Just wondering if any of these companies will price match Target at $359, eventhough the Transformer is sold out online and not in all stores?

I doubt it since the Target deal is dead. All of us that ordered with that deal had our orders cancelled.
Wow...didn't know that. What happened? Did they make a mistake on the price?
Don't forget that's a coupon and not an advertised price its a coupon.

Are u getting insurance for your new S4?
I know some people think its a waste and some people live by it! Well i have squaretrade on my nexus 7 and im getting it for my s4 to. I like knowing that if i brick it or whatever that im protected. Some people will say dont brick it or whatever, lol!
So are u getting insurance on it through tmobil or whatever plan u choose??
Yes, I am. I went 1 year squaretrade with my S3 for a great price, but they don't offer it anymore so I will go with the 2-year.
For me, it's peace of mind. For something I use so much, I don't mind the cost. Just look at a couple of the recent threads about people breaking their screens. If you have insurance, you will get a new/refurb device instead of opening the case up yourself, etc.
for me not worth it i never broke a phone ever so i guess i am very careful with'em
What's the difference between square trade and asurion from att?

same here, never broken a phone before... not worth the $84+ a year plus tax (verizon charges $7/month) plus then you get charged $100 if you break it....
cheaper to just replace the parts you break imo. also ive seen some water damage tests and it seems fairly water resistance compared to the s3... obviously not considered a water resistant phone but chances are it wont get water damaged...
just be careful with it lol
^it's $99 for 2 years of ADH
I'll probably get it since I usually give my old phones to family members who tend to break
Just got two years for 85. Used a coupon code from a newsletter.
$3.50 per month is worth it. If I accidentally run over it with an Abrams tank, $99 and I get a new phone.

If only it covered lost and stolen. It's crazy that ATT went up on monthly insurance so it could include a service that no one wants.
Edit: Maybe you could share that coupon?

i always considered lost/stolen to be kind of useless, for me at least... i never leave my phone in my car or anything, and its pretty slim chance that someone steals it right out of my pocket without me noticing lol...
though i did have a co-worker who had one stolen right at work, and i work in a verizon store... guess what? they wouldn't pull the tapes and they considered it his fault. he had insurance though so that's good.
does anyone have a squaretrade coupon code they can share with me ? id like to get 2 Years + ADH. :fingers-crossed:
After leaving my previous phone on the hood of my Jeep, safe to say I had to get insurance for my S4.
I never get a phone without insurance. Too risky, & costly.

I am getting best buy insurance.. its 6$ a month if you pay out right.. 10$ other wise, but the thing that is so awesome is there is no deductible! Its free if you break your phone, and geek squad, has an app even if your phones dead
it can track your phone and find it, you get the best protection with best buy, I have ausurion now and it sucked when my phone broke I had to pay 100$ best buy FTW!

I think you may have been lied to. How can it track a dead phone? It might tell you last known location, but it will not be able to track a dead phone.

Even if you buy your phone from another company, best buy will insure it?How long do they give you to buy insurance from them?

Some will, some won't. 30 days from purchase if they will.
So, I'm fully aware of the inflated cost and won't oblige, but if I found one on a site that was very close in price, what are the drawbacks? Is there a difference with warranty since it wasn't purchased on my account?
No.

Hello XDA,
I missed the small window of opportunity to purchase the nexus 5 from the play store (16 gb), and now it is almost a month out of stock. I am looking to buy the Nexus 5, but can't find a well-priced retailer. BestBuy andRadioshack (along with my carrier) tack on an extra $100 , which I really don't want to pay. Has anyone successfully purchased the nexus 5 from somewhere other than the Play store for less than $450? If so, is it still available from that location?
Thanks,
ccrama
(I am in the United States)
You may get better results if you edit your thread title to state which country you're looking to buy in.

Thanks, didn't think of that. Fixed
I think it's an awesome device
I personally would try craigslist. That's where I bought mine. The guy sold it for $400 which is like $9 more than it would have been with tax and shipping for google play

swappa

I'm going to try to find one on craigslist, but ebay is way overpriced, like 150-200 over play price. I might have luck on craigslist!
Stop posting questions in the General thread. Read the stickies.
You can get them anywhere now.

Hi guys! I did not know where to ask this question, so I turned on here may be some of you have an experience. I am planning to buy a Nexus 5 to replace my Nexus 4. Tis should be a pretty cheap phone now since 2 years has passed from its release. I live in Canada and I was planning to buy one from ebay. They ship from Hong Kong and looks like it is new. For example this one:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/LG-Google-Ne...319349?hash=item3396062d75:g:kB0AAOSw3ydVyHn4
Now my question is am I going to be charged with extra fees (like duty and taxes)? Anybody has any experience buying new phones from ebay shipped from china?
P.S. I am open to any suggestion for a new phone!
P.S.2. Sorry if the question is not really related to the forum, I just did not have anywhere else to ask it.
that ebay posting is over priced. you can get a 32 gb for cheaper than that now. my advice is keep looking on ebay, slickdeals, adnroid central, swappa for a good deal.
and you'll find one in no time.
Thanks drago10029! I will. Still do you know if I am going to be charged if I buy a new item from ebay (or any other site)?

charged? of course you have to pay for it, the prices are getting lower so continue to look for nexus 5 discounts.
) of course I know that. Please look at the first post. I was asking if I am going to be charged for duty and taxes for those items come from China.

It depends on shipper's declared value as to whether you are charged duties and taxes.
No mention of warranty on the listing.
Thanks. I contacted the seller. They said they offer 3 months exchange warranty and 1 year of repair.

I just bought a red 32gb from expansys. Will be delivered tomorrow. I'll post back about if it's in a factory box or anything else. I hope they're not trying to pass off refurbs as new.
I hope so. With the Canadian currency though, I think it is expensive for me. And i am not sure if they ship to canada. And if they do they would probably charge for taxes and other fees too!
