I know I paid £100 more than I needed to but the google play site says shipping starts in 7 weeks, really didn't want to wait that long and it's still not bad compared to other phones on the market. Overall I'm a VERY happy Nexus Owner (nexus 7 32GB and Nexus 4 16GB)
I would have gladly paid extra as well, this thing is just brilliant. I'm glad I got it at the Play Store price, though enjoy your phone!

If you get a faultless phone, it is worth it. I paid 500 for a sgs3 and IMO the nexus is better. That said, I am willing to wait.
I done exactly the same thing. Sold my galaxy note 2 on eBay and bought the nexus outright

Bought thanks nt
Thanks a lot for the tip off.
thank you for the find
Nice product - I bought one immediately after getting my XP (paid £9.99) and it sits nicely on beside table with natty dimmed clock.....and, killer function is it charges overnight meaning I never need to think about charging
Cheaper here hxxp://www.foniacs.co.uk/sony-ericsson-dk300.html (£7.99)
Although I've never used foniacs, so not sure how good they are
The price on amozon keeps changing i seen it go as low as £7.15 I got it at £7.99 now its £9.99
That price makes more sense for the functions than what I paid.
This came bundled with my Xperia play and its really useful, My Xperia PLay is always above 50% because when ever I am at home its on the dock which charges the phone, Worth it.
Bought mine at foniacs few days ago for £7.99.. can't wait for it to come!

I learned that lesson after getting stolen a $200 dollar on contract phone after 2-3 months, then 6 months later the phone being only 250 w/o a contract (w880 I'm looking at you).
On topic: I bought a $2 plastic stand, no charging capabilities or fancy stuff, just to make it stand in portrait or landscape mode to watch movies and stuff. Not gonna spend on more SE if they keep limiting us with features.

Nice we finally have a thread! I have a 16GB I got from someone at sulit.com, how about you OP and have you experienced any of the known issues? Issues I have experienced are the screen flicker and screen lift. Doing the glue fix temporarily did the job, but after a few days it lifted again. Thinking of having this checked at by ASUS, but I want to DIY fix it first (more fulfilling).
The thing is that I haven't really played much with it but so far so good no lift issues or anything. It's pretty handy though. I'm loving my collection of nexus devices

A lot of people on ebay are profiting like crazy because they were able to buy like 6-7 phones. Sucks for us users that either got on the back order list or didn't get one. Google should have limited to 1-2 phones per address. If you cant buy locally then thats fine.
If I wasn't able to get mine from the play store I would have paid up to 450 for the 8 and 600 for the 16

Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Issue as your phone being damaged or not working..I don't believe Google honors a warranty made to someone else which leaves LG meaning you would most likely be without a phone for weeks.
You have to ask yourself if out would be better to wait a week or two or pay more and take a risk. Keep in mind that when ever we buy like this from these people it only encourages them to do it more.

BS "8 available / 27 sold"
It looks like some were able to order a lot more. I think this is total BS! It would have been awesome if no one would buy one off of ebay for these ridiculous prices and let the seller be stuck with them.

WHY?
You just got ripped off buddy
500.00 on Ebay is a fair markup. You figure the phone from the Play store will be around 375.00 - 400.00 after tax and shipping. The seller will make a 100.00 to 125.00 profit.

Not even that much. You have to factor in eBay costs and PayPal costs. I recently sold a pair of ice skates and I got hit with over $40 in fees.
So you figure my 16g n4 came to me for around 400 from Google. That means in order for someone to make any profit they need to sell it for at least 450.
With that being said posting it for $500 is not unreasonable. They are making like $50-60 bucks profit. I think that's fair for the effort of posting it etc.... I loath the people selling it for $800+ however. Just my .02

The bumper's only about twenty bucks, if you really want it, just suck it up and buy yourself one. Plus, if you've had the phone for a month you'd probably already have a case already. If the 20 + tax + shipping or w/e is too much, just go for the Poetic bumper, it really is amazing.

Bought my N7 for £185. Sold it a month or so ago for £130 - before the announcement of a new N7 dented the resale value some more.
That's £50 to have a Nexus 7 for about a year which is a bargain.
Might buy a new N7, might not. My HTC One is fulfilling a lot of my app needs.
If I did buy another tablet it would probably be a 10" one.
I would sell it but not many people want the old one now that the new one has been released

while i think the new N7 is a great deal, i think i'm going to skip this one. based on my usage of the first gen model, it still gets the job done. at their price point it certainly makes upgrading every year feasible, but i think i'm going to wait until v3 to upgrade again.
Nope, I'm not. (;
