My purchase experience...What about yours?

So I wanted to create a thread where everyone can write bout there purchase experience, whether good or bad..
I purchased mines from Negri Electronics and could not be happier. I recieved her today the packaging was secure and full of surprises. Enclosed was the unit wrapped in a nice bag, a USA wall plug (to compensate for the UK version), an ANDY Android figurine (nice touch) long with a thnk you card from them. The Item shipped Black Friday a day after Thanksgiving, Only because they worked there tails off on Thanksgiving itself to make sure all there units shipped Friday. For that I thank them. I could not have been happier with my choice!
How was your experience, please share

Can i ax you to get off his nuts?

lollllllll

To answer your question about my purchasing experience, it has been good so far. I placed an order with Handtec last Wednesday. If it wasn't for the volume bug I would have received it by Friday. I should have it Tuesday morning at the soonest.

It's a pet peeve of mines too!

I also ordered "mines" from Negri. It's arriving Wednesday. The experience dealing with them was great so far. Knowing what's in the box (unless I don't get a figure ) is even better! Recommended as well.

The only difficulty was deciding whether or not I should purchase one, since I owned both the N1 and Galaxy S I thought it would be rude not to go for the GNex.
Once I'd decided, it was a matter of popping down the high street during my lunch break to grab one. I was in and out within 5 minutes, so all in all MINES was a rather pleasant experience.

Wait wait wait wait wait wait ... You got a gift bag with your nexus O.O!!
Does every retailer do this or is that just Negri ... omg I want to cancel my Handtec order now and order from those ppl...
On that note: Does anyone know how long it takes Google Checkout to refund your money? (Last time I use that stupid method) .. they took off the money the second I ordered my Nexus, I was under the impression you're not supposed to be charged until your order is shipped out >.>

Ordered Wed from Expansys-USA arrived Friday. Paid for overnight. Quite pleased with the service.

Mixed bag but then I expect no less from Expansys. Phone is here, I'm at work, delivered on time, no issues. I've got a billing issue that I've sent 3 emails in five days, holiday excluded, and no reply.
This fits squarely with my past dealings with Expansys: Product delivered on time as described with crappy customer service.

Got mine from local Phones4U store day after official launch. Went in when it opened to find out they put the sim free price up overnight by £80 to £629 . Didn't buy it.
Phoned head office to complain. They confirmed price increase. I told them about an official phones4u tweet sent earlier in the day that the price would be £549 so they arranged £100 off from local store. Went back and picked it up for £529. Next day, the price went back down to £549.
Bunch of jokers. Only bought from there as didn't want to wait a week for my pre order from clove.

Got mine from Phones4U. It was dreadful from start to finish. To cut a long story short an error in their system for Orange upgrades meant delays. Then delays shipping. It was supposed to come the day after I ordered it but took a week instead; their customer service throughout was dire.
On top of that the "launch" on the 17th was only in one store, and they only told everyone that on the morning of the 17th!
Still, I have it now and love it. Alls well that ends well as they say

On time, as described.. haven't needed customer service yet.. hopefully won't need it.

Ordered through Negri, cancelled it because Expansys assured me Friday delivery was a go.

btw do we get some sort of warrenty ("we" = USA ppl) ?

Through Expansys-USA, yes. You have to send the phone to them and in-turn they send to the UK for repair. Never had to go that route, but I image it's a long process...
Better than nothing though.

Ugh, it's been a huge fiasco, and I still don't have a phone!
Originally, I ordered last Friday (8 days ago) on Expansys USA for $750. On Saturday (seven days ago), I noticed that handtec would ship to the USA from the UK, it would come out to $50 cheaper, and it looked like it would get here first (at the time handtec seemed very proactive and confident they would ship my order ASAP).
On Saturday I sent a cancellation email to expansys, ordered from handtec, and waited. When Monday came, expansys cancelled my order no problem, and handtec needed all sorts of information (my passport + utility bill) to confirm my address, so my order didn't even get fully processed until Tuesday thanks to time zone differences.
Finally, Tuesday rolled around and they announced they were going to stop shipping because of the bug - I emailed them immediately and asked they send it anyway, they gave me the 24-48hrs BS, and eventually gave me Monday. Bullsh*t.
In the end, if I had kept my Expansys order, I probably would have my GN by now, and I wouldn't be hoping a UK company gets stock they claimed they would have a week ago. At least they upgraded to expedited shipping. .

AmazonWireless discounted my Nexus

So, I'm leaving Sprint for Verizon for the Galaxy Nexus. When I woke up yesterday morning to get ready for work, I jumped online to buy it. I tried to find a low price and saw that AmazonWireless was selling it for $199.99 on a new contract. When I got home from work, I was checking the order and checked the description of the phone and it was now $149.99. I felt a little ripped off. I knew that Amazon had no obligation to give me the difference, but I figured what the hell, I'll call them anyway. The guy on the phone, said since I ordered it on the 15th and the price on the 15th is $149.99, that he'll change it for me and he did. If you ordered yours on Amazon for $199.99, I would suggest calling them to see if you can get it for the lower price. I can't guarantee that they will, but it's worth a shot. $50 is $50.

Welcome to the club man. I too have switched from Sprint and the Epic Touch to the Galaxy Nexus on Verizon. The difference in the device and the verizon service is night and day. I'm really glad I did.

Im returning my Rezound to amazon and exchanging for the nexus, the only part that sucks is that its back ordered . Hey housry23 just curious has yours shipped yet ?

dont let that get to you. Amazon does that to all phones that are in high demand. Mine already shipped. They list as backordered but they ship them out as they recieve them even though the website lists them as backordered.
They are already shipping them. As the demand goes down I bet they start listing it as the phone shipping in 24 hours.
I ordered mine yesterday and it shipped today, even though it said backordered the whole time.

What's up bro! Glad to see some familiar names around here. At first I was a little skeptical about switching to Big Red, but once I learned that they have 4G LTE where I live, I was ready to do it as soon as the Nexus dropped.

Just like someone already said, Amazon always says backordered on new devices. I ordered mine on the 15th, but it hasn't shipped yet. The status did change from "not yet shipped" to "shipping soon" though. It might take a couple days for them to send it, but imo it's worth it to save the money. $300 at Big Red or $150 at Amazon? To me it's a no brainer. They also give you free 2 Day shipping, so once it is shipped, you know you'll have it in 2 days. I'm guessing they are going to ship it today or Monday, which would get it here by Tuesday or Wednesday. Getting excited! I went to the Verizon Corporate store yesterday just to play around with it and walked out with an extended battery. They have them for $25 right now, so run over and get you one. The guy there showed me his with the extended battery and there really isn't much difference in size at all. It's a 2100mah made by Samsung.

Also, just to add, the extended battery that's on sale has NFC built in. Not a bad deal for $25.

Sounds good, they charged my account this morning and from my past orders this means its going to ship today ! I'm getting pretty excited cant wait to have it in my hands. So far for the Nexus i have Zagg on its way and am going to be heading to the store to pick up a extended battery here shortly.

added on a line with this phone on via a different cell store for 155$... not bad.

I decided I couldn't wait so I went to best buy and they price matched amazon.com (still gotta pay tax).
So I'm sitting here and waiting for the process to be done.
Also coming from sprint's nexus s and epic. I'm fed up with its slow 3g and spotty 4g.

Alright so just got home from VZW as i was walking in UPS was dropping some boxes off so i signed in and got called about 5 minutes later, asked about the battery and the guys said your lucky we just got out shipment in because we were all out. $26.93 after taxes and as i was walking out i got a email notification saying my packaged has shipped, got home logged it to get a tracking number and for whatever reason amazon wireless is sending me my sim card first and that's what has shipped. Good thing is that the phone now says shipping soon so hopefully they send out today but i doubt it so its looking like tomorrow or Monday for me.

I tried. No such luck. It was already "on the truck" for return when they looked for the returned one..
I settled for stone when it became available last thursday. UPS said "out for delivery" as of this morning.

Just checked ... they are unfortunately showing "sold out online" for both versions :'(

I bought mine for $250 on craigslist from someone who got it from Google I/O, I talked to Motorola and they said all you need for the warranty is the serial number and they registered it to my name for the one year :good:
Don't be afraid to buy one used!

It wouldn't hurt to go in the store and actually have someone check. I called my local best buy and they didn't have any but suggested to try calling 2 other ones near me as it showed they may have had it. So, I called one of the 2 and they told me they didn't have it. However, since that one was right by my work i figured I'd go in and ask anyways. Turns out they did have 1 left so I went ahead and picked it up.
Don't give up people.

Silvet one been showing instock everytimeI checked the last few days. Blackone has been sold out. And is the one i want lol

I was lucky to snag one on lunch at my local Best Buy. Interestingly enough, I prefer the new "stone" color. Pics online made me irritated they changed it, but I think it's very classy.

Guys, both versions are available on Moto and BB websites.
Go for it.
Just placed an order a couple of days ago, I'm still waiting for my black one. :victory:

I've noticed all the BB's I would check out had them locked in the glass cabinet with the other smartwatches, rather than on the actual display. I went to one that had three left one day. Didn't pull the trigger that day. Went a couple of days later to finally get it and they only had one left. Luckily it was Black. The guy that opened of the case didn't just hand it over to me either, he had to escort me to a register and hand it off to a cashier.
Keep being persistent and check around. But know that they do go fast if you don't act on it.

I wish my local Best Buys had one. I hate waiting for shipments. I called about 5 stores and none have stock. I almost settled for a gear live or g watch. If anyone comes across one in L.A. PM me

How to purchase the LG G3 FOR $379.73 off contract with T-Mobile

Based on 6.5% sales taxes.
Unfortunately part of the deal ends today.
This is what I did:
I paid full price for the phone because I am a current customer; $598.80 plus tax.
My total payment in the store was $589.73 after tax because I traded my Nexus 4 for $48.
Next step; called customer service so I could get a credit in to my account of $60, which is the online discount that T-Mobile is offering right now. Tough work but it tuned out fine.
Submitted my claim for the promotional offer in the LG official website where they are giving an $100 Visa prepaid card. Promotion ends today 12/14/2014.
Find out that AT&T was offering $55 for my Nexus 4 trade. Just because of that I will be getting another $50 credited in to my account. T-Mobile courtesy.

I am patient and very cheap lol

You can submit your claim for the $100 prepaid card up to “no later than midnight PST on 1/16/15”. So technically you have until then, because you can always play with the scanner and change dates on the bill.

Haha, me too. I purchased my G3 two days past the battery promotion. Changed the date that time on my receipt to two days prior and 5 weeks later I got my extra battery and charger. :good:

Turns out that I got the phone for $17 cheaper than title said. T-Mobile pays you $50 + the difference on the trade price of the competitor. Good to know!

How are you guys changing the date on the sales receipt from the phone?
I think i bought mine in August or October but I'd really like a hundred bucks back lol

Hope it comes soon!Anyone else importing this to the USA? Hope it works out okay!

You could have saved some money, it's $650 on geekbuying.com. If you pay with paypal, it's $600. I will probably get it too but I'm not paying these early prices, waiting till drops below $600.

Hoping to get mine sooner than geekbuying but who knows. Thanks for the post! Hope lots of people get this so we have some good development!

You can't use that code no more, it has been used too often

Sorry, most of the stores have terminated all but the smallest discounts to protect their profit margins. I snagged up a
pretty big 15% discount, less than 5 minutes later, friend reported it failed when he tried it. I'll post where I got mine after I actually get it, if I'm scammed I'd rather be the only one, it does seem a little too good to be true.
Do note that some resellers are flexible so if they have a live chat option, you can ask for discounts, tell them you barely missed a coupon and politely ask, they should drop the price a little.
I've invested quite a bit of time hunting for a deal. For every site I found, there were mixed reports, some had a smooth ride, others had bad experiences.

Mine just shipped with a DHL tracking number from AliExpress. Can't wait!

Sweet, yours came from the 1st batch that sold out in 58 seconds. I don't have a tracking number yet. You'll be the first owner on xda that I know of
I hope case makers start selling cases now. The one in the package doesn't seem like it it can prevent fall damage.
I accidentally drop my phone with enough force to break the ceramic at least once a year.

That's just the way it is with early adoption and preorders. Consider yourselves lucky, you should have seen the prices some units have sold for on ebay. Or how bad the scalping will get with the iphone x...

That's the strange part. I got a text message from DHL Express with tracking info and all. Followed it all the way to the door. Never knew they did that. I got it from eBay with a mountain of eBay bucks. Seller threw in a case and screen protector. I hope the OEM case is in there. My Mix shattered when we preparing for hurricane Irma and I needed a phone. Was waiting to see the pixel 2 XL but that price point scared me off from the leak.
