    My Mam just tried buy from USA but it said sold out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,055 ✭✭✭OmegaRed

    yup. really poor service. I know many people are trying to buy at the same time but the play store infrastructure obviously can't handle the traffic!

    Yes, you'd need someone to carry it home in hand luggage, shipping it is always a risk as customs will just pick a figure and add a paper fee.

    Thought that alright, I'll hang on for UK. Hoping they'll follow US with stock soon. Although if it's when I'm sleeping I'll set grand canal dock ablaze

    It now says, Google Play is currently experiencing very high traffic. Nexus 4 is not sold out and will still be available for purchase. Please try again shortly. Thank you for your patience.

    It wasn't supposed to be available in the UK, just the US?


  • Subscribers Posts: 32,868 ✭✭✭✭5starpool


    Google really making a fúck of this whole launch. I'd love to see figures of how many handsets where actually made available. They must really have lowballed the amount I'd say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 442 ✭✭Incompetent

    The nexus yes. They put the banner up saying they had stock in every country though (well the uk, us, germany anyway, so I assume every one).

    Using a US proxy, it's coming up as available to me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    My Mam has it in her cart but it's saying 4-5 weeks, that's too long, wanted it for xmas. Gonna give it a miss


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,813 ✭✭✭TPD


    Have the GFs head wrecked with this thing. She'll try again later and if thats no good then im fecked :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 darrenkenny


    Looks like they are still available at the moment in the US store.... From what I've heard it's just been too much demand on the web site rather than little stock today, so try again.

    Here's hoping the UK store gets some stock soon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58 ✭✭Walnutsink


    Just keep mashing the proceed button and it will work! Just worked for me there!! Lets hope it doesn't fall through now, won't be a happy bunny!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,189 ✭✭✭Dublinstiofán


    Im not buying one of these on principal at this stage, never seen such a ****-UP of a release.

    That means more for you guys, provided you have great patience.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,755 ✭✭✭tylerdurden94


    Ship the Nexus 4, cousin in Vegas finally got one after a few problems trying earlier in the day, sweet :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,813 ✭✭✭TPD


    Yup, the GF got one eventually. 2-3 weeks shipping, she's heading here on the 21st. Cutting it fine!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 173 ✭✭Not a person


    This is a unbelievably bad joke of a phone launch...I know its a good phone but is it worth the hassle.

    Just get the Galaxy s3.. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=galaxy+s3

    Only £80 more [cause there will be free shipping] .. and you get a better camera, SD card slot so can add 64GB memory to it. removable battery in case your away from power for a while. AND YOU CAN ORDER IT NOW AND HAVE IT IN A FEW DAYS!!


    Still considered the number one phone in the world. http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/20-best-mobile-phones-in-the-world-today-645440

    Nexus 4 is...fourth best phone at the moment!!

    I already have an S3 which I'll be selling, I just want the Nexus experience and updates straight from Google
