Ok so I have a DInc (waits for laughing to stop) and am thinking about upgrading. I want the GN real bad but im kind of a HTC guy. anyway Amazon.com has the GN listed for $99 right now and I was wondering if anyone knows if Verizon will match the price? Or if Best Buy will? Also has anyone bought a phone from Amazon before? whats the experience like? If I cant get the price matched do you think I should just get it from Amazon?
99 is for new customers I believe, not upgrades.

Yesterday I went into my local VZW store to look at picking up the Galaxy Nexus. The best price that they could offer me was $249. I knew that I could get it from amazon for $20 less, but today Amazon dropped the price by another $30, so now it's $199.
Amazon Galaxy Nexus
Does anyone know of a better price to get this phone?
I thought it was always $150 at Amazon
It'll be 250 at sprint.
But I'm wait till best buy gets it. $50 ftw

so im looking to sell my extra nexus CDMA it is in almost perfect condition accept that best buy ruined the volume down button when they put on the a zagg screen protector
so im looking for ideas on how much i could get for it.
replacement part is only ten bucks, just dont feel like doing it my self
Well you'll get WAY more than $10 back in return for just fixing the issue yourself before selling it. Most people won't buy it broken, even if it is just a $10 fix.

GSM model has a much higher resale value. The Verizon ones have been in the mid $400's for a while.

Sorry for the OT, but 500 for a basically new GSM GN? Is that a good deal or normal? Because that seems cheaper than anyone is selling on the internet. (retail, I mean. I don't know anything about 'used')

You can find them retail around $600 shipped. I got mine for $565 with a coupon. So used in the low $500 range isn't crazy for GSM.
Hi all,
has anybody seen the GN on offer in the UK - sim free?
Broke my HTC and have seen their latest flagship phone has issues, so would rather switch to the Nexus
Thanks in advance
Got mine here a month ago, dont think theres anywhere cheaper.
Mine was a euro version so no uk usb charger but i wasnt bothered,

Well worth it.

I got mine off amazon back in Jan, was easiest/cheapest way to get a sim free phone that I could find here at the time. But it would appear that it's not offered directly through Amazon - just resellers now there. So depending if that's your cup of tea or not, still have that route.
Not sure which carriers offer it still in store - but I believe if you bought outright off Vodafone, they'll give you the unlock code immediately (up to a 7 day wait maybe though?).
O2 policy was a year, and I think 3 might've been three months.
Pretty sure its not stocked in most stores in the uk now,
I got mine from the reseller Top T through amazon and they were very good, dispatched and delivered within 3 days. Free delivery also.
Thanks folks.....
I'm gutted. I almost bought the white one on ebay the other day, but opted for the HTC One X (this was before I read the bad reviews) and the bugger ripped me off with my cash.
So waiting for Paypal to get my refund sorted.
The white one on ebay was new and only went for £227
Would you recommend it?
Only because I could upgrade early with Orange for about £300 and get the S3?
I'm just not keen at all on that touchwiz poo,lol
That sucks, i like the onex but i have heard some bad things about it.
Just a personal thing but i'd never buy a phone from ebay anyways.
Grab the Gnex from amazon for £316 and you'll be happy
Edit: SGS3 is a beast, i've played with one and the touchwiz isnt all that bad. Plus the custom roms will be coming soon.
Down to personal preference really, i cam from iphone so anythings better!
Yeah, I've heard it's good,lol....
That's why I'm a bit undecided
Argggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Decisions, decisions!
I would go for the nexus, buy it outright then you're not going into another long contract, if you dont get on with it down the line you still have an upgrade to use and you can sell your nexus.
That's what I was thinking....
They're all going to start competing with quad cores now and in a few months the SG3 will be bottom of the list....
Nexus it is....
Thanks for your help!
Hey All!
I just checked today and I see that Amazon and Best Buy are both selling the Optimus G for $49.99 on new contracts AND ON UPGRADES!
I have been waiting for this price on upgrades for awhile now... just wish I could get free activation too!
I need a phone so bad and I keep holding out for the HTC One but I may pull the trigger on this deal because I'm desperate and hate the phone I'm using now.
That HTC delay is killing me.

Got mine yesterday. 49.99 plus I signed up for the $50 gift card for a 2 year contract extension that they said they give to anyone that mentions it. They didn't even check or look it up, just had to mention it. I was holding out for the Note2 to come down in price but after some research on the LG I went for it. So far it is an awesome phone and for a total of $3.84 in taxes and sprints $35 activation I think it was a good deal. Anyone want a rooted Evo 3d with Android 4.2.2 pacman rom? :laugh:

Did you go through best buy then? Darn! I didn't know they were still doing a $50 gift card! I didn't see that on their site anywhere... I purchased through Amazon...
I wonder if there is anyway to get them to match it....

It was Best Buy. Apparently all you'd have to do is mention the $50 and they scan a gift card from behind the register. I asked if he needed to see anything or look up my email and he said no. When I signed up it said in the ad that the coupon lasted all year.
When I got mine it was on sale for 99.00 they gave me a50 gift card and I got the free LG Bluetooth headset, value of 70$. :screwy:

It sucks because I tried to get my upgrade today, a week early, just to get this phone from Best Buy. Tomorrow it goes off sale at Best Buy, and I'm not sure how long it will be $50 on Amazon. If anyone has ordered a phone from Amazon, how is there warranty/protection service with phones. Only reason why I want to get this phone from Best Buy is due to the protection plan.

Best Buy will price match, so if it is still on sale with Amazon when your upgrade is up then just show them Amazon and they will price match.
Hello,
