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?

Don't forget Handtec as well, they can ship overnight!

[Q] Any ideas where to buy?

Hey guys! So I've had my eye on the Verizon GNex for a while now but my parents are unwilling to give up their upgrade so I can get it... Ebay is an option but also pricey for a used one ya know... Does anybody have any ideas where else i can look? besides craigslist
Again, I wanna find a verizon samsung gnex lol no GSM

Those are really your only options. I doubt you will find them online for cheaper.... Maybe amazon?

What's wrong with clist? Just make sure you meet at a Verizon store and you have the ESN checked. Make a test call, check that it powers off / on quickly. Fast GPS lock, etc etc.

Look in the XDA Market Place or Swappa.

Amazon has the device for $650. I doubt you'll find a much better price on a new device.
As stated above, check out your local forums or swappa.

That can't be right. A new one on eBay is $475-$350 and a brand new unlocked GSM version is only $350. I've seen some good Verizon ones on Clist and that'd probably be your best bet.

There's a couple for sale in the xda marketplace...

i checked out the marketplace and couldnt find the vzw one, am i just dumb and couldnt see it? lol
im checking swappa now, and ebay is good up until a few hours before the auction ends... then it jumps from reasonable to NUTS

I'm not looking to spend over $300 for this.. i really doubt i can find anything for cheaper lol so thank you for giving me some ideas.. ill still look back here to see if anybody posts so if you find a deal let me know!

Unfortunately, Verizon's business model is a dying, failing breed. They overprice the phones so they can sell them at a subsidized price to make it seem like you are getting a good sale. You are paying easily double for a phone that is worth half that price (look at the price on the Play Store). I would recommend Craig's List, or maybe keep a close eye on eBay, but you aren't going to be able to find an LTE Nexus for anywhere near $300.
Either convince your parents, or save up!

If your contract is up, call 611 & when prompted for input say "cancel". This should get you to the loyalty department, 'inform' them you are thinking of switching to AT&T because they offered you free Galaxy S3s if you did. They will definitely give you a better price than you can find anywhere as far as retailers are concerned. Please report your success story with us

My dad simply just called customer loyalty and said we were thinking of switching and what's the best they could do for us. So I ended up getting the 32gig white s3 for 240 and that includes shipping and all fees

Take it from a man that makes his OWN deals. If you tell them you aren't too satisfied and another carrier is already "courting" you they will make you a better offer than what this kid above listed. Trust me.
No offense kid.

Agreed! T-mobile has been losing contract customers in significant numbers to either pre-paid or other carriers. This above strategy used to work for me... until I found a family member that works there... That's what you really need!

Just to add to the info on what you should be able to easily get: my contract expired and I called to "verify" that it was. I also mentioned that I could get the same phone for $150 less with another carrier at the time. She immediately offered the phone for $229 (16gb) with a $150 bill credit to bring it down to $79. PLUS she gave me the $20 5gb data plan and a $10 monthly credit for 24 months! Also got free overnight shipping. Oh and I still get to send in for the $50 rebate!
Hope that helps give you an idea what to shoot for.

If you're off contract tmobile will do close to anything to keep you if you have been loyal (5+ years, no late payments)
For me I always jump on the latest and greatest so i'm constantly under contract, tmo still honors my loyalty and gives me great pricing along with monthly discounts.

Will other stores carry the note ii?

I'm able to upgrade on December 1st and was wondering if there will be any other places to buy the note from. Black Friday is coming soon and if stores like amazon carry it I'm sure they'll dampen the $300 price a bit, but if it's only available on sprint and best buy it doesn't look like it will happen.

You can buy it from Wirefly and other online retailers right now for a discounted price.
If you mean brick and Mortar stores, Radioshack should be selling (On their website) and maybe WalMart too.

It's great that there are other carriers. I think I'll buy black friday. Does anyone know how long you have until you can activate the phone? My upgrade is available December 1. I was wondering if it's possible to buy the phone and wait a week before activating it. When I first signed up for sprint I know it was about 2 weeks after receiving my phone from amazon, I'm not sure if what the policy is with other stores and upgrades though.

Best Buy should be carrying it soon as well. They just got in the AT&T variant today.

wirefly friends and family has it for 219.99

It's a link to Wirefly that is technically designated for Friends and Family of Simplexity employees. But the link has been easily accessed by the public for some time now. I bought my last 2 phones from that link, including my Note II that I just ordered this weekend.
Just do a Google search for Wirefly Friends and Family.

Our local best buy said they would price match the wirefly friends and family price. ymmv. radioshack is supposed to have it for 249.99, but our local store doesnt have any stock yet.

Best buy price match

Does best buy price match? I can get the s3 for 50 on a new contract through tmobile through my jobs discount will tmobile. Only problem is its done online and they have to ship the phone and its a mail in rebate. If i print it out and take it to best buy will they price match and I get the phone same day?

I think they do. But it has to be a published price, so I don't think your employee discount will count. They need like a newspaper ad or to be able to pull up a webpage (like Amazon) by themselves and see the cheaper published price.

Do they match the retail price? If so take the picture of Costco's retail price and bring it in and have them sell you the phone for $350 off contract.

This question isn't even in the wrong section, it's on the wrong website.

Costco is selling the s3 for $350 off contract?

No way, just got from Costco on contract because without was like every body else.

Ok heres the thing. Even if they price match or not best buy does not sell the phones at their stores anymore that has to be done online or over the phone. Atleast thats what I was told for my wifes phone which I just got like 2weeks ago on sale for $50 which was a s3 . Maybe just maybe yours might sell it in stores idk. Like I said thats just what I was told. But the bright side is they got shipping for like 5 bucks comes in 3days flat

Yeah that's my problem I'll be without a phone for a week because I have a sprint s3 but ex cut it off. So im selling that paying 400 deposit and getting tmobile

You can buy Verizon, sprint and at&t in store but T-Mobile you have to order online or they can do it for you. That's how it is over here at least.

Yup same here another silly policy from tmobile, maybe they think you would leave them and join other carriers if your at the store. That tells you how sucky and not confident they are.

It's not a policy made by T-Mobile. By federal law, a retail store cannot sell all 4 main carriers (don't ask me why). Therefore it is up to the resaler to choose which 3 they want to sell. For example, Target chose not to sell Sprint.
