Have the retailers for Nexus 4 been announced yet?
Will the no-contract version be available at Walmart or Sam's?
I still have a sour taste in my mouth with Play Store from Nexus 7 launch.
So I would rather use a B&M retailer if I can.
Select T-mobile locations are supposed to get them. I called a local one here in SE Michigan and was told that they should know Monday if they will carry the Nexus 4 at their store or not. If not, they can order it and get it for you.
I don't know if the Nexus 4 will be available at other B&M locations other than T-Mobile, but at least you should be able to check the phone out at one of their locations.

That's a really good question. I haven't heard of any, and from the way Google is eating costs on the Nexus 4, I doubt many B&M retailers would WANT to carry it (and Google might not want to pay B&M stores to carry it when they have it in the Play Store with less overhead).
I think T-Mobile may be the only place as of now, and they won't have Play Store pricing.

Though I'd ideally like to pre order directly from Google, financially I'm currently unable to do so.
When the Nexus 7 actually launches, fat chance I'll have to patience to wait for it to be shipped.
Would a purchase from an indirect dealer such as Gamestop be a terrible idea? Thoughts?

I think they are only selling the 16 gb version if that makes a difference to you (at least for preorders). You won't have to pay $14 shipping and can trade in old games, consoles, or Apple stuff for credit. I got a $97 credit for an old iPod touch I got for free. They have a promotion that gives you 30% more than they normally would on trades that is going on through the 15th.
There are some other games you get with the device as well + 25$ google wallet. I don't know what else you get. Roomie is a store manager at Gamestop and told me about the deal.

The ones through the google site offer the same thing. A magazine, the Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon movie, and $25 Play credit. More stuff too I believe.
I got mine on release day in a store in NYC b/c i really wanted it.
Recently a friend asked me what tablet to get and i said i really love my 7, does everything and is cheap. Then he looks into it and wants to buy it, goes to 2 stores and they basically laugh at him.
It looks so bad when you are trying to win over new customers that no one even sells your product. Where can I tell him to go to buy it. I know staples, but thats embarssing in itself.
Online. Walmart has it too. I couldn't believe best buy doesn't sell it.

WalMart. This past weekend, one of my local WalMarts had 6 of them, and another one had 3. They don't advertise that they have them, there is no sample on display, and there are no signs. Just Nexus boxes locked up in the glass cabinet.
Every other store around here never has them in stock. Sam's Club, Staples and Gamestop have signs but no stock and no display model.
Game stop I went to had advertising everywhere but sold out. Said they sell too fast to keep in stock. Called for me and found one store that has a few in stock
This is in SLC, UT

He could install google shopper on a device of his and see what store nearby have it through that,
I got mine from staples
I got mine from office depot a few days ago. An 8gb one too. Not many stores carry the 8gb one. The Walmart by me had like 20 16gb ones in stock but I decided to buy mine in Oregon so no tax

RE
Walmart didn't stock them in my area.
Neither did GameStop, but they said they could order it for me...
Staples did stock them, but quickly sold out.
I ended up getting the second to last one at Office Depot.
Walmart at my local store in NJ still has some, that's where I got it.
You might be about to go to their website and find out who has it locally or maybe call customer service.
Does anyone know of any stores in the US that will be selling the Nexus 4 unlocked (ie exactly the same as the GPlay version)?
Best Buy, etc? I can't find any info out on their website

T-Mobile is promoting the same unlocked version of the phone, and I'm pretty sure they will sell it unlocked and off contract in stores also, but then again, I don't know what the price will be since you will be in a "T-Mobile store" and they can slap any price tag on an off contract "T-Mobile" phone that is promoted through their network.
It's been predicted around $ 500.00
You are better off in Google Play Store
negri electronics has it on pre-order, they don't know when they'll ship though
price is $100 more than play store. seems to be the only option for anyone outside usa/canada at the moment
Thanks for your help, folks I can order off play store as I'm in the UK, but I'm visiting the US next week and the play store US dollar prices work out less than the UK prices, so I was hoping I could nab a bargain in store

Why would you do that? You won't get warranty then.

Price is more of a seller than a warranty. The phone works out over £40 cheaper if I bought it at Play store prices in the US instead of the UK

I'm going out to Canada for a week at the end of the month, so I'm tempted to buy one over there too. I think there may be something that we can do in terms of sales tax too, but I don't know how this works and whether it's worth the hassle...
Anyone know how long it takes for something to be shipped and arrive from the Google Play Store? like 3-6 business days?

When I got my GNex it was 2 business days, then the stupid UPS decided they will not deliver on Saturday so I have to wait until the next Monday....
Hi,
I'm going from Denmark to New York in mid december, and really want to pick up a N4, since we can't order it from the google store here in Denmark.
Does anyone have a guess on how likely it would be for me to pick it up in a store in NY in mid december. I'm thinking stores like Best Buy and Staples (other stores I should look out for?).
I didn't follow the release of the Nexus 7, so I'm not sure how long it takes for these devices to be available from retail stores.
No one?
For the Nexus 7, it was available at retail stores right on the launch day of the Nexus 7 though I'm not sure if it'd be the same since this is a phone. Even if it didn't come right on the launch day, surely it'd be in by mid-December.
Thank you
I didn't realize that they would be selling the N4 in store? Was the original Gnex sold in stores?
I really don't think that they will be selling it in stores. I don't think they have sold any of the Nexus phones in stores other than the Verizon/Sprint variants which were not really Nexus. T-Mobile will sell it but for an inflated LG price.
Have you considered if you can order it online and send it to where you are staying or have a friend order it for you and you just pay him/her back when you are here?

I have thought about ordering it and getting it sent to my hotel. I have an American Express creditcard, so I'd assume that I should be able to use that on the Play Store, eventho the card is handled by some American Express company here in Denmark?
But I guess I'll wait and see. I'd prefer to buy it in a physical store if possible, but if my Amex card works as an American card, I'd certainly consider ordering it a few days before I leave, and then have it sent to the hotel.

It's posted in the general forum that the shipping address has to match your billing address. I don't know how that will work out for you, but if you are in no hurry I guess you can wait and see.

Retail sales are unlikely, at least for a while. T-Mobile in the US seems to be the only B&M location to get your hands on them, and their pricing is not the same as Google's.
