Sorry for the shameless plug but thought I'd post this here in case anyone happens to be after a Blue Angel/M2000.

Happy to consider sensible offers if anyone on here is interested.
Thanks.
I saw your ebay auction, but it seems to me (and correct me if I am wrong) that you will only ship within the UK. I am in the US and was wondering if you would be interested in selling it to me. Thanks.
Hi,
Yes, I initially set the auction up to sell to the UK only but I can find out how much the shipping charges would be if you are interested. I believe I also need to pay a customs fee?
How much are you prepared to pay for the device?
Thanks.
PS. I'll only ship to the US upon payment receipt due to the obvious potential for scams (I've already had someone in Nigeria try and buy it!) - no offence intended.
Searched around, and find Importing from UK is about $695, shipping included (Handtec or Clove). While Expansys offers $750, Newegg offers $760. The difference is more than $50
So my focus is on warranty. Can we get US warranty when importing from UK?
Is expansys-us's warranty really US warranty or they also send it back to UK? How about Newegg?
Which one would you choose? Can anyone give better offers?
I'm on ATT and have to use it in China so I need the unlocked version
Decisions, please!
I don't know how you're paying, but with Google Checkout, they charged me over $20 for foreign currency, so it comes out to be closer.
Also amazon has a few 3rd party sellers who sell it for cheaper - and offer warranty.
Even if they offered warranty from UK, it would be expensive to ship it.

Didn't go through the whole process, stopped at checkout page and chose shipping to US and see price at 445 pounds. Thanks for the notice for additional fees.
BTW, will there be 8% tax charged when going through custom?
I believe eXpansys do offer warranty but I have no idea how they are doing their warranty. However, based on my experience, I feel safer getting mine from eXpansys mainly because they have an office based here in US and they are well known for their good customer service (at least for me). So I am more comfortable getting it from them. That's just my opinion though

Just found a better deal from Negri, original price $739, additional coupon $35, so only $704. How about warranty from Negri?
Update, looks like Negri needs people to pay at least $715.5, but this price is still okay.

Shouldn't pay any extra tax or anything.
Found someone saying international version will be available on bestbuy at $529 after verizon release?
That will be a huge steal, but is it possible?
If not, I think I will go by expansys next week after they have new stocks

Considering it's also speculated VZ will have a period of exclusivity and I don't believe Best Buy sells international versions - they only sell you phones that the carriers they support sell, I highly doubt it.
it'll be $649-$699 for off contract price, just like all other brand new high end android device.
I bought mine from amazon for $735
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005ZEF01A/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
They now have it for $643.50 with coupon for a pre-sale price. It's in my basket on holding debating what to do. This is for the Verizon version. I did ask that whether it was the 16 or 32GB since it just says Internal Memory 16/32. I also wanted to know how they would deliver it as it list overnight delivery, which would be a Saturday. However, if you read their fine print on all shipping, it will say, "If you choose Overnight Shipping you are getting a discount price on Second Day Air" and so on.
So, buy it now or wait?
Also, does anyone know how Verizon handles phones that you buy outright? Are you still locked into a 2 year contract? Or, do you pay monthly even if you have an account with them? I always get conflicting answers when I call or go into the stores. Thanks for your help and opinions. I know we all can't wait!

That was for the presales. I got mine from them this weekend for the 704.
Supposedly both expansys and they will send off your phone to the uk for warranty work. Supposedly.

where do you get the $643? Is the verizon unlocked version a world phone? There's no point for an unlocked phone with only cdma/lte
I got mine from Expansys. They will take warranty returns back to ship for you to England for warranty service. That makes it easier than trying to deal with customs your self. (See a lot of warranty discussion in the General Forum, under Expansys USA Now Shipping thread, at (I think):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359169
Also, in the same thread, there are reports that Negri does not offer a warranty. I don't know if true or not.
Remember - buyer beware, and check very carefully! Good luck.
From Negri:
DEFECTIVE ITEMS: A defective item may be returned for repair within 25 days of date of purchase. If an repair is not possible we will offer a refurbished replacement. If this is not available you will be offered a store credit toward a future purchase. If you would prefer a refund (instead of a store credit), you may request a full refund, minus shipping charges. The exchange process typically takes 8-10 days to complete. Every (Non Carrier Branded) device comes with a 1 year warranty from the manufacturer. After 25 days our exchange/return policy has expired, you should contact the manufacturer for repair or for warranty replacement or exchange, if your device qualifies for this. Please contact the manufacturer to determine if the device you hold is covered under their warranty. If you would like to send your device to us to send to the manufacturer you are free to do so. Please request an RMA. This will delay the warranty process by 1-2 weeks and you will be charged shipping to and from the manufacturer. You will need the original invoice from us in order to have your item repaired or exchanged by the manufacturer. Warranty varies by manufacturer, but typically warranties are valid for 1 year from purchase. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST request an RMA in order to return any device.
So, it looks like you can send it to Negri, and they'll just send it to the repair center, but charge for shipping. Lame, compared to expansys. Since you might a well just send it to the repair center yourself.
But expansys has branches in many countries, so they probably can help out more.
Yea I work for verizon, and if you purchased your phone outright then its just a simple equipment change, with no contract extention, althought you would need a micro sim for it to work so you might have to go to a verizon store for one of those. I was considering getting a verizon one but because of the google wallet thing and the brand on the back and the unknown battery life with the LTE radio I think I'd rather not, I already ordered my International Gnex from Expansys with the $20 off voucher, so I got it for $729, not a bad deal if you consider the warranty assistance. The $20 off voucher code is 20offls

Don't forget to use BigCrumbs.com for 4% cash-back when ordering from Expansys-USA, which is essentially another $30 off.
Is it possible? i have a friend that should be int the sates on October and i want him to buy it from the AT&T store, but can he buy it without any contract or a sim card?
if not is there any other way? i don't want to buy it directly and ship it to my country cos the taxes here will make the purchase unjustified (will add more the 125$ not including the shipment).
Yes, you can buy any phone that AT&T sales in stores without a contact.....except the iPhone. Currently the off contract of the Captivate Glide is $500 though from AT&T
If I helped you, please press the Thanks button

Or via amazonwireless.com
(ps. I hit thanks by accident on your message and i don't know how to remove it!)
I bought mine from Amazon Wireless, as phone only (phone upgrade), $ 399, and then unlock with an on-line service ($ 25).
the problem wit amazonwireless for me is that i need to have a US adress, there is a service for that but the charge an arm and a leg.
plus the taxes to import the phone makes it unwise to buy it online. i need to cheack with the customs again, maybe (if buddha will premit) there wont be import taxes on this phone (VAT will probley will be but its low amount).
I live in Europe and went to US in March and a tried to buy this phone in a AT&T Store and it was not possible. Even to buy the phone without contract they require a contract plan. I did buy the phone thru ebay later. I would suggest you the same if you have access to US address.

Do you mind telling us how much you paid without shipping then how much was shipping. Just to give others an idea on what they can get via eBay?

The phone itself has cost $389,99 and international USPS Express shipping was $44,99. This was quite cheap compared to the $600 (+ shipping) on Amazonwireless back then.
Btw. If any German is interested in the taxes I had to pay: It was about 63€ (~19%)
now days the glide cost 400 dollors via amazonwireless and the shiping in the staes is free.
i think i got lucky cos i have a friend that is gona visit is family in the states sooner then expected and he agreed that i will ship this to his family house, and he will bring it to me when he come back. so i can get away from shiping and taxes via customes.
yeah ebay its the only place to buy a phone anymore, altho some pawnshops will cut good deals. seems 300 for a new or refurbished phone on ebay is the going rate & most folks dont mind shipping outa country.
helpslip is there a problem buying from amazonwireless if i ship it in the US?
i can arrange a frined living there to get my package, dont know if he have AT&T service and actualy don't care only want the phone with no contract.
i wouldnt think so altho i have zero 1st hand experience w/ amazonwireless, if its ran the same way as amazon your purchasing from an independent seller sometimes just a dood w/ a garage no different than ebay & ebay now has 30 day buyer protection so they refund price & shipping (& return shipping if needed) if something doesnt arrive or doesnt work etc... ive even been refunded after more than a year for an item that didnt arrive from australia (to usa) altho i keep in contact w/ seller through ebay so they could verify a problem.
damn i sound like a shill for ebay sorry.
now i got confused. i saw that i can buy from amazon wireless an locked phonw with or without a contract and also from amazon.com itself that its seems sells from independet seller (like the market). whoshould i choose? at least i have some time to think about it cos my firned will be in the states in a month from now.
I bought from Amazon Wireless, which is Amazon direct. They will sell you a locked phone without contract.
When I bought it, it used to be wrongly labled as "unlocked" I contacted them and they offered a full refund. Since I'm in the UAE I didn't want that, just an unlock code, to which they said they can't help me with that. So I ended up unlocking from AmericanUnlocker.
I prefer to buy direct, in this case it would be Amazon Wireless, that'll help with returns.
thank incidentflux you made my choice clearer. i will buy it from amazon wireless direct. also the delivery is free and will take 2-3 days to my friend's door.
unfourtuntly it will take a while until i will get it, hope ics will be out by then and if not the inc3ption rom will be a great choise
Glad to help. Yes shipping is free as well. But the smartphone will still be locked to AT&T by the way, which is an inconvenience.
I also ordered the SanDisk 64GB MicroSDXC

Give it a week or two then price will drop if you looking to buy it pay as you go, otherwise ebay is the only option. Price wise based on spec is reasonable
I have ordered mine from amazon.co.uk
I am trying to get one from japan i believe they already have it there now. If i manage to get one from there i will cancel the amazon order
I have been waiting for the LGG4 for a long time, really looking forward to this device
I know you want this phone badly, and rightly so it's truly amazing.
But I would wait, the great deals don't start to surface until a week before release. You won't be able to get the phone any earlier than 28th May so just stay strong! :highfive:

You can buy the HTC 10 unlocked for $549 until October 24 direct from HTC. I thought that was a pretty good deal so ordered mine yesterday. Here's a link: https://www.htc.com/us/go/buy-htc-10/
Ordered mine yesterday too. Carbon Grey. Now if they would just process my order. I don't want to wait.
Edit: shipping confirmation received. Phone will be delivered on Tuesday.
I got this deal I believe, on a US Unlocked when I bought mine. I paid for a shipping upgrade I believe but it wasn't overnight. They did the order processing and shipping faster than I expected if I remember correctly. I was pleased with the speed to process and ship and all that, it was a good purchase for me.
