I hope there are members from the U.S. browsing the One X forum, and even if not I would like to hear an advice from other people who purchased an unlocked phone in the U.S.
So title says it.. Does anyone know about a store that sells an unlocked One X?
** In New-York City, Orlando or Washington D.C.
I buy all my phones from Expansys USA.
International, carrier branded, or otherwise.
I am in New York and I bought from Handtec.

They overnight ship and it was at my door the next morning. Also cheaper then most places.
Is £484.79 == $767 USD? Ouch!
It's $669 at Expansys.

We don't pay VAT if being shipped to the USA.
So total with overnight shipping to NY was 419 pounds which equals $664.
And that's $664 with overnight shipping to the USA. Have not found it cheaper anywhere else.
Gotcha, thanks for the clarification.

Hi everyone,
Whats the cheapest price for the Artemis? I've seen it for $699 as a pre-order. Is this the best U.S. price?
Thanks,

You can purchase it online at www.smart-mobile-gadgets.com. That's where I got mine. Mad Monkey Boy from Howard Forums has them, as well, I believe.
Last I checked on that site, it is $609 today.

PhoneSource is quoting US$599. (in stock) http://www.phonesource-usa.com/
How much do they charge for shipping generally at smartmobilegadgets. I feel cheesed that I bought mine for $770 CAD
I originally purchased through SMG when the price was at $639. With 2-day shipping, the finally tally was $670.
When mine was ready to ship, his price went down to $619. This was on a Friday; so instead of refunding me $20, he upgraded my shipping to overnight with Saturday delivery.
Exact shipping costs I can't recall, but he was very fair to work with. And his communication was great.
currently available on singapore's yahoo! auctions at sgd1250 which is around usd799
would everyone put an expected price for the gsm unlocked desire in US dollars???
just thoughts..
It's all over the web ready for pre-order already. Just go to the usual suspects and check...

Those price include the VAT (VAT are kindda taxes and they only apply for European countries) judging from your flag, you're not in Europe, so if you happen to order, the VAT value will be deducted from the over-all price you mentioned
Expansys UAE is selling it for 575$ which is amazing

Last time I checked...around $530 from Handtec
I will wait for black market version, the shop guy pretends he will get it within 2 weeks
As for the price if he's selling the N1 for 750$ right now I think the Desire will cost 650$
BTW ok it costs much less from Clove but you have to add 20% Lebanese customs
Brother works at P4U (redemption for his sins...), been in today, they will be selling the Desire "Sim Free" so unbranded at £379.95. Just make sure you get the GSM one though, as they are also pricing the branded units the same price if you're buying outright. They won't be in though for another week (if HTC's release dates have been held back)
Just thought I'd let you all know seens places like Expansys and Play are charging what... £420+??
Also, Carphone Warehouse are £420 Sim Free... And they do have them in stock.

Actually it is £399.99 + £10 topup = £410 when you are paying by credit card
and it is £399.99 + £20 topup = £420 when paying by cash.
£348.99

I e-mailed MPD about this and they said that it comes sim-locked to T-mobile, so you need to add at least another £15 to get it unlocked.
Do I have to pay taxes when I order a phone from Europe to the United States (in U.S) ?
Because I found the least expensive to buy at Clove! 694$
na, i dont think u have to pay taxes. i was looking at the same option. i am currently in UK and will be coming to USA in a few weeks and Im thinking of buying it from one of these companies and getting it shipped to USA. no taxes.
No taxes import duties or VAT. You may pay a foreign transaction fee if using a credit card. That's about it.
I just got my shipping notification from clove. Nothing additional was charged from the purchase price.

Do you think maybe we should wait until it officially comes to the U.S. in a few days and it will be cheaper?

the gsm version will not be coming out in the US anytime soon, only the LTE will. expect at least 60 days before you see an official US GSM version
Hey guys, I really want to be able to get the international version of the One X (quad core) but I don't know where to get it or how much it will cost :/ or can I just not preorder it? That I'm okay with haha
You can order from expansys, it has worldwide delivery :
http://www.expansys.com/delivery/
or http://clove.co.uk
Others may find you better deals
Wow! From clove I could get it for under 700$?!?!
Which is more reliable on-time delivery ?
Could have medialink to be perfect.
It's a matter of tax, don't know how they work.
I had some when I tried to order on it but am in Europe so...
Edit :
about delivery time expansys claims 3-4 days, probably the same for clove
Hmm.. How would I be able to find the tax amount you think? During order process?
Yeah i did like I was going to buy one, didn't need registration to see that if I remember well. When you choose delivery location it should tell you the price of tax and shipping
When I go to place the order it seems like 675$

I am also from canada and i ordered from www.handtec.co.uk , anywhere you pre order outside of canada you will have to pay taxes and duty fee's to the delivery guy when it gets to your door, for the one x it will probably be around 80-100$ on top of what your gonna pay from the retailer. From past experience make sure they don't ship via UPS as they are horrible and charge handling fee's and stuff.

So you think about 100$ meaning around 800$ for the phone? sadly thats what i expected but was hoping itd be less haha XD
That 100 on top is a custom fee on Canada, or anywhere ?

Fedex also charges handling fees. I have ordered from handtec before, and fedex delivers it around 2 days. Really quick service.
Handec declares the amount you paid for the device. So if for example you paid $700 for the device, you will pay the fedex guy upon delivery 12% tax (for BC) plus their handling fee.

Shoot 12% is a lot on 700$... :/ why can't they just sell the One X in canada?!?!?! or in the states even.... do you think it'd be cheaper if i got some sort of contact in UK to send one to me??
Fedex aways charge fees.
I dont get that handling fees. Its exclusive in Canada ?
Its a country import rule ?
If I ship one to USA, I will pay either ?

Well handling fee i assume is a flat sum however if i could somehow not have that 12% tax...
I may have to go for the sgs3 just for availability
Rogres will be getting the One X but they have the S4 LTE version which is just as good
