so the nexus store is shut down. there doesn't seem to be a way to buy the official desktop dock anymore. is it for sale anywhere else for the same price?
I was wondering the same thing I wanted to get the car dock too.

Call HTC. They may be able to shed some light on the situation.
Glad I got my car dock a couple weeks ago.
A Google employee just recently posted on the official Google Android forums and he had this to say:
"Sorry guys. Now that the web store is closed you can't buy any accessories from Google. Your only option at this time is to buy from third party resellers if you're so inclined. Thanks for supporting the Nexus One!
All the best,
Ry Guy"
Sucks for me, as I was hoping to buy the car dock in the near future.
Was it ever possible to order the docks directly from htc? I'd rather avoid the ebay gouging that's bound to start now.

Darn... So far I haven't been able to find any of the two docks for a normal price (i.e. the price google charged for them).
On ebay I found some US sellers that add 15, 20, 25 USD above the google retail price. Over here in Europe expansys sells, for instance, the desk docks for the (imho) staggering amount of USD 88!!
Any tips would be highly appreciated though!
What are the odds that the following battery is real?
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Original-OEM-Bat...Accessories&hash=item3a5cb74a64#ht_2432wt_912
$5.99 + $3.99 SH for the OEM battery???
Jesus ****ing christ Google, could you **** this up any worse
I am not happy about the way this whole thing has been handled. The car dock took FOREVER to come out, then it was out what 2 months before they shut down the store?
Jesus christ.
i wont lie, this is some bull**** right here... I'm on my original battery and I can tell it doesnt have its good ole charge anymore, was looking to get another one and possibly the desktop dock as well but now we are **** out of luck...
i was going to buy the car dock yesterday, but hesitated. now the store shut today. luckily i found one on ebay for $75. not too bad imo. im willing to spend the few extra bucks. there arent going to be many of these available. i would find one while you still can
I ordered the car dock last night on a whim..... Thank goodness for that. A little bit of a shock to wake up this morning to find the store closed!

HTC Accessory Support
I spoke to an HTC representative this morning to attempt to purchase an original desktop dock for my Nexus One. I called 888-716-3594, a number I read about calling in another XDA Nexus thread.
I was told HTC is gearing up to support Nexus One accessory sales very soon. Calls demand at this number have been many I am told. the representative said to give a few more days, and to monitor the HTC web site "Product Sales".
Waiting to see how true it might be.

Hopefully it happens. If not, Google has royally shafted Nexus One users. I just got my Nexus One right before the store closed down. It sucks that I'm not able to get the desktop dock or a spare battery (should I need one) from them anymore.
I was thinking I would not be able to get my hands on either of these accessories until I read what you posted. Crossing my fingers for HTC supporting Nexus One accessory sales.
i will <3 htc forever if they allow us to buy accessories straight from them. I dont' see why they wouldn't...they still probably have stock of docks and batteries, since they were OEM supply. i imagine they just need to set up the products on their stores.

Really hope this works out!
I just got off the phone with HTC and they said there's no way to buy any of the accessories for the Nexus One, and the rep was unable to give me any information about future availability. She only said the phone was "no longer available in North America."
Sucks.
I found a place to get the desktop dock, but unfortunately the car dock is not available!
Heres the link.
negrielectronics.com/google-nexus-one-desktop-dock.html
THEY HAVE NEXUS ONES T-MOBILE AND AT&T TO BUY TOO!
FFS.. I knew I should have bought a second N1 I really want both the docks now but live in Australia so it's (WAS!) extortion getting them here.. :'(
hi all.
i'm looking for the real one, the original, the authentic one.
i already tried on ebay but they all are, at best, just close to the original quality...
i contacted htc europe and htc america but both said they don't know anything about the pouch
i finally read google forums but we all know that it is not so easy to get a google answer...
sorry but... who built it?
sources and links are appreciated,
thanks...
A friend of mine recently got the original pouch from HTC USA for free...

i wrote the htc support via their website form but... nothing to do.
these are two of their answers:

Thank you for your prompt response. Unfortunately, HTC does not manufacture any accessories for our devices. They are all made by third party companies. Therefore, we have no way of knowing exactly which neoprene case you are referring to or who makes it. You would need to know the manufacturer of that case and check their site to see if it is still in production. However, here are some additional sites that you can check. Your best option might be the Amazon link as they have the largest number of resellers linked to their site. Shop America - http://www.shopamerica.htc.com/homebrands/index.htm Amazon.com - http://www.amazon.com/cell-phones-s...b/181-6435952-2642542?ie=UTF8&node=2335752011 Expansys - http://www.expansys-usa.com/ HTC Depot - http://www.htcdepot.com/ DayDeal - http://www.daydeal.com/home.php?cat=5452 NOTE : We do not recommend purchasing accessories from online auction sites, or little known resellers outside of the US and Canada. We deeply regret any inconvenience this may cause you, and we hope that you are able to locate the case you need from one of these sites. As always, we are here to answer any technical questions or concerns you may have between 6am to 1am EDST, 7 days a week for your convenience, or by phone at 1-866-449-8358.

could you ask him what did he do?

When I was still under the 1 year warranty that comes for free from HTC, i called inquiring about my phone. I then asked if they sold oem headphones & pouch, he replied with they're covered too. He sent me new pair of headphones and pouch.

well, i would also be willing to pay for it...
I called HTC in the first week of January 2011 and managed to get a new battery cover and battery just as my warranty expired. But they claimed they were totally out of pouches and redirected me to the accessories phone line and web site. The original pouch is not on that site. My pouch is getting seriously shredded up... so sad.
People actually use those?
I think I put my phone in it on day 1, put the pouch back in the box and never looked at it again.
I just tried the 1 888 216 4736 line (which BTW has been taken down from HTC's site) and went to the warranty department. I explained that I was looking for this specific accessory which did not seem to be on sale anywhere, and which came in the box with my now out-of-warranty phone.
She put me on hold for a little while, and eventually did say that the pouch was available to be sent out as a replacement. I was willing to pay for it due to my warranty being over, but she said that didn't seem to come up on any of the screens she saw. So now I have an order number and a replacement is supposed to arrive. I'll let you know if it ever shows up!
I wonder if it's stretchy enough that it'd fit over an HTC Sensation with some coaxing.

Lol yeah I can see why... its a bit geeky to say the least and can be a bit annoying to use.
On the other hand I DO use my everyday since I got the phone (only got my N1 this January though (a bit outdated then I know)) and its brilliant! Keeps the phone really well protected from drops and scratching! Honestly if you still have yours and don't use another case anyway I would highly recommend using it!
I use mine more now than I ever have. I've had two otterbox cases break on me and I don't feel like dishing out the money to buy a new one, so I've just been using the pouch that came with the phone.
Here's one I found on eBay...
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Original-Ne...ccessories&hash=item3363efd4b5#ht_2248wt_1163
Mine has never been out of the box, but I might be tempted to sell it if they're going for $100!
My replacement arrived from HTC! The part number on the packing slip is 70H00221-00M, for what it's worth.

I'm looking to get a 3G P6800 and was wondering where others in the US purchased from?
Looks like NegriElctronics has them for $512 but I've never dealt with them before.
Thanks!

I, like a few members here, got it from them. Very reputable and fast shipping (at least in my case). They will be my go to retailer for future unlocked devices.

I have purchased products from On The Go Solutions for a number of years and they have been helpful. Not sure they are the cheapest but you get what you pay for and they work hard to deliver. they produced a second P6800 for me and the second had a 32 gb internal memory.
Got mine off of a 3rd party reseller on amazon and didn't get as good of a deal as that. Wish I had known about them. Oh well, still loving the 6800.
Im from germany ..... and got my p6800 from negri within 2 day express shipping!!!!
negri accept also amazon payment so for me it is also a save shop.
the service is fast ... you can instant communicate over the web!!!!
i hope this helps you

hi folks
am after a little help please. i am looking to buy the 64gb version of this phone if i can get an invite. but that is NOT what this thread is about. Im a little confused over the pricing structure and was hoping some folks could explain it to me and maybe say what they did?
Ok so i looked here http://oneplus.net/one and the price shows as $349 which converts to about £215. great that looks like an awesome price for this spec. Im sold and now i want one.
However, this morning whilst doing my usual reading and searching i happened upon this http://oneplus.net/uk/one which shows the price as £269?!?! Ok so now i am confused. there appears no difference between the phones linked and they are both apparently from the same official source. SO why the huge price difference??? Could i not just buy from the first link and save 20% or would they not ship the phone to england if i buy from that page, or worst still would i get hit with huge custom charges? If it just means the shipping takes longer than the price would justify the wait.
Sorry for the questions but im really on the edge about buying this phone and for £215 im sold but at £269 well thats a different sale i need to make to the missus lol.
Thanks for looking and for any help advice you can offer,

Its because of tax reasons, haven't you noticed that tech is expensive in the UK?
The US is generally the cheapest place to get tech.
So do you think I'd be able to buy it from the first link and pay the same price as they do in the u.s.? Tyia

Price in UK is £269. Including VAT. If you buy in USD, I think you'd have to have it delivered to the US. £269 is still a fantastic price though...

Cant argue with you that its a fantastic price. but id managed to convince the other half when it was £215 but boy does she love to disagree with me :crying:
SO i presume then if i order it through the usd link they either wont send it or will simply add the tax on at customs or something?
Cheers for the replies folks.

helpful? How could it be?
My question was why are there two different prices listed for this phone one in gbp and one in dollars. And can i or anyone in the uk purchase the phone and pay in dollars? If its possible would anyone here know if we would have to pay customs duty?
With that restated you have attempted to derail my thread by making it about using the search function.
The first is a link to a comment from opo saying this phone can be purchased in the uk.
Your second link is an off topic thread for folks in the uk. Both not even from xda
The third link is about using the phone on threes network.
The fourth link is about someone asking where the phone can be purchased and appears to end with folks talking about selling/buying on gumtree.
The fifth is about someone asking about how long their order may be in the delivery process.
Would you care to elaborate how that in anyway shape or form answers my question? Or can you answer my question? Or would your searching powers be able to show me the link to that answer?
If not i dont really get what you hoped to achieve with your two posts. And would humbly ask you to please reply no further.
I have just had to waste 5 minutes of my life to respond to your comments which im never gonna get back. If you dont like/agree or have any useful info to provide to a topic please just ignore it!
Apologies to anyone else that has had to read these comments they are pointless and achieve nothing. They will also undoutedly prevent me from getting an answer to my original question.

then fair play and i thank you for your help.
ok guys just in case anyone else comes across this issue i think i know the coup now.
I went online to order the phone via an invite i was kindly given by a member here. It automatically took me to the price in us dollars so i went through the order process and when i tried to pay via paypal. It said i was in the wrong store and it forced me to the uk store and to then pay in gbp. So it did indeed ultimately cost me the extra 20%. I know i could have got it sent to a pal of mine in america but i didn't.
Hope this clarifies the situation for anyone else wondering.
It also applies for €.
Its pretty clear the oneplus/UK site 269 pretty simple? In us its 349 something like that. There's a difference in price because of different vat etc.
I bought a one plus one I'm in UK I managed to understand....
Looking for US based retailer.
Any info greatly appreciated, and TIA!
If you scroll down you will find threads where they are only in Germany or you can get non-samsung ones from ebay or Amazon. I think they are all the same (own vs Chinese ones)

My bad... Thought I'd posted in accessories thread. I'm aware that they can be ordered from Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, etc, but I'm looking for a US based retailer.
