NegriElectronics has a deal for this weekend to get the Galaxy Nexus for the lowest price I've seen so far, $685.50! Plus, it's free shipping in the US!
I thought I got a deal by ordering for 704ish from them a while back, but this deal is the lowest ever and is only for this weekend. If you were on the fence, now MIGHT be the time to act for the GSM version.
Coupon Code is: VZSucks
It knocks $45 off the price tag!
Good price and negeri, say what you will about them, are shaping up to be a good reseller.
I'm giving this serious consideration...
I'm really tempted to go through with this. I was at Best Buy yesterday talking to one of the Mobile guys. I'm really starting to think there won't be a GSM version available for retail sale in the US. Someone please talk me out of this! I'll will really hit myself if by the end of this month a GSM version is available in Best Buy less than $550. I wanted the 32GB GSM model but I feel like I've waited too long already.
Should I wait until the ides of December and see what happens or jump in on this Negri deal?

There will NOT be a GSM available from best buy by the end of this month. No way.

1000% agree.
Bought mine 3 weeks ago at $750 and haven't doubted it since.
No way I'm going to sit around and wait unit, what, Feb, March, May, ever for a GSM version.
No thanks.
Buy now enjoy now.
Wait and possibly never enjoy.
Easy decision, IMO.

Okay that's all I need! I went through with the order with free ship option to save as much money as possible. Hope it won't take THAT long.
I've already been alerted by my bank about the authorization. I used Amazon Payments.
If I get this phone will my ensurion insurance still protect it? I have a problem with losing phones. Thanks guys

it will not since the phone will be from another country and not incorporated into their system. even then, if they actually would allow it they wouldn't be able to replace it for the same phone.
Good deal!
So I would essentially be screwed if I lost this phone? I am an outdoors man, and somehow lose them.

They charge tax so don't forget to factor that into the equation based on where you are. I got mine from Negri for $705 but after tax it shot up to $764. I was just thankful I saved $35 from a code.
Negri is the way to go... although I've heard mixed stories about the customer service they give but I'd recommend them. I got my phone super quick.

No tax if you aren't in Nevada or wherever they are selling it from. Mine was flatly $704.50

AT&T just passed a locked GSM Nexus through the FCC, (radio hardware lock), so I doubt it.

Yeah I know I got ripped off. If negeri is selling at $685, they are still making a profit, believe you me. And to think I paid $750...Expansys must have made a TON of profit on the units they pushed out just before Thanksgiving.
Oh well. Money. It comes and goes.
Does this phone come unlocked already!? I went to pre-order my own but it says (Verizon) next to it. I just want to make sure I get the unlock version other than the wack a$$ Verizon one. Please let me know.
Thank you
Looking to get my hands on another Nexus after mine slipped and fell into the ocean last night. Too much liquor I suppose... You guys know anywhere cheaper than here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?ie=UTF8&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&me=A1QPS08K9FKKNF
I ordered mine from here but it was $10 more when I bought it. Fast shipping and what I got was a brand new condition unit with all accessories. Nothing wrong with it whatsoever that I can tell.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Open-Box-Un...Cell_Phones&hash=item20c0b65166#ht_1264wt_905
I don't think you'll find them any cheaper. But if you want it you'd better hurry as there are only 4 left in stock and they sell em fast.
Pay the extra and get from negri or expansys so you have warranty. If you buy from Amazon or newegg you'll only have the return or maybe just exchange period as your warranty.

If you live in the US, you'll currently have zero warranty on the Galaxy Nexus, regardless of where you buy it.

OK, I exaggerated. You get 15 days of warranty where you can exchange the phone. After that, you're left with a likely UK phone in the US trying to get support from Samsung. Ain't happening.

Still try again. Some of us ordered from expansys and negri for a reason. We might have to wait but we have warranty. Cheaper is not always better in this case. Thats why coreyl is laying down awesome customer service in the expansys thread.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Also because of expansys's exceptional customer service i am going to order my car dock from them. They goofed on some orders and coreyl went above and beyond making up for it. Ordering a couple accessories at a premium is the only other way to thank them.

Yeah I'm probably just gonna buy it from Negri again. They were top notch first time around. Just need to find a decent coupon now and I'll be good to go.

Nope Verizon CDMA handset only. The GSM version would be required for elsewhere

Could you not just buy off contract from Verizon (yeah, $649.99 ) but still have the 1 year warranty?

Nexus S washed by my wife. Battery is dead, phone works but wifi and bluetooth are not functioning. Was trying to get Galaxy Nexus on google play to ship to friend in US and then ship to Canada. But just found out it is banned by a fashion fruit company. The carriers are selling it for 499+ 13% tax up there, any place I can get it for a reasonable price?
xda marketplace ....few people r selling used..but like new 10/10 condition with accessories.... check it out....

Try Ebay, Amazon, Online.
Your local craigslist. The black Market... right next to the guy that sells kidneys
eBay will be the next best bet...

If you can wait a week, they'll be back up on Play Store w JB

hello Guys, does anyone know where to buy a Brand New Galaxy Nexus? I cant use Play store as I dont have a US issued credit card. so i am looking for a good online retailer with a good price comparable to Play store. Amazon is having it for 440$ that's 90$ more :s

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.

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!
I'm ordering a Tmo Branded Note 2 tomorrow & I've found it from Expansy's USA for $599, no tax, free shipping. Has anyone ever ordered from Expansy's that could share any positive experience? Through Tmo its $700 after tax & shipping so this is a considerable savings, and I do like my money, lol. I know that Expansy's is a pretty big name company, as I've heard of them in the past on tech sites, but I just figured I'd bounce the idea off of some of you guys before I fork over my hard earned cash. Thanks to anyone who can offer their advice!
All I saw on there was unlocked gn2's going for 679. Where did you find that deal?
