Daily Steals: Nexus 4 for $499

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.

I didn't use Jump but I did order the phone online.... I called customer service before hand to ask such question and was told that after I receive the phone I use a number off the box or receipt to claim gift.... At that time I can choose what I want...
But during the process of ordering there was no option for it....:good:

Okay, thanks. Seems if you order it as a first time customer, you can pick what you want during the order process - or so it seems.

I can't answer that.... I clicked the upgrade part so that's all I know.... Like I said I called Customer service before hand and it seems as though if you do it by phone you can say what gift you want but... they now implement a $20.00 "assistance fee" for doing it by phone....
I politely told the lady I don't want to pay the $20.00 and proceeded to do the transaction online... She was very helpful though and answered everything I asked so I do appreciate that...

You have to go to the Samsung promotions site when you have phone and receipt in hand to place your order.
SD card and Fit 2 will take up to 12 weeks for delivery.
Netflix is a digital code.
https://promos.samsungpromotions.com/galaxyoffer/
You need IMEI, MAC address and receipt from the device.
---------- Post added at 09:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------
Oh yeah, and the promotion for the Fit 2 and SD card is limited to the first 250K then they substitute. . .
So when you get it, hop to it.

I also used JUMP via Web to place my preorder. There was no option for me to choose either, Hopefully there still Gear fit 2 available for me to redeem my gift.

I guess this must be the first time you guys have gotten any perks like this. ITs been this way for quite some time that you basically upload a copy of your invoice and use your IMEI number to process your order for samsung promotions. Also dont get too crazy thinking it may come right away generally it takes 4-6 weeks to receive promotional gifts
So far I have gotten netflix, wireless chargers, gift cards and gear vr. They will send it so dont get too nervous if you feel like you been waiting a while.

I just ordered the phone on jump on demand and the guy told me i wasnt gonna be eligible to receive the sd card or gear or netflix promotion with it. It was only available if i got it as a eip or bought full price. Sucks but still got it anyways.lol

With jump on demand you can only do it over the phone or in store upgrade. No online upgrade. For pre order just call tmobile and when it asks you to say what you are calling for just say representative. Tell them you want a jump on demand upgrade and to preorder a phone. And whenever you get the new phone just go to a tmobile store and return the old one. Really quick. Make sure you keeo the charger, they wont ask for it.
If the phone is already out then just go to any store and they will trade it for you. Also pretty fast. The cool thing is that you dont have to put any money down for any phone with jump on demand.

The only reason I didn't order it was because they had a 70 down plus tax on jump on demand. I kept asking if that was right because it didn't sound right. Guess they did have a money down thing for jod on the note 7 but got rid of it because people were complaining. Sucks because I would've ordered it last week. But it's cool I guess. I'll just order it today

I went ahead and paid the $70, then got a text two days later from T-Mobile stating that I could do it for no money down, all I had to do was call back in and they would change it for me and my monthly amount would go from $33.50 to $37.50. I went ahead and just left it alone as I didn't want to risk losing my place in the shipping line.

Tmobile forcing me to pay off my Note 7

Did anyone else get this? I was financing my Note 7 through Tmobile and I got my phone bill with the full charge of my phone.
I understand why they are doing it. Just sucks. I can't afford to pay off all $900 at once. I guess they are finally forcing me to return it.

It's a recalled device. Tmobile still owns it until it's paid off. They can't own this anymore.
The phone is dead. No support. No insurance.

I'm under my sister's account who works for tmobile. So our regular phone bill was +$900(the cost of the phone). When she looked into to it, she was told that i need to pay off the phone.

More than likely it is because she is an employee, as an employee she is held to a different standard when it comes to protecting the brand. Turn the device in so your sister doesn't get in trouble for not following proper procedures.

It is likely they force people to pay off phones so ownership of phone would be transfered from Tmobile to customer and Tmobile wouldn't be responsible for any future lawsuits.

That's true... It's possible. Yes i will be doing that this week sadly.

Is it that the credit for the first N7 you turned in hasn't applied yet to your account? I had an $871 bill on tmobile till yesterday because the credit for the first N7 I turned in didn't apply. I went to the store, they made a phone call and my bill is down to $90. All I have on my account now is the EIP balance for the second N7 that I haven't surrendered yet. Try calling them and ask what is going on.

My bill somehow turned to negative $650 when I turned mine in

Actually the way I see it, if OP paid the bill in full, then T-mo would be selling at that point recalled device that shouldn't be sold at all and me think that would be illegal regardless of any possible future lawsuits, but I'm not a lawyer, also the fact it is under T-mo employee account makes it even more tricky. Either way they will probably put some deadlines in place soon, so free ride may end soon for everybody.

I have a similar issue. They had to escalate it to see where it went wrong. They removed the EIP, they have the phone, they credited only 425 of the eip. Waiting to hear back. The lady did state I was NOT the first to call in with issues relating to the 2nd recall.

I had similar situation as you. Yesterday I have received an SMS from T-mobile with my next bill due November 12th. Amount $519. $380 is an amount for galaxy note 4 that was waived the moment I upgraded to Note 7, plus I could keep the Note 4.
Just 2 days earlier I saw $90 as my next bill on tmo website.
So I went to T-mobile store. Explained all to the manager and he called T-mobile billing department and they rectified the my bill back to what it suppose to be. Today on T-mobile website I still see EIP outstanding balance of $780 for the note 7 as I write this.
I think that the carrier(s) are trying different tricks to let us part with our Note 7. Harassment so to speak.
The most ironic thing is that the manager in the store was on my side. Pulling out of his pocket Note 7 and saying until the recall is mandatory he will keep it too. With the smile on his face. This is no joke. I felt like I found an ally.
Also they had v20. (not on display but in the back of the store) So I could have it in my hands.
I was toying with the idea of jumping the ship before but after playing with v20 for few minutes, there is no way that I go for this device.

Has not happen to me but if it does im going to be piss and will probably leave samsung and tmobile altogether.
I try to play nice and was going to return the phone, even know i dont want to.
But every tmobile store i call tells me there out of stock of s7 edge and to just keep calling.
Went online ans there out of stock until Nov or Dev.
Not the kicker here they dont even carry the black s7 edge any more. Which i traded mines in for the note 7 at launch. And now gotta start all over with payments and now they dont even have them on in there systems any more.
And to top all that.
Samsung website is out of stock also. Without a date.
And there are reports that the s7 edge are catching fire also.
So all this is turning into crap.
But yes i can see tmobile doing this.
Getting the end user to pay it off and deal with samsung direct for the exchanges and problems with the phone.
And thats how they get you to return it. You dont wanna pay it all off so they , tell you, you can exchange it for another device and they will credit you whatever you already paid.
I guess we shall see what happens.
Samsung is releasing a UK update to kill charging to 60%.
This will got ota on the 30 or 31

I had the same thing happen see my attached upcoming bill but I'm gonna argue it because they ****ed up and are charging me for my previous Note 7 the one I returned.....idiots

Does that screen protector really look like that out of the box? I would like something like that because most of the protectors for this phone have a huge cutout at the top for all the sensors. Also are the edges rounded? Mind seem a little sharp. Thanks.

It does look like that

If you bought it outright. Yes. But it's hard to get there. Best way to do it would be calling and explaining the whole situation your in. They should be able to push the unlock to the app. There's usually a 40 day waiting period you have to wait. But I've heard stories about people doing what your doing and being able to request the unlock. I've also heard they tell people to use it on prepaid for 40 days and then being able to unlock it. Its about a 75/25 chance. Just call untill you get the right people. How did you order the device without an account

There's your answer lol

There's a limit per year. I think it's two. Generally I EIP the device and if I like it I'll pay it off. If I don't then I will jump it(I am on the original jump). Sometimes I will just buy outright like I did with the Note 7.
Be careful buying it because it's cheap. That person could do the BOGO get his device unlocked and switch carriers and leave the bill hanging. At that point you are SOL trying to get it unlocked.

I got my t-mobile model in today and have spent about 20 minutes on the phone with customer service trying to get it unlocked. The unlock device app was the first thing I tried and that did not work. I messaged the seller asking for him to contact t-mobile but I'm not expecting much to happen with that.
I'm about to go to the t-mobile store and speak with the employee who told me all I'd have to do is call and submit my imei and then I'd be unlocked. Part of me knew that was too good to be true but I was hopeful. If they can't figure it out in store I'm going to give the cell unlocker site a try.
If none of that works I will be selling it.

I'm about to go to the t-mobile store and speak with the employee who told me all I'd have to do is call and submit my imei and then I'd be unlocked. Part of me knew that was too good to be true but I was hopeful. If they can't figure it out in store I'm going to give the cell unlocker site a try.
If none of that works I will be selling it.

Has happened to me many times with T-Mobile. If you get on phone with the unlocking department just talk their ear off for an hour. Say the same things over and over and dont let them get off the phone. Be polite and just ask over and over and keep saying the same things like a robot, calmly. They will eventually either commit suicide right there on the spot or just unlock it. They have the power to unlock any phone at any time so dont believe their stories.

How to get in line for Galaxy buds?

I preordered the phone with Tmo via calling customer support. Is there a way to get in line now for the buds or do I have to wait until I get the phone?
Thanks in advance,

If it's anything like pre-ordering from Samsung then you have to wait until you get the phone. You then have to log into the Samsung Memebrs App, enter your new handsets IMEI, proof of pre-order etc and then wait for Samsung to send you your galaxy buds.
I could be wrong but I am fairly certain that the above will work regardless of who you order the phone through. However if in doubt, contact the retailer you pre-ordered from.

It clearly stated on my order that the buds would be shipped with the phone.

Then all I can advise is contact the retailer. Here in the UK what I described is how it works, I assumed (wrongly it appears) that it would work the same for the rest of the world.

It varies from country to country it seems. For example, it's exactly like you described here in Switzerland, while in Italy you have to pre-register your buy on an homepage before the phone actually gets released (last chance is 7 March at 2200), and then you still have to rely on the preinstalled app to complete the process.

Op, when you say you ordered from Tmo, I am guessing you mean T-Mobile in the USA? If so, then what I stated in my original post stands. Took all of 30 seconds to find the answer to your question as per the below link from T-Mobile's site.

Of course you may not be in the US, but I am fairly certain the free galaxy buds promo is done via Samsung wherever you are.
If this still doesn't answer your question then can you maybe give us a bit more info?

Aren't the free Galaxy Buds are included with the phone when you order from Samsung.com?

Apparently it may depend on the country. Mine will be included with the phone but I see others saying differently.

Maybe I should cancel my order and see if I get that offer instead.
Edit: Cancelled today and it moved the ship date back a week to the 22nd but I did get the voucher this time.

My wife wants a new tablet and the $130 voucher plus the 700 points from the phone will go a long way.
