Amazon is selling the steel for 179 now
I got my Steel from Amazon.com to the UK, £130 inc. all taxes as bought when amazon had it for $169.99 the otherday, so was about $210 after shipping and tax.
aye, pity is now that they are sensible, I've rekindled my G-Shock collection passion :highfive:

Thanks!! How do we get the 50% from samsung? I can't seem to find it in their site.
i just called my local (I'm in the Los Angeles area) corporate T-Mobile store to verify the buy 2 get 1 free sale is on. they sales guy said the promo applies to all accessories, including bluetooth headsets and the Moga game controller.

All you have to do is, register your brand new spanking Note 2 or any Samsung device they send you coupon through email.
I did mine through
https://www.facebook.com/SamsungMobileUSA/app_314499095294546?app_data=registerDevice
You can use mine, I think it's still good till 11/23/2012. If it doesn't work just register.
Coupon: rE155590c
P. S. There is tax on purchase but still cheaper than retail store.

What was Google thinking? Why is the Nexus 7 16GB here in India for USD $365??
The same unit is USD $225 in the USA.
I was very disappointed with Google.

It's not Google. Its Asus that is selling the device in India. And for some reason they think they can charge whatever they want in India and get away with it. Shame. They could have made this the best selling Tablet here and did well for them selves.
Could it be because of tariffs? How much is the ipad in India?

$170 in Taxes and duty?????
If that was the case then no one would be doing business in India
iPAD2 WiFi 16 GB BLK - Rs 24,500 (India price) Thats $462
In the US iPAD2 WiFi 16 GB BLK is $399 Rs.21,147
3,500 in mark up (including dutys and taxes is OK
It has nothing to do with taxes. even if that was the case they would still benefit from bulk import prices and get a better deal on duty.
This is just them taking advantage of the situation.

I understand our condition.
I am also very much disappointed.
Its too much.do not why asus wants to disrupt its sales in India.
I was going to buy 8gb model.
But its too overpriced.
Best option is too import from other countries.
And please do not make these kind of threads already there are hell lot of them.
It's the same here in Istanbul, and it's because of taxes more than anything. We get raped in prices for just about everything - a 750ml bottle of Jack Daniels will run you around $60 here. Also, I've seen the Nexus 7 (8Gb) sell for around $400.
Don't even get me started on the Apple stuff. Because there is no official Apple Store here, they sell for three times the price. Thankfully I don't use those horrid devices, but people who do are screwed.
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

Best deal I have seen in the US for the Gear. I got mine for $99 in Canada, but I also have to pay GSTs and shipping to the US.
@nviz22, keep in mind the one you got is brand new, while this one is refurbished. Though since its BB Geek Squad, these refurb'd units are most likely just customer returns.

All should know too that many times "refurbished" only means it was returned to the store without anything wrong with it. They cannot then sell it as "new", so they have to call the item refurbished. In the case of the Gear, where we heard it had a high return rate late last year, I would take advantage of an offer like this if you see it come up again.

Yeah, that's fine, but I am just saying that's been the best deal for the Gear in the US so far from what I have seen. It's a good value purchase at $130 anyways. For $300, the original price, not worth it. I chose the Gear 1 for the functionality and price. The Gear 2 only has a heart rate sensor and IR Blaster, which cannot vouch for a $200 price difference.
Pricing update FYI
Just thought I would post for those that are interested.
Amazon has the original Gear for 120.33 they are listed as used but they are being shown as Amazon Warehouse inventory which very often are customer returns. Free two day shipping if you are a prime member as well. Also eligible for standard return and refund policies from Amazon. Also this is for Jet Black.

Just picked one up today from Best Buy's eBay site. $89 - $20 eBay loyalty coupon that splashed on the screen.
Could not pass up for $69.
Probably will sell it the instant the Moto watch comes out, but for now, it's a cheap toy!
