In the US - Wheres The Best Place to Purchase an S2? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have looked around and I've seen the lowest for 519 Euros, which is roughly $740.
Are there any recommended sites that are reputable and cheap?

Take a look @ Clove - that's where I got mine. 440 pounds (456 shipped) which translates to roughly $740 as well.

Handtec also works and is a tad cheaper as well.

But I wish the dock was cheaper.
Case
O i'm down for the case I like that. Wish they had one line the ipad. I like my wife's case but it doesn't fit.
Which ipad case does she have?
I will have the first sample case tomorrow. UPS normally doesn't arrive till 5-6pm unfortunately.
Will post pictures as soon as I can!
They do have single piece lots as well at $89.47 at Aliexpress. The link is in the Top Products section at the bottom of the page in the link provided above.
Guys, I'm in China now, and I suspect the price is in CHINESE dollars.
You can find the same docks at taobao (chinese ebay type site), and they sell for 200 or 300 RMB, depending on seller. WHich is 30-40 USD I believe. 200 RMB is what I will spend on mine. As for cases, being in China suddenly has its advantages: I'll go to a fabric market to have a custom case made, from real leather I expect to pay no more than 200 RMB (a leather jacket is about 600+ RMB depending on what you want and how well you can negotiate...)
Yes, it's official price converted into U.S. dollars, not more than 45 dollars.
However, the delivery to over China no more than 12RMB, about 1.8 dollars. But delivery to the U.S. it takes about 35 dollars.
The same as the CASE..It's cost about 110RMB,real leather.

Looks like they have some pretty good prices on cases, but their shipping costs seem excessive:
$9.60 for Priority Mail from TX to NY, when the USPS website says $5.45 (or $5.34 paid online).

Yikes! That kind of off-sets any savings...
totally. Tried to order a 7 dollar screen protector, they want 17 dollar shipping.

Ship to where??
I think he meant 17 total with shipping. I was going to grab a screen protector for 7 bucks but shipping is 10.15 to Washington state. I wonder if their shipping is only this high because of the sale...
I had asked him about shipping (among other things) and this is why:
The shipping module is based of weight. So one or two cases / screen protectors ect all run about the same. I ship everything the next morning and everything goes priority 2/3 days. I could have opened it up for standard snail mail but since this is just a hobby for me I just kept it as simple as possible. I have a 'real' job and after a full days work I go home to stuff packages. If I made more shipping options it would just get crazy. It's usually only a couple dollars more than snail mail but most people love getting their toys quicker. That and the fact that I just provide such great customer service and take such time and detail in my emails with a quick response; you get what you pay for (sorry couldn't resist)

I did get a fast response, so he speaks the truth! So, just thought I'd throw this in for some additional information for y'alls.

Yea, steve is really awesome, and his shipping is super fast. He also gets new chinese import cases before anyone else in the states.

One would think that would include the processing costs packaging, the act of packaging and then getting it picked up (since they arent likely walking down to the USPS stop to drop it off).
They did have oe chargers..... oh well

Nope, it was 16.95 shipping plus the 6.96 bucks for the screen protector. ( Canadian dollar higher than the USA dollar atm)
I wanted to ship to Canada. It was only going via posts hipping should be no more than 6 bucks or so. Based on previous shipping costs.

Best Buy price increase??? ($229.99 from $179.99)

I mean, I've seen Best Buy prices go down, and down... But up???
What gives?
Good thing I got mine off of Craigslist for a mere $100 bucks so now it feels like I saved $129.99 plus taxes!
$230 is the regular price. It was just on sale for a while
Yup Yup, i saw that google drop the price to 180 for a breif period after the lg g r show . It was done to promote the upcoming R.
I thought it was gonna be fixed to $180 since the Moto360 seems to have caught up the lead on sales!
I presume it will go down again once the Round comes out.
... Or maybe not since the Round will be supposedly priced around $300~$350 dollars
Cheers!

Jackery Giant+ 100$ off

Hi,
This is not an accessory for the nexus 6 exclusive, but it seems like a very good deal: The Jackery Giant+ 12000mAh external battery is 100$ off on amazon.
Current prize: 29,99$
Normal price: 129,99$
Has anyone here made experiences with this device? Can you recommend it? Is it worth it?
Here the link to the product: http://amzn.to/1vxmTfk
That list price is ridiculous.... It's probably not even worth the $29

http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00BQ5KHJW - Anker 13,000 mAH battery bank - $29.99
http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00N2T7U90 - Anker 16,000 mAH battery bank - $39.99
So, uh, no... it is not worth the $29. Also, you should check out the price of that thing since it came out... it has been $40 for months now and was never higher than $70.

Why are so many people promoting this? Did they do a mass marketing campaign and pay people to do this? It sure seems like it... There are TONS of Battery banks that are the same size or bigger and even some from reputable manufactures that cost the same or less on the daily... (ANKER 13000mah 29.99 for example)

I read about this deal in AndroidPolice, but didn't know exactly if this was a good deal, that's why I asked.
And I thought the build quality of this battery is much higher then the Anker ones. Yeah, I have an Anker battery, but this one looks much better and premium.

All the Anker posts do get out of hand but I must say, for the cost and quality, they can't be beat. I would like to expand my knowledge of other brands though. What other brands do you recommend that have good battery quality at the same price point?

Have you had this battery? If yes, please write down your experiences, this is interesting for me.
Or at least explain why you would say that.
I don't like any product that has an artificially high price and then always sell it with deep discounts so you get a "good deal"

Sandisk ultra 200gb micro sd *$59.99*

Best buy, amazon have this card on sale right now. Retails for $249.99...that's a savings of $190.
In case any of you wanted to jump on that deal.
Same deal on amazon. Just ordered one

i was honeslty thinking about it, but with how slow both of my 128 gig cards wake, i def don't trust this one.
I'd get one but for adoptable storage
Damn they went up to $79.99 now! Still a good deal but I would have jumped right on it if I could get it for $60.

This was only the first price drop to 60. If we look at its price history, I think 60 will be the new standard price for it by summer (first sale to 80 around christmas, then dropped to 80 as standard mid feb) http://camelcamelcamel.com/SanDisk-...n=chrome_ext&utm_source=&utm_medium=camelizer
Note the 64 gb @ $20 is still a good deal, cheapest its been was $18
BTW, I love camel, price watches and price history is super important with saving money on amazon.
