Mass Order for Nexus 4 8GB and 16GB

Hello guys! I am Max and I would be doing a mass order for the Nexus 4.

Due to guidelines by the Singapore Custom (ICA), the maximum number of order for the Nexus 4 will be capped at 13 sets. This is due to the fact that the Nexus 4 has yet to be approved by IDA for use in Singapore and the custom reserves the rights to retain the item if there’s any implication that it is meant for resale in Singapore.

This is the cost of the item (Assume rate 1 US dollar = 1.25 SG dollar):

8GB Nexus 4 Cost

US$299 (Nexus 4) + US$13.99 (Delivery to USA address) = US$312.99
US$312.99 x 1.25 = S$391.23
S$391.23 + S$20 (Delivery to SGP) = S$411.23
S$411.23 x 1.07 (GST 7%) = S$440.02

Service charge

Total price for 8GB Nexus 4 = S$488



16GB Nexus 4 Cost

US$349 (Nexus 4) + US$13.99 (Delivery to USA address) = US$362.99
US$362.99 x 1.25 = S$453.74
S$453.74 + S$20 (Delivery to SGP) = S$473.74
S$473.74 x 1.07 (GST 7%) = S$506.90

Service charge +~S$80 (Fixed)


Total price for 16GB Nexus 4 = S$558


FIRST 5 buyers will be entitled for a FREE screen protector.


The price of the Nexus 4 for the 8GB model would be S$488 and for the 16GB model would be S$558.


As you may note, I have been very transparent about my price and profit which I hope that you will appreciate it and well… buy from me. :D


Do note that the shipping charges to Singapore cannot be lower as it has to be shipped in different packages by different courier companies. The custom does do spot checks to ensure that the item not imported to Singapore for resale hence this is done to ensure safety.

If you would like to order, kindly drop me a PM or email me at max_maniac@ymail.com

Alternatively, you may drop me a text message at nine71one (3) 9five3.

For all orders please take note:
TO secure the item, there’s a need to place a deposit of 50% of item price. Please deposit the amount into either my POSB Savings or OCBC Current account.


While extra precautions such as

1. Use of different accessing method to purchase the item
2. Use of different payment methods
3. Shipment to different proxies
4. Delivery by different couriers etc

will be taken to ensure to ship the Nexus 4 safely into Singapore, should any unexpected problem occurs and I am not able to deliver the item, I will contact you personally to refund your money.


That’s all, thanks for reading.


PS: if you need a Google US$249 chromebook or Nexus 10 or Nexus 7 with 3G, please contact me for rates.

not to splash water to anybody doing MO...but i think it's better to buy it for yourself...the idea of getting a google nexus 4 is so that you can get an affordable unlocked high-end phone..

some of the MO's price for the 16gb (SGD600) just borderline on ridiculous.......i assure you ppl that if you are more daring and try to import yourself.....the price total is more near the high SGD400 or low SGD500....

also, the idea of asking hardware warranty can be thrown out the window as you are import a device...if LG can honour international warranty (like ASUS), then great...if not, doesn't matter...that's the caveat of doing international import. Deal with it and don't be a pu55y of worrying what if your device is lost, malfunctioned, etc. If you wanna import, that's the risk that you HAVE to take and nobody is gonna to babysit you through that.

The idea of importing and getting the device first from US is only for Tech Enthusiasts. Don't get 'caught in the hype' and buy stuff without knowing what you want and regret later.

Some may not like my tone but i feel too many ppl are getting 'caught in the hype' without knowing what you are buying. Do you research well and understand before you commit.

Peace.

Yes, lordlad0 is right. Prospective buyers do take note that the Nexus 4 does not come with warranty as it is an export set. And really, if you can buy the item yourselves why not? You do save at least S$70.

Thanks. Corrected my typo. The rate is still the same actually as I multiplied by 1.07 instead of 1.25.

Correction. Nexus 4 does come with warranty and it is NOT an export set.

Any issue/problem with Nexus 4, you can always send back to US for servicing/repair with warranty period.

u shouldn't charge everyone US$13.99 local delivery charge since you are shipping in bulk....if you are shipping all of the nexus 4 in one shipping....that should be only one 13.99 divided by the amount of phones you are shipping....that's the amount you should charge them..

unless you are telling me you are shipping all the phones separately then i rest my case.

Wah... Competition...

Let's go into price war.

Refer to my post for the reduced price.

Competition is good... At least your pricing is now more competitive =:p

Good luck to your MO :D
