I live outside US, and I am planning to visit US in the following weeks.
I heard that there are real (physical) stores of google where devices like nexus, chromebooks are sold. I searced for it, but couldn't find anything.
Is there really any real google stores, like apple store where you can buy the devices right away and pay the money as cash?
If so do they have a site, how can i check the locations of the stores?
Thanks.
I'm not aware of any "Google Stores" such as you describe, only Apple Stores.
Let me know
let me know if you get such store. I am curious though.
So there is no such thing for certain, right?
indeed
yes there is no such thing.

Will it ever reach people outside the US? i believe there is a huge market out there for amazon to gain traction on the android platform. amazon app store with half as many good offers as the US model would work wonders.
I searched for you, but I had no luck in finding any true relevant infosssss IDK. As of now, no true mention but I would guess so soon...
Works for me in France

thanks mate. appreciate the effort.
frustrating really this. then again i guess the entire point of having an amazon android app store is about competing with android market only in the US especially since amazon isnt really big out side the US or UK.

In my own experience I can attest that they are very present in Germany and Austria as well.
I would guess they are very well known in France and Spain, too.
Here is an overview over their local presences: http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=487250
At this point, the Amazon Android App Store is probably not all that successful in the US, it likely doesn't make any sense at this point to market it in Europe.
Some electric products can't be shipped to outside of US.
I tried many times, but there seems to be a regulation specially for computer staffs.
i live in Denmark and use the store on amazon.co.uk
Amazon have only recently started shipping to Ireland too i believe which is shameful, a global company like this should ship worldwide.
First of all sorry for abrupt subject but i think most of you will agree with me....
why is Google acting cocky?(sorry for inappropriate usage of the word) I'm just venting the anger and frustration of millions of Indian tech freaks who are currently facing . India is not the country we knew 2 decades ago, i know that ,you know that and the world definitely knows that....the omniscient Google knows it better than anybody else..
Then may i ask you why are you ignoring India?...let it be an establishment of play store or purchase of the mighty nexus 4... India or rather Indians are sidelined...do we deserve this..really?
Everybody knows google's nexus series has the best line of tabs n smartphones out there..but don't you think even we are entitled to a reception it gets like in the US, UK or Australia. Are we supposed to wait for 4-6 months and end up paying an exorbitant price for a smartly priced device in the US(in play stores).
Or is it below google's dignity to open a play store in India? not sure.
.
Many people might not know why this is happening but I'm god damn sure you have nice reason...for this partiality meted out to Indians.
It may be a political or some economic motive you guys have in mind but are you sure your not losing out on something? the market you can have in India..
Can somebody answer these...preferably larry page
You definitely have the "trash talking" part of the English language down!! LOL :good:
Yup I agree
All phones that are cheap outside cost several hundred dollars here
Including the iPhone
Google nexus 4 recently came on some internet store in india at a hefty price tag of almost $600? Wtcrap
Its simple logic.. The nexus line manufacturers like the samsung n lg would not like google to sell a tab better than the samsung note 800.. for a lesser price.. It would directly effect the sales of samsung n lg products.. Which r way costlier than nexus devices..

Hi Guys,
Is there any "successful" way of selling apps outside of google play? As you may guess, I am from one of the many countries that are not able to sell apps on the google market.
I've already got a free app, and I want to further develop it..but being unable to sell it is a huge drawback
Thanks!
There are also other markets for Apps. Cant you sell at them neither?
My question was more like, if anybody has good experience with these other markets.. I am going to try slide.me and opera market and maybe report back here..
The latest rumours suggest that the Nexus 5 will be launching on the Google Play Store this 31st of October. I live in Australia so does that mean that I should be able to buy the Nexus 5 on the Australian Google Play Store on 31st of October or is this launch only for the US?
Don't know yet - we'll have to wait and see. Typically Aussie release is a bit behind the US though
They will probably launch through the Playstore. Better keep up with the update because this baby will be sold out in a heartbeat.

Really? I heard that if they launch in all countries, it will be a roll-out launch. Which means that Australia will get the device before the US does.

No way. US Play Store will absolutely be the first place it is released. It may become available at that same time in the Play Store of other countries or at other places (T-Mobile, Canadian carriers, anyone else who sells the N5), but definitely not before the US Play Store.
I am talking about ordering, though, and not actually receiving the device. We all know that when we order from Google, the shipment may arrive as soon as the next day or as late as six weeks later.

I would usually disagree with this and as the poster above says the US would get released first knowing Google is a US based company but now seeing that Google is releasing updates to iOS apps before their very own Android apps I wouldn't put it past them to do anything anymore.
Maybe we will be able to buy it in the Apple store first and we can also be lucky and stand in lines overnight.

Well I thought that too until I researched and found out that Google did a staggered rollout for the Nexus 4 to launch at 8AM last year. And since the sun rises in the east, Australia reached 8AM before any of the countries in the Google Play Store countries list did effectively making US Google Play store one of the last to start selling. By the time USA reached 8AM, Australia is already sleeping happily at 11PM knowing they've already ordered their Nexus 4.
They might roll it out in the UK Play store as well, since they have a stock of 3,000 at car phone warehouse ( according to the leaks). Why release it to the stores before the Play store? But 31 Oct or even 1 Nov seems less likely since Google hasn't yet announced an event ( or NDA'd the announcement?) unless they make it a Halloween treat?
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.
