| 1345749 | 2013-06-14 06:00:00 | Time to upgrade the HTC One V. Would like a Nexus 4 but that's not going to happen this time around. What's good at the moment? www.trademe.co.nz Finding that quite tempting, not for the 4g though. |

| 1345750 | 2013-06-14 07:18:00 | Why not? You can import the 8GB model for just on the $420 mark if you can stretch your budget a tiny bit? :) | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 1345751 | 2013-06-14 08:48:00 | www.fairbuy.co.nz Add in the $30 shipping charge, and you're a whole $2 under $400, but still under. |

| 1345752 | 2013-06-14 09:18:00 | You could pick up a Galaxy S3 for about that on Trademe. | DeSade (984) | ||
| 1345753 | 2013-06-14 12:22:00 | Wow I didn't realise the Nexus had come down that much in price. Do you know somewhere good to get it from, and a decent substitute charger? | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1345754 | 2013-06-14 21:46:00 | Yeah straight from Google Play store in the US, so you'd have to import it yourself. It's pretty damn easy to do and the 8GB model should easily land for around NZD$420 all up: 1) Setup Wallet using details from ship2u.co.nz 2) Order phone from Play Store US while using TunnelBear: www.tunnelbear.com 3) Wait a few days for it to show up at Ship2u, then pay NZD$20 to have it forwarded to your doorstep Done! :) Otherwise if you have $499, you can buy the 16GB local from The Warehouse Stationary, they have an *insane* deal going on until tomorrow!! |

| 1345755 | 2013-06-14 22:22:00 | Do you know somewhere good to get it from, and a decent substitute charger?Why do you need a substitute charger for the N4? It charges via a USB-power plug, so you just need an American-NZ plug adapter for a couple of $ and you are sorted. Or do what Chill did and take to the American style pins with a pair of plyers. I got myself a NZ power plug that also has two USB sockets - so I plug straight into that. |

| 1345756 | 2013-06-14 22:57:00 | Thanks heaps Chill - gives me something to think about. Jen - it was more about a decent charger. As there are a lot of not that great ones around, and using an adapter is annoying. Not a biggie though. :) | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1345757 | 2013-06-15 11:29:00 | The nexus 4 is on sale at Warehouse stationary right not but they maybe understocked. www.warehousestationery.co.nz |

| 1345758 | 2013-06-15 12:01:00 | Yeah I think that's only until tomorrow, but it's a bloody amazing deal for sure!! The standard charger is *fantastic*. Just bend the pins so it fits, works fine, charges fast, all good :D |
