    Any reviews of PPOBox.com or iShopInternational?

    So the duty charges shouldn't be different depending on the shipping service, be it Aramex, FedEx or anything else. If that's the case then I guess I'll stick to comgateway, they're saving me 26USD as taxes...

    Any reviews of PPOBox.com or iShopInternational?

    You have a better experience with Aramex with regards to duties? I don't want to pay 1k+ duty when it's not more than 4% i.e. around Rs 750. - - - Updated - - - I see. How do they handle customs and duties? Have the charges been reasonable?

    Any reviews of PPOBox.com or iShopInternational?

    Google didn't cancel it UPS cancelled it, because they confused PPOBox with POBox. They've removed 'PPOBox' from their address nonetheless, now it's something else. Yep I'm ordering via hopshopgo/comgateway. They seem to be the cheapest considering there are no taxes on the phone in Oregon.

    Urgent Help Regarding Buying a Nexus 4

    Probably because people don't keep in mind the 26USD taxes and PPOBox is cheaper if you don't look at them. Yes you'll get the tracking number when they actually ship it. Which will be 5-6 weeks according to the 16GB N4 website. You pay them when the phone reaches their warehouse in mumbai...

    Urgent Help Regarding Buying a Nexus 4

    One tip, PPOBox gives an address in New York, which will cost you some $25 extra as taxes when you buy from the Play store. Try comGateway, their address is in Oregon where no such tax will be levied. Overall they look like a much more professional company and they'll cost you...

    Any reviews of PPOBox.com or iShopInternational?

    Hmm they're quoting 10USD as shipping charges. Plus the 10USD for the account. They're not mentioning the customs/duties etc. though. Why do you say it'll be worth the money? Is it that much better than all these other services?

    SnS seems to have a $45 registration charge. It'll come out to be too expensive.

    I don't remember but I distinctly remember reading somewhere that Duties can come to be more than 2k. I'm not sure now though. Plus shipping cost from Google to the US plus US taxes. Do we have someone here who has ordered a phone via ICCWOrld?

    Google LG Nexus 4 Pre Order, 8GB - Rs.21728/- & 16GB - Rs.25490/-

    This sounds like an extremely good deal! I have one question though. The 6.8% tax is the tax on the Nexus4 in the US I presume? What about the custom duty and other such charges which happen during international shipping? Or are those covered with the 13.99USD shipping you mentioned? Please...
