Canada pays VAT? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a question about purchasing this phone. I live in Canada. So if buy from UK (ex Clove), do I have to pay VAT or no? And will there be import tax? Thanks in advance.

If you're outside of the UK you don't pay VAT, but import tax varies from country to country.

You can use that site to find out the import tax for Canada

AMazing how the price went up on unlocked version...

And the ATT version is only $549!!
All of a sudden NewEgg has the International version for $800!!! I paid $649!
I may get this one to replace the wife's Captivate. She doesn't use much data. I have to have the Unlocked one for the $10 unlimited data plan as long as it lasts.
Buying the international version anywhere in the U.S. means it has no warranty. Clove has it for 395GBP ($615) delivered and it retains the 2-year global warranty since it was purchased in its country of intended sale. Expansys USA has it for $595 delivered and they provide warranty support by sending it to their UK branch for service should it need it.
Walmart has it in stores for $520 off contract.

If you want international version eBay is your best bet. They sell it around $550 with free shipping.

You can get an international SGS2 from an amazon reseller for $550, so it's not like $550 for the ATT version is amazing. I've seen it on Newegg for under $600, and right now Newegg also has the white version for $600. So tempting...

Yea really :/
Mine was 30EUR with a cheaper plan then I had on my X10, including a wireless headset.
I would consider it cheap for me
That's a very vague question to ask on an international forum...fill in your provider and country information, and try to be more specific...
also...
search is your friend!~

Wow, we must all now learn how to be psychic and guess where he is from.
92€ a simfree new xperia s
Here in Holland we get the phone for free with a contract, some people sell it straight away keeping their old phones. I got mine from someone like that for 320 euro, brand new without simlock

In the uk I got mine off mobiles .co.uk T-mobile but unlocked £17.33 with cashback and the phone was free.
I got 1.5gb data unlimited texts and 100 mins.
Would've liked a few more minutes but meh.

Sorry for the ambiguity, I'm in U.S. looking for an unlocked 3g/h+ android for at&t, and I think this is it. Just trying to see if there are deals I'm missing overseas as opposed to just buying it here on ebay for $6-700

The price is around 570 on ebay, and amazon.
You can also get it from expansys-usa for around 580 after coupon.
There are also couples of seller when you search it using google shopping, ranged from 530 to 550.
I would suggest you avoid Ebay at all costs when ordering this phone, because if you were to develop a problem with the device, you won't have a warranty as Sony doesn't recognize third-party sales.
Your best plan would be indeed to order it from an authorized retailer, in the rare case you end up with a screen problem.

[Q] Where to buy I9300 in Canada?

Not sure where I can buy the sealed unlocked phone legit in order to retain the Samsung warranty.
I had a friend who bought i9100 from a sketchy shop and he had to ship it to the UK for service as advised by Samsung US. Shipping cost him an arm and leg.
Help =(
Could buy direct from Samsung mate

I'm on the Samsung site now and there is no buy button on the S3 page, only a "Where to buy" one that is greyed out, doesn't go anywhere.
I'll sell you mine! I'm from Ontario. PM me if interested.

Dude. You're never gonna get Canadian warranty for i9300, sealed or not.
It's not sold by samsung Canada, therefore no Canadian warranty.
You want warranty, buy from Canadian providers i747m lte model. That's it.
Waiting for JKay mod on GT-I9300

You are not going to say that there is a difference between eastern or western Germany?

It's been a long long time since I've heard West Germany as opposed to Germany...

Don't know what you're insinuating was only thinking about the location just to have an idea how Google is sending the update.

[Q] Where to buy outright?

Hi Guys,
Canadian here looking to purchase the T-Mobile version outright as it supports AWS HSPA (something which has not been hacked / enabled on the other variants yet).
Anywhere in the US to purchase from that won't gouge too much on pricing. T-Mo sells for $580 outright but not sure if any locations will simply sell outright for this price.
Thanks
Stores will sell it outright for $610 plus tax
I wasn't able to get one from the store, so I bought one on eBay. It was a premium, but I had to do it if I wanted an HTC One because the 30 day return policy on my iPhone 5 was running out.
You can't find it in Amazon?

Yeah I don't think Amazon sells one that supports T-Mobile's bands.

I'm not even looking to use it on WIND. Simply wanting compatibility with my Roam Mobility SIM
i bought mine with T-Mobile on the phone. I got it in about a week. I paid about 633 with taxes and shipping. hope that helps
Brand new, unlocked T-Mo from Craigslist. $520 yesterday. Not reported stolen and works fine on ST AT&T/ and TMo $30 prepaid. 4G on both because it's Pentaband.
Go to a Wal-Mart site and you can buy one outright with no account
