[Q] Buying Galaxy Nexus in San Francisco. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi all!
I am looking for a physical store in San Francisco where they sell the Galaxy Nexus or where you believe i can find one from a reliable store. Please i need some quick input as i am just gonna be here for another 3-4 days.
I'm aware of Expansys and internet retailers, but must be a physical store. I've been a Nexus One early adopter.
Thanks.

No store in america has it yet, it hasn't been released at the moment.

My brother is in SF but he will leave saturday... as he is staying in a hotel.. it is a pita and not desirable to ship to a hotel. He said the only way he would think of buying me one was just physical only.
Thanks for the heads up. How much was on handtec? Shipping cost?

it came out to 439.98 GBP including shipping which on tuesday morning worked out to 684.48 USD. Now it would be about 690.94 USD due to conversion rate. I used paypal with my amex. they only have 1 shipping option to USA

Buy it from Expansys, I got mine in three days in the USA.

expansys-usa doesn't have stock though. they were expecting to get stock today but their website shows they are still waiting.
warning -- the handtec fedex shipping label says 'weekday delivery' so i wouldn't count on getting it on saturday

You could try Mobilecity too, they are in NYC. I think they are charging more than US$749 though.

There's a store north of Chicago that has them for > $800. It is unlikely they are the only ones in the country that imported and are reselling at a b&m location.

Negri is based in Las Vegas area as well so shipping should be quick.

You should have waited for the 32GB version. That being said, I'm still ordering the 16GB next week
Does anyone know when Handtec is supposed to ship their items? I bought it around 1am Pacific on wednesday morning and they still have not shipped it yet. They said I was supposed to get a confirmation when it gets shipped but it shouldnt possibly be this long

The information your getting sounds normal. I ordered mine Tuesday and, the estimated shipping from FedEx said should receive it tomorrow. If you read the last few pages of Hantec shipment thread, you will see the same pattern.
If they have stock it seems to be taking only a day and a half from the time you order it.

1am Pacific on wednesday was about 5pm on Tuesday here. According to their blog post they should have shipped it yesterday. Having said that it must have been crazy busy there! I imagine it'll go out today if it hasn't already (fyi its 4am Thursday in the UK now)
But there's no way for me to track it. They gave me a confirmation number and that's it. No info on if it's been shipped yet.

If you haven't gotten a tracking number yet, I'm sure it hasnt shipped yet. Maybe you should email handtec and ask them if/when it will ship. I ordered mine last Friday, and it just shipped yesterday because they didn't have stock in, so maybe that's what happened?

I just ordered my nexus from handtec... hopefully they still have stock. 696.31 is a large price to pay to not have to deal with Verizon's crap.
If you feel bad about paying $700 for a phone you probably should have waited. I didn't drop the money until I was 100% sure I wanted the phone
telepathically sent with my Galaxy Nexus which is being imprisoned by FedEx

(assuming you are in the usa and were considering waiting for the phone on verizon)
1. you paid $5 more than the unlocked gsm version of the phone will likely retail for in san francisco california ($650 * 1.085 = $705)
2. you are free to go to t-mobile, at&t, or any number of other gsm mvnos.
3. on t-mobile you can get a cheaper month-to-month plan than contract plan.
4. the verizon version is thicker and contains bloatware, not to mention is locked down to verizon. the monthly bill will be at least $80/mo for a new line and with a 4GB cap currently. you will probably pay $300 + tax at verizon, and locked into a $350 early termination fee. therefore you will pay the same amount as you just paid if for some reason you wanted to leave verizon.
5. more people on the planet will have the same version of the phone as you do. therefore you will reap the benefits of international android hackers more quickly.
6. gsm/hspa+ uses less battery than cdma/lte
7. you get it first
i could go on, but i hope that's enough to make you feel better
With the (probably) huge developer base, ice cream sandwich, easy root, no bloatware (I hate forced themes by manufacturers -.-), fastest updates by google + the modding community, how could it be a bad purchase?
$800 here
I just received mine from Handtec today. One thing you have to keep in mind is that FEDEX charges you the taxes and custom fees once it gets into your country. Mine was $700 but when it got to the local depot they called and said the extra charges come to just under $100. I live in Canada though and we have a fairly high sales tax as well as a provincial tax (%12 in total).
Nice thing was I ordered Tuesday morning and it got here 48 hours later.
Awesome phone!

Advice needed, where should I order my GN from?

So I habe a T-Mo GSII and I want to order a Galaxy Nexus, this'll be my first Nexus phone. I've been looking around the forums and there's different sites people have usied to order one. Any personal opinions on which is the best place to order from? Thank you in advance.

If you want top service, order from Expansys. Aside from having a rep on this board who is VERY responsive & helpful (COREY L) they also have a $40 discount coupon 40OFFGNX (that's four-zero-oh) which worked for me as of late last (Thurs) night.
Ordered last night 11PM (PayPal) and it was already picked up by Fedex and scheduled for delivery tomorrow by noon(I paid for SAT delivery).
My guess is if you wait another 2-3 weeks you will see a pretty decent price drop but if you're in a rush I'd say EXPANSYS.
I just sold my T-Mo GSII as well.
Seconded, Expansys
I pre-ordered mine from Expansys and it arrived at my house about 5 days after the release overseas (including Thanksgiving). The transaction was professional and painless.
Yes, it's pricey at the moment, but the price should come down after the festive season.
Failing the announcement of a domestic US GSM version, go with Expansys.
Handtec UK has consistently been $50 cheaper since release. I've picked 2 from them so far. They also have free shipping to USA. Since it is your first Nexus I should point out that any grey market device will have marginal or no warranty service, including expansys us, read the fine print not the ads. Good luck.
Thanks for all the input guys. Yea and I was really wondering too about he whole warranty thing, would there be none since I'm ordering overseas?

I think Negrielectronics.com still has a $40 off "HOLIDAYS" coupon. That makes it about $685, with free shipping.
+1 on expansys.
corey L is the sh!t!
Purchased mine from negrielectronics.com. Great experience.
Sent from my GSM Galaxy Nexus on TMoUS using Tapatalk
+1 for Negrielectronics.com . They had the cheapest price when I got mine, free shipping and I literally had it delivered to my house the next day. (Sadly it was a friday and I wasn't home so I had to wait until Monday for it to come around again but that was my bad.)
If you do use Negri, use amazon or google check out to speed things up, people processing credit cards with them have reported delays in the process.
Negri also - best price (after coupon), and shipped quickly. Also, no tax for me!
$685 is pretty good for this level of phone off contract.

I don't think I'll ever use expansys UK again. Mine was faulty on arrival and it took two weeks between reporting it faulty and getting the replacement through. Seemed like forever!!!
I don't know if that's typical for Internet retailers, quick to send but slow to resolve problems. It's all sorted in the end so can't complain but waiting two weeks was torture.
+1 for Expansys, Got mine delivered 2 days after ordering, no problems at all.
NewEgg is selling it for 719.00 right now, NewEgg is always on point, great service and prompt shipping.
Coupon codes available for both...

Ordered from Negri on the 22nd, the coupon was good for $50. My total was $680.50, and they were offering free shipping via FedEx Saver. Its due on the 29th.
I've always used Handtec, but with that coupon, Negri was cheaper.
Just order from Negri, they lower their price+ coupon. Paid $639.50

I sold my T-MO GS2 and bought a galaxy nexus as well. Great decision imo.
I ordered from Negri and it was there in three days. Ordered on Sunday night, got it on Wednesday morning. Got it for 685.
Ohhhh of course a couple days after I order, they lower the price.
Anyway, did you guys get FedEx shipping? Mine was shipped on the 22nd, and still says estimated delivery is the 29th. I was really hoping for like Monday, or Tuesday at the latest...

If you're still looking and depending on how close to the USA/CND border you are you could pick one up from Bell or Virgin off contract. Especially while the US DOllar is stronger. Just my 2cents...
I went to a Verizon store and bought mine for $650 and didn't have to worry about shipping.
Sometimes buying off contract doesn't make sense, can someone explain?
I have a question about buying unsubsidized phones off contract. It makes sense on certain plans, like T-mobile value plans that end up saving you money. However, for the rest of the folks who are on regular plans with Verizon, doesn't it make sense to get the phone subsidized from somewhere cheap like Amazon. I mean you're going to have the phone at least for 6 months, then you can pay the prorated Verizon ETF whenever you want to cancel your contract. Doesn't it come out cheaper? Am I missing something? Are you guys on different Verizon plans?

Anyone had a Galaxy Nexus actually ship from Google Play Store?

I ordered my Galaxy Nexus on Sunday and as of this weekend I still haven't received a shipment notification or tracking number yet my card has been charged already.
I was hoping for Amazon or Apple level service but I guess not. Anyone else who's ordered one recently had it ship yet or is the 2 day shipping they offer only 2 day shipping after 2 days of order processing?
I ordered mine the night it was announced. Got it 2 days later. Ordering on a Sunday is a bad idea. Not only is it the weekend, but they'll have to back process all the other weekend orders as well.
You'll get it. Be patient.

Should got the beam my nexus to me shipping option.
sent from what the heck is this app.
I got mine two days after I ordered. I placed my order on the 24th and it came on the 26th.
I ordered mine Thursday night, didn't receive a "shipped" confirmation until Friday night (a whole day) and it actually didn't ship until this morning.
So you should get a "ship" confirmation sometime tonight or tomorrow morning. It takes a day or two to process. You haven't even waited a day.
Ordered mine on the 24th and it was delivered to me on the 26th..

I ordered mine around 8pm on 4/25 and received it on 4/27. Ordering on Sundays usually delays things a bit.
got mine in 2 days. 2 business days is what theyre promising.
Ordered Tuesday the 26th got it thursday the 28th. It took forever to see the tracking status... well it felt like forever
I got mine 2 days after I ordered.
Ordered mine on Thursday and got it today. If you read the website it takes 4 "business days". So it will probably ship on Tuesday and you will get it Thursday. I'm already rooted rocking aokp on T-Mobile. Bought the same phone on sprint cause I already had sprint, but the network is just atrocious and didn't want to have this awesome phone on their crap network any more. Speeds on T-Mobile are amazing so far.

I was thinking of ordering it from google, but then where I am currently living in (Hong Kong), You can get it at a much cheaper deal by going to a local retail store (fortress). How much did you get your for? I'm going to get mines for around $3000 HKD.

I ordered mine on Saturday, 2AM AST. It would be interesting if I receive it before OP does, since I live in Puerto Rico (note: only difference between mail here and in any of the contiguous 48 states is that the only ground shipping option available would be a diver walking the Atlantic Ocean).
By the way, still haven't even received a shipping notice. That'll hopefully happen tomorrow!

Note 2 at Best Buy

Dose anyone here know if best buy is going to have them in stock on launch day? I preordered mine there on 10/27 and the employees at my local store aren't very helpful. ƀhey said I would get first one because they didn't even know it could be preordered but I would like to know when to expect it.

I pre ordered phones there before and they had them on launch day. I even got the note 10.1 there on launch day....So, I assume it will be the same. Your note 2 will be sitting in the locked drawer just waiting for you...
Has anyone ever had it delivered to their house? I ordered mine yesterday with home delivery.

My bet is the AT&T version will not be available on launch day at Best Buy. AT&T is shipping online preorders today. A group of us have been waiting for the Sprint version at Best Buy and have recently confirmed that the white version is finally arriving at the stores but they can't sell them until the 11th. Sprint stores started selling them on 10-25. This means Sprint Corporate probably had exclusivity for a couple weeks to sell the phones first and AT&T will probably do the same thing.

I guess I'll be calling today to check the same thing, I'll cancel my order as well if this is the case.
I called Best Buy and Best Buy Mobile in Greenwood Indiana. The Mobile store says they have it on the 11th and Best Buy store said they don't have a date yet. Suffice it to say I will be at the AT&T store at 9am picking up the Note 2 and cancelling my order with Best Buy Mobile.
Careful now...

Don't shoot yourself in the foot. Cancel NOTHING until you have one in hand, as the average employee, phone rep etc. at Best Buy OR AT&T haven't a clue when they will have or ship anything other than what they hear from the folks around them. You just have to check your options, and be ready to pounce if one turns up, LOL, but canceling orders on spec is a losing game, trust me, I have been there and done that more than once. My frustration is I only have a debit card, and any pre-order I ever place always debits the money for at least a week, and then rills the charge off if it has not delivered or shipped. It ties up my money so I can't hedge my bets with a backup plan. Fortunately i git lucky this go around and have one arriving via Fedex late delivery tomorrow.
Just confirmed that Best buy mobile cannot sell a note 2 till Sunday that is the release date for them
even though I preordered for November 9th

I work for best buy mobile so I can counter-confirm your claim. We have a HARD street date for AT&T of 11/9 and sprint is 11/11. That may have been what they were referring to. Or you got a dumb employee that doesn't know how to pull up street dates. And trust me, I know more than my **** when it comes to AT&T releases for this company
I'm in NYC, 5th ave store & Union Square store confirms Sunday the 11th. But for the Sprint version. They already have them. AT&T isnt in stock yet and should arrive towards the end of the month (or 2 weeks).
so just got word that my best buy will be receiving a couple white note 2

Don't worry, I will be cancelling only after I get one from AT&T. Then I will get my gift card refunded.

Did you have the Note 2's in store as of today or are you expecting them to arrive in a truck early tomorrow?
When I called the best buy mobile number from their website, the rep claimed that they should have them in stores tomorrow according to their system. So hopefully that is the case...

Release of SW2 in US?

According to Sony, it's not officially released in US yet. So where do you guys buying it from? I see it's being sold on Amazon (US) but is that an official Sony US retailer? Others mention eBay and someone mentioned a store in the mall (DC I think?), etc. I understand Amazon merchants could be from UK or in general outside of US, the same with ebay. So, are there any official US stores that sell it? And for those who bought it in US, where you able to contact Sony support (in US) to answer your questions?

Yes mine came from a company in NY called TECH1 and it came in official Sony packaging and everything.....definitely an official watch. The US customer service has been able to help me with a few questions on the watch.....I love it
Anyone know where this one is from? Link
Newegg
Amazon listed as 2-4 weeks and the other companies listed on Amazon are not Authorized Dealers. I checked. So I found it on Newegg. They were in stocked and shipped next day. Love the watch but I wish there were more apps. Where's the weather app and no watch faces.

I just ordered one from there. It's been shipped, supposed to arrive between 18 and 28 October.
Sold by http://www.amazon.com/gp/aag/detail...1-6475427&seller=A3QWSZ44N8P3XH#aag_legalInfo
I bought mine on eBay from a place in Texas and they shipped it out the day it released. I've had it since last Friday afternoon and I love it.

They're listing it for $999.00 for some reason, but I bought mine for $189.00 USD.

They may be out of stock and put a high price to deter buyers
Hi guys, if I buy the watch from Amazon.co.uk with metal strap, can I get support from Sony USA under warranty terms? Does Sony have international warranty for their products? Thanks!
newegg all the way. originally ordered from mobile fun, but after they backordered it for two weeks despite them having it listed as in stock and ready to ship, i cancelled and called newegg. the girl said they had about 76 in stock so i ordered it from them. 199 +25 for overnight shipping. ordered it friday and got it on monday.. ive had the watch for about week and i love it, even though the amount of apps is pretty depressing. give me a music widget and a battery percentage icon, and ill be good for a while. :good:

Sony.com has both models in stock now for $199.99/$219.99. I just placed my order. There appears to be a glitch right now that allows you to get the 3 year replacement/accidental damage plan for free! Add the watch to the cart, but do not select a warranty plan. Edit the warranty plan within the card and for some reason the 3-year plan is $0. I used Chrome, if that matters....

MobileFun is bad news. I ordered from them and wasn't even given a confirmation email. Very poor communication and their US phone number just rings. I had to get my credit card company involved to cancel my order. They said it was in stock when I ordered (Oct 15th) and wouldn't give me any further information on shipment or backorder status.
