WTB - Used g-tablet (AUS) - G Tablet General

hi guys
i'm looking to buy a used g-tablet, i'm in australia so it's much harder for me to buy from an online retailer. i have a headfi/ebay/ocau account where i've sold/bought plenty of stuff in case anybody needs some reassurance.
let me know what you have and how much you'd like for it
thanks

Id suggest Amazon mate, got mine from them, shipped to Sydney in less than 14 days. and since the price seems to be dropping, eg down to around $360 US dollars, and with our dollar atm, its the time to do it.
http://www.amazon.com/Viewsonic-G-Tablet-Multi-Touch-Screen-Android/dp/B004EPV7TK/ref=pd_sim_e_1

Got mine from Amazon too, $444.14 in the end, expedited delivery, 6 days from ordering, turned up in Canberra.
Took me a few days of checking to be able to order one though, only when it's actually from amazon would it be able to be shipped to Aus, other company's that sell through amazon seem to not ship out of the USA.

+1 for amazon, a few posts below this one http://www.amazon.com/Viewsonic-G-Tablet-Multi-Touch-Screen-Android/dp/B004EPV7TK/ref=pd_sim_e_1 for $359 atm is better than what I got it for 3 weeks ago ($379)

thanks for the responses guys, i considered amazon but most of their merchants don't ship abroad and through amazon themselves it comes to about $420 inc standard shipping. i'm hoping to see if i can pick it up cheaper

Don't forget that there are quite a few really nice tablets coming out like the Elocity A10 and the Asus transformer. Those two are in my options the best options coming out soon. I am going to pick up a transformer when it comes out next month. It comes with honeycomb, 1 gig ram and an IPS screen. The G tablet is great but it will be probably a month or longer before honeycomb is stable enough to use daily. And Intel will be releasing the SandyBridge mobile processors later this year and those are going to kick some ass. Also checkout WI-DI. I can't wait. I would recommend a G tablet if you can get a good deal on one like $250. But for $400 go with the A10 or transformer. Just my 2 cents.

Looking for G Tablet

Looking for a G Tablet in nice condition. Please keep in mind brand new ones from retailers are going for $360. I'm pretty new here but have feedback at other forums(overclock.net,howardforums, and headfi) and ebay.
sell you one for 350 plus a 16gb card and a custom case if you want. plus box and everything etc.
6ave now has it for $343 with a coupon code so.... Keep your offers reasonable.
I may entertain selling mine however the mini USB is loose and would require you to solder it back in place. Everything else works. I was thinking $250. Would come with TNT Lite installed. I do have the custom skin on the back and a Kindle case too. The original box and cloth would be included too.

I have one for $300 shipped USPS w/ paypal. Brought it new from Sears a few months ago. Everything is working fine and there's no major scratches. Email me if you're interested. I can probably snap a few pix for you. My email is my xda username at gmail. Also the same username for ebay for feedback reference.
I have one as well with the original box and cover and have no scratches on the screen. I had ipad screen protecter on the gtablet since I have bought it. You can have it for 325 shipped with box and cover and all of the proms and kernel saved in nice folders.
You can make me a reasonable offer as well.
$325
Comes with Box - paperwork
I will also throw in the following:
zpad malata leather case
zpad hdmi dock
carbon fiber skin for the back (already installed)
and free ups ground shipping to non-po box addresses
I had a few scratches on the back of mine - thus the reason I wanted the carbon fiber skin. The dock has hardly been used and the leather case I have only had since janurary.
The battery charging light doesnt come on any more - but the screen shows its charging.
The device has Vegan 3 or 4 on it and I will throw in a 4gb memory card
I can accept paypal or credit cards through my company website.
If I have no takers by Thursday morning its going on ebay for the weekend
$325 takes mine also. (Dock included)
Comes in box, like new. Only had mine for a couple weeks. Have receipt w/date.
Tablet form factor not for me. I require a laptop/netbook for my needs.
Included are the following:
Viewsonic G Tablet in box like new, no scratches
Dock with power, HDMI, Ethernet, USB
4GB MicroSD card
Has TNT G-Harmony ROM Installed currently
$270 shipped is what I am hoping to get it down to. Many people are offering to sell theirs at $300 shipped, its hardly a deal anymore, its the "regular" price for this item.
Also, Please PM me if your actually interested in selling yours. Its getting rather confusing with some many people posting offers.
I paid $415 including tax for mine less than 1 month ago. I am including a dock that I paid $45 for and an 8GB card valued at least $10. That = $470 and you want me to take a $200 hit cause you want a deal. It's barely used, it is brand new. Good luck finding one in this condition for that price with these accessories, but I am not going to make it easy for you.
$300 is not the "regular" price, nice tactic though.

You do realize that $350 is how much a new one goes for. $280 for a refurbished one at Sears.

Thoughts on G tablet Woot deal

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

So long g-tab!!!!

I am selling my G-Tab...going to try to get a Honeycomb tablet. I have the Following:
Good Condition G-Tablet
Box w/Docs
USB cable
A/C Adapter
***BONUS****
The Keyboard/Case
(http://www.amazon.com/Viewsonic-G-T...9N1O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1301587480&sr=8-1)
All for just $375 w/ FREE Shipping in my paypal account (US Only unless you want to pay the difference in shipping)
PM me with offers and questions
Dude most people here would not buy the G-Tab for more then $300. They had a $280 woot the other day. Sell it for $300 and you will get bites.
Amazon has it for $340.
Also, Get the $400 Asus eee honeycomb that is coming out for Best buy. $150 more but you get IPS and honeycomb.
This post makes me sad . Ordered my Woot tablet last week for $279.99 and it arrives today! I don't want to see someone selling!
and yeah considering like half the people here now got a tablet on woot, good luck for selling it for a hair over $284.99.
I hate to say it, these folks are right, your price is a little high. You may want to wait and let the fine devs do their thing to provide us with a nice honeycomb rom.

You can't blame him. He probably got it when the gtab was still in the $350-400 range.
Added by edit.
PS - My elderly dad wants one after he saw me using it. He mainly wants to use it to surf the net while sitting on his comfortable chair and have a 10 inch screen gps. I'm waiting for it to go sub 300 again to buy it for him.

If your buying the ASUS "Transformer" make sure you order the optional wheels.

Considering that it is looking like that Asus will be closer to £400 than $400, I wouldn't be in a rush to trade up to it just yet. $150 for IPS and honeycomb is one thing, $300+ is another.

Don't always compare pricing from other countries to how US pricing will work out. Companies rarely do that themselves. For example a 160gb ps3 on amazon uk that's been discounted from 255 pounds to 229 pounds. 229 pounds is $369 that same ps3 sells on Amazon's US website for $299.99 $70 less than the Brit's discounted price. The UK usually gets shafted the most when it comes to electronic prices so they're the worse to convert to what the US price will be.
After finding out about the Asus Eee Transformer yesterday, I immediately sold my gTablet for $280 on Craig's List (which included an extra AC adapter and the Mazata dock). That's what I had paid for it myself a few weeks ago, so I'm breaking even. If the retail prices for the Transformer floating around on the Internet are accurate, that could be a killer tablet. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these puppies!
Ron
Well guys, I must admit... I had some fun with the gtablet... for a couple days. Then my mom came over last night and flashed her iPad 2. I know these devices are different, but the screen is SO much better. And it's so much lighter! In any case, the gtablet is not for me. I've put mine on eBay. I started the bidding at 1 cent, and I have 100% seller rating so I know some of you are looking for a second tablet - this might be your chance!

In need of gtab

New user here. Would like to pick up a reasonable priced gtab for my wife. Anyone have on for sale? Thanks
I have one that you can have it with the box for $265 shipped. I have it rooted running CM7.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I was hoping to get closer to $200 or lower.
I am going to keep mine. Sorry I can't go that low.
I might have a deal for you. Give me a day to think it over though.
anyone have one for sale under 200? Would like to get one for my mom for mothers day ^_^

The only gtab that was sold for under $200 on this forum had a cracked glass.
I think the retail stores are still $300+ tax so $200 is a little cheap. I can't see it going that cheap until way down the road. Even $300 since the eee pad is going to be $400 (if you can find one) is not unreasonable.
I have a sealed in the box I'd let go. $310 and I'd be happy, which is a few bucks less than retail at least.

For sure you would be happy, but I highly doubt the buyer would be.
$310 right now is as unreasonable as these sub $200 requests, mainly because you can get one brand new in box with full 12 months manufacturer warranty shipped to your door for $275 all in from amazon.
Buy with any major credit card and you get another 12 months of warranty on top (for the same $275 all in).
That said, even at more common $300 (all in current gtab retail price), the extra $100 for a BNIB transformer is well justified (IMHO) given the IPS screen, native HC, built in GPS and docking ability.
To be fair, $250 with some accessories seems to be the norm on this board, which makes sense given that any of the accessories I have seen offered would have cost at least another $30~$50 (cases, docking station or skinomi's)
Would this get even lower ? hell yes, but not now, just wait till the transformer has enough stock for them to start sales.
As some has pointed before, your best chance at getting the maximum possible offer is a private sale to an unsuspecting neighbor via CL or Kijiji.
Best of luck any way ..

Anyone having luck finiding this watch?

I messed up and didnt order one at release, now im wanting it pretty bad.
Anyone having luck finding it in the US? I have read reports from several people that some 3rd party vendors that are shipping from Korea are shipping out international version ( no samsung pay, right? ) so I'd like to avoid that.
Frys Electronics shows it available for shipping first week of Jan.
Id prefer to go through Best buy or amazon, anyone have some insider info on them? Customer support has zero info.
thank you!

I was able to find it at Best Buy.
I had the same problem. Couldn't find it anywhere, finally I took a chance, and went to craigslist, saw one going for $200 no box, I asked the guy if the charger came with it, he said yes. I took the chance, went for it, and it's just the watch, with the charger, (no cable or power block) but for $200 it's not bad. I factory reset it before I did anything, so far so good, everything works, Samsung pay works.
Best buy
None of the best buys in my area or anaheim, ca or las vegas have them in stock. The best my local best buy was able to do for me is give me a 10% off coupon ad they couldn't even let me place an order to secure the 299 price.
Been keeping an eye on Craigslist too, thank you guys!

I usually check nowinstock.net for email notifications when they come in stock at Best Buy, amazon or B&H.
https://www.nowinstock.net/electronics/smartwatches/samsung/
It actually looks like its in stock at best buy currently with free 2 day shipping: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-gear-s3-frontier-smartwatch-46mm-dark-grey/5647800.p
Aww snap! Thanks for that! I was at bestbuy not less then 2 hours ago and they were showing none. Anywhere. Ordering!
I Also got mine from Bestbuy about a week ago, but they were out of all the Bluetooth only editions. I ended up convincing them to sell me an ATT version for the same price and I'm just using it as Bluetooth only. Seems they are out of stock just about everywhere..
I ended up getting two shipped out. One came in today and the bezel clinks quite a bit. Going to see how it compares to the one arriving tomorrow.
Found one under my Christmas Tree. :good:
I just bought one today from my local Best Buy. No Best Buy locally had them until yesterday. Per the manager I bought mine from, they had a shipment of them come in yesterday. They only got 4. There was only 1 not ordered online that was available for anyone to walk in and buy. They didn't have a demo unit on the floor.
AT&T has a special if you upgrade a line, you can get the S3 for 50 bucks...just did it myself. Doesn't have to be the Flagship, either...any Galaxy phone.
Just walked into my local best buy today and they had one left. It was $350 though. They said they will price match until the 15th of January so hoping it goes on sale! Either that or Verizon announces they are getting a LTE model and I'm returning this one asap
Picked one up, the last one, at my local Best Buy. It was $350 but I was able to use a one time 10% discount. Came out to $337. A few bucks more than with tax on the sale price. Ordered from Samsung 3 weeks now and still no updates. Cancelled that order.
whoever is looking, I use this site to stalk the stock of the main website/stores to find most things and the watch was one of them. It even says at this exact moment amazon has them in stock
https://www.nowinstock.net/electronics/smartwatches/samsung/
None of my Best buys stores in the Bay area has it in stock. Starting hitting craigslist and picked one up for $220, like new in box with all accessories and the receipt from Amazon. Can't express how much more comfortable this is compared to my S2.
They have alot in the Fort Worth Texas areas

Man i have had the same luck with Samsung. I ordered during the christmas sale and its been weeks. Aholes haven't shipped my order yet. Best buy has been out of stock since a long time near me, either. So i kept checking almost daily like a routine and finally found in stock, ordered and cancelled my Samsung order. The frustrating part is Samsung website has been showing The Frontier will ship in 1-3 business days since past coupla days. I called their agents and they all be like- "Oh sorry, it just means it will be delivered in 1-3 business days, once it leaves the warehouse. It is not what you think". WT?? Man I got so pissed calling them again and again with no luck, they all repeating the same sht. I have a strong feeling they are not shipping in the order received. I think brand new orders at full price are still being shipped sooner than those back orders sold at sale price.
