Nexus One's pricing for international shipping
As the Google Nexus One becomes official, I have to state that the pricing we previously mentioned is not entirely true. There's no additional fee to be added (from Google) to get Nexus One to residents of United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and Singapore, yet there will be countries' local taxes, duties, etc. to be paid, plus shipping fee using DHL International.
Okay, only three countries for now but we will soon hear more countries to be on the list, as Vodafone will begin selling Nexus One for Europe this spring. Anyway, here's the official pricing of international shipping for those countries:
- Nexus One Phone $529.99
- AC Adaptor $19.99
- Shipping (DHL International) $29.65
- Hong Kong: no VAT or GST!
- Singapore: 7% Goods and Services Tax on the Cost, Insurance & Freight
- United Kingdom: 17.5% VAT on the total cost of order including all shipping costs and insurance
In total, at least around US$580 or HK$4500 (for Hong Kong) needed to get this device delivered to your home.
