PLS HELP

Can anyone tell me places in Delhi where Nexus 4 could be available in DELHI (in December:p)

Does anyone know any good shops that sell imported mobiles in Delhi

PLEASE HELP :confused:

one more advice to people running this thread why dont you start listing the various websites that are offering along with price and everytime someone finds a new deal you can add it to the list. It would be very helpful in deciding from where to buy.

The T-mobile version is NOT carrier locked. It is unlocked in the same way as the version sold through the Play Store: http://www.theverge.com/2012/10/29/3569540/google-nexus-4-preview-price-release-date
[Nexus 4 General] Mr.Oug:
I just hope to get my hand on any Nexus device
[Nexus 4 General] theserpent:
Any one buying this from USA?

If yes?

what will you do for the warranty :( i have the same dam problem
[Nexus 4 General] ImSherlocked:
Unlike galaxy nexus, at least you would get the nexus 4 parts and repaired it in India if they launch the phone in India.
[Nexus 4 General] Jay Ssj:
I am selling my gs3 and buying nexus 4 from usa. if s3 sells for 28k i still have 12k in my hand looolz

and btw forsure llg will be selling it in india, not google. And the price will be 28k+
[Nexus 4 General] fanaticprakash:
Yeah same problem for me, Even they release it in India we don't get it for this cheap by the way will they offer international warranty while we buy it in USA?? IS there any possibility???
[Nexus 4 General] theserpent:
Nop they wont the only Nexus with international warranty is NEXUS 7.

Can anyone confrim if nexus 4 is also having a intl warranty?

Do me a favor call up lg people and ask will they at least repair our nexus 4?
[Nexus 4 General] Mr.Oug:
I think when the nexus 7 releases here in india the nexus 4 will come along
[Nexus 4 General] dhruvmalik:
Why don't you call up LG yourself to obtain that information and share it with the community.

The below answer should be enough for you to get an idea.

And on that note, NO LG will not service your PHONE if the LG Nexus 4 is not officially available in India.

Secondly, EVEN IF IT IS, they have the discretion to not service your phone as the MODEL Number / Product Code will not match the Indian Product. Even though its the SAME PRODUCT, just the difference of the number, they could state, no your phone is not compatible with so and so part hence we cannot do it.

You may have to try to source a few LG Repair centers for them to take the request.

The likely hood for them to reject is minimal (IF the LG Nexus 4 is available in India).

P.S. I have 2 of them coming around end November . Here is the Logic behind it.

1) The cost of it may be 10 K higher in India. That 10 K gives you a warranty which will cover you from any Manufacturer Defects.

2) In case of any Manufacturer Defects, the Product will not be covered in India, and the likely hood of paying out of pocket for the repair will be close to the 10 K.

3) If its a damage to the phone caused, it wont be considered as a Warrantied Service and will be a out of pocket expense anyway.

4) In all cases, the 10 K will only cover you for the 1 year, in which time, you will most likely obtain another phone or be looking to sell this one off to get the NEXT Device.

5) IF you do get the LG Nexus 4 in India (Officially) at a estimated price of 30 K, any damage caused by you will not be covered anyway, in which case you may pay an extra 10 K for it. Which would make the cost of your device potentially 40 K. For that, you could have 2 devices (like I intend to).

So with all things considered, its wise at this price to obtain it without any warranty. Personally, I don't mind paying the extra 10 K or Higher for it, but at this moment, we also don't know IF and WHEN its coming with any certainty besides what Mr Amit Gujral from LG has stated.
[Nexus 4 General] Hrithan2020:
As told earlier, I had tried contacting the LG team over mail, and got the reply today that they don't have any information to share at present about Nexus 4's availability and price . Not surprising, but worth a try, I guess.

Anyone, has contacts in LG India? Wish it released for lower than 28k.. and soon!!
[Nexus 4 General] athani:
Is there some way all of us could import the phone in bulk. It'd save money on shipping, if nothing else.

I guess shipping will come to $10 per phone and customs duty will be 18.xx%.

If someone has a relative/friend in the US who could order, I'd certainly be interested.
[Nexus 4 General] Hrithan2020:
That's a nice idea. But, going by the normal means, I think even if one has a relative/friend, he is not allowed to mass-transport phones right? [ AFAIK, only personal use/gift, that too a max of 2? Correct me if I am wrong]. Would be interested in going for a GO, if it can be sourced though :)
[Nexus 4 General] Mr.Oug:
I think it will be available from timesdseal or some other websites
[Nexus 4 General] athani:
What I meant was that someone could order the phones in the US and courier them to India. Even if carried, we'd happily pay the customs duty so any number can be carried.

It's available on a site called negri. But it's $450! Plus $55 shipping. Plus customs. Too much. Would be similar with other sites. Big mark ups.
[Nexus 4 General] circleofomega:
Customs...those dirty f*cking hungry dogs at the gates of our country...never liked them, never will. Anyways, I am contacting my uncle in the US. I will be mostly getting it from the US. But the only catch is, if something goes wrong...im screwed...

I think the best bet is it wait and watch...
[Nexus 4 General] Mr.Oug:
I just edited my above post with some really bad news
[Nexus 4 General] _guzzler_:

[Nexus 4 General] anirudh412:
Gaffar Market in Karol Bagh is your best bet. Though, by December, there is good chance of the N4 being officially announced in India.

As for websites selling it, go through all the posts. People have listen FirangiBhai (or whatever they are called), eBay (relatively safer) and a couple of other sources (shady by the looks of it).
[Nexus 4 General] ashish2199:
I have gone to Gaffar market once , i saw only small shops selling Chinese mobiles and apple products. Ya buy december LG would also launch this phone but I dont think I will be able to buy if LG prices it above 27000 for 16 gb .

If you know any

reliable

shop in Delhi that sells such products then please let me know.

Reply would be appreciated
[Nexus 4 General] ImSherlocked:
Nexus 7 is not selling for double the price. If you buy from play store it will cost you $199 + $30 sales tax + $10 shipping = $239 = 13000

So they are selling at 7k premium. So 16-17k would have been a good pricing. And I believe 20k is MRP. Retailers would sell it much cheaper after a few weeks.

[Nexus 4 General] Sean-El:
Would it be easier for some of y'all if a member here bought one and sent it to you or used ebay for you? Or does it come out to the same? I wouldn't mind doing that for a few of y'all. We us people get so spoiled by all the phones that are released here we forget that they aren't released worlwide or are more expensive.
[Nexus 4 General] adil_:
So you live in USA and you want to buy a nexus 4 from play store and to us in india...??

[Nexus 4 General] anirudh412:
You weren't at the right Gaffar market then :p That place has all the phones. Try going after 1 in the afternoon. Wait a week or two after the N4 launches, a few phones should turn up there. Make sure you ask every shop though. You never know where you find one.

EDIT: By the way, how much do you think the phone will be sold for there if it retails for 21k here in the US? Expect prices to be around 25k at least initially.
[Nexus 4 General] _Behemoth:
That would be awesome Sean! Absolutely! I know I'd get 1 for myself and perhaps another for a friend. eBay sounds good. Let me know ok. :)
[Nexus 4 General] circleofomega:
Sorry to ask but I don't know how one pays on EBay? Is it like Flipkart or do u have to find your credit card details?

And can I pay on delivery? And what about the return policy? In case of damage I mean?

Sent from my XT910 using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
[Nexus 4 General] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Paypal, and if they don't accept paypal don't buy from them. There is usually not a POD option. Return policy is dictated by the seller. However, if there is damage or if the product doesn't meet description, eBay will help with a refund. That's why paypal is such a good option, if the seller screws you over, paypal will force a refund and take the money from the sellers account.

Hey Guys...

New to XDA...

I have been through almost all your 40 pages discussions and getting more n more excited abt the device as days pass..:laugh:

OK.. Here's are the Questions..

Suppose I tell my relative in the US to buy me Nexus 4 from the stores there (Nexus 4 16 GB $350 without contract) then once the phone reaches here... Will it directly start working once i put the SIM card in it..??? Or is there any unlocking procedure which has to be carried out in the US ...??

Also if my relative brings the phone and the others contents of the box separate then no import/excise duty right..???

Also in case the phone gets any problems here.. does Google provide International Warranty ??

Again i repeat the phone will be bought from the store and NOT with any contract..

Guys kindly help :confused:

Thanks bro... I've a friend in usa who is ready to buy it send it to me... but with shipping and customs, the price will be near 25k, which is near to ebay pricing... so I'm asking you..

Btw, what will be the customs charge?
[Nexus 4 General] AbhishekS:
No idea. Should be between 2-5 percent but I really am not sure.
[Nexus 4 General] adil_:
Well if its less than 5%, I'm ready pay... so please ask them to bring...
[Nexus 4 General] AbhishekS:
The thing is that if there are two pieces then customs have to be probably paid for both.
[Nexus 4 General] adil_:
As I said if its less than 5%, that is 1k for each device... then I'm ready to pay for both the devices...

Just they need to act that it's their phone and they are using it! Ask them to keep the bill at their home or hide it in such a manner that no1 can find it! Nothing ll happen dn!

Lol. I meant I would buy it for you and then use eBay or Paypal and you buy it from me. Would that be easier or the same?
[Nexus 4 General] rubenswing:
One pays using credit card/debit card on ebay...of if the seller has explicitly listed it as COD then its a different scenario all together. As far as the return policy is concerned the seller has listed a mobile number on, which is bangalore based... and he was very clear about the return policy, that if any type of defects are found within 15 days then the product has to be returned to them and they will arrange for a new mobile...if however they do not have a mobile with them, then they will expedite the matter to Google, and all the shipping and handling charges will be done by them.

And as far as the money part is concerned, ebay offers paisa pay protection which means once u have received the product after that u go on the paisa pay page and authorize the payment... only and only then will the payment be released to the seller. If u do not authorize the payment, the payment then will not be released, and then the process of refund will start.... the last time I purchased an alienware on ebay, the seller could not ship the item and hence the process of refund started and I was refunded the full amount within 7 days after the shipping deadline was crossed by the seller... In my opinion ebay is safe, I have purchased a lot of items through the site :)
