Where to buy from in UK? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'd like to rush out tomorrow and buy one but my local shops in the East Midlands don't even think this phone is released until mid may.
Anyone know of any shops that are selling it? Even the Sony site says its preorder only still.
Thanks
Joe

I honestly don't think there's going to be anything in the shops until early to mid May and that any stock there is will be for contract only.
I would love to be proved wrong though.

Unfortunately, no where will have them til at least the 1st of May.
This was confirmed by Sony, and also the Sony center that i went to in Bristol.
Hope that this helps

Went into a local CPW this morning and was told that stock is limited but if I order today I can have it ordered to the store Tuesday

I looked at that but it's for contracts only by the look of it. No handset only price.

Amazon (Comes with £50 amazon voucher as well) - £549.95 for the white version

frys electronics to sell gNOTE @129.00

i was told that frys electronics (san marcos ca.) is going to have the gNOTE on sale for 129.00 tomorrow. Only thing is that store only has 3 in stock.
EDIT: price is 229.00
wow only 3
Lucky you. In my area it retails for $750
Good catch, very interesting hopefully this a domino effect.
Sounds too good to be true, they might be flawed phones or something..
Fry's is notorious for flawed advertising......... either way hope you get one...
Ill be sniping online add come midnight if so ill be price matching at best buy or possable drive 30 to nearest fry's if it for all or most stores.
Hope its for ALL customers not just new this or new that
UPDATE!!! I just looked up Fry's add online and its showing the new one for this week (25th-I believe the 29th) price is showing for $229 not $129!

I'm in oceanside. I might think of picking one up but if there are only 3, I guess my chances are slim to none.

Anyone else recon this yet???

Lets see and hope.
Maxx is more or less the same as Razr plus larger battery.
So i dont think larger battery and demand of phone, should drive the price so high.
When S3 comes out and some other phones (panasonic, sony etc) the price should go down..

No. Euros. With no VAT included. There was 26euros worth of courier included.
ok so what's the point of telling a price with VAT no included? Cause it's about the same as the 600€ told before (VAT included)..

I just want to clarify....The phones being sold from these websites are unlocked correct? So I can just plug in a SIM from a service provider and be good to go, correct?
I currently live in the U.S. but will be living in the Netherlands starting this summer so I am trying to pick out a phone.
I can't post links yet but here is the expansys RAZR listing with the w w w missing

good luck with that. Bestbuy just told me on thursday that they are no longer price matching phones. Wouldn't price match for amazon wireless price. Said it came from corporate office.
Post here if you succeed.
That is weird. Best Buy price matched the amazon $149.99 price last week when we bought them. Also Endadget posted today that Best Buy was going to match online retailers permanently. The article specifically mentions Best Buy Mobile and cell phones, and even mentions price matching Amazon.

From what I read online, they will only pricematch online-only pricing if you buy from their online front. But when I was in store just this evening, they told me they dont really care and pricematch everyone.I got them to pricematch Dell.com and then at the register the guy hooked me up (probably since we talked about rooting for ages) and punched 99.99 in. The manager came over, didnt question a thing, and I got my Verizon Note 2 for $108 lol. Time to load up on accessories!

Good catch. I admit, I just glanced over it.
I go to Best Buy a few times a week. And they always do a great job of price matching. I havent gotten push back on it in a long time. I actually prefer shopping there because of their price matching, especially up to 60 days after purchase!

No indication on how long the price will remain, but Samsung phones have been all weird lately at Sam's Club. I've been watching the GS3 fluctuate from $200 down to 96 cents (Black Friday), up to $150 and now at $99 all within 2 months.
Debating myself to get another one of these and selling it, but not sure if that's a crazy thought.
If you have guys have any questions on Sam's Club lemme know, I've been working at a club's kiosk for 7 months now.

And they only tax you on the sales price 98.88 not 699 whatever.
If anything the sale will last for another week unless it changes today. Most stores received over 20 notes. There was no advertising.

Also anytime you are dealing with commission there are also chargebacks. So no you arent making the salesman any commission. But if their chargebacks are abnormally high you could be getting them in trouble.

You can get it even cheaper if you have a Sam's club near by. I got one for my wife last night with a price match from Sam's for $98.88 and then the $50 Best Buy gift card on top of that.
My best but said they don't honor online prices for cell phones upgrades. Said it came from corporate. Glad for those that got it. Remember getting my rezound for a penny

Actually... the new Price match you speak of was started March 3rd, and phones (on contract) are not included in the price match.

With some discounts applied, some employers/schools have it waived.
I Did the same thing!
Got my Note 2 about little over 2 weeks ago for 189. PLUS got a $50 gift card that I applied towards the cost and end result was 149 bucks after tax.
What a great way to get a phone now though.. I used to always get my phones from Amazonwireless. But now that Best Buy Price Matches.. Ill be staying local till they quit doing it.

I've got a white one on order from them, been waiting a week now so expecting delivery any day.
If you look at their shipping info, they ship from their global warehouse to their UK warehouse and then onto you, but it does take a week or more.
You can pay by paypal so should be safe.
