I would try negri or expansys. You will have warranty through them. You will NOT have warranty with newegg or amazon. And I also suggest waiting till February and see if the 32GB comes out. 16gb version price will probably go down. You might find a good deal on a slightly used one from somebody unloading to get a 32GB nexus aaaaand, it gsm version might officially be released in the USA and then it will be safer to buy through newegg or amazon. Anyways, buying through newegg or amazon right will only only allow the exchange/return period as your warranty. Not good if you ask me.
My grandma beat me down and took my nexus. Sent from a jitterbug with beats by dre.
All GSM phones come unlocked.
Newegg, Negri, Expansys are all good choices. Can't really go wrong with either three.
I personally bought mines from Negri (look for coupons if any exist and you can get a good % off)
Keep in mind that the white GN and GSM 32GB GN is coming out at the end of February (or so) if you're interested in that.
Pretty much what rbiter said.
personally i recommend negri electronics. they're one of the best places to get it. also currently the cheapest. and they honor the years warranty from samsung at no extra cost. they also include a US adapter.
i bought mine from them.
also, keep in mind that the 32GB version is coming in a little over a month, so if you need more than 16, you might want to wait.

oh, and it works great with t-mobile in florida.

Adapter? I ordered mines and didn't come with an adapter. Worked in the wall just fine. I had a yakjuxw build. You might of gotten the UK version so it needed a US adapter, that's probably it.
But regardless, Negri has great customer support + fast shipping. Would buy again, take a look at them. Definitely the cheapest and google around for a coupon (as I mentioned before.. you might save some more!)
I purchased mine from Negri. Had a problem with the first unit, would not recognize my SIM card. Had to pay for a second unit to be shipped while I sent the first one back. Sent the original back in the same box the next day, never even opened the headset or charger. They told me would only take 10 to 12 days for them to issue the credit on the device. They received it on December 19th still no credit and they are not responding to my emails. Now I have to dispute through my c/c company. As far the second part of the question, my GNex works great on TMOUSA! I have not had any issues with the phone working on their system and the speeds are pretty good, not LTE good but still good. I'm getting over 7Mbps down and upper 1's up, I'm outside Philadelphia.

Have you tried contacting them via Twitter? they usually have great customer support. I'm not sure what's up but I'm sure they'll fix you right up.
https://twitter.com/#!/negrielectronic
yeah i got some time... i was thinking prices will go down closer to the end of the month because of the release of the 32 gb version so im hoping to get a 16gb a little cheaper... honestly, its kinda tough to find a good deal on this phone... if n e one has coupon codes let me know! lol thanks for ur help guys
I'm sure you'll have a lot of people recommend Negri here and I can vouch for them. They offer competitive pricing as well great discounts.
I purchased mine during the holidays with free shipping and received mine within a few days.

You could also give them a call,
Toll Free: (888) 358-6358 x 0
(888) 358-6358 x 4 (Accountant Office)
Most likely closed today but tomorrow should be fine. Also seems that their Twitter customer support is still active today, so that might be your best bet, seem to be very friendly and helpful.
im still debating waiting to see if prices will go down a little more....
just bought from expansys... $649.99 with promo code for 20 off

i'm about to hit the checkout button on expansys-usa. i just don't see a gsm version officially hitting the states until probably february and it'll probably be only 16gb version. what's a tech addict supposed to do?
Do what I did and click Check out.
Give in. I did. We can sell the 16 when the 32 or the SGS3 hits. I was tired of waiting and you only live once. Enjoy!
Just got mine from there and its bad ass my friend. Sorry I can't help you here.

I was in the same boat. I had the order screen up, staring at the pay button. Finally I just effin pressed Pay now. I sold my GS2 and paid a good chunk more for this phone. It arrived today. It seriously is the most amazing phone I've ever used. I have an iPhone 4 now for work and a GS2 before it for personal. The combo of ICS and this beautiful device just make for an awesome out of box experience. If you really want it, if you keep looking up stuff about it and thinking about it...buy it. You won't regret it.
it doesn't help i've already bought a mhl adapter, 6" rt angle to rt angle 3.5mm cable, screen protector, tpu case for it and an otg cable.
no GSM until February ? Why ffeb? There is not an official release date for the GSM. No one knows if come Monday Google will announce a date.
Youre gonna buy it now for $750 and watch next week its for sale for $550 from Google
Do it.
My GNEX arrived this morning and it's easily the best tech purchase I've made in a long time.

well, canada is unofficially dec. 7. and verizon is unofficially dec. 8. i'm sure verizon has at least a 60 day exclusive on this. i just don't see the u.s. getting any love any sooner because google has failed to give us any details on an unlocked usa version.

I would say your best bet is to at least wait for the release in Canada and then import it from Canada. You'll probably get a better deal that way. The official release date in Canada is Dec.8 and that's just a matter of less than two weeks so I would say wait until then and see if there is any more news on the GSM version in USA, and if not, import it from Canada for a smaller price
EDIT: Actually, either way the unlocked Galaxy Nexus from Bell is $649 without tax so with taxes and duty fees etc. its probably going to amount to the same price. Lol, I guess that was no help after all

Ya importing from the UK is cheaper and you can get it now.
I wish I could talk you out of it.. but after using the device for a few hours, I just can't.
btw, where did you get your OTG adapter? I'm looking for one at a decent price.. hoping to avoid ebay, if possible..

Ok, I'll play devil's advocate for this thread. I happen to be one that really wants this phone as well, however I am going to wait just a little while longer for any rumors that it will be available 'legitimately' in the US for GSM. A few thoughts Im having:
- Warranty. If I were to buy from Negri, Handtec etc, while they most likely would assist in getting my device fixed, it would still take probably 2-6 weeks and 9 months down the road they may not be as helpful to expedite it. Also, they may give you a loaner phone, otherwise you would have to provide that while you're phone is in the shop.
- I have a feeling the US based GSM phones will be $599 for 16gb. While its only $100 less than buying it right now, I figure its worth the small wait.
- While I believe everyone's opinion over this phone, I also wanted to at least see a Verizon version of the device at a Best Buy just to make sure.
I have gone through a lot of android devices lately and hoping to find the right fit for me. Assuming the Nexus is, I hope to own it for at least 18 months. For others, feel free to refute me and maybe I'll be suckered into buying now as well
I'm one of the unlucky Handtec people still waiting on my pre-order and I would still hit the checkout button even with the foreknowledge of this. It's one of the few phones out there where the hardware and software are working together rather than the multitude of phones that are indeed hardware powerhouses but have the OS slapped on seemingly as an afterthought.

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.

+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.

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?
Mobile.dailysteals.com is selling the Samsung galaxy nexus for 559.99 + 4.99 shipping for only today, I'm thinking about picking one up as this is the best price we will probably see in months.

Just took the plunge and ordered one from DS - I hope I don't regret it. Paid via PP, so if there's an issue - I can hopefully get my money back fairly easily.
This is the lowest price I've seen on it, and I've been watching Amazon - lowest there is $654.99 (includes shipping).
Fingers crossed that all goes well with this transaction...
Ordered one as well. Wonder what build it will come with.
They are a very legitimate website, I know people who've ordered form them they usually have some good deals

Condition: New Packaging: Retail Warranty: 1 Year International Brand: Samsung Model: Galaxy Nexus i9250. It says this under the info
Anybody have any experience with this site? Is it a legit seller? Why is it $100 cheaper than everybody else? I'm skeptic because i fear there is a catch. Too good of a deal.
International warranty does not apply to usa. Check amazon reviews of many samsung international phones to verify.
My grandma beat me down and took my nexus. Sent from a jitterbug with beats by dre.
I had a unlocked htc touch pro 2 and the international warranty worked for me when i dropped my phone in coffee. They charged me a $28 international warranty fee + shipping to chicago.
I don't see why samsung would be any different.
I read on another forum that the website is known to sell black market items and one thing that they are know for is their long shipping time.. I think they are legit but it might take time for us to receive the phone..
ive purchased from them before they usually take a week to ship out the items and they always use ups and give you a tracking number if that helps
This was pretty much the price point I've been waiting for. Ordered.
Let's just hope it doesn't need any warranty service.

So, if i buy this today and something better comes out at CES, how long do i have to cancel my order? I'm pretty sure it's not going to ship before CES.
I am almost sure something better will come out at CES from either HTC or Samsung but for me its not the octo core, 148 megapixel camera.. Its that this is a NEXUS phone! FTW!

You've got 5 minutes to buy from Daily Steals (above post)
I bought from Negri Electronics and it's been great.
In case you missed the dailysteal, try looking for on either eBay or Amazon. Try auction or whatever works for you. I won one auction for $585.05, so you should aim for that maximum amount. Or based on my calculation, you could wait another month or two and the price will go down to around $500. Good luck !
Got mine from Germany, Coated me about $538 with 2 cases and a screen protector.
If your in the states i order mines from Amazon.. choose One day Shipping.. got it the next. You could get free two day shipping also.. Its only $594
Click this link. All my friends bought theirs from these guys
If I had one bit of advice it'd be to discourage from buying on eBay or craigslist (or similar) if you at all care about warranty. I know it sucks and you'll hopefully never have to do it, but ordering from an importer will give you some peace of mind knowing you could send it in if you needed to. Importers have it for under $600 nowadays. Depends how much that's worth to you.

A better deal than dailysteals and that deal expired I believe. If you ordered a Galaxy Nexus from Newegg less than a week ago, you can try talking to customer service and see if they will drop the price to match with the coupon. In the past, they've done price matches if they changed the price within a week or so of your purchase.
Awesome deal.
Too bad it doesn't work on the white.
I hope this stays through the weekend
It's awesome, i have been waiting for such a deal somewhere
thank you so much.
That's not bad. I bought mine from a guy who had his brand new on ebay for 630! But he was local here in san diego and no one was bidding on it so i messaged him and told him id give him $500 cash. I got it

From the i9100 I ordered from them, they put the business card of their warranty company in there. When I bought the Nexus this past week, I ordered from Amazon and got square trade instead. I did not have a good experience with NewEgg on the i9100 purchase.

When some of you receive your phones from newegg can you please update this post with your results of the phone, condtlition, etc? I'm looking to possibly get one to try out on prepaid plans. Thanks in advance.

Newegg is very reputable when it comes to good packaging in a well manner. The promo code is LIMITED and will not always be there. I would say just buy it, if you have a problem with it.. you can contact their customer support which is excellent.

Oh I know about new egg. I use them exclusively for my computer business. I just read the reviews where they were opened and had been turned on before. That's all.

Well considering 98%+ of the feedback are generally positive. I wouldn't worry too much about it. As long as there are no physical damage on the phone and the seal is on the screen, it doesn't matter.. just do a factory reset. That's just my own opinion but for some people this can be the deal breaker because a welcome screen wasn't displayed
Do not buy from newegg. I bought mine from them in dec. with extended warranty. Phone broke in feb. The phone was covered by neweggs 90 day warranty so i had to send it to brainstorm co. for repair.Brainstorm is where newegg gets their phones from. Called brianstorm 2 weeks after i sent the phone they told me it would be about 2 more weeks. Called newegg to see what they could do for me, they told me there was nothhing they could do because they dont have control of another company. So today i called brainstorm 25 days since i sent the phone to them, they had no clue when phone would be ready I asked to speak with manager was told there was none. Called newegg again they told me i should tell brainstorm to send me my phone back without repair so i could send it to extended warranty co for repair. What the heck is that! Anyway sorry for the rant but i will never buy from newegg again. Buy from Amazon.

Really? lol. You're kidding about NOT buying from Newegg because of this? Newegg is a excellent company when it comes to buying from their website and they're recognized for their fast shipping and great customer service.
Buying a phone from Amazon will bring you in the same situation. The best way to get a Galaxy Nexus (GSM) is to get it through Negri or Expansys.
Nice first post... and you never mentioned how your phone "broke"

From the i9100 I ordered from them, they put the business card of their warranty company in there. When I bought the Nexus this past week, I ordered from Amazon and got square trade instead. I did not have a good experience with NewEgg on the i9100 purchase.

What did you send square trade to prove the phone is new? I want their warranty but wonder how it will work.
