Hi guys
I've been looking to buy a Galaxy Note 8.0 for quite some time now and I've been looking for the best deal I can get, but for 425+tax in Canada its a little too expensive. I found a refurbished one on eBay totally $350 including shipping & import charge. Do you guys think its a good deal or should I wait a bit to buy it new when some store has a promotion (if they ever do)
What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance for your opinion!

That's the one I'm talking about, but with shipping and import charge for Canada it totals up to 350. Is that still a good deal? Or for that price would I be better off just buying it new

I would say no it's not a good deal. I got my Note brand new for $320 at Office Max with a coupon.
EDIT: just caught the Canada part. Are you in a part of Canada where you can just drive across the border?

I'm selling my 5110, 270 euros, this sale 350 seems excessive
Alright so I just found another one here's the check out page :
$289.99 Samsung 8 Galaxy Note 8.0 16GB White Tablet
+$14.94 International Priority Shipping - $14.94 Includes international tracking
+$18.04 Import charges
$322.97 Total
What do you guys think? Ok deal for a refurb? New seems to be out of the question 'cuz of the price tag. I'd say **** it and go for the nexus 7 but I really want the added functionality of the S Pen (college<3)
I've been looking around a lot more today and BestBuy has it for $429.99 + 15% tax which totals up to near $500, same for Staples except it's 7 cents cheaper lol

Take a look at the below link, it's a thread on a popular Canadian deals forum . There's a way on how to obtain a coupon for $50 off any tablet over $299 at staples. So your should be able to get it for $379+tax. I believe the coupon is good until July 29.
Im just personally waiting for bestbuy or futureshop to drop the price of the tablet to $379 and use the staples coupon there.
Goodluck and happy hunting.

Awesome thank you! I found a seller on amazon for 399 and he just happens to be 20 minutes away I might go see them today try and get a deal out of them (if I could save tax its enough). If not might have to just price match it as BB and get $33 off...
UPDATE: The coupon for staples won't work for me, thanks anyway man
UPDATE#2: I found a seller on eBay, BNIB for 325 including shipping I got it without hesitation should be here Monday or Tuesday! Thanks guys! I'll see you all around the forum

Got my 16GB for $229 on 1saleaday as a refurb. It came in a brown box instead of OEM box, but looks and operates like brand new. Not a single mark or scratch anywhere.
Costco has their price for the US Galaxy Note 10.1 for $479.99 but with no coupon needed, get it for $439.99 from Jan 31-Feb24. Good deal.

I got my Note 10.1 from Costco 4 days ago! I couldn't wait another week and it was sold out everywhere so I'm happy even thought I didn't got the $40 disfount.
The one by me has the 16gb white.
Online they have the 32gb gray for 549.99
Went to my Costco today and saw the rebate had been upped to $50. This was in Eureka, Calif., so YMMV.
Picked one up today in Wyoming, MI for $458.79 (on sale for $429.99 with instant rebate). I think it's a great deal! I've been looking online for one and lowest I'd found was around $490 (new).
Great tab! I'll be hanging around here more now.
Anybody ever have any luck getting Costco to refund the difference due to the price drop? I paid $479 at a Costco on Dec. 28, and I am well within the 90 day return policy. I would like to avoid attempting to return it (partly because I've dropped it once and now have some scratches on it).

Oh that does suck. I'm sure your discount would've been more than $40 off.
Bought mine in Socal on Sunday for 429.99. I originally wanted the 32 gb but thought this deal was too good to pass up!
I wish they'd do this in the UK stores
So I work at Staples and they announced today that we can sell the 2nd gen Nexus 7 immediately. Most stores already have stock. So if your looking for one better get it quick.

Don't see why it wouldn't. Can't test online since they are "discontinued".
I just printed and read it and it says all tablets. No mention of not being allowed on the new n7. It does expire 07/28/13.
I will be trying it out this afternoon.

Yeah, I realize that. Some people might want to just walk in and pick it up vs waiting for shipping. There are no returns on the ebay deal. Get a bad one and you're waiting on LG for a warranty repair.
I just upgraded my phone to the s5 at my local best buy in Knoxville, TN. It cost me under $13 for an upgrade. Here is how it worked. I signed up at the beginning of the year for the $50 off a phone if you upgraded at Best Buy. They also have a promotion going now that you can get a $50 gift card that you will get via email like 15 days later (the gave it to instantly). Then they price matched Amazon at $112 and some change. So you take the $112 and subtract the $100 in gift cards and you get my $12. That's an awesome deal if you ask me!
Best Buy will price match up to 14 or 15 days so if you recently purchased one from them you can go back and get some of your money back. Hope this helped someone out.

It's up to managers discretion. I have 5-6 in my city and 2 of them price match amazon. I'm hoping the S5 Prime will be cheaper on Amazon than Best Buy so I can price Match and use my Best Buy card

On topic of price matching at best buy with amazon the price match fine print CLEARLY states they will price match Amazon as long as its sold by Amazon.
So just print out the ToS and show it to them if they say no.
Works every time for me.

I did the same thing when it came out but paid way more since I got it a few days after it came out now I'm wishing I would have waited.

My "extend your 2 year contract" pricing was $149.99 before tax.
On Sprint.
:crying:
My contact was up on Sprint. Sprint wanted $199. Amazon wanted $99 for renewal. I got it from Amazon. Plus I believe I'm getting a $25 gift card from Amazon after I activate the phone. So, $75 after rebate. Not bad. It ain't as good as $13, but its better than $199!

I know is almost a month old, however I upgraded to the S5 tonight at Bestbuy here in Knoxville, TN. They price matched Amazon (contract phone), and received a $50 gift card from BB...so out the door was $59 after taxes... Not $13, but not bad either.
I went to Best buy because they had the S5 for $99 as an upgrade. I waited till Sunday because it was my only day off, price went back to $199 for Sprint and down to $99 for Verizon. So I asked about $100 for old phones. Girl checked pc and my 3yr old Galaxy S slider was only worth $5. I went to Sprint owned store and paid $199 but felt more like a loyal customer.

Got mine for $99, gave my wife my S4, sold her S3 on Swappa for 190. Someone is not too bright for sure.
I got mine at Best Buy also but they told me they would not price match online stores. Brick and mortar stores with in stock phones only.
