Backordered Galaxy Nexus thread

So who else opted for the savings and braved the wait? Share where you bought it, for how much and your estimated delivery time.

I got mine for $ 174.99 at letstalk and the estimated wait time is one to two weeks.

I will wait a week at most, but will cancel after that

Same here although I also had to pay TX tax :-( I figure the $100+ savings is worth the wait as long as my OG hangs in there. Kinda bummed bc I woke up at 2am thinking if got my order in early would get one before stock ran out but either they had very limited stock or a ton of people doing the same thing. Oh well, at least this gives time for the case and screen protector to come in. Can't wait!!!!

Letstalk for 189 after taxes in Texas. I'm rolling with the OG Droid, complete with cracked screen, 2300 third party battery and no back door. It's ghettotastic.

Try going to Best Buy see if they will price match. They did for me. Then you can cancel your order with letstalk.

Add some duct tape to the mix and you'd be awesome.

Did you need a proof of purchase to get them to price match?

No I had canceled my order prior to going in, I didn't want to wait for who knows how long for letstalk to deliver. I brought up the price on my phone and they matched on the spot.

 

[chewy74]

I'm going to call bestbuy and see if they will price match if I bring in a receipt if they do I'm cancelling

just got off the phone with bestbuy and they don't do price matching with online stores. So the wait continues...

I called Best Buy earlier and was told the same thing. Radio Shack didn't have any in stock. However, Verizon actually BEAT the LetsTalk deal for me. I ended up calling in twice and got 2 different reps. The first rep said she could match the LT deal, but I would have to pay sales tax. I said I'd think about it and maybe call back. Second time I called in I got a different rep, and he ended up offering me a $100 credit on my account if I purchased the phone for $250. So, after taxes I'll end up paying $169 (phone is being charged to my next bill), and they're overnighting it for free. I canceled my LT order, and my phone should be here on Monday!

that's awesome. I called them and when they asked why I went with LT I said because they only charged $174.99 and she just tried to say I need to be careful and check LT warranty. After she went on for about 5 mins I gave up...

just tried calling vzw again hoping to get a cooperative rep, and was told my region wasn't running any promos. They also said vzw doesn't price match competitors prices so if I wanted the phone I'd have to get it at the upgrade price of 299.99

I called letstalk afterwards and rep said a shipment is in the 19th and those will ship overnight and arrive by Tue. So I nope I get it on Tue. The next shipment for those who don't get the 19th shipment is the 30th.

I was soo excited to get this phone so i got it for $264 on launch day, and i have to say i should have waited. Dont get me wrong, this phone is AMAZING, but i would have loved to save almost $100. Also, that gives developers 1-2 weeks to get roms and such out. I dont know about you guys but i love playing catch up under these circumstances. I get an awesome phone for a $100 off so i can get a nice ass case ans then i get to skim through a bunch of roms and threads and stuff about the phone : ) Thats just me though, im weird
