Samsung Galaxy Nexus Will Cost $289 and Include Accessory Pack at Costco

[dgstorm]

It looks like Costco is trying to be competitive with their Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus promotion. They will be offering the device for $289.99. The deal is still a bit better than just a ten dollar difference though, because it also includes a Costco Member Bonus Accessory Pack, although the details of that have not been released yet.

This is all thanks to a pic tip, (shown above), although it is so blurry it is nearly unreadable. Interestingly, the pic still shows the December 9th launch date, although current rumors peg that release date as having been postponed by Verizon yet again.

Hopefully this is the Car/Home dock accessory pack like the Bionic had.

the display model had a price of $289 attached that includes an accessory bundle. What was in the bundle? From what he saw in store, it’s not as eye-popping as some of the previous bundles we have seen and should get you a “leather pouch, car charger, and screen protectors.

Yeah, unfortunately their accessory bundle is usually just a no frills leather pouch, plastic covers, and a generic car charger.

They hit a home run with the bionic "accessory bundle". That must have cost them so profit so dont know if we will see that one again.

bummer, i was considering going to Costco if they had a super bundle like I had seen/heard about for the other phones. If thats all they're offering for the Nexus, I'll probably just get from the local VZW store

I'll be getting it at Costco regardless, most of the accessories were kinda lame although for the RAZR they did include the HD Dock and HDMI cord which was nice, no car dock though..

I really like how we call them docks. I always think of space crafts docking. mental image every single time.

To add to this, another member of the DF leadership team was just contacted by a trusted Costco insider who informed us that the phone will be $289 (which we pretty much already knew) on December 14th.

:biggrin:

Did you also get the portable charger? Considering the batteries on all 4G phones have been less than ideal, I thought this was a great addition to the bundle. I would have preferred the car dock over the HD Dock, but I guess we can't have everything. Regardless, I am just relieved that Costco is getting the Nexus because I am still strongly considering exchanging my Razr. I've enjoyed the Razr but the Nexus has always been the device I really want.

That's what my wife came home with for her Bionic, but it also had a mail in coupon for the car/home docks... Here's hoping for the same

so we do not know the contents of the bundle?
