Thanks. I've been toying with the idea of getting one of these for a while. This pushed me over the edge.

This is a hot deal. They're normally $225 on B&N's site.

Wow, it's just one sale after another for our beloved NC. I might consider a second one for the wife.

I was just about to post this. Deal is still on.
I have 2 nook coming my way. 1 I bought two days ago at $225 that I am going to return as soon as the package lands on my doorstep. Another one that I just bought last night at $189. I'm so excited!

I got one as well!
Cant wait to play!

Sucks, I ordered a refurb one yesterday for $225, I emailed them to see if I can get them to just refund the $35 as I don't have enough left on my paypal to buy a second one at $190 and just wait til I can send the other one back. Hopefully they still have them available in like a week so I can still get the savings.

I Have one for sale if anyone is interested check out my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151861

I'd look but it says I don't have permission. You can PM details if you'd like.

I just ordered one through this deal too, making it my first personal nook color and third one I'll be setting up with aftermarket firmware (Thinking CM as the honeycomb stuff is just too buggy for me).

Thanks, I just ordered one for my wife to give me for my birthday!

Yay 4 Juggs,
You still have your NC for sale? If yes, plz tell me more about it & your price via PM or email em at [email protected].. Thanks

If I remember correctly B&N also selling new NC with 50 dollar coupon. Do you think its worth to buy that or just buy the refurbished one?

Could you please post the source for the $50 coupon?
I personally would not hesitate one second to buy a new device @ $200 over a refurb for $190...

I know there is a sale for $25 off the NC new if you have a B&N membership but that's the only sale I found from days of searching.

I have been trying to source one too. The nook.co.uk site is useless as are the people who run the twitter, phone and live chats! I have spoken to one other guy who had to get one as his broke and he still ordered from the US as UK division couldn't get one!
It must be said I too didn't anticipate such an issue getting a cable! If I find anything I will post it here though

I found nothing, i think I might just get a backup from blackwells, then at least I will have one.

Blackwells look like they have good stock of Nook stuff. Good call, they are also selling the Nook HD+ and must be one of the last places in the UK who are still selling the Simple Touch for 30 quid. I got one and rooted it, perfect grey scale reader, (or in my case flight computer).

Hey, no second source in an asian shop for this?
I can't believe that our friends in China will miss the oportunity to earn some money with that...
Or is it possible to build this by myself? Is it just a passive part or does it contain electronics?

The official cable + wall socket is also now £15 direct from the UK nook store with free delivery
Nook International Power Kit

They were on sale at a local B&N for $15, so bought a backup. Came with a power supply as well.

Nope, this is a micro SD charger, not the 30 pin charger we need for the nook HD+
Specs say "Suitable for NOOK Wi-Fi, NOOK 3G +Wi-Fi, and NOOK Simple Touch and NOOK Simple Touch GlowLight"

Woops don't know how I missed that.
Though the HD+ charger is still £15 but comes with a US plug.

Yep! Quite glad too, always nice to have a spare. Now, if only the HDTV adapter was sold in the UK...!

Just ordered the international kit from Blackwells. £17.49 including postage for a USB cable is steep, but I'm not going down the path where my Nook won't charge because the first one broke and I can't source a spare because it's end of life.

Despite the picture on the site showing it comes with UK, EU and US adapters there is no US in the box. Not really a problem, just thought I would highlight this to other potential buyers.

With the latest round of price cuts a spare charger is now on £10 direct from the Nook site (ignore the picture they come with UK and EU plug adapters, not US)
http://uk.nook.com/accessories/universal-power-kit-in-asphalt/9780594515364
Also the cases are all £15

[Q] Nook+HD right time to buy?

Howdy folks,
I'm currently rather broke but sorely tempted by the newly price reduced nooks. I'll cut right to it:
Do you guys think they will come down further?
Would you endure several weeks of mac n cheeze to have yours?
Thanks for your insights!

yes. absolutely.

I'd expect it to drop by another 10%, but you could probably get that by buying second hand on eBay. (I did)

I paid $50 for mine (HD+) the other week when they were on super discount at office max

picked mine up from walmart for 179. even at this price its a steal.

Best buy and other places have them for $150. Some people have picked them up for ~$100.
I don't know if we will see another $99 fire sale like the hp touch pad

I'm tempted too...can anyone post a screenshot of how the zinio app looks like on this screen?
I want a tablet where I don't have to zoom in to read the texts in the magazine.

Zinio looks great. Text is a good size. Easy to rest if out have decent vision. Pictures look amazing.
I'm reading the car and driver mag with the new Corvette and I can zoom in and see lots of details

I got mine at B&N this weekend with the member 10% off coupon for the Nooks. It was also tax free as part of my state's back to school holiday. So, I ended up paying $161 total for a 32gb Nook HD+.

Got my 16GB at Best Buy last week for $150 with interest free financing. Can't beat that. A 9" tablet for $150?!?!? What the hell are you waiting for?

Buying in the UK

Hi all
I'm ready to bite the bullet and buy this watch.. What's the cheapest website it can be bought from in the UK? Preferably a site that someone has used and can recommend.
Thanks all
Chris

Got mine delivered today from mobilefun.co.uk the going rate is 199 and the delivery got muddled up with the click and collect service. Still i had that refunded, and they were apologetic so overall I'm happy. I have seen the same price starting to appear on other sites too.

They thought the click to collect was a home address, therefore needed verification. This delayed the order process. Was all resolved in the end.

Got mine from mobilefun too. Seems fine. Go for it

got mine during the black friday sales on amazon.fr for £161.
unfortunately, after receiving it, I noticed it has a cluster of dead pixels, so I asked for a replacement, which is arriving today.

Hi,
I am looking at buying this from Amazon.fr even though it is on order with Expansys, which I can cancel.
Are there any difficulties in buying this watch from France? Will the packaging, adapters and system updates differ to that in the UK?
Thanks,
Jason

Sector adapter diffrent in France. 2 round pin.

I went to Handtec.co.uk used them before for phones, paid 4.99 next day DPD, they cost around £10 more than cheapest 199 deals but their service is top notch. Got mine a few days ago and all I can say is you will love it.
Always on mode, I don't see the burn in some mention in other threads...
I tend to use black background faces, with bright marks & hands.
Watch looks amazing,
strap is crap, ordered a replacement from Ebay, make sure if you get a new strap it's 22mm wide & 3.0mm - 3.5mm thick at the watch head.

there are no difficulties with Amazon.fr. Have Prime myself and got the watch in about 3 days. The watch and accessories are the same except for the wall adapter, which is European (2 pin).
You can use any UK wall adapter however.

Just got mine from Mobile Fun - ordered Sun late night and got it this morning. Well impressed with the speed!
They're also on Quidco so you can get some cashback, and if you check Hot UK Deals, there's a voucher for free royal mail postage which while you can't actually use royal mail (have to pay for courier delivery due to the value), you at least get a couple of quid knocked off delivery

[Q] Samsung 50% off coupon?

People who received their T-Mobile S6s reported that once you connect to Samsung.com on your phone, you get a 50% off coupon emailed to you (according to this reddit post). Has anyone done this on their AT&T device? Just wondering if I can count on getting one myself.

Most of my recent Samsung purchases came with this, once you register the phone with Samsung you get an email that gives you 50% off any accessory.

I only got 30%. Feeling cheated. It was 50% for me last year.

I didn't get any email when I registered my phone sigh.

Yep I got 30% as well, and only for items under $59.99. I was thinking about getting the gear vr, but not now.

30% for me, I got the email instantly after signing up. This was my first android phone and first time singing up with Samsung account.

I registered my ATT GS6 and got a 30% coupon, however when I used it ordering 2 wireless chargers it applied it to both (30% off the total order). I was pleasantly supplied because the email is worded as if it only works on one item. Got 2 chargers for $70 and free shipping.
