You still don't understand. Which is odd because no one else has had this problem. You can buy one $25 certificate for $32. You can buy one $100 certificate for $115. A savings off the four at $25 each price of $8.
I don't know what else there is to say about it.

i wasnt the first person to bring this up.
but your explanation makes no sense... why would anyone pay MORE for a certificate than its worth? why pay $32 for something only worth $25???
seems strange imo
I'm interested...has anyone else bought one yet?
Good question. The reason is because when I buy the certificates I take a hit from my bank for a foreign transaction and also from PayPal. A few dollars are added for my trouble. That's why.
I have never had one customer complaint. I used to sell on Ebay until they pulled my listings. Feel free to visit my blog for more info. daymeansday.blogspot.com

How much did you pay for your Tytn II/Kaiser/Tilt?

Just curious.
I bought my AT&T Tilt for $99 (after a $100 rebate) from Cartoys Online.
I've heard of people paying as much as $1000 for their phone. I assume thats for an unlocked unbranded version.
How much did you pay?
$399, with two $50 rebates, bringing it to $299 (with a 2yr contract, new account), bought it about two weeks after launch for ATT
I paid $150 AR during AT&T's black Friday sale on Premier. I almost paid $300 for it second hand, but the guy from craigslist flaked out on me... twice. I'm glad he did though. The $800 price tag you've seen going around was for the HTC Kaiser (TyTN II) which has the front-facing camera.
I bought mine (A genuine TytnII with all on board (except the video driver) ) 27.500 New Taiwan Dollar
Must be some 800 USD indeed.
I paid -100 dollars!
$250 in store with 2 year contract -100 mail in rebate.
I also got another line with a $50 mail in rebate and sold the phone that came with it on eBay for $200. Paid 0 in store for that phone (Samsung a737)
So in total I put $100 in my pocket... my girlfriend kept her unlocked V3 (I know, pretty mean...)
$1140 AUD Outright
I could have gotten it cheaper online but never underestimate the value of a local warranty Plus it came with the full version of Copilot Live 7 and an after-market screen protector.
Wasnt cheap... but worth it. HTC gear is hard to find in Perth.
$600 CAD from Craigslist
mine was free! well, almost. $50 insurance deductable.
800 CAD local
£480.00 each, we bought six of them (!!!)
Mine was free from orange with my upgraded contract
i paid £50 ($100) on a 12 month £20 ($40) a month contract
paid $870.00 AUD delivered, its HK stock though, so the power plug is different. warrenty is via local which is good.
ran it for 1 day as stock, then flashed dutty v4.....very happy.
KC
Bought a TyTN II from 3 Australia for 1049 AUD, so thats like 947 USD. expensive but worth it!
Drooch
Bought mine on Expansys for 660 euros...and i tought it was the cheapest price around!
It's absourd that in an italian store a kaiser costs not less than 800 euros while in the US you can buy it for nothing...
Paid £105 as an upgrade phone from T-Mobile on a 1 year (£35 a month) contract.
It's very interessting to see how much the Kaiser cost in different countrys.
My contract in Germany included a pay-out of 100€.
So I paid for my Kaiser (VPA 1615v; incl. all monthly fees) 280€ or 410$
I didn't pay anything since it's a company phone. But they paid $299.
I bought mine with a two year contract at bestbuy for $325.00 with a plan of 65 or lower....
with a plan of 65 or higher it cost you $299.00.
I gave in an old cellphone so that they can discount $30.00.
$340 off Craig's List, and work will reimburse me $100. Will sell once (if?) T-Mobile USA rolls out their 3G.

Hidden Fees

Did anyone else find it interesting that there is an extra $20 to the price in tax and shipping? Now maybe its just me but I feel if you spend more that $100 for a small item online shipping should be free. And $13 what is that google trying to recoup some of the profit margin. I could ship it myself for under 10 2 day from USPS and they probably get a discount for mass shipping. Dont get me wrong I still ordered it, Im just slightly frustrated with how they worked out the price.
tax is normal .
shipping 13 bucks, thats fine..
Google isnt amazon

They aren't "hidden fees", they are tax and shipping... just as stated. Hidden fees are things like a $30 "upgrade" fee that is not obviously stated but will show up on your Verizon bill when you agree to a new 2 year contract for them. Tax and shipping are fees for the taxes that are obligatory and to cover the cost of packing and shipping the product. The Nexus 7 is being practically sold at cost as-is, so complaining about a small shipping fee is a bit uncalled for.
The fact that Amazon has gotten away with not charging tax for all of these years is mind-boggling, I guarantee has a lot to do with political lobbying and strong-arming. Don't get used to it, as they will soon (rightfully) have to charge tax and submit it to states. Google rightfully collecting and submitting sales tax is a sign that they are a company that tries to do the right thing, that's welcome in this day and age.
Nothing hidden about it...you get full disclosure of it and you don't have to buy if you think it's absurd.
Hidden may not be the best word. But I think they are pocketing some money from the shipping charge. There is no way it cost that much to send, to me its a crafty way to make the MSRP lower.
Mine was 94 cents tax (Kinda weird) and 13 dollars shipping.

They do two-day shipping. I can't quote all of the costs, but I will see that a flat-rate Priority Mail box from USPS costs $16.95 these days. Shipping isn't cheap, unless you are Amazon and can negotiate a deal based on the fact that you will be shipping 10s of thousands of products every day.

exactly. not unreasonable at all. i would gladly pay a little extra on shipping so my device isnt destroyed in transit.
When they are selling a device at pretty much cost price I think $20 on shipping and tax is more than fair enough..its better than the $200 profit apple wack on each ipad.
Stop complaining its a bloody good deal!
I would be fine with the extra shipping and taxes and stuff, but I've never seen Arizona tax anything I've bought anything online, yet because of the tax it took my $250 tablet plus $13.99 shipping and made it $280. That seems a little much for me, though I did buy the device.

That's because states don't collect sales tax, retailers do (are suppose to anyway), but only if they have a nexus (ha!) in the state.
I didn't have to pay sales tax on mine... just shipping and $13 isn't bad.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Canada (Ontario) pricing:
Nexus 7 (16GB) $259.00
Shipping: $19.99
Tax: $33.67
Total: $312.66
Mine was
Nexus 7 (16GB)
$249.00
Shipping (Two Day Shipping):
$13.99
Tax:
$18.41
Total:
$281.40
Shipping price seems fair and taxes are, well, taxes . . .
Some of that cost will be offset by the $25 credit for apps.
Seeing as the amount of money I save in shipping with amazon prime I think I can handle at most $30 in taxes and shipping

Hidden fees lol don't be a salty consumer!
Gamestop
I pre-ordered at game-stop, just because of that.
Same deal, movie, book and 25 bucks, but I'll save a little bit on shipping.
I haven't been quite this excited about a tech product since I bought my skinny Mac in 1984. I was a bit disappointed in the extra fees, but it's hard to be upset about it. It's a way better deal than my puke green Mac was!
Paying $229.50 for the eight gigabyte joint. Texas has taxes.

I hear you man, I am ridiculously excited for this thing. I already have a 4.7" Android phone and an iPad 3 but knowing I have this thing coming brings an ear to ear grin to my face every time I think about it.

[Q] HTC One at Amazon.com

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

Battery replacement by Official Oneplus service in US

Does anybody have any experience with this. I was wondering what the actual cost was.
The battery itself showed $12 online but nothing on labor and taxes.
I've done it in France and paid a total of 39 euros (UPS shipping and pickup included). Probably, you would have a comparable price in $...
