you will find it buy Nov. 25 in souq dot com
Sadly in Egypt it would be about 100$ more expensive than other countries prices or maybe more

Swappa is a good place to start. Just ask the seller if he/she can ship overseas. It would cost a bit more though depending on the shipping method.
Buying & selling is not allowed in the forums. Maybe have a look at Swappa as has been suggested. Thanks for your cooperation. Thread closed.

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

if you want it "now" you are going to pay for it.
craigslist
ebay
swappa
"might" have less of a mark up

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.

Hey guys, looking at getting a Nexus 5 and wondering why most of the Ebay prices I've seen are much HIGHER than the Google Play store? Considering Google Play has them in stock.... What's up with these ridiculous prices?

People are stupid?
You don't want to deal with UPS as your order fulfillment provider because they can't seem to manage to not screw up your order and fail to deliver your device in a timely manner?
You pick.

I just assumed that most people would check Google before going straight to Ebay and paying (in some cases) over $100 more. About to order one from Google Play right now..

When the Nexus 5's were first being sold, when it was sold out on the play store, people put them up on Ebay with a ridiculous mark-up.

This phone sells $800+ outside usa like in brazil or other places that cannot buy from playstore. No price is ridiculous as long as there is somebody willing to pay what you ask.

HI N5 community!
So I want to get one of these since my S4 is broken and pretty much done for. Now I just have one issue.
My dad is willing to buy the Nexus 5, but he lives in Oman and I live in Canada. So I tried sending him the link for the Nexus 5 on the Google Play Store, but it said it was not available in his country. He is just paying for it, and it will be sent to Canada which I'm sure Google has available in. Can anyone help me? He is paying by credit card if that helps and he wants to buy it but the site won't let him. Does anyone know ways to maybe trick Google into thinking he's in Canada so he can purchase it, or maybe even an alternative site to buy a 32GB Black Nexus 5? Thanks all!

Ask him to give you the credit card information then you order it - or alternatively he could try proxy browsing on a .ca proxy if he knows enough about PC's to set it up (and if Google can be fooled by this method)

Well I don't think he wants to give the information over the internet, so that is a definite no-no. Do you know any proxy's that might work? Thanks for the reply!!

Well you can ask him to stagger the information in various ways, one section by Email another by Text and rest by call etc -
Not to up to date with proxy stuff recently so not sure I'm afraid

N5 is available in Oman in many mobile shops (out of google play store)
@AmmVid, it might make sense for you yourself to purchase the phone in Canada either from a store or online. It is not because a phone bought in Oman won't work in Canada, but, rather, because it will be easier to obtain a warranty and, if need be, to have the device serviced or replaced. The funds easily could be sent to you by your father using PayPal.
Use hotspot shield app, it worked for me and I could access the nexus 5 page on the play store from UAE where it isn't available officially.

Hi, new to the forums and want to ask a question as maybe there are people here who will be able to help me.
I want to buy a nexus 5, and currently I'm looking at one on ebay for £50 less than the price on the google store. I asked the seller whether it comes with warranty and he said no as its being imported from outside the UK, however he said its a Genuine LG Nexus 5 even though its from hong kong (now you see my concern)
£290, is it worth risking it for a possible fake? (if there are fakes out there that is)
Thanks,
Rús

Pay the extra 50. It's worth it for the peace of mind and warranty. If it is a fake or it has a problem with it, it's going to be a nightmare and it's going to cost you much more to get it fixed.

ah ok, thanks. I was hoping I could buy the wireless charger for it with that money, oh well
I would post the link here for the auction but I'm not sure if thats allowed on these forums, I wouldn't expect it to be.
Pay the extra end of story......

Actually, it is very easy to buy this phone in online market, 16G cost 1999 and 64G cost 2299 (both of them are in yuan)
There is a thread explaining the differences between international and Chinese one. Click here please.
According to my experience, there is no difference between international version and the Chinese one in hardware. The only difference is Chinese version's modem which locks some of brands and therefore, leads to some unusable network. However, it's very easy to revert to 100% stock cm11s including the modem. more information in here.
Sorry for my crappy English.

Yes. A noob from Chinese
Local shop will cost more money than online market so online is the best choice, my friend.
You can get this from Jingdong online market which is very similar to the Amazon. Website is http://item.jd.com/1142209.html .
You can also buy it from opo official website at 10 o'clock on Tuesday and Friday mooning but the number is limited.
