$900, eBay. There's already a thread about this with the exact same title in the exact same section. Why don't you search before creating a duplicate?

Lol seriously. I wouldn't it do it either. I'm just going to wait for the subsidized price by ATT, then it'll definitely be worth it.

Rofl. At least there is one sane person in this subsection (IMO)

Make that 3, aint no freakin way im paying 1g for any phone, I dont care if it wipes my butt for me and calls me daddy.
Im waiting for my 6800 to really take a dump or accidentally get coughranoverbymytruckcough and then exchange it and pay the balance or something like that. To shell out that kind of money, albeit for a gnarly phone is just way out of line.

$1078 in the US at smart-mobile-gadgets.com

£524.99 in the uk from ebay, company and ebay store called cdsolutions. cant believe i got it already! well worth it.

€71, but it comes with a 2 years' Vodafone contract.

Sure...but how much will that contact cost >.> Over a period of two years...it will be WAY more then the initial price. But I guess we'll have a plan anyways so why not be stuck in a contract. =( Guess I'll be getting this next year. I'm really young anyways rofl (only 15 haha)

I gave up boozin', womanizing, sniffing glue, and my Chevy Suburban to get mine. Just the $1500 a month I'm saving on Petro alone made it affordable!

Depends on the company you're ordering from, usually you don't have to pay VAT for export phones. But you'll still have to pay the 7% gst at the customs if you declare it to be more than 400 sgd.
You intending to get one from where?

Was thinking of getting one either from the UK or expansys HK. Emailed expansys HK last week and the staff said that even though its not on the website yet, its available for pre-order and stock should be in by tomorrow (18/08/2008) its going for HK$7000. Shipping will be another HK$150 to Singapore. Are you from Singapore too?

You guys are also impatient lawl. Those of you in the US, can get a AT&T Fuze soon enough for about $550/$650 w/o contract.

Kaiser For Sale!!!

just got my Kaiser (AT&T Tilt) less than a month ago. works great, it's just not for me. my Krzr just works better for me and i'm much more comfortable with it. i live in the Bay Area in CA and would love to sell it to a fellow ROM flasher before i go to e-bay. i can provide pics if need be but i honestly barely used it. it maybe has 90 mins of talk time on it and 20 mins of internet usage before i decided it wasn't for me. i flashed back to the Original AT&T ROM and reverted to original Radio and SPL so it's back to OUT-OF-BOX stock. have the Original CD and of course manuals and USB cable. buyer pays for shipping and i will ship same day of sale if possible.
P.S.
sorry if this post does not belong here but as stated above, i can EASILY sell on e-bay so i figured i'd give first crack to you guys/gals.
P.S.S.
also just an FYI, no SIM card included. you need your own.
PM me for questions, etc.
$200
Give me you PayPal address or how you'd like me to pay you.
whats the asking price
i wanna know did u add any apps to the phone if so what r they cause i also have the tilt but converted for t mobile and i love it and if i but how soon can i get it am mario my number is 1 267 516 4422
djhitcity, i would edit my post and remove my phone number if i were you
no apps added. i messed around with a few ROMS and apps but flashed it to stock to sell. as for $200...search e-bay and see how much even a used Tilt is going for...sorry bro give me a FAIR offer...

not sure why it's "lol." proves the value of these badboys. knowing you can sell yours for $200+ even when it is BROKEN is pretty reassuring.
I'm pretty sure that jon_k is LOL'ing at the seller of the broken Tilt, not at you.
$400 seems like a pretty fair price for a almost new Kaiser/TyTN2.

You got to love and hate hotdeals.
It is without doubt a bargain, if you want one and can afford it, I believe that people on that site just vote cold on anything they dont want or cant afford or dont understand, shame really.

Thanks for that - i've been waiting for play.com to have a 10% discount which would have only bought the price down to £432(approx).
This is a great price - i only hope they don't say its a mistake as it looks like one (its cheaper than the Diamond which is £363.39).
It Should arrive on Thursday - just ordered it now.

I've decided to give a WM phone a go again and ordered myself.
To start with I'll just use it with a data sim, to see what its like, as you can't knock a blackberry for staying in touch with IM etc, but Im just so bored of the crap browser experience and lack of software like Live Mesh, which I use one hell of a lot to keep things synced.
I'll use both for a few weeks and see how it goes.
Looks like they have discovered it - gone back up to £466.89 without postage.
Good thing i bought mine
LOL! I don't feel so sick now ; )
spark9990, when your new pro arrives, please could you take a look at what version ROM it ships with now? (start/settings, system tab, device information - though I'm sure you'll know that already). Congratulations on getting such a great price!!!

Had they sent emails to you both confirming dispatch? If so then then I guess they had entered into a contract with you... talk to Trading Standards for a firm answer....

I don't have proof of that - but i do have a receipt, and they did take money out of my account.
Then without my permission carried out a refund transaction. I trying to find out how to contact trading standards but in the mean time i am going to try to reason with sellers.
In a retail store, if a product is tagged as a cheaper price by mistake, then the retailer has to give it at that price.
If Handtec had debited your back account/credit card account, then they had entered into a contract with you to supply that item at that price. Speak to both Trading Standards and Handtec about it and make sure you can demonstrate that they had taken your dosh. All you did is select a product on Handtec's website in good faith and, for their part, it would appear that they too entered into that contract to suppply it, so I suggest they honour it!
EDIT: http://www.tradingstandards.gov.uk, and they should have an entry in your local phone book. Kent is 0845 7585497 (just in case - good luck!)

Thats not true. Most big stores (such as Tesco) will sell you at the quoted price for the good will. By Law they infact have something like 24 hours to correct the price once notified by a customer, during which time they can sell at a different price than is quoted.
That is really bad!
I thought maybe it had something to do with stock levels, but if it got to the depot, you think they would have realised!
Hope you get a response from them or Trading Standards

Bye Bye HTC Touch Pro 2

Well I used it for three weeks and I have to say it was an OK phone but Sprint had it overpriced...I had to pay $450 for it. I was not eligible for the $100 rebate as my $30 SERO plan was too cheap!
I talked to Sprint retentions and they said NO CAN DO! I told them I was leaving...and they still said NO.
So then I thought to myself...is Sprint CRAZY! Why would they think I would pay $450 for a phone!!!
Plus the phone has many bugs that they need to hammer out.
Good luck everyone with your phones...I think I am jumping the ship and getting an iphone.
LOL, see ya
So Long!
This space for rent.
Thanks for an informative post.
hmmmm
$450 plus $30 a month
$199 plus $80 a month for 2 years
$1200 MORE for the service and its crappy service at that.

man, ive got to say this is probably the worst time to give up on TP2.
the unlocker for CDMA tp2s should be out these few days...and you're giving up now. ...
maybe if you weren't so mathematically/intellectually challenged you would have just got the 70 dollar credit first...then waited to pounce. Paid 129.99 no rebates on sero myself with that citibank deal. Even without the 199 price 280 plus 30 a month is killer.
Got the same deal as you and throw in the $ that sprint gave me for my old phone and it was $101 with all taxes... still on SERO and $101 for the phone... can't beat that...
come on dude, look at it in the long run. you'll be better off with tp2. screw sprint just buy the damn phone from someone on ebay in a few months.

I found my TP last year for $200 on ebay... maybe you can find a good deal. Hang in there and look at the long run buddy

Eeek... You shouldn't have said the 'i' word. The guys on here are kind of dicks when it comes to that. I personally don't care for them (iPhones), but my roommate has a new one and it's a pretty slick device. Part of the early adopter fee is bugs. Give the device at least a quarter before giving up on it. I'd recommend waiting if you can, unless there is some way you can get your money back. If you are unhappy with the device because of the price, then it's your fault for paying waaaayyy too much for it. If you are unhappy with the device because of the bugs, then give it a few weeks. HTC and the programmers do a good job at fixing these things. If you just plain don't like the device, then absolutely ditch it. There isn't a one size fits all for phones and I can fully understand why someone would hate this one. I don't really like it at all in its stock format either, but I didn't like my other HTC devices until they were unlocked. It does seem kind of silly to buy a device and have to wait for programmers to hack it before it's useful. Ahhh WRT...
Ignore all the iHate. People ***** about how close minded the iCrew is and then turn around with the same close minded name calling. If the shoe doesn't fit then don't walk around *****ing about it; throw it out. =)

WOW..... I think that was one of the stupidest posts I ever read. The Touch Pro 2 is one of the best phones out. And once we have the unlocker, the possiblities will be endless. Go get an Iphone and be stuck with exactly what Apple gives you. I will take the Touch Pro 2 anyday. And yes, I paid full price for the phone and wanted able to get the $100 dollar mail in rebate because it was only available for those who got the 2 year price.
Laughing hard...
Well I hope you enjoy the iWHATEVER...I used to work for at&t and got nothing but complaints about it. The 3G on at&t is so spotty its not worth switching. I hope you enjoy spending your time with an all eye candy phone and a crappy network.
As for the Touch Pro 2...I love it and nothings going to change that.
And I don't want to be told what I can install on my phone and what I can't. Say if I want the Google Voice App on my device then I'm going to add it. Don't want THE MAN to be able to say no.
dUDE THERE I=S A PROMO CODE IT IS BS220 CALL SPRINT AND TELL THEM YOU RECIEVED IT IN THE MAIL GIVING THE PHONE TO YOU FOR 319.99 NO MAIL IN REBATE.
I HAD TO ARGUE WITH THEM FOR LIKE 2 HOURS BUT GOT THE DEAL. ITS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR SMALL BUSINESSES, BUT I GOT THEM TO APPLY THE PROMO CODE. ITS ONLY GOOD TILL THE 30TH THOUGH

I could not have said this any better. This guy was probably one of those people who wanted to degrade this awesome device and turn it into a replica of the iphone. I cant stand that phone not only because of the service but also because of all the limitations. Yea they have alot of apps, but try downloading it on their inferior network. Good luck with that. Plus windows mobile has been around alot longer and has so many apps as to be uncountable. The price justifies its greatness but I payed 250 with the rebate only because my contract wasnt up yet. Still less than he was paying. Oh well.

Non- Commitment pricing.

Anyone know what the price is going to be without contract?
I contacted an AT&T retail store and they didn't really know, but had read that Samsung posted $350 dollars on facebook. That seems low to me.
I haven't seen any pricing for non-commitment anywhere. Thanks!

I would also want to know, because I'm planning on buying it with no contract.

$700+ on ebay!!!!!
I had my iPhone 4 since it came out (16 gb) and used it the whole time.
I just put it on craigslist and sold it for 600 in less than a day.
Now, I have money for the captivate!!!
What kind of fees would AT&T charge you for the switch? If it really is $350, I'll do the same
Yes! The price is $350 without contract! That's very nice, I'll check tomorrow my local AT&T store to see if they have any in stock already as some people already bought it.
I'd love to go get one tomorrow, but I go to an authorized retailer and there is one person in particular that I deal with. She's always treated me well, and they are a lot nicer than AT&T retail stores. She is out of town until monday I guess I'll be waiting for my phone 'til then.
The one thing I know nothing about is how to load custom roms, as this is my first open source phone! (first had symbian, then iOS) I am excited to see what else is out there.
If its only $350. I'll be buying this Phone off Contract ASAP.
Even tought i wanted an HTC or Motorola. Device ie nexus one, desire. This will do, since my G1 keeps overheating and is on its last legs.
There's people been buying them since yesterday for $350 off contract, so the pricing is real.
wow $350?!...hard to believe really when the tmo version is $499.
http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?cell-phone=Samsung-Vibrant
wait and see 3 more days...
I just returned from AT&T here they let me handle the phone. He showed me the price of the off contract phone as $300.00. He was shocked, but it was right there in living color. They will sell me one this Saturday morning. I will be there.
Wowz0rz
If this pricing is the same here in Arizona Ill be posting my HD2 for sale, use that money to buy a Captivate, and use my phone upgrade for an Iphone4, turn around and sell that beast as well.. Should come out wayyyyyyyyyyyy on top. Good god what a good deal. Thank you AT&T for getting something right.
Good luck to all who seem to be going down this cash flow road. Wooooop!
@willthebill - I am surprised that the Captivate is going to be 350 when the one for t-mobile is 500 as well! I am quite excited about it!

By the way, I found that link by searching with google. Actually searching wireless.amazon.com for the captivate brings up nothing. (?)
edit: I haven't tried ordering from that page, since I'm still debating whether to keep this Aria or not, so use it at your own risk. Certainly looks legit though..

I got my Aria from that same site, except it was a very reasonable $50 with a family contract extension.
But I agree, something is afoot. Either their pricing is way off, or the tech blogs have been misinformed about the Captivate's launching price. I heard 340 was the off contract price, but that doesn't really make much sense considering the Aria's off contract price is 380, and the N1 was like 540.. Who knows?
The $149 price is for a new contract. Contract extension price is $224.

Yeah seriously, I always wondered about that too - what's stopping someone off-contract from just closing the account and opening a new one the next day for the extra discount? Unless you're grandfathered into some unlimited plan you want to hang on to, I don't see how they could stop you from doing it.

Your account must be closed for 60 days in order for the system not to recognize you as a new customer. For example, if you port your number to Sprint for 45 days and decide to go back to AT&T you can pick up right where you left off. It's very easy for them to stop you from doing it and they will. Trust me I've tried it.
