G+_Austin Haakenson Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 How to get a Wind Mobile compatible (AWS - Unlocked) MOTO G in Toronto (or elswhere in Canada) for only $250 (8 GB version): (1) Go to www.reship.com and sign up for a US Shipping address for a one-time signup fee of $5. I have no affiliation with this service, but it has the advantage of being in Portland, Oregon, so you don’t pay any US sales tax. (2) Go to www.motorola.com and purchase an 8 GB US GSM version (VERY IMPORTANT – Select the US GSM version, as it is the one that supports AWS, compatible with Wind Mobile) for $179, and have it shipped to your reship.com address. Motorola currently has a promotion for free 2 day shipping, so with no sales tax, the total payable at this point is $179 USD. (3) Once you receive confirmation that your package has arrived at Reship, go online to your account and arrange to have it shipped to you in Canada for a $5 handling fee plus approximately $25 shipping fee (DHL to Toronto) plus approximately $25 HST. Total Cost (including initial signup fee): $5 Initial Sign-up fee $179 Cost of Phone $5 Reship Handling Fee $25 DHL Shipping Fee Portland to Toronto $25 HST -------------- $239 USD (~$250 CAD) So, you can have an unlocked AWS GSM MOTO G for only $24 more (after HST) than buying a locked non-AWS version from Telus/Koodo. Of course, you can pay the extra and get the 16 GB version if you wish. Enjoy your MOTO G. http://www.reship.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
