with your account, you get it.

Also, not the brag, but (and don't forget the 5% cashback) ...

Whatever. ..If you feel saving $17 cash is worth losing a $25 credit, manufacturers warranty, and getting "used" instead of "new" is worth it, then enjoy.

Are you sure Google hasn't closed that loophole by now?

i'm not happy the fact that i save money i'm happy the fact that i actually acquire one while everywhere else is sold out. if i pre-order from my local gamestop it wouldnt arrive till august 4th and god know when google will actually send my stuff, they promise this week than put it off for another week. so yea the point is i'm felt lucky to be one of the few that own one, not because i save any money.
It's a complete rip, but Daily Steals apparently has stock of Nexus 4's for $499:
http://mobile.dailysteals.com/
MODS: Please collapse this along with the "Nexus 4... Round 2" thread. I apologize for the inconvenience.
List price $799? Really? Assholes...
Lol yep, it's a steal all right. Just for them, not us
Got my galaxy nexus through them. Was the UK model and at a decent price but they are very shady and it took a month from order to get to my door and the shipping part of it was only two days of that. Oh wait a minute, kind of like ordering this phone off the play store...
You can buy it for the same price in a TMobile store tomorrow.

Of course they did. That is what the exclusivity agreements and the throttling of supply is all about.

Aha! They're the jerks that bought a hundred on launch day, making it sell out so that they can profit off us.
My life for Aiur
Its still cheaper then on our local mediamarkt (will be available in 3 weeks there)
And just about 10% more expensive then in our google playstore.
I really wish i could get is also for 349USD.
Take a look at this, they did the same thing with the Galaxy Nexus for 530 USD!

Yeah but sadly we can't, at least not right now.
I ordered mine on eBay from a guy from Germany who managed to buy 2 when they went on sale.
Paid €440 for an 8GB version *sigh* but I'm really fed up with my SIII so it's worth it!
Daily Steals is a legitimate company. I am not saying that they should be charging $500 for this, but I am saying if you order from them you will get it. Be warned however, that it will take 2-4 weeks before you get what you ordered. They are the slowest shipping company I have ever bought from. So, with that being said, by the time you get your Nexus 4 from Daily Steals, it will more than likely be back in stock at the Play Store for $350 +tax and shipping and you will be kicking yourself.
How the HELL did they get stock??? That's pretty shady. The price, as compared to eBay, really isn't that much. Yes, I am aware of the MSRP, but after tax you are paying a ~$100 premium. Worth it for everyone? No. Some? Yep.

I just learned this myself. I bought a headset from them on November 2nd. Still waiting for it.
I'll just leave this here: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Daily_Steals
Just because they are "legitimate" doesn't mean some people never ever received what they purchased.

This guy is epic. :highfive:
Don't expect a warranty if you by from dailysteals. I got my Galaxy Nexus from dailysteals before the play store started selling it directly. They advertised a one year warranty. Took forever to ship. When I cracked the screen Samsung refused to help me because it was the international version. Had it been the playstore version they would have replaced the screen for $200.

So when they say daily steal, they mean from you right?
They most likely don't have stock and will order the amount sold and then ship to you. They probably have a connect somewhere in the supply chain.
I would ask if they actually have stock.

New Nexus 5 owner here. I was a Nexus 4 owner until yesterday. I sold the N4 (8GB) to my co-worker for $200.
Well... I went yesterday to my local Best Buy (Laredo, TX) and went to the Mobile section and this (pretty) lady was at the desk. I told her that I wanted to get a Nexus 5 without a contract, cash. She took the keys and opened a drawer behind her and took the N5. I asked her for the price and she told me it was $450. So, I opened the browser on my phone and searched the N5 on the Google Play Store and told her that Google was selling the phone for $350 and if it would be possible for them to price match the phone. She told me that it was possible. She took my N4 and verified the information. She called the manager (a rocker-tattooed kinda guy) and he authorized the price match. They have to put the store to be matched as Other.
Success!
My recommendations. Be polite. Just act casual and don't be nervous.
Share your stories!
best buy is the only retailer i know that matches the online price of any product. i didnt know the nexus 5 was sold in stores.

Yes, they do match prices of other online stores, but the list of the stores they match is limited. The Google Play Store is not included, so, this is why the price match of the Nexus 5 is YMMV.
From Best Buy:
"Amazon.com, Apple.com, Bhphotovideo.com, Crutchfield.com, Dell.com, Frys.com, hhgregg.com, HP.com, HomeDepot.com, Lowes.com, Newegg.com, OfficeDepot.com, OfficeMax.com, Rakuten.com Shopping, Sears.com, Staples.com, Target.com, TigerDirect.com and Walmart.com. We will match prices between our stores and BestBuy.com®. We will also match prices post purchase if we lower our price within 15 days of your purchase."

Try to flirt or something with the BB employee. I think I did that inadvertently.
Worked for me in Madison Heights, MI Best Buy. Picked up a 16GB Black and sold my 32GB black I had purchased from the PlayStore. I did not need the extra space as I still have 10gb free on my 16gb.
Comes with a Sprint SIM in the phone but no SIM tool, so just used a pin, popped it open and put my AT&T SIM in and have been using it since.
$370.99 out the door after MI 6% tax.

Nice.
When did you get it? I got it yesterday at 7:00 p.m. approximately.
If you can price match the phone at Best Buy, it is a way better deal than getting it from the Play Store. You don't have to pay shipping and you don't have to wait!
Back on November 20th, I believe (receipt is at home) . I had to stay late for an evening meeting and stopped by BB after reading some posts about people PM to BB on another forum. Took all of 3 minutes or so. Manager came over to authorize the $100 price match to online price with no questions.

Its always a gamble......HaHa, see what I did there?
I got Best Buy to price match the day it came out. They didn't really give me any issues. Yes, there is a list of sites they price match, but if it is a reputable site, they don't really care. I also had a $100 BB gift card for switching my electric company, and I sold my N4 for $200. My out of pocket cost was like $70 after taxes..

Now that's a good deal. Hopefully N5 retains a good resale value in a year or 2 as well.

Not that awesome,lol. But I did go with sprint and just recently cancelled. They waived my etf by returning the phone, which was a cracked screen disaster. So it was sorta like contract free...:victory:

I'd go in person and say the same thing. When the sales associate won't listen, ask to talk to the manager. Say the same thing to him. When he won't listen, bring up the Play Store, and go to technical specs. At the same time, go to Best Buy's site or Sprint's site and go to technical specs (whichever will show the ACTUAL specs; BB's site doesn't seem to go into too much detail). Then just Google "Nexus 5 versions" or "Can unlocked Nexus 5 be used on Sprint?" and show the results. Basically show them that everyone knows that the devices are identical except them.
Of course, showing them that is no guarantee that they'll honor the price match. As this whole thread states, YMMV when it comes to them price matching.
