I'm thinking of importing a Galaxy Nexus through Handtec.
Has anyone done this and what were the total additional fees paid? (7% + 14% + DHL Fee?)
 
Be warned the fees you get charged are unpredictable. Got a shock when I imported a Galaxy S2 and was charged much more than everyone else.
Allow up to 25% more than the price I think.
 
I saw on one of the other threads that if you use royal mail you sometimes "get away" with additional charges whereas DHL and Fedex have automatic inhouse clearing.
 
Just remember, your warranty is only applicable in country of purchase, if the phone breaks here you cannot taken to any Service Provider, you either have to send it back or have it repaired independently at your own cost.
No service provider will touch a grey import, they will not fix it for you even if you offer to pay for it.
 
there was a fella who used to be on here who did the nexus ones when they came out. i think his username was daliso or something. don't know if he is still around or even does it.

Think he's real name is daliso... Ugh I can't recall now. I know that I was gonna get the Nexus before this through him but opted for the i9000 instead.
