There were a number of topics on this but they all have been pushed far down.
So what is the lowest price at the moment? And from whom?
Here in the Netherlands, you can get one for €470 total, by using a 0-minute 12months subscription from KPN. That's a one-time €320 purchase and 12 months of €12.50.
Not bad eh?
But you probably don't live here anyway...

Just been told by an HTC dealer in London they are about to increase to £549 sim free due to the dollar. I paid £529 last week.

Nop... I'm looking for sim free and those that can delivered to the US.
Paid 505 pounds including shipping for mine. Getting it tomorrow
Paid £450 for mine.. then again I managed to get it at cost price due to 'connections' (no not dodgy)
But the cheapest OFFICIAL place is via play.com if you use a 5% off code = £475 delivered
£120 + 12 months £30 contract, minus £40 quidco = £440
Needed a new contract anyway, so pretty good timing.
I'm in the UK and got it sim free for £506 (about 605 euros) incl del from www.insight.com/uk
Got mine from X1838 on Ebay and it came to $650 shipped to the USA when I used the live.com cashback. And it arrived really fast, ordered on thursday, received monday morning.
If you wait a little bit I bet using the same kind of deal i'm sureyou can get it for $600 shipped. Not too shabby, eh?
I got it for $470 after 25% live.com cashback and 10% paypal coupon.
There is a seller on ebay who is putting them up for 722.45, which seems to be the cheapest of all vendors.
Only £474.99 Delivered (Sim Free)
http://www.laughingdeals.com/all-de...cked-mobile-phone-pound-549.99-delivered.html
Play.com have changed the price of this handset a few times - it was £549, then £499, then went back up to £519 before coming down again.
£474.99 is the price you pay after the RAC discount voucher.
Got it for €545 sim-free (italian rom) on nanolandia.net
That would be £455 or $686.

well that was easy, did your cashback showed up in your MS account right away or after some time?
I got my HD for 475 pounds including tax and delivery. If that is what we are talking about.

i ask my self the same question,
what are the steps to do the live.com thing... i do have the 10% paypal thing so i guess it should be used on this
whats the live.com procedure ?
edit: well just went to live.com then it took me to ebay and yeah its all clearly stated in the t&c once you click on the image for microsoft cashbacks
475 quid. If it is unlocked and you aren't using some shady source or connected that's about what it is worth.
423 pounds from Handtec - no VAT seeing I live in Australia
I was just about to buy the Dimond2 from Expansys UK last night. Yesterdays price was £384 but today its gone up to £410....now whats all that about, didnt think they were open or operated on sundays?!?
Guys where would be the best place to buy a Sim Free TD2 in the Uk? without having to get a contract, even though that might be the cheaper option really dont want another contract.
I know devicewire were giving away a free car kit but not anymore :-(
http://www.clove.co.uk/
I ordered mine from New York, received it in two business days & paid a total of 366.00 EUR. Not sure if the price went up though?
thanks mate.....devicewire are currently doing free delivery and at £395 seems to be the cheapest!
unless someone knows of anything better?!?
mobilephonesdirect have them for £372.99 + about £4 p&p but not getting stock till 7th April
or Insight have them for £379.549 + about £10 p&p
They're the best I've seen looking around.

Do you mean £366.00 Pounds? I got mine from there for £357. But since we live in the US we don't pay the VAT taxes.
Clove has it for £393.30 inc VAT.
inkino.com.uk
Expansys don't have them in stock. Just cancelled the order with them.
Cheapest
http://handtec.co.uk/product.php/1868/htc-touch-diamond-2--diamond2-
I've got one for sale in the Marketplace and would be willing to go less than my original asking price there in case anyone is interested.
Thanks.
Play.com
Go to play.com the phone costs £399.00
Then go to www.topcashback.co.uk, register on the website and then search play.com. It's a website that provides cashback on internet purchases from major retailers and its all legit.
Purchase the phone from play.com through topcashback and you get 3.5% cash back on mobile phone purchases and the cost works out at £385 plus free delivery. The cash back is payble in about 2 months. That's how I got mine.
Btw topcashback is a great website I use it for all my internet purchases and to date I've got about £60 in cash back. Oh and no I don't work for them lol.
bro www.handtec.co.uk it's secure shop? anyone have buyed from their ?
Got mine for £ 316.61 ex VAT from Amazon.co.uk free delivery but I didn't have to pay VAT as I'm in the Channel Islands, including VAT it was £ 364.10 with free delivery still one of the cheaper options. Shame they are now charging closer to £ 400 inc VAT. It went up £ 28 since I bought mine last week.
Got mine (Sim Free) from www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk
T-Mobile Combi 25 12 month contract + £121.99 = £421.99 over 12 months including 150 minutes & 150 texts each month.
hey guys,
I'm from canada, where the nexus 1 has not been released, so I found a person who's selling a 1 week old nexus one for 625 dollars. Is it a bargain or what?
Anything less that the £420 i paid in total for mine i'd consider a bargain
£420 = $636 USD
$655 Canadian

Is that cheaper shipped than you can get it retail? Not sure what sort of duty you pay having it shipped into Canada.
lol, it got sold missed it
Order it yourself using this:
http://www.demailbox.com/
It'll cost you their fee (probably about $10), whatever shipping method you choose to canada and canadian tax.
You won't pay US tax, nor US shipping since its free. So it'll be $528 + $10 + shipping + tax
Which is only $10 more than it would cost you if google did ship to canada!
There are loads of other 'virtual US' mailbox services you can use. Just be carefull to choose one in a state that doesnt have US sales tax, or you'll pay US tax AND canadian tax.
Until now this is the best buy it now offer i found on ebay....it is a lot cheaper than the price sold in UK.....also looking at the prices i think if the supply is enough the price of Nexus S will drop quite quickly.
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Google-Nexu...ell_Phones&hash=item19c1bda4d0#ht_2351wt_1139
Auctions are slightly cheaper.
$631 + $40 shipping.
$612 + $75.95 shipping.

Because "Best" Buy has put an embargo on exports to Europe - "known freight forwarders" included. This idiotic policy leads to black market prices here.
Distribution FAIL, Google!

Shipping where? Next door or overseas? There might be a tiny difference.
What would be a decent markup, excluding shipping? There's little point in selling it on for a meagre $10 profit. As a buyer, I don't think I'd pay more than $50 extra, which gives $579 + shipping. What are the fees on that?

The problem is: There is no fair price because of those fees and taxes. When I get the phone for $670 (shipment incl.) on eBay, I have to pay another 19% VAT for importing the phone to Europe.
So here we are:
$529 at "Best" Buy
$700 using a "known freight forwarder" (forbidden by "Best" Buy)
$800 via eBay.
That's what I call "black market prices".

But the $529 is without taxes. Add your 19% VAT and it's $630. If you wait until it's being sold locally, the local store price would be $630 or more. Whatever you pay on top of that is for the privilege of getting the phone before it's officially for sale.
Have you seen the official UK prices?

I was thinking overseas.
eBay
Here's an example of a final value fee calculation for an auction-style listing:
You sell an item for $100.00.
Your final value fee is 9% of the final sale price, which is $9.00.
The maximum final value fee for auction-style listings is $50. For example, if you sell an item for $1,000, you’ll pay only $50, even though 9% of $1,000 is $90.
PayPal
There is a fee to send money as a personal payment using a debit card or credit card. The fee in the U.S. is 2.9% plus $0.30 USD of the amount you send. For example, if you send $100.00 USD by credit card, the fee would be $3.20 USD ($2.90 + $0.30). For personal payments, the sender can pay the fee or pass it on to the recipient. If the recipient doesn't want to pay the fee, they can choose not to accept the payment.
When you sell through ebay the seller takes on this cost which is about $19.20.
So my $579 phone would actually cost $50 just in eBay fees?

Yep, plus shipping. So that's $629.00 plus. The seller only makes around $30.00 bucks off this deal because of the $19.20 PayPal fee unless they pass the cost on to you. If that because BestBuy charges tax (Or maybe not) 6.5% here on top of the $529.
That's the cheapest I've seen one go for on eBay actually: http://cgi.ebay.com/Google-Nexus-S-...0711263301?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item33636a9c45

I wonder what the magic price point is, where the profit equals the fees, so that the seller receives exactly $529. Now, where's that durned spreadsheet ...

$529(phone price)+$50(eBay fee)+$19.20(PayPal fee)+$38 to $79(International shipping varies)= $628.20 to $668.20 now add taxes to that.
Lets say $650 shipped is a great deal and that's with no money being made.*
Hi bros,
Like all of you I was really interested in buying unlocked Gnote from Uk, USA, or any credible place. I am currently in USA. Please share any coupons, promo codes or voucher codes from these retailers.
Clove UK,
Handtec Uk
Expansys USA
New egg
or any other retailer which is offering a great price. Currently Handtec has the lowest price I could found i.e 45o gbp or 710 Usd.
I would greatly appreciate any help from all you.
Please bros, i really need to get it till black friday.
Handtec has the lowest price right now with a price drop to £434.99 on the Galaxy Note and they have the fastest shipping. In fact you'll probably get it faster ordering from Handtec in the UK than you would Newegg even unless you pay for overnight shipping. I'm in the US and both of my orders from Handtec were shipped and delivered the next day by FedEx.
