Well after the help from,the guys on the forum I think I will go the lg g2
Now can somebody let me if buying from a grey importer is ok and if so any recommendations ofthe best onto use or is it better to buy local
Thanks again to the guys who posted
LG G pro 2 is a better phone at pretty much the same price. I got myself a gray import on sale for $352.80 and everything was fine even came with 2 power to usb plugs for charging.

LG G Pro 2 D838 16GB Black $352.80
I would be cautious with the "LG G2 32GB +Screen Protector+Car Charger+Clear Case+Delivery from Aussie Seller" if you are after 4G capability. Looking over the auction it only says 3G next to Cellular Band which may be them covering their a$$. The D802 model is the official international model.
These guys are reporting getting 4g on the D800 USA model phone ( same one )

But yeah its a little strange
The size difference is huge.

It's like a Galaxy S4 vs a Galaxy Note 3.
If I was going for a G2 I would also go for a G Pro 2 instead, at the price.
In fact I would probably go to Aliexpress and get an LG Optimus G Pro (1st gen)!
Unfortunately I missed out on the pro deal as well. Any deals around for similar $350 price? Also looks like its not quad band 3g and won't support Telstra 3g bands. Major bummer for me.
I bought mine from expansys and I haven't had a problem with it. Search staticice for "D802" and that should give you an idea of cost from grey importers. BecexTech seems to have fairly reasonable prices and priority shipping.
