what sites are selling it to the USA? All the ones I have tried want UK addresses.

Just ordered from Clove http://www.clove.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-i9100-16gb they accepted my US address perfectly fine. I believe Handtec accepts order from the US too. http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/4203/samsung-galaxy-s-ii--16gb--sim-free-unlocked-

Hope this helps

sweet. Might pounce on one of these. A few questions first

1. Which site is more reliable? Has anyone ordered thru either?

2. How long does shipping usually take to the United states?

3. It says first units dispatched may 3rd? Does that mean if i place my order today it will ship that day? or will it be on backorder?

i'm from CA and i ordered from handtec. it was the cheapest out of all the sites i found. about 710 us.

Last time i check, about 2 days ago, they still had units left for preorder for shipping on the 3rd of may.

It takes 2-4 days to ship. Saw that on the website.

shipping cost about 14 pounds.

this store is a scam, there is a dedicated thread going for "buying in the USA" - use that one, has good info on imports and stores.

Why you asking so late? I can buy it for you and ship to you. How much you willing to pay me? (Email me is fine).
I preorderd from clove but it's possible they ship on may 6 !
I don't want to wait that long, I want to preorder another one from handtec.
It's my first time buying from them so I'm not sure handtec able to ship on may 3.
I can sell you the 2nd sealed s2 to you after I got it.

there's a fairly good discussion about clove and handtec here.. maybe it'll help you decide which to choose.

I've used Expansys a number of times both in the US and UK. They have online stores in numerous countries. They will have devices from the UK available in their US online store which you can buy in USD without paying VAT. They also have online support forums which I've found pretty useful in the past.
