Not too long ago we said that chromecast It had already become one of Amazon's best-selling products, surpassing even the Kindle. However, it is not yet for sale in Spain, although it can be obtained very easily for only 45 euros. The official sale of Google in Spain could reach 41 euros. This purchase can be a good option.
If you are one of those who want to buy a Chromecast and do not want to wait for it to be officially launched in Spain, probably the price difference between waiting for an official launch and buying it right now is not going to be too noticeable. The price of Chromecast in the American Google store is 35 dollars, which at the current exchange rate is approximately 26 euros. The price of the current distributor that sells it in Spain through Amazon.com, is approximately 42 euros, with a shipment of three euros, which leaves a final price of 45 euros for the purchase and shipment of Chromecast. That is, for 19 euros more we would already have chromecast at home without having to wait for its official launch in Spain.
The distributor is Eurotronics, and it sells the new Google product on Amazon.com. Its price is much more affordable than that of Chromecast through other distributors in Spain, which are around 60 euros. If we take into account that Google could still take longer to launch in Spain, the option to buy it for 45 euros does not seem so bad either. Of course, the new Nexus 10 could be launched before the end of the year, Google is hired in Europe who will be mainly dedicated to Chromecast, and we cannot even rule out the launch of this before the end of the current year 2013.
How much will it cost in Spain?
The truth is that analyzing what the final price of the Google Chromecast would be when it is launched in Spain, we can seriously consider acquiring the new Chromecast through Amazon Spain that is already available. It is true that the price of the Chromecast in the United States is 35 dollars, but that does not mean that in our country it will cost 26 euros. If we take as a reference the prices that technology product launches in Spain usually have with respect to the prices of the same in the United States, in which the only thing that is done is to change the word "dollars" for "euros" without modifying the amount, then we can count on that the price of the Chromecast in Spain could be 35 euros.
But there is still more, and that is that Google sends with shipping cost. The purchase of the Nexus 5 involved the payment of a shipment of eight euros. The purchase of a cover for the Nexus 7 involves the payment of a shipment of six euros. Suppose that the same amount is the one they charge us for sending the Chromecast. We would be talking about 35 euros for the payment of the device itself plus the six euros for shipping, with a total of 41 euros. That is, waiting for an official launch by Google would leave a final account of 41 euros, or something more in case the shipment was more expensive.
Buying it right now through Amazon Spain would cost 45 euros, a difference that anyone would classify as negligible if we take into account the time we would save buying right now and not waiting for Google to announce an official launch in our country, which, by the way, still it is not very clear, and it could not take place, although it would be somewhat surprising. Either way, paying 45 euros for Chromecast does not seem like something
