Hey Community,
I have moved on to a different phone and i wanted to give the people here an opportunity to possibly buy this phone from me for a reasonable price. Its an sim/cid unlocked cingular 8525 with the usual wear and tear that a phone gets.. its mostly had a screen protector on it so screen is in perfect shape, just a couple dings and whatnot on the rest of the phone.. i still have the box and all things that came with it including the software extra stylus etc. etc. i still have the receipt too if you would like that.. this phone is under a year old.. if anyone is interested please email me a reasonable offer.. i am not trying to get rich. I also do not smoke crack so please dont insult me with a 50 dollar offer.. I know what i paid for it and i also know what they are selling for on ebay.. i just want whats fair for both you and I . i am willing to trade however if someone has a blackberry(newer model, 8800, 8300, pearl [gsm only].
private message me only if you are serious about buying the phone
Thanks for your time
Abe

For reasons too dull to go into, i, or rather the company i work for, will be selling a few XDA's over the next few months - starting with about 20, but ultimately i'll have about 100 to get rid of, some II's, mostly IIi's, and a few IIs's.
The nick they're in varies from "scratched to buggery" to "brand new".
I have no idea what a fair price to put on them is - i was going to shift them on eBay, and just offer a "buy it now"price, depending on conition - say £50 for a working but ugly II to £150 for a shiny new IIs, still in its packaging - i can crack them, obv.
So, what's a sensible price that will get the company some money - thats my job after all, while still being reasonable considering what it is i'm actually selling -
Thanks
There are specialist companies who will liquidate your old phones but they pay silly low money eg about £20 per PDA style phone...
You need to complete the accessories bundle for as many of the good condition ones as you can and if you have any of the installation CD's perhaps copy them so all have one - a pdf of the manual is a good idea too. Use pictures of the actual item not a generic photo, unlock them using the tools on this site and maybe even throw in a PAYG sim - available cheaply on ebay, but above all be honest in the description of the unit. And test them all if you can. Note the seriels and if the warranty sticker intact before sending ( if not, apply your own)
Even faulty ones with smashed screens get £50 so your 'rough but working' should make at least £70 hopefully.
Hope this helps.

Thank you Richard - I should have mentioned i have all the accessories, though i'm perhaps 10% short on stylus's. I could easily offer two each of charger battery and case, if that would be an incentive.
Personally i'm a fairly well established eBayer, so i'll be inclined to use my own account rather than start a new one, and i wouldn't want to do anything that would merit negative feedback, so i'll be scrupulously honest -
if it would be in the spirit of the thing once i've decided a sensible price, i'll offer them here first less 10% or so
i've stuck a sort of "feeler" on eBay
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9715068209&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MESE:IT&rd=1
i KNOW the pictures are awful, but i'm assuming most people who would buy an XDA know what it looks like. Feedback appreciated as i'm REALLY good at buying on eBay but not so good at selling.
Too cheap? :lol:
Richard
flip!
it sold already!
i'm obviously not asking enough
Title says it all. Want a Qtek 9090, or the like. I have looked all over Ebay, and am just not willing to pay 500 dollars for one.
Can anyone help me out?
I have been lurking for a few days, and have searched all around looking to see if it was a NO NO to post want / Sale Adds in the main forum, but I see a few others in here. Sorry if I am stepping on any toes.
Thanks !!
€350 plus shipping from UK to USA, any good to you?
$300 + $20 (shipping)...how does it sound?
Details?
What phones, condition, age, extras?
Phone is in very good condition. I have used it very carefully for about 6 months. Never dropped it, no scratches, used with a screen protector from day one. I had bought it new from expansys, so comes with box and all accessories.
Let me know if you are interested and I can send you pics.
Yes please. I woudl like pics.
I'm selling my SX66, but it doesn't have a camera...
Hi,
I am just about to send off a few htc phones that I had lying about the house, it just occurred to me that I have custom roms on 3 of them.
The phones are fully working, turn on and off etc. and it doesn't mention anything about custom roms on their terms and conditions page but I was hoping someone might have the answer to this.
I can't really be bothered having to start searching for stock roms for each of the phones. I'm hoping I don't need to.
Thanks
it shouldn't make a difference but they might return it if its not stock.
Depending on what phones they are and how old they are you might get a better price if you sell them on here or ebay.
mazuma give really low prices.
they offered me £60 for a £110 brand new phone.
if they are old htcs and are in good condition there might be people on here that might be interested in them.
Hope this helps!
Or try Computer Exchange
I had a handful of old HTC phones (Hurricane, Hermes Virgin lobster tv) and Mazuma offered me just £35 for the lot
I had completely forgot about CEX as I hadn't seen them for years but I happened to stumble across one in Birmingham city center and they offered me £80 cash!! for the same phones and £105 for exchange!!
Dont bother with any of the ones on tv and if they are in good/mint condition and you still have the boxes, manuals, cables etc then you will get even more.
Someone posted that over 10,000 were sold yesterday. I always wondered about that site and how they could make any money, but figure this, if they made $10 a piece on each that is one incredible day for even many of the larger retailers.
I thought this was going to be great for the G tablet community with which it would make Viewsonic take notice and develop more for this product.
But what if many who bought were resellers jumping on a bargain (my bet). Still eventually if they sold it would still be good.
I always thought the Apple fanatics were really out there standing in lines to buy the latest until it was explained that many were buying to resell and sell higher than retail. Still dopes to pay but does explain more.
The thing is there's little to be made for any who plan to resell. These retail for $350 to $370 and after ebay, paypal, and shipping fees we're only looking at maybe a $20 to $30 profit. Plus with woot limiting the amount you can buy I really think most of the G-Tablets sold yesterday were to people genuinely interested in the product. Well, at least I was one.

I know that our customer support group purchased quite a few of these yesterday .
I had been prodding them toward getting these as our mobile platform for a while, was super happy they came up on woot
I agree that most who got woot deals yesterday were buying for home use and not re-sell. People have been seeing the Gtab, and even through all the exxcitment of the xoom, interest in it was picking up. This just goes to show people are smarter with their money than given credit for and it gives a clear message that we are not willing to pay 6 to 8 hundred dollars for hype and a carrier contract.
I bought mine for personal use. I've been on the fence and could not pass up this deal.
I honestly had my heart set on the iPad 2 pre release, but then once I saw it didn't have retina and the price was still relatively expensive (for a 32gb 3G), I figured I might as well save my money. Once the woot deal came on, I did some research and stumbled across this community, and how couldn't I buy the product for just $280? I just signed up to this forum this week and I'm already addicted reading up on how everyone is modding their gTab. Thanks in advance to all the mods who will make my experience a pleasant one..
Bought mine for personal use as well. Been on the fence for a while over a tablet saw the woot, liked the price and after some research here and elsewhere decided with some fairly simple tweaks this would fit all my needs in a tablet.
Bought mine for personal use and work. Part of my job is providing support for my company's mobile apps, and it is much more convenient to have my own than dig up where the company hardware is hiding. I also have a toddler and we are going on a 4 hr plane trip next month, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity for an electronic babysitter for the trip at this price. (There may be toddler/mom deathmatches over who gets to use it as both of us are geeks)
Bought mine for personal use yesterday too.
I can't wait
Hi purchased the nook color when it was 200 bucks for ebay. and i love it.
It is used at my restaurant as digital photo album / menu
the face that you can grab it with one hand and do demonstrations with it is awesome.
But it is lacking in some ways.
Purchased the gtab for personal use, front facing camera etc. I dont know how usable it will be, but I am hoping the dual core processor helps things out more.
honestly loading webpages on the NC with dolphin or skyfire was ok. but not great, and it definitely could not unseat my netbook that i also carry around with me wherever i go.
I think 285 bucks delivered for a dual core tablet with these specs and the best user group community on the planet (XDA) which has always helped me with my droid1, fascinate (for a friend) nook color, and now gtab... is a super steal. to borrow the words of another forum post: Lucky mofos.

So was I! This is going to be my first foray into tablet computing. At such a low price with real hardware, this going to let me get my feet wet, and if I hate it, i'm sure i can sell it at just a slight loss. Hoping I love it though!
Was in for one as well, though I'd just grabbed a Nook Color (just before that eBay deal); was impressed with how much more usable the larger screen was, and how much it felt like I was trying to work with a postage stamp when I swapped back to my G2.
Then this came up, and couldn't resist long enough for them to sell out.
Actually ended up sucking a few friends in as well..
I had no idea the makers of my TV made a tablet. I jumped on this when I read the specs. Hopefully Woot doesn't take more than a month for this thing to ship out.
to good a deal to pass up....needed a new toy to play with
I just picked up the NC a few days ago. I never even heard of the gtab until it popped up on woot. I've returned my NC.. the hardware on the gtab for the price can't be beat.
Just watch ebay. Yesterday there was one gTab listed with 7 days left current price of like $180. I think there will be lost on there and the price will end up falling on ebay and people wont be able to sell them for much (if any) more then they bought them for.
I plan on keeping mine. Bought it for personal use. Wanted a galaxy tab, but didn't want a contract or to spend 400-500.
I can survive a $280 fight with my wife, not a $500 one.
Good deal, bought for personal use also.

One closed yesterday around $315 after paypal and ebay fees you'd lose a bit of money on the deal. Personally I bought one for me, just wnated to see ebay pricing in case I didn't like it.
Given that only about 3% of purchasers purchased 3 at once I doubt that very many were purchased for resale.
same with me, you took the words right out of my mouth
Hi, sorry if this has been posted before but I couldn't find anything useful.
I have this person who have a cerebral palsy wanting a new phone. He had a phone before (SG5) but that now broke because he dropped it so many times and he's stuck with 24 months contracts. Finally today his contract is due for upgrade but we're thinking of not renew/upgrade contract but wanting to buy the handset outright but to keep the sim card going.
Phone needs to be rugged/strong (like The DeWALT Phone? but it's 5" - bit of struggle to type).
Screen Size : If possible, big screen? So he can type/send text message. (i like this idea something like Xiaomi Mi MIX 6.4 inch)
Budget : happy to spend around £500 ish but willing to pay more if phone is worth the money spend but not too expensive obviously (i.e. over £1000)
Screen need to be strong (will consider applying screen protector as well) - Gorilla Glass?
Ample of covers available, to protect the phone itself and need to be available in the UK as well (amazon/mobilefun/etc..)
What he use the phone for? - Well, he like to play most games, especially pokemon go(!), want to start using video phone and texting to families/friends, so it's pretty much all round.
Also, one other thing, can you send text (sms) using tablet if it has SIM compatible on tablet? as it would be nice to have 7" Tablet as I have seen 1 or 2 floating online but unsure if it works with sms.
Please state weather the phone (or tablet) is available to buy now or on pre-order as we're looking to purchase ASAP.
Many thanks
Have a nice day
