Shipped an on the truck
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
wow! awesome corey. you guys definitely rock.

keep up the good work!!!!!!!

i'm extremely impressed with how you guys handled.

my GNEX can't get here any sooner!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avelec:
Cannot contact Expansys?

Corey_L please help if you read this post. I placed an order monday morning with amex and got an email in the afternoon because amex rejected the payment (security reason). Got it straighten with amex. Trying to reply to the email but got returned and tried to call but no one answer the phone and the voicemail box is full. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
I've already responded to your PM. We Will re run it in the morning. All VM's were cleared this morning, but it fills up nonstop with people hanging up on it. :). What email did you send to?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BinaryTB:
FedEx pick up location confirmed, they're open until 9pm, bonus!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avelec:
Thanks Corey_L, Amex rep. said it should be ok. I replied to the email I received the notice (mpcs@mobileplanet.com); according to the instruction in the email. I also cc to first@expansys-usa.com. Do you need my ref order number? Please email me the tracking number if available after shipped tomorrow. Thank again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
for those of you who got in on yesterdays out-going shipment and have received it today, is your phone the yakju build???

some say if your box has the two samsung "do not tamper" stickers and not the clear stickers, it is a yakju build.

from the posts in the link below, it looks like most expansys orders are yakju build, but some have reported non-yakju builds.

enlighten us, as mine went out yesterday and should be arriving friday.

Your unit has the Samsung Sticker - and is from the UK. Thats all we have had in stock for quite a while now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] icecoldbong:
Hi Corey, I'm debating on ordering a Galaxy Nexus today or tomorrow. What are the chances it could get to me by friday? I'm leaving for the holidays on Saturday so debating on getting myself a gift.

Thanks,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
If you opt for NDA delivery, you should have it the next day. However, you should understand that FedEx, weather, etc., could cause disruption, so I say the quicker the better in terms of ordering.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oilfighter:
I ordered my from Expansys USA yesterday (Monday) morning, chose FedEx 2nd day for $16.xx. I'll be receiving my tomorrow (Wednesday)

My credit card did declined the transaction (fraud protection), but I called both the bank and expansys right away, so my phone was able to get shipped out yesterday. (I would give your bank a heads up, instead of having them decline the transaction)

Just some information for you to make your decision on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
+1. be patient with expansys guys. i'm sure they are swamped and they accomodate as best they can.

yes, most CC transactions (non paypal or amazon) will get flagged and declined. just call your CC to authorize.

not your fault or expansys fault. its actually no ones fault. your CC company is doing what they are supposed to do.

@corey, thanks for the clarification!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] koshadows:
And also note that if your shipping address is different from billing ya gotta call your company to let them make a note of it.

This phone is freaking amazing. Thanks for the support corey
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
+1 much better if your shipping matches your billing address.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackout203:
Received my order today from eXpansys. Haven't had to time to open it yet as I'm swamped with finals. Thanks again!

For anyone looking to buy an open-box version, eXpansys is selling them on eBay Open Box (various conditions) for $625 + $5 shipping - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Open-Box-Un...Cell_Phones&hash=item20c020a7e9#ht_1146wt_907
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ulver:
Ordered Sunday, shipped Monday, got it today! I'm so stoked. Sweet phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ianwood:
Got mine yesterday from Expansys and it is indeed a YAKJU build. I got the volume update notification almost right away. Box was sealed with the white DO NOT ACCEPT IF TAMPERED sticker on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrandMstrBud:
Thanks for the time, I'll have to check out Negri
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catire:
Has anyone ordered from expansys on amazon.com? how long do they take to ship? I just placed an order and used expedited shipping so I could get it before the 22nd, which is when I travel for the holidays.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
if you ordered through amazon, there should be no CC hiccups.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
Should be no problem with it going out today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrandMstrBud:
Any coupon codes or saving to help with the price of this thing? I just can't see paying over 700 for a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
fwiw I just spoke with a Newegg rep about the GN and they said that the phone does not come with a manufacturers warranty. How does the expansys warranty work? I'll flick back a few pages and see if I can find the answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackout203:
You get the warranty through them. So you call them, send phone to them, they handle warranty with Samsung and then send the phone back to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
If you use us, try 40OFFGNX
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catire:
No hiccups, order went through and says shipping soon.

Maybe amazon hasn't updated their order, been waiting all morning for it to tell me it shipped but it still says shipping soon :(

I'm probably just impatient but I don't want to wait till January to get my phone :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
If Amazon passed to us, it would have went. Your Amazon ref is?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oilfighter:
Got my GN from Exansys last night. It's SWEET!

Coming from LG G2x (4 inch display), dimension wise, it's not much bigger, but it looks huge. Still very pocket-able though.

I got a system update right as I turned the phone on, so it's all good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catire:
Just sent my info through a PM :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
when was that code available???

Pm sent
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] naerok:
about to place an overnight order, checking out through amazon only shows standard shipping - is this normal?

edit: pm'd order number
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xgoo:
I ordered on monday and got it yesterday. Apparently they did have some non-UK stock left over as I got a yakjuxw build with the NA plug USB adapter and extra spanish guide. It had a single clear "tamper resistant" sticker on the box.

No big deal and I had no issues before or after flashing to yakju.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
You got this from EXPANSYS? Please PM me or send me your ref. thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
sent another PM.;
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ccpotato:
i received the same from Negri XW build + NA plug + circular clear sticker.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xgoo:
Just for future reference, my sticker wasn't circular but a rectangle and literally has the words tamper resistant in red on it.

The baseband was already the same as in Google's build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
sent PM again corey.

thanks!:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
again, i wanted to post here to praise expansys-usa for their utmost professional customer service!

corey and staff are doing helluva job!

guys, don't be afraid to order from expansys-usa.

5 star service for sure!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hazzazi:
i just made my order from expansys and used the 40$ off.. i can't wait for it to come
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
just updating.

got my gnex.

FWIW, mine had the samsung "do not tamper" sticker on it.

and it is a yakju build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevo101:
does anyone know if there is anyone else other then Corey i can pm i had a question about my order and haven't heard back from him 2 days now. I dont know if he doesnt reply on weekends or takes him a few days to get back to you or what?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Noodles5666:
Really? He didn't answer you on the weekend? The company has business hours M-F if I'm not mistaken. Just sayin. Corey has been more than stellar. Let him have his days off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tuan209:
what is the usual turn around time from ordering and receiving the phone?

Is the phone shipped out from US?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
i'm on the west coast.

shipped monday and got here friday.

i chose free shipping....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
Ships out of Illinois

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

I've replied now. Check PMs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tuan209:
Corey,

I am trying to order on your site but it appears to be down.

Do you still offer free overnight?

T
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
No, we only did free overnight for some people who had their order delayed. we do free ground. Site is down due to a power outage at our server locations in Manchester UK at the moment. Technician is working on it. Should be up momentarily.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] verboten:
I love Expansys. I live right down the street from their Illinois warehouse. I called last Wednesday to order my Nexus and picked it up 10 Minutes later. Great people that work there. My only gripe is the time it take to get someone on the phone. Other than that, I have never been disappointed with my purchases from Expansys-USA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rizzxx7:
what's going on with their website? I've been trying to get on to track my order
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hazzazi:
same here, apparently they got a power outage.... but i PM's Corey already, and i'm waiting for a reply on my order status
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rizzxx7:
i just checked, its back on now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyijedi:
Just to confirm, does Expansys honor Samsung's 2 year warranty? I got my phone from Handtec, who I know does, but I have a friend who wants to order through Expansys (he'd rather order from within the U.S.).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
Did you have to pay an import tax going through handtec?

I'm debating between handtec and expansys; seeing a confirmation from handtec in writing that they will indeed honor the 2 year warranty (and it will work) would help decide.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyijedi:
Nope, no import tax for cell phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Any idea how good is Popular electronics, site looks as good as negri/expansys. They have this device for $660 - 15 coupon = $645 lowest price ever for this device!!!

popularelec dot com

$15 off with NEXUSPRIMEI9250
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
We honor the manufacturers warranty thru them, yes. Off the top of my head I am not sure if Samsung uses a 1 or 2 year warranty, so whatever the owners manual says is what you get. thanks, and hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyijedi:
Thank you, Corey. This is indeed very helpful. I appreciate the information.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
Thanks. Purchased and sent you PM with confirmation #.

EDIT: got your PM reply. Thanks. Hopefully I'll have this bad boy in my hands tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rizzxx7:
bought mine sunday afternoon and got delivered today, that's fast as hell
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
did you have to sign for it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rizzxx7:
No, he left it on my front porch but I know my fedex guy and I live in a pretty good neighborhood
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Does Expansys ship UK Galaxy Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
Yes ................
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
Just got tracking info - should have the phone by 3 tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tweezydak1d:
ordered mine today should have by friday!!!! cant freakin wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! downloaded everything i needed so i can get to unlocking and rooting right away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] naerok:
Just wanted to drop a few words on the quick service and prompt shipping experience. Ordered around noon on a Wednesday last week and arrived by 1pm the next day. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Expansys is cool. Still waiting on them to get accessories so i can buy from them for hooking up the stellar service.

Crazy world, ay?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greensnow:
hey Corey, thanks for all the support here on the forums. It's given me confidence in ordering from you guys

One question for you, I know you said you guys assist in warranty issues, but what about if say I crack my screen. Do you guys assist in me getting it repaired (paid for by me of course) since samsung only covers these GSM versions in the UK? Or would I have to go through a 3rd party insurance company?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyhigh2004:
I have already purchased and received mine from you guys Corey and I'm really curious as to this also? Specifically if we want to get this repaired by Samsung which only leaves Samsung UK, will you be able to do anything for us?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] and932:
Hi Corey,

I was wondering when the voucher that you gave will run until? I am currently out of the country until January 10th but would like to order with Expansys as long as the voucher is still valid.

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MisterEdF:
I just ordered from Expansys (late Thursday Night USA) with next day shipping.

Do they usually ship the same day the order is placed (in my case it would be Friday since I ordered late Thursday night)?

I was hoping for a Saturday Delivery option but don't see one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rizzxx7:
Mine got to me in two days with regular ground shipping
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MisterEdF:
It probably would have made it here as well (NJ) in 2 days but I am now phoneless so didn't want to take a chance. Was hoping for a SAT delivery option but didn't see one on their website.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
We can facilitate a repair by Samsung. BUT - it is worth noting.....

We send the unit to Samsung for a repair quote.

They say, it is $300 to fix the screen.

You say, that's way too much.

They say, well there is an $80 diagnostic fee on the quote.

You say, I'm not paying that.

They say...... Your phone is now the property of Samsung... Have a nice day. Goodbye.

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 PM ----------

Not quite sure, and the price could be cheaper by then. Just contact me when you get back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greensnow:
Thanks for the info Corey!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Reeebo:
Thanks for all the info here everyone! I'm still debating whether to get this phone from Expansys or negri... Negri seems to sell it for a lot cheaper ($640), but I really want the warranty coverage by Expansys for such an expensive phone x.x

It's great that someone from expansys is so proactive in helping its customers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
I have sent a mail regd the same to the mail ID given on the site, but never got a reply..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x.Orville.x:
Any new price on expansys negri have it for 639$ but they not have paypal on expansys are on 729 plus coupon about 680 plus shipping
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fescen9:
Just bought one...

I just bought one from Expansys using the 40OFFGNX voucher bringing the total with free shipping to $689.99
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mush03:
i need to upgrade from my nexus one

i wanna get this but the warranty is kinda iffy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
I think I am going to order from expansys tonight...

I am going to use the 40offgnx code + 4% cashback from Big Crumbs.

I also have some money in paypal that would otherwise be unused...

Expansys seems to have the best customer support. I also like the way they are willing to work with you regarding warranty claims.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greensnow:
Hey Corey, what are the chances that Expansys prices lower a bit to be competitive with Negri? Or is there a certain reason they're higher ($640 vs. $680)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Why don't you ask privately?. They might have more overhead having a branch in the US? Don't barter publicly unless you're asking for a coupon code or sale.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
+1.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
Just ordered! Corey, I PM'd you the reference number.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greensnow:
I'm not bartering, I'm asking a question about pricing in a thread about his company that would be relevant to anyone reading this thinking about buying from them
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Contradictory statement. And rude.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greensnow:
I was not contradictory or rude. Bartering is making a deal to trade one service or item for another, I'm not doing either. And what I asked was not rude in any way, its an honest question regarding pricing. I've thanked Corey multiple times on here and appreciate his support on these forums, which is why I'm ordering from his company
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericj83:
Got mine from Expansys. Awesome phone, I recommend everyone do the same
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjstang:
Are you guys still getting the yakju builds from expansys?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] androidDev064:
Good to bad to good!

Happily ordered on 24th hoping to get my first smartphone before 2011 ends, just to find out later that the price has been dropped elsewhere. Order was not processed until today due to holidays and I was trying to get hold of someone at Expansys to check if the price was reduced, got no response to emails or calls. Finally, created an account here just to PM Corey. Got a response within minutes and order has been shipped @ $689.99. Standard free shipping to Milwaukee.

They handle the warranty and shipping address is far closer compared to Negri's(LV), so hope the price difference is worth it. Also, got a new card last week which is giving me a $200 cashback for this purchase! :D

Thanks Corey!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
I ordered from Expansys yesterday with the two day shipping option.

Last night, I received an email from Expansys saying that my order had shipped. However, the FedEx tracking only shows "Shipment information sent to FedEx" and nothing about it actually being shipped. I emailed expansys around 6 hours ago and have yet to receive a reply...

I'm on vacation and need to have this by Friday... Not sure what to do...

Under the shipping section in their terms and conditions:

I ordered at 2 EST yesterday, so if I do not receive my shipment tomorrow I feel that I am entitled for a refund of the shipping charges...

What do you guys think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
I've responded to your PM also. I am not in the office this week, but It may have shipped after the FedEx pickup, or they missed scanning it. It is likely it was after FedEx came, so it is leaving today and will be delivered Friday.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
This is very common with shipping, when a shipping label is generated the shipment goes to shipped state. But the actual shipping happens when the package is deposited to the courier. So I would say you not worry and wait until end of day for your shipping status to change..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
If you believe you should not pay shipping, I will refund it. We are extremely busy with the Holidays. I will have our terms amended to reduce confusion. Sorry about that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
Thanks Corey! I cannot believe how quickly you replied!

Negri took 48 hours to respond to an email I sent them. You respond within minutes!

A+ for Expansys service! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foxehkins:
I really wish Nevada didn't have crazy tax or else I woukc have ordered one already. That's really the only thing holding me back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
Sorry for not reporting back sooner. I received my brand new GN from Expansys on time and in a sealed box. So far so good. Thanks Corey!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
They collect taxes on internet purchases? I know if the business is in the same state then all taxes apply.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foxehkins:
Yeah I guess. When it asks where I want to have it shipped I put my state and zip and then they add about 55 dollars.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] androidDev064:
Shipped at 5PM Tuesday and delivered 12:30PM Wednesday. Ha, how I don't regret not going with two day shipping. :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greensnow:
Expansys dropped prices to $689, the $40 coupon no longer works though. Once that price hits $650 I'll be all over it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Corey L:
Although the $40 one is no longer valid... 20OFFLS drops it to $669
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hitek714:
I've had nothing but a great experience with Expansys USA. My original handset was defective when it arrived at my door and Expansys did not heistate to replace it. I personally want to thank Corey L for all the help he has offered in these forums.

A+
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjstang:
Man I just ordered mine yesterday. Could have saved 20 bucks lol. Every little bit helps when you spend that much on a phone. Still psyched to get it though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
I used BigCrumbs.com which supposedly gives you 4% cash back on the purchase (two weeks after the purchase).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Can anybody confirm the big crumbs 4% cash back (or other cash backs) works with/without the coupons on eXpansys?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike2518:
Yes it does. I got it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
Awesome! How long did it take to appear?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Thanks mike. Did you use a coupon with your purchase? How long did it take for the cash back credit?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skyhigh2004:
Damn, I should a waited a few weeks lol.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
Just got my GN!

I am simply amazed! My screen appears to be as good as it gets. I have no extreme banding or graininess! It's miles better than my N1 screen.

I also got a yakju device!

Service from Expansys is top notch. It may be more expensive ordering from them, but the service is well worth it.

Thanks Corey!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Did anybody try check out using amazon from eXpansys? When I do, I see the full price of $689.99!! and I used coupon 20 off. And when I try pay pal it does not show how much is being charged to me!!! that does not look good..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the7thson:
I'm having the same problem, the discount code doesn't work when ordering through Amazon. How can I correct this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Probably have to call them. Or better yet email them because calling is waiting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the7thson:
It's been over 48 hours since I ordered, but the order still hasn't been processed yet :(

I was half expecting it to receive it by now based on reading the past few posts and exchanging PMs with Corey L.. Reference number is 1CPH-8C41-5EB0.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
Geez. Its a major holiday weekend.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dnlsmy:
Weird, I ordered today after 3PM CST and I just got a confirmation that it's shipped. I went with standard shipping and it totaled $729.99

Yeah, biggest impulse buy in my life, other than the Xbox Elite I bought with games and controllers for ~$500+:eek:

Shipped, delivery time 11/25/2011 by 3 pm.. Fedex Standard overnight.

Should work out nicely.. I'll be done with the black friday shopping business and be back home to wait for Fedex before they get there.
