hey guys, i have a question, im in the UK and want to buy something from google play....but it doesn't say anything about shipping? will the item be shipped from a UK factory? because i don't want to get it sent from overseas for example and they charge me import tax/vat
Hi everyone!
Well, I'm from Brazil and got a friend who is going to USA next weeks. So I wanted to buy a Nexus 5 from there, because here it's so expensive.
If I bought it from here, would cost at least $800!
He is going to Miami. So I wanted to ask you americans where can I buy it? From Google Play, it costs $399, but will be delivered only 3-4 weeks; he won't be there anymore :/
Is there any other local store from Shere he can buy it? T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint? Bestbuy, Amazon, or other store? Could you show me prices?
Other question, the Nexus 5 from USA is not compatible with band 7 (LTE), right?
Thank you all so much, and sorry for my bad english
Yes, the USA version does NOT support LTE band 7.
Frankly, unless you're in the USA, you shouldn't be buying the USA model. In addition, unless you're buying it from Google Play, you'll be paying more. No other store is charging the same price as Google Play.

Thank you for your quick response.
Here in my city, the LTE is not working yet, and I guess it only will work at the second half of 2014 :/ So this is not a big problem.
I can buy it at maximum of $450..

Best Buy, Sprint, and T-Mobile sell the 16GB Nexus for $450.
Hi!, dunno if this is the correct forum but I figured it was either here on in the general Nexus 5 so hope it's right .
I'm in Argentina and will be spending 10 days in NYC during the second part of January. I want to buy a N5 but I'm not sure where to do it since they are way too overpriced in both Amazon and ebay and I can't buy them directly from the play store because it's blocked from my country and I'm not sure what the shipping times would be in case I manage to order it from there once I'm in the US (some friends told me that to buy through the US play store you need a US credit card too).
I know there are some retailers that sell it but do they sell it unlocked or only with contracts with carriers?. Any other options to try to buy one?.
Thanks!.
Check out Best Buy!
Yeah, I checked there and it only has the 16GBs model and ~$150 more expensive than the play store (and even more expensive than the 32GBs version in Amazon which is at around $450).
I think bestbuy just sells sprint version.its locked

Well any store you buy it in is going to have it marked up from the Play Store because that's just how the US is. It sucks, but yeah.
You should find a broker willing to ship it to you from the US. Meaning: you give them money, they buy the phone, they get the phone, they ship the phone to you. Simple!

No, it is NOT locked.
You can buy the unlock version in Best Buy but according to their website they only have the 16GBs version.
All nexus 5s are the same they're all unlocked for use

So three options (maybe only two?) for purchase of the 4G LTE (XT1045) model; Amazon, Motorola, or Google Play. I suspect that Motorola and Google Play are going to be the same. So that basically leaves Amazon and Google Play.
Is there any pros/cons to either site? I do see they both provide free shipping and the price is the same. I guess it would have to do with customer service and any warranty issues.
Where did you get your Moro G 4G LTE?

Google is not currently selling the 4G LTE version of the Moto G, but they may in the future.
I ordered mine from Amazon.

I tried ordering one from Motorola directly, but they apparently have a contract with Fedex which prevents them from shipping to a UPS store or PO box: has to be a home or work address (neither of which is optimal for me). Their shipping department is goofy So I just ordered mine from Amazon.
Thanks, just checking to see if there was any advantage of one over the others. But I guess Amazon would probably be the best source. Wonderful and thanks.
Verizon has an online deal at the moment where the Moto Insta-Share Projector is free when you purchase any Moto-Mod!
The cheapest Moto-Mod available that is in-stock is the Kate Spade Style Shell for $39.99. Plus shipping is FREE.
https://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/moto-mods/
Notes:
* You do not need to have a Verizon phone to purchase accessories on the Verizon site.
* This CAN be combined with an employee discount if you currently get a discount on your Verizon bill through your employer, however you may need to add it to your cart BEFORE you log in, otherwise it may only show a 25% discount instead of the free projector offer. With my employee discount the case is only $29.99. Not all employee discounts include discounts on accessories.
Cool deal, I just can't see a use for it, for me anyways.
Sadly, the projector is sold out on their website right now.

and i talked to a Verizon chat support person. They said you need to also add the projector to your cart if you want the projector for free.
If this isn't the case, please let me know.

Wow, if so then that is stupid, since they don't even show the projector on their motomod page.
Unfortunately there is no specific info listed for the offer. Usually the free projectors are fulfilled through Motorola. That is how I got my "free with z2" projector.
With all the free projector offers lately, I have to wonder if there is a Projector V2.0 coming sometime soon. Would be nice to have higher resolution on the projector.

you have to search for it to find it.
https://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/motorola-projector-moto-mod-black/
i bet the projector just isn't selling so they are getting rid of stock by making people buy other moto mods. trying to get people hooked into the moto mod market.
Here is every accessory that Verizon has for motorola on their site. https://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/motorola/
Was able to pick up this deal in store. Has to be a verizon store. Not authorized dealer.
It may be best to check it out in a Verizon store. I went in and found my local store had several projectors in stock, as well as a plethora of other Moto Mods. Be prepared though, if your not a Verizon customer, be prepared for a pushy salesperson. The person who sold me the mods were constantly asking me to switch, even after I said no.
If you didn't had the chance to get one, or for everybody outside the US:
a lot people from the US are selling their free 'Projector Mods' on ebay.com. I bought the 'Insta Share' Mod at 73€ (88$) - brand new and sealed. It took 2 Weeks to deliver and today it arrived. ...in Europe they cost around 300€

same here, since I'm in Europe I've bought one from ebay ~120$ with customs included, a bargain compared to the retail price over here.
Still the offer? I've seen on the Verizon page that the projector mods are out of stock
