Don't you have to pay twice taxes if you buy the
phone from UK?
I'll be in the U.S. for the next 14 months and i was wondering about the same thing, because the XL doesn't even work in europe.. so i would have a nice $800 brick...

Nope - you don't pay the UK taxes if you're buying it for immediate export - in other words, if you're getting it shipped directly to somewhere outside the EU...
Also, there is, or will be, a Euro/Asian version of the XL with global LTE frequencies.

Negrielectronics bro! That's where I get all my phones.

What's the best deal going to get this phone shipped to a US resident? Are there any online retailers cheaper than negrielectronics?

"FREE" causes a lot of issues with a lot of consumers, mostly with expectations. Plus, the "freebie hunter" crowds, the kind that will bring 50 coupons to the grocery checkout aisle and buy groupons to places that they already go to every week (and are cheap to begin with) are horrible customers.
Just adding the penny makes a world of difference.

You can't do that can you?

Yes. You're entitled to return your device if you're not satisfied with it within a particular period.
Just make sure that they cancel your contract as well.

Amazon has been pretty nice with their return policy, I have returned items that doesn't have issues but I wasn't happy with. I just wrap up everything neatly as possible and usually get full refund minus shipping.
I know there are many people on contract, but for me I wouldn't even pay 1 cent and enter two years contracts. You have to pay double ETF if you need to change carrier, one to Amazon and one to the Carrier.
Early Termination Fee (ETF)
If I terminate this Agreement before the end of my Commitment, I will pay an ETF of up to $325 if purchasing certain specified Equipment (e.g., Smartphones) OR up to $150 for other Equipment for each tel. no. associated with my service as indicated in the Terms of Service.

Couldn't upgrade thru BB website last night.
Went to a local Best Buy this morning. No stock until next Friday (11/2). Same 299.99 for 2-year renewal. Tax will be like 60 some bucks.

wth do these cost so damn much more than a tablet with pretty much the same specs (gn10.1)?

On a whim yesterday, I stopped in a local Sprint store. Said they didn't know when it would be launched and wasn't expecting stock. About a mile away is another Sprint store. Stopped in there and they had 2.
Since I recently upgraded to the GS3, I wasn't able for upgrade pricing. They told me the stock was for upgrades only. After a few minutes of chatting, not only did they sell it to me, but they gave it to me for $570. :good:

Bestbuy.com has upgrade stock for 299 now.

Where did you find this?

No, I meant where did he find that they had it in stock. Lol. I know its on their site, but they don't have any in their inventory. So I was asking if he had uncovered info on having them in stock.

haha I was wondering where he seen it as well because I keep refreshing the page and still don't see a change.

Anyone know if Best Buy will price match Sprint's retail price? I am contemplating selling them back my GS3 for $349 and picking up the Note. I'd rather pay $300 than $450...

Just went ahead and bought it from the Sprint website... 650.00. + Tax ~ 700.00. Good thing I'm selling a bunch of tablets and breaking even

Cheapest way to upgrade before being eligible for upgrade?

Hi, just wondering if there are any loopholes that have worked for anyone in the past.
I'm really interested in either the Nexus 4 or Note 2. I love the S2 but I dont have an upgrade until Jan 2014 and these new phones are just so intriguing. I definitely don't want to pay a non contract price for these phones, but was hoping to sell my S2 and use it to buy a new phone at hopefully a good price.
Any advice?

not sure of any loop holes. most companys make sure there are none.
i say sell the s2 and get the n4. with the price being so low its worth it.

I looked up on the sprint buyback program and they'll give you $85 for the e4gt.

Well I have three phones mine wife and daughter wife never likes upgrading so I get her upgrades with mine not cheap but it works

That's at the moment. Look at the Gnex. It was released GSM first then Verizon got it, and then Sprint. I don't think Google is that dumb to cut Verizon from getting the Nexus and Sprint has gotten the other Nexus devices aside from the Nexus One.

I get the distinct impression that future nexuses (nexii?) will be gsm only given the widespread dissatisfaction with the update process on CDMA carriers

When I got my gs2 back in April I wasn't up for my upgrade till mid may. Anyway I brought it to a 3rd party sprint store and told me we could pretend it had water dmg and in that case sprint cuts you a few weeks slack and forks over the upgrade as its cheaper for them then asurian claims sending a new phone....at least that's what my rep said to me... he's a nice guy

I'm not sure there will be one, perhaps just maybe but I highly doubt it as google was left with a bad taste with their experience with Verizon and Sprint.

I love the hardware of my epic touch but I know we can do better in regards of software. Jb leak is proof of that and what is likely to come. However I am getting tired of running gb. Having a nexus 7 tablet doesn't help my case when i get constant updates as soon as good drops new source. I am hoping I can hold out for the jb update or even a newer leak. But if not I would love to find a way to get a sg3 for cheap. And I don't really want to add another line.

I used to always buy my phones out of contract, I would ebay my phone, get paid apply that $ towards my new phone and ship the old one out. I would usually ship the next day so I wasn't holding up my buyer.
These days I just buy from Craigslist. Picked this phone up for 240 around mid summer, I think.

I agree with this, I bought my sgs2 in June for $220 off contract (used). It came in great shape and working perfectly. I'm thinking I'll keep buying phones this way - just wait for them to be ~9 months old and you can get them for the upgrade price. This way if a new phone drops that I just have to have I'm always ready with the upgrade. Also if I somehow kill my current phone I don't have to worry about carrying insurance, just use my upgrade on whatever's out.
The only thing better is direct from Google pricing, which I may switch to but I will loose some coverage in my state by leaving CDMA so I haven't decided on that yet.

On Black Friday you can purchase the SIII for $50. You could definitely buy that, sell it along with the S2 and buy a note.

Wait. $50 out of contact?
or let more rephrase. I wouldn't get the $50 price because I'm not eligible for upgrade until 1/14 right?

I've heard that people sold their current phones on Craigslist, used that money towards buying out the rest of their contract then upgrade.
Or sell on Craigslist and use that money towards buying one you want on Craigslist. Either would cost around the same

I wonder what happened to calling the retention center and threatening to leave the sg2 and the countless problems the ICS update I would think would be a great bartering chip to try and get retention to let you upgrade to the sg3 either cheap or for nothing.

Hah, I can assure you, after 20 phone calls, they don't give a **** about their customers.
I've had my account open with sprint since 1991.
There are 5 lines on the account.
They have made ~$50,000 from my family.
Yea, no, I will switch to anything better as soon as possible.

(Q) getting a Note 2

Hello guys,
Im on a family plan, but my line ia not due for an upgrade till june. On the other hand my brothers line is due for an upgrade in 14 days.
My question is if I upgrade my brothers line can I then swap the note 2 to my line with no problems after a few hours? My brother would get my sg2 for his line.

Also, you would be better off buying from a Site like Best buy or Radio Shack etc. You could swap the phones right in the store. Or as soon as it's activated, you can call sprint and have it switched.
If you purchase from one of those online sites they often require that the device stays on the upgrade line for 180 days. So you can't swap, or you'll get hit with a crazy fee over $200. Best Buy also matches online sales prices from Amazon. Just an FYI.

Amazon just lowered their prices. It's $99 for new line and $169.99 for renewals. Have the screenshots to prove it. Better take advantage now. Amazon changes their prices from one day to the other. I got best buy to match the $150 then couple days later they matched again for the $99. Only catch is some best buys are no longer matching online retailers. Luckily my local bb was doing it even before the last holiday policy. Hopefully you guys get lucky too.

You got me excited. Unfortunately the $169 price is for add lines. It's still $250 for upgrades. $99 for new service is an awesome price though.
And I recent just did what the OP asked about. I bought the note 2 titanium from bestbuy.com using my Mom's upgrade. It shipped next day (even though they quoted 3 weeks). I activated it and swapped the lines instantly on the phone with sprint.The next day I took it into my local best buy and they price matched it down to $250. I generally despise Best Buy, but they are a great place to buy cell phones.
