Hi everyone! I'm not sure if it's the right place for this kind of thread but I would like to know what you think of this site: kmax-store (dot) com . So basically I want to buy a galaxy S4 and their price is amazing: 500$ for a 16 gb international version + 26$ shipping to Canada. The site doesn't offer a paypal payment method so I'm a little skeptical whether it's a legit site or not. Do you guys know someone who already ordered something from this site and received the item? Thank you.

That big site is weird, many international lenguages, many products, amazing prices... Western union paiment??? Unable to find a single review over the net... Hum... I'd also like to order an s4 there but I'm worried...
Ok so I heard about this site when I contacted a guy who was selling his galaxy s4 on kijiji for 550$. Unfortunately, he said that he already sold it but told me that he bought it from kmax-store and said that I could also buy one from them... But I don`t really have proof that he really bought it there so I think I'll just wait for someone else to order and make a review of the site or something.
Guess what? Same story here. The same guy told me on kijiji montreal that I can get one at kmax. Got to be scam!!

This is bull$hit ^^
You created your account to confirm that they're not scam?
Ok show us proof/papers from that website.
Just blurr out your name/address and imei number.
Untill someone legit here can confirm that site is safe, i highly recommend to stay away from it.
Yesterday I was going through the checkout process just to see what kind of payment method was available. Once I saw there was no paypal and a weird money transfer to a bank I knew that something was wrong so I didn't pay. Now look what I received today in an e-mail from the store:
"Hello, Every day KMax and Samsung offer to our customers 1 x Samsung Galaxy S3 32GB White. You are the winner for today. To confirm the winning, you must complete your payment for your first order and provide a photo or scan of the bank transfer receipt or Statement.
Please reply to provide more details."
So yeah as Dean said this site is total bull****. Now I feel really bad for those who placed an order there:/

This may be only for UK owners but at w w w motorola.kondor.co.uk you can enter your IMEI and receive a free Shell, colour options available too. Servers are not up yet so tomorrow or Monday it should be good to go.
This will mean ive gotten 3 free cases in total
What do you mean 3? I know only of 2:
1) The one that came with the tesco version (i suppose you have that one)
2) This one
Could you tell me what is the third?
I got a free white cover from phones4u when buying mine, be nuce to get free shell as been in 2 minds on whether to get one - what's the catch other than giving out imei?
Edit: lpoks like just for new purchases :
Purchased between 24/12/13 and 26/02/14
Will give it go anyway!

Keep getting code you entered cannot be found after entering IMEI - will they have a list of which IMEI were sold when? Also mine is unlocked.
I'm getting IMEI not recognised too.
I bought mine locked to o2 cheaply off ebay, then unlocked it, my imei worked so maybe it's for o2 customers?
Went back on and entered my imei for a second time after placing an order and it doesn't stop me from ordering again which is a bit weird?

Thanks for the link!! I submitted yesterday about 2:00 pm (U.S. EST) and got my code a little after midnight last night. The savings offered by the code appear to actually be only $30 off the 8GB model and $40 off the 16GB. Can somebody else confirm this please. It's possible that they might send out different codes perhaps?? Anyway, still a nice discount!!
EDIT: The code is good for $50 off the Moto X
Requested a code as well

I can confirm that it takes $40 off the 16gb moto g US model (that's what I ordered with my code). It brought the price down to $159 plus tax and added free 2-day shipping. It's already shipped and will be here tomorrow.
Thank you. I got my code this morning when I check my email. Now I just need my tax refund to be able to order it.
Still waiting for my code, will order one for sure

No it doesn't. But the code is good for like 6 months. If Moto X or G goes on sale, it will be an even hotter deal.
There are many warehouses near the borders that accept packages.

If anyone needs the code I'd love to give it away

Mine was ordered on June 4th with regular shipping and arrived June 8th.
As far as tracking it did not show up in an email, however, logging into the huawei website I was able to find a tracking number there. Mine was delivered via USPS.
I ordered on the evening of June 4th and received the phone, case, bluetooth speaker & $50 tracfone activation code on June 11th delivered by UPS. It showed as from Amazon.com with the origin of Middleton, DE. The Net10 BYOP activation kit was delivered by the USPS on Monday June 8th.
Phone is fine for what it cost with the promotional deal. I don't care for the Huawei skin/modifications so am looking forward to some custom ROMs. Also hope that Huawei gets a lollipop update out in the next month or two.
I found an auto rotation bug that stops the phone from correctly orienting when it is rotated 180 degrees in portrait position.
No NFC, 5GHz WiFi or wireless charging though I can live without those while I wait for the next Google Nexus phone/s in the fall. This is a gap phone as I dropped my Nexus 5 and the screen is cracked enough to be an annoyance to use. I would have sent it in to LG to get repaired however I can't be without a phone until it is returned.

If you din't want the $99 bundle, then for sure call the 1-800-SAMSUNG # and explain to them what is going on and for them to correct what's needed so you can make sure you get your free VR headset at the very least. Sooner than later. With how fast these bundles sold, I'm afraid they won't have enough free headsets for those that pre-ordered.
I pre-ordered from Best Buy on 3/31. When I picked up the S8 on 4/21 the receipt from Best Buy showed the date as 4/21. I uploaded that receipt when I registered for the free gift. Anyone know if Samsung will know that the phone was pre-ordered and not simply bought on 4/21?
Has anyone submitted a receipt similar to my situation and had their registration for the free gift approved? Thank you!

You can likely print out your phone upgrade agreement from your carrier, that should show when your account was updated the day your pre order was placed. How that helps.

I pre-ordered from Best Buy and got the same message from Samsung when I uploaded the receipt they gave me with the phone. Luckily I pre-ordered online so I went to bestbuy.com, logged into my account, and clicked "Order Status" at the top of the screen. Then I clicked the order number for the purchase of my S8 and that took me to a page showing the order details, including the date that I pre-ordered. I clicked the print button on that page and it printed a full receipt with the order date and pickup date. I just uploaded that receipt so hopefully that will take care of it.
For anyone who is interested, the Order Details screen URL was www-ssl.bestbuy.com/profile/orders/order-details?orderId=<your order ID>
