I live in Singapore and would like to buy the 4-1 cable for my new Dopod U1000. I looked at the Expansys page and discovered that it costs UKP13.x and the international shipment costs UKP22.x ... I really don't want to pay UKP22.x shipment for something that costs less... I am assuming HTC makes this cable as well in Taiwan. Can it be sourced there? I happen to be flying to Taipei on Monday for business. Thanks for your help.
MobilePlanet in US also carries it but its even worse :
Cable costs US$ 23.95
Shipping costs US$ 79.95
Please an Asian source???

maybe you can ask people in US or UK to buy it for you then post it to you
Only international shipping option on these sites are 3-4 day DHL etc and hence the price. Given all this hardware is made somewhere in Asia I can't believe there is no where I can source this item...
wu5262, with your close links to HTC, can you confirm whether this cable is made by them in Taiwan or OEM'med somewhere out of mainland China etc?
Thanks & Best Regards

I think too that 700 EUR is a good price. BTW, i am living in Romania and own an onlineshop for PDAs and other devices like that. Take a look at www.pdamobile.ro. There are plenty of options in there. the HTC TyTn is 699 EUR, so a bit cheaper than what you said. )
cheers,

I can sell HTC Kaiser's for 650 Euros if anyone is interested. I can ship it worldwide but you will have to pay for shipping and payment must be made via PayPal.

Unfortunately shipping to Europe/Romania would take us to the same price, 700 EUR. BTW, would you ask around and see how much a shipping to Romania would cost and would take (as time)?
thanks,

20 Euros. 10 business days maximum
It was sold in Luxemburg as a special offer for 399,00 € for one week now... I got it there, but they are sold out now
You're jocking
I'm living near luxembourg and i'm not know this veryyyy special offer
Where did you buy it ?
Expansys-USA.com, which doesn't charge tax in most states, now has the new Nexus devices up for pre-order.
Additionally, you can use MrRebates.com to get 2% cash-back.
Thanks for the heads up. But it doesn't tell me if they will charge me sales tax in California. If I don't know this then it's not worth pre-ordering through them. Can anyone tell me if they do based on past experience?

From the website:
1.5 Sales tax is also charged on all shipping charges for orders delivered in Illinois.

They don't charge you until you accept the cost once they get their shipment. No risk just pre-ordering and finding out if there's sales tax later
is there any benefit buying this from Expansys vs the Play store besides that you can pre order right now?
Looks like this is for the 8gb model, do they have pre-orders up for the 16gb model?

I ordered my Galaxy Nexus from them a few months ago. Wasn't charged tax or shipping to California on, at that time, a $400 purchase.

So no tax and free shipping correct?
How long did it take for you to get your phone from your previous order?
Very curious, as I might order from Expansys

I'm thinking of doing the same thing. Just weary of putting my bank info out there if I don't have to so I like to know its a sure thing before pre-ordering.
Also want to make sure this comes with a U.S. 1-year warranty from Google. I'm used to Expansys being the place you order foreign phones from and if anything goes wrong you have to ship them over to Europe or whatnot to get them fixed
What do you guys think about the price on Expansys? Will it be much bigger than 300usd compare to the Google Store? If not, I would order it from EU.

Yeah, my order came out to no tax and no charge for shipping.
Ordered it on a Thursday afternoon, was ready to ship by Saturday and got it 4 days later in a small box on my doorstep via FedEx Ground.
Great phone, but looking forward to the Nexus 4 and considering ordering it from them again to save on shipping/tax to California. Plus cash back is available at various sites.

Sounds Great, looks like I'll most likely be ordering from Expansys.
Just going to see what a few other pre-order sites have to offer.
none of the links work for expansys...
Product removed.
Wanted to order from there, they accept intl' ordering and credit cards... (I'm sending to the US)
Did anyone checked the price before it was removed?

What????
No matter where you buy the Nexus 5... you will be paying sales tax, unless you purchase it from a company that has no physical location in that state. Technically if you do buy something that doesn't charge you tax you're supposed to report that in your taxes at the end of the year.
K.... being a non us resident & planning to buy from US just wanted to know is there a way to buy @ quoted price!!!!

If you're a non-US resident you'll still need to pay import duty and any other relevant taxes for your country when you receive the item.

How much on average do these countries scam people for on a 349. Dollar device?

Depends on the country.
Here's a calculator:
http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-import-duty-and-tax-calculation/
If you're in the UK you don't pay customs duty on imported mobile phones but you need to pay VAT at 20%, so it works out that a $349 phone is $418, or £260, which is actually more than you'd pay for the phone in the UK.
where can i purchase online the phone china version no problem.
Yeah, couldn't find it on aliexpress.
Giztop.com has it listed
You will need to wait 3 weeks or 1 month or even more. The stock is limited they are currently locally selling the phones in batches every 4-7days and every time it's sold out.
Is Giztop even legit? I feel the list thing as in stock but ship it 1 month later. Also it's at an inflated cost right now being $100 more, I would wait a month
I've bought a phone from them before and purchased this from them. I'll see when it ships and arrives.
It looks like Alibaba is selling them. https://www.alibaba.com/trade/search?fsb=y&IndexArea=product_en&CatId=&SearchText=asus+rog+phone+2

Liaow is a trusted seller, I can confirm.

Hi,
I received it at my door 4 days after them getting the first stock (they use DHL Express). Usually full processing, shipping and getting through customs takes max 5 days.
I did of course get to pay customs tax, around 28 EUR (+-30 USD), I live in Barcelona.
It arrived in perfect condition and included a simple charging adapter.

ok thanks for your info, i live in Czech Republic so it will be similar
Liaow is $200 more than original price. it is quiet expensive without including shipment cost and customs.
giztop probably buys from JD and marks it up by $100
Even if you live overseas, you can purchase this mobile phone at the Chinese version of jingdong.com official store.
liaow wants $1150 shipped for the RoG Phone 2
I hope prices go down eventually. I am content with my OP7 Pro but would like something with better battery and no curved edges.
Something tells me it won't go down, blah.

is it reliable? the only chinese I buy from is Aliexpress, and sometimes the vendors are mean/tricky. i found this one:
https://item.jd.com/100006808184.html
But i m relying on google translate to understand the page... I m a bit worried about risk of not being able to communicate with the seller or so if anything happens... and there is no shipping cost?
Also i was reading the comments on the phone on JD and soo many complaints about defects in screens. it seems they are suffering from quality check ?
which makes me worried as Asus won't support tencent out of China...
And I tried to create an account and it requests to use phone number. I added my phone number but not receiving sms with the code. I guess they have the international code to my country wrong.
Thank you
