What is the best place to buy the GSM Galaxy Nexus currently that actually has the device in stock?
It seems like prices have been increasing recently. Less than a month ago on May 31 the device could be had for a mere $370 including tax and shipping from eBay DailySteals. Then it was $390 on Amazon including tax and shipping. Prices at Amazon have been creeping up slowly since and now Expansys is out of stock. Google Play puts it at about $445 including tax and shipping. Newegg still seems to have it for $410 including tax and shipping. Is there anything better out there?
Don't buy a Samsung product, look at all the complaints first about the GN. It seems nice since its a google experience, I would wait for the Iphone 5 honestly, can't wait to make the transition!
ignore the troll lol, the phone is amazing. It does have lag, i hate to admit it but it's fact but after ROM's and kernels you will barely notice it(im not i love the gnex i just won't lie to myself about an inevitable fact) the play store would be the best place to get it tho. It's the only way of getting it in the US with a proper warranty and you get better support.
I have the phone already. A friend is asking where to buy it.
I have the impression that they have run out of Nexuses (Expansys) or are at least running quite low (Amazon) and that this has been affecting prices. Samsung has probably been producing S3s instead.
In the US, I would never buy the phone anywhere but Google Play. Full warranty and support and a good price.

First, call me troll if it makes you feel worthy but obviously I am not the only one with a problem, OBVIOUSLY.
Second, check again. Google only covers it for 14, then you are f***ed, I mean, stuck in Samsungs hands.....

You get a full manufacturers warranty. I realize your angry, but maybe you need to go yell into a pillow and come back to the forum when you're done being on a rager.

Thanks, but I'm looking for brand-new. It seems like used prices are quite high anyway, probably because the one was never released by carrier here in the US.
Right now it seems like Newegg is the best option.
Let's get back on topic.
Either talk about where to buy as the subject says or don't post here.
Thank you for your cooperation

I got tracking on Thursday too. I have read that they send out fake tracking so that they can receive funds (some cards/paypal don't transfer funds until product ships). I contacted them and this is what they had to say:

Hi,
The tracking number for my order still says "A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated."
It has been more than 72 hours, can you please check and let me know the status of my order. Thank you.

That's bull crap haha. I read somewhere else they said because of tropical storm Issac, they shipped it out yesterday. Company is shady. I just filed dispute on PayPal and escalated the claim.
They probably just printed the labels and have it sitting there.
Also that same guy said he can't find my order lol. Great and stellar computer system they have there. Also their twitter page is a joke.

Hey guys,
So yea I also ordered the GS3 from this site, and received an email and tracking number about my package. I am as eager as you guys, trying to be patient. So is this deal a fake and was just a scam for our money? Or are they truly experiencing shipment issues?
I am just so tired of waiting, its been a fricken week!!!! I ordered my case on thursday, and expected it to arrive after my phone, but it ended up delivering monday. Now this is a JOKE!

Idk, they say it was delayed because of the tropical storm during the weekend? Wtf lol, ups said it was fine no delays soooo. haha
Like dkotagi said, they probably did the shipping labels so they can receive thefunds, so yaaa.
Im guessing they took our money and taking showers with it right now. Replies from support is awful. Takes them 2-3 days to reply back which is lame.
Dude i couldnt wait, so i just disputed the payment on paypal. And i just bought one off amazon wireless for 549.99 no tax free 1 day shipping for me. Checked ebay around the same price so i didnt really care
Getting my sgs3 tomorrow!
hopefully paypal does something because they have until sept 9 with paypal or i get my money back

Im not so sure what to believe.
I have read some good reviews about 1SaleAday, but they all talked about the elongated shipping period. And it might be coincidence that the storm effected it, but I think its a plausible excuse.
SO, I shall WAIT. I will be pulling my hair out, but till then, patience is my new best friend!!! And, I did use American Express, which has a policy of 30 days to ship my product, if not, I'll get my money back. So either way I'll wait. And if I have to wait so long, I might end up waiting for the release of the NEW Samsung Galaxy Note II!!!!
But thats in October... *pulls hair out*

well it barely hit florida. So they are just lying out of their ass.
If left florida during the weekend? so they couldve shipped any day this week and on thursday and friday. So i wont play this waiting game. Id rather just dispute the transaction than wait 3-4 days for a email response every 3 days.
Simply WOW!!
So now I have to wait for another 7-10 BUSINESS DAYS for it to process!! That will be Sept 17 and then you can add 15 Business days shipping time. Looks like we may have to wait till October. I am opening a dispute with PayPal. I am done dealing with these guys. See below for their latest reply:

Very shady company to deal with. Also take screen shots as proof and their policy so you can send it to PayPal. Ex privacy policy, email shipment, order status,emails, and this thread aswell
Also leave a review on reseller ratings. Prob do a BBB tomorrow when I have time

I'm hoping not to start a flame war here...let me start by saying I do not hate my Note 2. I think it's a great phone.
The thing is, i haven't really used my stylus in any real sense, and it was really the main reason I got the device...also the multi-window. I only use multi-window while driving to watch a movie, while keeping a tiny segment of google maps on screen. This is really not something I should be doing anyway
thirdly...htc one.
anyway, my phone is well preserved, no scratches, and always had a case and screen protector since day one. how much should I be able to sell this device? I have no experience selling phones, what's the best way to do this? Any advice would be great. my phone is under contract. is there issues i need to know about?

My best advice would be to shop around.. EBay and Craig's list would b good places to get a idea of a fair price.. EBay auctions definately because the buyers set the price.. Just b sure to shop around and don't stop on 1 price.. Good luck to u..

Your best option if your not familiar in selling is to use swappa.com. It's a great way to sell your phone. No eBay fees and only charge is the $10 you pay after selling phone. Just remember to calculate shipping costs on your asking price. And don't sell yourself short if your phone really is in good condition. Just look at previous sold phones and what they sold for and base it on that.
Other option is Craigslist. Only problem with this is you'll get lots of spam emails and hagglers trying to get a great phone at a cheap price. But if you somehow find someone that is worth it you keep all the profit. Just make sure you sell in a public place and take a counterfeit money pen to make sure your not being duped. Best thing is to meet at a Sprint store.
Good luck. If you have any questions feel free to message me. I do this all the time. Have sold my last 2 phones on swappa and a couple on Craigslist.

Swappa is becoming the best place to sell your phone since they only charge 1 fee. The only other fee you pay is with PayPal once you get paid. You must use PayPal. They also only sell phones that are in working condition and with clean esn. So far more and more people shop and sell on swappa. You can even link your phone sale on Twitter and Facebook. Just go on there and look at info they give you before you sell. It's easy and if your price seems high you can compare it to other phones and see how much they sold for. You can even lower the price anytime you want, or raise it.

I just checked local Craigslist, cheapest I've seen for a Sprint Note-2 is $400, seen one that was flashed to Cricket for $349. Most are 400 and up.
Thanks guys. Very helpful

All my phones have been sold through eBay. Even after the fees and PayPal fees, I feel that's where I pocket the most money after the sale. That also include shipping.
HAHA. MultiView - watching movies with GPS on the other screen.
Not to hijack the thread @THE op.. But you can sell a phone that's under contract right and avoid fees with a phone not being on the line by just getting a cheap phone to put on it until you sell the main phone right?

anyone interested?
Comes with 2 iSmooth screen protectors (the 3rd is installed...semi-perfectly, with a lint trapped in the upper left side, away from the screen) + sprint body glove case + all accessories, and original box.
looking for whatever the lowest in price in swappa. shipping included. this is the titanium version.
Caveat though, I can't ship it until I receive my new phone.
They go on Craigslist for $500 id sell mine for 450 in pristine condition. Thinking about the LG Optimus bro I cannot go back to something smaller

So I go in to buy a Black N3 today.
I walk in and what up to the guy at the counter.
He says, "Can I help you"
I says, "I'm here for a Note 3"
He says, "You exchanging one"
I said, "You having a lot of returns are ya"
He says, "Uhhh No, just asking"
I thought it was strange that he would ask me right off the bat if I was doing a return?
Of course I called them an hour before and they had Black ones, when I walked in, they didn't have any.
You suppose they exchanged them out in that time?
Probably from all the boot looping people have been trading them in from.

The imei of the Note 3's weren't being properly read on the network yet so a lot of folks were calling stores saying they had defective devices. Some store reps hadn't read the internal email yet and have been exchanging devices in hopes of "fixing" the issue. It's been resolved by now.

Little bit off topic but does tmo stores charge a restocking fee for returning unopened devices?
I exchanged mine yesterday. It would intermittently stop registering touches unless you were using the S-Pen. Sometimes it would do that for several minutes. It got very annoying. It may have been doing that since day one, but I used the S-Pen only for the first several days. I then started using my finger and noticed it. When I exchanged mine, I used my finger only and and its been working flawlessly. For once, it even did the issue for the sales guy too. I'm glad I returned it too. It turns out, Knox may be a new generation of E-Fuse triggers and I had rooted my first Note 3. I'm leaving my new one unrooted for now until all that jazz gets sorted out. I remembered I can use Helium to backup/restore apps and their data without root. That was my primary reason for rooting.

Little bit off topic but does tmo stores charge a restocking fee for returning unopened devices?

Usually a $50 reboxing fee for returning a phone during buyer's remorse but I notice on my N3 box it says $75.
If you already gave your Note 7 back for a refund but for some reason are still reading these Forums, say "HAY!"...
So much termoil in here I'm just watching it crash and burn.... *cough*
Loved my N7.. Got S7E.. For now.

Same here. Got the S7 Edge on Tmobile Jump on Demand. If the 8 comes out and impresses us enough I may go to that in the spring/summer. Missing the Note. But the S7 edge is certainly holding its own

I wonder if any devs are planning to keep their unit?
At this point it's more a study in human psychology than a device forum. You have venting posts from those that are pissed about what they endured, genuine hardship stories from those that bought third party that are orphans, and those in denial rationalizing away the incident and bolstering each others reasoning for keeping the phone. You normally have to pay for theatre this good.
I have a replaced note 7, I will wait the s8 launch, here my carrier will honor the 1 year warranty period, and, for that period, the exchange as well, so, in the meantime, I will enjoy my note 7, and, if I decide within the warranty period, will get a full refund, it is win-win situation!

No one, at least no authorized dealer, is going to repair a Note7 under warranty or for cash. If something happens to it and if whatever that something is falls under warranty you'll be give the option of exchanging the phone for something else. To repair a recalled phone and put it back in the owner's hands is irresponsible and leaves whoever did it liable should the phone have an incident.
Hey

Don't forget, you also have the morally superior and socially responsible people who know far better than anyone else, who are happily and vigorously spewing toxic file hate towards anyone who's still using the phone and even remotely contemplates the idea of keeping it, or even keeping it for a short period of time until they can figure out what phone to replace it with.

It may even be illegal to do that in Canada. Possibly illegal in the USA too.
I know in Canada, you can't give or sell a recalled product to anyone (unless they are involved in the recall and you are giving it to them to give your device back under that recall). I kind of wonder if a business would be liable under the consumer protection and safety act if they repaired a recalled product and gave it back. I assume they would, because they knowingly gave someone (a customer, no less), a recalled and "dangerous" product.

Yeah seems like many are scoffing at people still using the device until they can replace it which is amusing ....and I can do even better than that .I returned and got a refund for my first one, then quickly realized i made a mistake getting rid of it so got another one lol.
Simple fact is there is not currently anything on the market which can replace it at least for me.
And anyone who has a problem with that, tell someone who cares what you think because I dont
Illegal or not they can still be bought and be repaired.... if parts are available which admittedly would likely be an issue.

You must be morally bankrupt! Where is your sense of social responsibility and justice?
Think of the children!
If it only saves one life, it's worth it!
Who even NEEDS a phone like the Note 7 anyways? I mean, really, phones like that have no place in a civilized society.
Hey! Waiting for Samsung to ship me the "explosion proof box" to ship my phone back to Samsung.

I just arranged an appointment to have my Note 7 returned on 3 November.
I am still sticking around because I am waiting for a report from Samsung, explaining what caused the batteries to combust.
Hey! And I'm with the other guy, this is better then any movie out right now. There is great drama on this forum. We have elation, sorrow, revenge, love, hate, and everything between.
I hate you all. I love you. It's outrageous. It's fantastic.

my phone went back and I've moved on, but still watch this just to see when the problem is actually stated and to see if the people sticking with the phone blow up.
