Selling

Hi, sorry but I don't know whether or not we can sell here. But here's my listing: I have a 2 weeks old White Mytouch 4g. Letting this go because I realized I'm not a touch screen keypad person. Phone comes with the box and original accessories, ghost armor shield, and silicone case. Price is 300 obo or trade for Sidekick 4g (like new condition). No low ballers or spams. I live in West Seattle, Wa. Send me a message or comment on this thread and we can work something out.

Good luck getting 300. Anyway, you'll want to post sales and stuff in the Marketplace, not in device-specific forums.

The highet anyone would pay is 160-200 now, if the phone had just came out then he could get away with 300+. And OP you should put the phone in the marketplace area of XDA, or put it on eBay. I would avoid craiglist since there's more seller protection with paypal. I sold my MT4G for 200 which seems justified, that might be the best price range.

I paid $300 for mine back in Feb so I would be surprised if anyone is willing to pay that price 8 months later but they are fools out there...

CL or Swappa is probably the two best places to get the most. Some people on CL just pay a lot sometimes and almost every phone on Swappa are over priced from what I can see.

Just too costly.. even car values depreciate..

Does anyone still buy the captivate?

I'm new therefore not allowed to post in marketplace. I got 2 brand new in box.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using xda premium

Yes people do. I've actually wanted to get a second one for a while.
I am not amused by your phones performance

New ones in the box seem to go for around 300 on ebay still.

So i'll sell mine for $250 shipped. $475 for the pair. They are att&t. But also one of the easiest phones ever to unlock. I'm glad to do it for anyone that wants it done before shipping. At the moment they've never been out the box.

Would it matter? I'm also open to trade. I'll gladly give them both away for an sgs2

I bet you would. Sgs2 on Amazon goes for about $550+. You said you would let them go for $475/pair. Yeah, I can see why you would do that.

Anyone that buys from this guy is a compete fool. No offense buddy, just looking out for the members. There's a reason u need a certain amount of posts to list in the market place. Lots of people getting ripped lately. Sorry buyers beware

Not sure how to respond. Because your absolutely correct. No one has any reason to trust me what so ever. And theres no way to change that. But my options are this or ebay. They have lost tons of value as it is because of the length of time I've had them. I'm sure I could get 500 on ebay, but by the time I pay their fee and paypal s fee for the money transfer and the shipping cost I might have 425 left. If you've sold on ebay then u know. And we all know what they cost so the thought of selling a brand new galaxy s for $212.50 seemed crazy. Wasn't sure what to do. I dont need the money but they'll be worth nothing if I continue to hold on to them. Its ok if u dont trust me.

Ha. I didn't know. I'm sorry I came off wrong. I was just trying to get rid of a couple extra phones. I know nothing about "scamming". Can we just delete this post? Its went completely in the wrong direction. Maybe ebay was my best option. Irony was I never thought about selling them in the forum until I noticed the"marketplace"

Try Amazon.

Why not try Craigslist?

Just bought a second one for my wife. I'll keep these until the Galaxy Note has been out for a month or two. Loving that 5.3 inch SAMOLED. No reason to go to the SGS2 that I can see. It is awesome, but not that much better than the Captivate.

Sure there is. I havnt sold in a couple years(another reason why I shy away, so much has changed) but i remember paying an extra .25 just to have a pic posted during search. Extra charges if you use alotta pictures. And the charge just to post, and the extra if you sell your item. Things of that sort. My accounts havnt been activated in a while. I went back to paypal the other day just to update that accout. New bank and such. Because i bought a few accesories for the captivate I use now. If the person thats interested perhaps lives in southern VA or northern NC maybe we could meet. I live on the line midway (Halifax County, VA) Or if there is someone you really trust on the forum I could send the item to the first. And when they get it they can let you know. Then I could recieve my payment. Of course it would have to be someone of high standing. I would hate to get ripped off myself. Just know I'm not here to scam anyone. I could take pics of the items if it helps. At least you'd know I actually have them. Beside a printout of this post so you know i didnt just copy a picture from the web. I'm trying here guys. I'm an honest person. I dont care if I sell them now. I guess now I'm just trying to build a little trust.

Post edited - You must post for sale items in the marketplace.

Best place to buy and sell used phones

What are some good sites to buy and sell phones other then Amazon or Ebay?

I've had good luck with Craig's List but remember to follow the rules:
1. face to face ONLY and
2. cash ONLY!
You can always meet at the carrier's store and get the phone activated right there, that eliminates any possibility of a bad ESN or...

A little Craigslist tip, send your seller multiple extremely low offers from separate email accounts, lower his confidence a little before going in for the real but still below value offer.

Lol nice im trying that next time
this Thunderbolt has been Infected with a Virus for all Eternity

I usually sell mine on Ebay and buy them on craigslist or Ebay.

Swappa.com is another. It's where I bought my Thunderbolt.

You can also sell your used/broken phone at Buy Back Pros other than Amazon or eBay. I can say this because I also sold my broken phone at Buy Back Pros where I got a very good price there even all beyond my expectations. They provide me free pickup and also the 30 days money guarantee

Want to know peoples experince on best way to sell phone.

i have a thunderbolt in essentially new condition that i want to sell, but only really know of ebay. have people used other services that they could recommend? or if you know of any sites where people barter for other electronics that would be great too

Use the marketplace here its free to use with far less hassle than ebay. I've sold 2 phones here my g2 and nexus one and both were successful, easy and smooth transactions!

you can also try swappa.com they charge you $10 but the service is great I've used it several times to buy and sell phones.

Ebay always has been best for me, good prices and quick sales

Or get robbed. Be verrrryyyy careful with face to face meetings.
eBay has served me very well over the many devices I've sold.

I have sold successfully on amazon, although they do charge comission. I have used craigslist too, but if you choose to meet, do so at a public place, like coffee shop or grocery store.

Wow - I hope people aren't getting robbed! Meet at a Verizon store, not in a back alley in the worst possible part of town. Done many a transaction via Craigslist, never once had any issues and I usually sell within a day or 2 and get the amount I am looking for.

Any one looking for a brand new htc one x white?? Post moved

post moved... thank you guys

Wait so you don't want to pay a restocking fee yet you are hoping to get 530 for it.... you do know the restock fee is $35 right? You're losing money...........

Been around for 4 years and you make a thread like this? Wrong section for one and two no ebay links. Not buying the whole nephew story either. Not what I'd expect from an xda veteran.

Hit up Jcase if this is legit, hes looking to buy a phone, he stated that today in a different thread..

How old is it? 1st batch (1.73) or 2nd (1.85) batch?

He will be losing more than a little bit. After eBay, PayPal fees and shipping he will be losing about $120. Unless of course he is past his return widow then he has no choice but to sell it.

there is no restocking fee on an unopened item.......

What your nephew do?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Don't have access to the Market board yet, but Im looking to trade my One X and an iPhone 4 for an S3, or sell them to buy the S3.

sorry been at work. att rep told me 15% restocking fee as did the manager. weather it is opened or not. sorry for placing this in the wrong place. yes this is legit. 15% of 594 $89 I would rather help a fellow here who wants one. then take it back to the store. figure i would sell it here. and not loose ( give att) about 90$.

My nephew did not graduate like he told me he was going to. so no phone for him. he can keep his moto razor flip phone. lol as far as batch, i dont know how do i check?

sorry man this is all true. not gonna return to att store, nephew let me down. paid full price 549$ plus tax.

ok so after reading the receipt... i had 30 days... june 6th was that date... so now i either stick with it or sell it. i was looking forward to a GS3. but maybe this phone will do.

Coming from a evo I must say the build quality on the hox has improved greatly.
The camera is fantastic, even my 7 year old can take some impressive shots.
Rooting/unlocking boot loader is a walk in the park with the AIO tools, Id say if your looking to upgrade anyways keep the hox and rub that phone in your nephews face every chance you get.

i like that. just every day have it sit there and as he does my yard work just use it for like pandora for my out door system... lol put very good use to it. thats funny

I posted in your marketplace thread. I'm interested
