Why ask why? I think we all know the answer. My guess is high return rate and/or poor sales. I bought at Costco and still have it though.

There was another thread about this a while back stating the high return rate was to blame for Costco no longer carrying this phone.

I was in Merced ca. Costco yesterday and they were selling the Nexus for 99.99 on an upgrade.
All of the Costco's here in Ca. still have the Nexus

Costco near me has them as well.

The guys at my Costco said that they weren't selling so they sold off their inventory and didn't order anymore.

I got mine last Friday. Due to reception issues I exchanged it for another one. It was only $99. Great deal for 32gbs.
Still have reception issues though.

I posted same thing couple weeks ago. I've had data issues constantly, and they stop selling because of that, consumers not happy, High return rate. only costco's that are in cetral valey have a few left over.
I've exchanged 3 so far and price kept dropping so I got some money back too...

Thanks to all. I guess I will wait for sg3, or a DROID max if it ever gets gb.

I would return the phone if you can. I just don't see Verizon doing anything about the issues with these phones.

How do cellphone returns work at Costco? Do they offer you a different phone provided you pay the price difference, if there is one? They can't just refund MSRP, I assume, because most of it is being covered by the upgrade.
