Now that the Nexus 4 is out, it looks like Google is no longer selling the Galaxy Nexus pogo dock. Does anyone know where I should look without being charged an arm and a leg?

eBay, search the topic and you will find pages of discussions and attempts to find the docks from google and/or Samsung
Yeah haha ^
You will be charged an arm and a leg, though. And Verizon ones tend to be more expensive. The docks originally cost $90 new, and now people can sell theirs and make at least that, auctions on eBay can take it up to $120+ and they only pop up every few days.
Best bet is to pounce on a buy it now as soon as possible, then you'd only have to pay $80 or so. Just make sure it's the Verizon dock if you have the VZW GalNex and vice versa.

I am looking to get one too. I don't want to buy the one of ebay. Anyone willing to part with their GSM pogo dock if they aren't using it? I'll offer $40. Or any tips on where I can get a used one in working condition? Amazon doesn't have any, Play obviously doesn't have them on sale anymore. Found a few with bundles on swappa, but seller wouldn't sell it separately. Ebay as mentioned above is shipping from UK and it comes out to like $90 with shipping.

If you want one be ready to put up $90. I got lucky and found a new one for $85ish shipping from Japan
PM me if anyone is interested in getting a brand new one.
For GSM version only.
Cheers,

And that's where I got mine ^ recommend him highly!
I'm embarrassed at what I paid for mine, and that was a used one on ebay plus I had to modify it for the toro. I needed it though I've been using a dock on my phones every night for the past few years and wasn't about to give that up. Trust me, these things are damn near extinct and the people who have them know that.
MonoPrice has a nice adaptor for the Galaxy Nexus. I can't post links yet (under 10 posts), but it's product ID 9291
I was thinking about making a dock that uses the internals from that part.
I saw a Verizon Pogo dock going for $180 on eBay the other day... Ugh I hate price gougers...

Has anyone received their refurbished lapdock yet? Can you tell it is a refurb? What accessories did it come with (headphones, cords, etc.)?
I want to get one but want to know about what's in the box first.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I received mine. It looks brand new and came with the power supply and a pouch for said power supply. That's it. I don't think the retail version comes with anything else either.
As far as I can tell the only difference is the refurbs come in an AT&T refurb box. I would guess a new one would be in a motor box. But I could be wrong.
My refurb one works great, I love it!!
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I got one, but it had a dead pixel on it. I went to an AT&T store and they let me exchange for another refurb.
Add another "mine looks brand new". Came in an ATT box, with all the plastic wrapped bits in place and the plastic on the screen. Just the dock, power supply, and pouch for power supply.
how much did you guys pay for these refurbished laptop docks?
175. From AT&T's website. Great deal compared to $500 and a tethering plan
Got mine for 140. Got lucky with a coupon
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
175 should have been the original price. cant complain i paid 250 for mine brand new.

No, it was like a 10 or 20% off one but the lapdock was not suppose to work for it. Just a glitch on the website. Only lasted like 3 days. I was just lucky and caught a thread on it in the accessory section.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Yet another one with "looks like brand new", except it came with at&t refurbished box instead of original motorola. power adapter and a pouch for that adapter are the only accessories. Only bad thing about it is, no scrolling on touchpad (I would be fine with side area scroll instead of multi touch) but that's not related to the laptop being refurbished.
$140 is just delectable enough for me to jump on it, anything higher no dice. Hopefully one day it will be that way. I wish the phone was a little bit more popular and their would be an alternate maker to produce a cheaper dock, oh well.
Well I ordered mine today and now it's on the way. I can't complain at $175, and I figure I can just ebay it for at least that if I hate it.
Thanks everyone for your help!

It's great, you won't regret it.
Just chatted with Cust support. I get a 35% discount on accessories. She said that if I placed the order $176, called premier cust service and asked that my discount be applied, I would recieve my discount $61.6 and get the dock ofr 114.4!!! I'm going to have to go in at that price.!!!

I got mine for $143 also with some coupon code. Had a scratch on the top lid, but otherwise it's pretty much perfect. Scratch could've come from the shipping US->EU too, not quite sure. Either way, it's worth that price
Does anyone know where some one in Canada can buy this? I have tired ordering it online from expansys which they say they have in stock but they actually don't.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
bell.ca shows an accessory mhl adaptor but there is not much info on it. it looks like the samsung oem one, but tough to tell. i had called a few stores and they didnt have it and were awaiting stock, but i got lucky and found someone that had sold their gs2 before the adaptor arrived so i bought it that way.
mobilecityonline.com seems to get stock regularly, but their shipping price to canada is around $20, so the item will cost around $60 shipped (similar to bell.ca price i think)
Has anyone been able to locate any Galaxy Nexus accessories in store? I've only found 1 case in 3 colors but I'm looking for the docks. They're available on Bell.ca but I want to pick one up instore.
Hate to bump myself, but I just got an email from Bell saying that my order has been delayed until the third week of January.. unacceptable wait, so I cancelled. Now I'm looking to buy these docks somewhere, anywhere. Online or instore.
everyone, including myself, wants a dock. they are no where to be found.
was your phone bumped back to January or just the Dock?

I was pretty discouraged initially in having to spend $85+ tax for the car dock.. Now I don't care, I just want it.
I'm wanting to pick up the unlocked version of the Galaxy Nexus. I will never give Verizon a penny, and I've read it works on both ATT and TMobile 3g.
I was thinking Amazon, but I don't know how the warranty and things will work. So, for those people with the unlocked version, where did you buy it.

I bought mine from expansys. It came out to be like 585 I think. You should check it out.

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.

As the tittle says, Google Play Store is now officially selling accessories!! Head over and spend your money.
Official desk dock with pogo pins for $54!!!!!!!!!!! Yes!
"Note: This accessory will only work with the HSPA+ version of the Galaxy Nexus (as sold on the Google Play store)."
Hopefully it fits with the extended battery/cover too.

yep, i'm gonna get a cardock as well
$10 shipping? Yikes. (yes I realize it's 2-day, but that's still high, IMO)
So, your $54 dock becomes $70 in a few clicks. Makes sense.
Sucks it won't fit the CDMA version

Glad to see Google is finally starting to offer more accessory support for the GSM Nexus, hopefully they'll add the batteries and covers as well.
expansys 64 total after Illinois tax and free shipping, Play store 69 with Il tax and $10 2-day shipping. I like that Google isn't orphaning the device but I wish they'd give us more options shipping-wise, I'm willing to wait a week or more if I can avoid getting hit with a double digit shipping charge.
has anyone seen the pogo pin version sold by any seller on amazon? I have a bunch of amazon gift cards I want to dump

Because you can't buy hardware through the app, as you need to select a shipping address and the app is only set up for intangible goods. You have to go to the website to purchase hardware items.

Makes perfect logical sense. I figured they filtered it as I'm CDMA and they only have official accessories for GSM. Never thought about shipping info.

Sprint and Verizon carry CDMA version of the Nexus. CDMA/LTE Nexus are thicker than GSM/HSPA+. Accessories are not compatible.
