That is crazy! I just bought mine used last week or $200. What a great deal. Of course, I probably would have ended up missing this deal anyway, but still.

Im tempted to jump on this....how is the battery life? Is it really less than a day?

If I don't use live wallpaper, I can unplug the watch at 7am and by the time I head to bed at 11pm I still have 50% charge left with normal use. (I'm using Null ROM).

Woot, just bought the orange one...... heard the white gets dirty quick with no known way to clean.

I took the shot. For $150, I think it's worth it. Orange is what I went with. Hope it's not gross. They were out of the white locally (within 100 miles) after lunch, but had at least one before lunch.
Now... Guess I'll read up on it eh. LOL! :good:

Just for online shipping ?

No, I think you can buy them in store for $149 also, if they have them in stock.

Went to a local Best Buy today and they were completely sold out by Noon (PST). Time to check eBay!

Lol, I traded in my black. Got an oatmeal beige. Open box (unsold before, still all protectors on ) for $130. Tempted to ebay or craigslist it, I got it for so cheap. Only downside, battery was at 0.
Getting 125 bucks back is a win.

I picked up the Grey (Mocha) one at BB tonight. They said it wasn't on sale, only certain colors were, but they gave it to me for $150 anyways.
Love it so far, flashing Null right now.

Shame uk can't get at this price

In France, 199€-105€ of cashback= 94€

Picked up a Rose Gold yesterday but now I don't even know what to do with it. A friend of mine had a New England themed sports wallpaper on it, or maybe it was a watch (can't remember) , but I can't find anything in the play store.

Returned my pebble for a lime-yellow gg. It was an open item so they sold it to me for $100. Best buy ended up crediting my account for the difference. Payed to upgrade.

Already have a black gear but bought 2 rose gold. Awesome deal indeed.

Bought the rose gold. All my friends asked why I didn't get the pebble. Im a chic the pebble doesn't come in anything remotely fashionable.

This deal still going?

Ebay selling for $199

Good or bad? Probably means the GG 2 is coming soon. Could get some more devs to jump in here also.
That's a good deal yo.

I think because Samsung dropped the price in India to $250. Even best buy has it at $250 now. I'm waiting for it to hit $200 from a regular store before I jump in.
I bought 2 at that price in December from eBay. I don't regret it at all.
I know myself, if I didn't have one already, i would definitely bite on that one. I mean, that kinda kills my resale value although i only paid $240. My other thought is that every time I see a decent size price drop on Galaxy products, it's because the next version is coming out soon.
I went to Craigslist and got mine for 190. But I also made sure it connected and asked the guy if he rooted it and flashed it. He told me it was stock and he had to Google root and flash so I knew it was a good buy!!! And I was gonna wait for the next generation also but these thoughts came to mind. 1 how much will the Gear 2 cost if the Gear was 300 (Sales werent great but good enough to make a gear2) 2. I don't wear watches so trying one out wouldn't hurt (forget I'm wearing it sometimes) 3. After seeing people flash it updates already the Gear will be just as good as the Gear 2 except for hardware. Unless they add a sim chip like the omate then I'd swoop it oh and front facing camera so I can video chat. Sorry for the long post.

I bought two for $320 off Kijiji, and then sold one for $180, making my Gear only $140. Decent deal.
You can probably get it off Kijiji or CL for $180.

Buying a galaxy gear

Best buy has the Galaxy Gear for 229 right now and im contemplating buying one..would it be better to wait until the Galaxy Gear 2? is it worth the upgrade...thanks guys
Well those used for around a month on eBay go for £100~ so if your wanting to try but not sure go for a used one
In my opinion best to wait for gear 2 the price of the first will drop even further. And both are similar but 2 being thinner and little sleeker

Gear 2 will be pretty useless at the beginning, due to completly new OS and once again, lack of apps. I would just go for Gear 1 at the moment, put Null there, and wait few months how's situation with the Tizen.
i don't expect anything nice though.

That is true completely forgot about the new os. Even if you are buying the 1st one I'd still wait for the price drop. Really just depends how long your willing to keep it for.
I just sold my watch after a month, have loads of other watches, dont get me wromg having the gear felt good for the first week but got bored of it after

I was going to go get it today or tomorrow since it was 229..243 after tax or so...but if you think i should wait until the new one comes out in a month for a price drop i just may.

I just picked mine up for $199.99/211.44 after tax from AT&T. You have to order online to get that price, but they honor it with in store pick up.

I warn you in advance if you try to use the split it onto two cards in store option, using the online system, most of the employees don't know how to do it and it takes a long time for them to actually process that.

I ordered online and chose Store Pick Up in the cart. No offense, but if AT&Ts store employees can't process a standard system transaction - not like I did something funny, they offered the option - that's bad training. It did take me a few extra minutes in the store because, they are still charging the $299.99, but everything turned out smooth. Just bring the card you used online and an ID.

How can you even make this claim? It stands to reason that the lack of apps designed for the Gear is because of the planned switch to Tizen. Are you suggesting that the app selection for the Galaxy Gear is plentiful? I understand you can side-load phone apps, but that is an unacceptable solution for the lack of dedicated apps in the Samsung store.
I think I'm just goona get it from att tomorrow for 199. If the new one is goona be 399 I can just get this one If it's goona be supported and get the updates. I don't see why I should buy the new gear 2 and have to wait when I can get this for 199 and it's still supported

Shop Amazon / Purchase BBY
I've been monitoring Gear prices pretty closely for my hobby site.
Agree w/ H3Dude - the best strategy is to set up a price alert on Amazon, then buy at Best Buy.
The trick is timing: on Amazon, I've seen the 'New' price on the Gear swing from current "list" of $299, down to $186, and back up to list - in the same day.
Also, if you're willing to buy the Orange one, you'll get a much better deal.
Good luck!
In france, we can get it for 60€. (after a 100€ refound from samsung.)

Galaxy Gear 99.97$ in Canada BNIB

Just a head up guys
http://www.bell.ca/Mobility/Products/Galaxy-Gear-Black
(there is other colors too)
I think its canada only, but not sure !
$13 bucks shipping is a little hight but still a killer price. Wish I was in Canada, so I could order one!
That's probably tax
I don't see where they ship to US. Only gives Canadian Provinces I wanted a rose gold for my gf. See their white only comes in silver.
Just ordered 2 Ivory and 2 Orange. Now I'm researching how to make them work with out Samsung device. I figure with the new S5 coming shortly these will be a good addition.
what if I tell you that I got mine for... 9€ ? :victory:
(brand new, sealed box, of course).
109€ paid online, 100€ paid back by Samsung in few weeks

I couldn't resist at this price. But what I did instead of buying one through the Bell web site was to price match it at my local Best Buy. With their price match plus 10% policy, I got it for $89.97 plus taxes. Thank you, OP!

I wonder if bb will price match in the us
so just wanted to ask, is it worth it getting the gear for $100?
and...... Out of Stock
Orange ones are still in stock. I just ordered 2.
Can't wait to dig into one of these!
EDIT
I must have just squeaked my purchase in because not 2 hours after I ordered 2 of these they are also now sold out.

I just got off the phone with bell Customer Service and was told that they had so many orders that the system went into Back Order mode!
They can'f fulfill all the orders they took and are now contacting Samsung to see if they can get more to satisfy the existing orders.
I expect Bell will be cancelling many orders very soon.
I got it
I am in Nebraska and I got one of my local Best Buy to price match. I think the said ok because I got the orange one ( Broncos fan). I also knew the sales rep because he helped me in the past with a lot of stuff.
Now on sale at Future Shop for 100.
I picked one up today. I'll cancel the Bell order tomorrow.

Refurb Gear 1. All colors $99

It is a Best Buy deal of the day. I just ordered the Black. Given the $29 cost you would have to pay for an extra cradle, you are getting the watch for $70 net.
Best deal I've seen so far and now I have the black and the mocha.

Can this Nexus 6 still be found for the $299 deal brand new ?

Looks like I took to long to pick up a 32GB Could White Nexus 6 for the reduced $299 price.
Is that deal still around anywhere ? I can't seem to find a "brand new" Cloud White for $299 anywhere in the U.S.
Its not white but it's a great deal

it will pop up again like he said mate, at first i was going to fetch it off eBay for 299$ it was a white one, but i wanted the midnight blue, and i didnt want to wait until they have the Midnight version back in stock again and i had thoughts that they could sell me a refurbished one,
so i just went on ahead and bought my midnight blue off amazon for 349$, and my bad luck i am now dealing with a defected screen , its not that bad , but it is annoying.
good luck with your purchase , you wont regret buying this beast.
( looking at your history of phones LOL i assume you already own one? and you know it is a beast of a phone, sorry it could be that your buying it for someone else, anyway good luck! )
If you don't want to wait Amazon has 32GB for $349 and 64GB for $399. That's where I got mine.
If 64GB interests you, they have the warehouse deal for $339 again, which is how I got mine. The one I received was an open box, but the device was mint condition. Sprint had some trouble activating it so Amazon swapped it for a new one at the same price, no hassles.

These are brand-new (at least mine was), in an unopened box.
Edit: Expansys is an outfit in Bloomington, IN. I didn't really have any issues with them, but I had ordered the Nexus 6 along with a turbo car charger and a Poetic case which were not immediately available. So they hung on to the Nexus 6 (which was available) for a whole week in order to be able to complete-ship the order. For part-shipments they are asking for $5. I got on the phone with them and read them the riot act about delaying the Nexus 6 shipment for $5. So they waived the $5 and shipped the Nexus 6 and I received the case and the car charger two weeks later. It's all good. Love the N6.
