A fair price? - Asus Transformer TF700

I know it is against the rules to advertise or sell on the forums however from my understanding I can get feed back from you guys. So with that said I was curious on what you think a fair going price on this tablet would be. I like the tablet and all but I have a note 2 and am thinking about selling this guy. I was thinking posting it for 400 in my near by Craiglist classifieds what do you think? Thanks in advance. Sorry if this isn't allowed either.

400 what? US$ I'm guessing. Sounds a bit cheap to me. Unless there is no dock?

I don't think he included the dock, but Craiglist? do you know what's the meaning of Craiglist....60%-70% off. People who shop Craiglist, they all looking for dirt cheap price. Ebay, maybe you can get a good price!! Not too long ago, I purchased a dinner set worth 3000$ for $300, now that's Craiglist!! Happy New Year everyone!!!

No dock or anything just the tablet with box and everything. I really dont like dealing ebay just because they take out money (a certain percentage I think) plus you have to ship the thing which is a pain in the butt.

I think $300 would be a fair price.

They are listing for 475 brand new on Amazon, no way I would take a chance on a used product from someone I didn't personally know to save that little. $250 is about where I feel it should be.

here in america they are $500 new, so i would list it at $400 and take $350. thats about as good as you are going to get.

Go to eBay and search for TF700. When the results come up, next to the search button you should see "Advanced Search" link. Click that. Now just below the search words you should see a "Completed Listings" checkbox. Check it and hit the search button again. You will see what they are going for and in what shape they are in when they sell.

I sold my Ipod on ebay just about 2 weeks ago started $85 sold for 158. Sold my Nexus 7 for $30 less then I bought it new. If the product is in mint condition people will pay more. Try selling it high lol what do you have to lose. But I am not like most for I dont sell to make money. Life is to short and I look at it like.. what if that was me what would I want or even be treated.. so I do that and sell it cheap.
So if you want your money back try it high at the least it wont sell, but with words like "MINT" people LOVE! Even if they dont know you.. lol I know. You got people that live there and will buy it just to sell it higher..

Very Sad... but My Diamonds Gotta Go.....

UPDATE SOLD
Thanks
Have you considered selling the wife instead?
VERY low price !?? got mine for £200 inclusive of phone and contract costs over 12 months on the first day it was selling in the UK !
stunno's suggestion makes sense
yeah i agree dump the wife.
no way she can be as useful as the diamond.lol.
proberley be easier to replace as well.
hummmm
my low and your low are too diffrant things i think
just read your sig....diamond and pro...your just greedy
Knock £100 off that price and you might get somewhere.
you won't sell it second hand for that much

I think your right - I'm just greedy - hence the presure I'm under from "her" to sell one and the Pro is much better of the two so sadly its the Diamond thats on its way????
I did research the prices on Ebay first of all and its still as new - nothing other than the phone came out of the box and its had less than 8 hours exposure - Rom's all reset and the phone is as good to go outa the box now as it was when it arrived - will it sell? Who knows - hence the "best offer" option..... but I'd expect you guys to push the price - of course we would but I'm sure someone will want it un-branded, no contract and original HTC.....
I did look for a catagory for listing "wives" on Ebay but apparently its not legal??? Shame???

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!

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.

I have one that I want to sell. It has the original OS so you can tweak yourself.
Asking price is $275.00

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 ..

MT4GS full body case

Hi! I would like to ask if is there anyone that sell a full body case replacement for mt4gs? I got mine from a friend so obviously it's second hand and it's already full of scratches/nicks in the metal plate side so I thought about replacing it and failed to find anyone selling it.
I am not talking about those colored cover thingies on ebay. I am talking about the real case of mt4gs. I am loving this phone physically and I'm pretty sure I won't be shifting phones anytime soon since I am a qwerty enthusiast and the upcoming samsung relay 4g just got rejected by my taste.
I've looked into this as well, and there are a couple links on google if you type in "mytouch 4g slide full housing" or something along the lines of that. I'm on my phone, so no links heh.
I lied. Check www.globaldirectparts.com/HTC-Mytouch-4G-Slide-Housing-p/htc745670.htm.
Hmm I'm outside US and seems like they require Federal Tax ID what's that? @[email protected]
Lol that's weird, since it is called global direct parts. I'd check Ebay out Amazon if you haven't already.
Ok already email them and I got a reply saying...
As a wholesale distributor, we only serve cellphone repair shops, wireless retail stores, refurbishers, insurance companies, and other wholesale purchasers.

Checked ebay they aren't selling any lol! amazon I dunno...
Ah I guess that's why they needed a tax id: to prove you are going to resell it.
Well, I tried lol. I've been looking to buy one as well, but just to keep as a spare just in case. Maybe you can find a repair shop in your area that would sell you the housing. Idk, good luck though haha.
On a side note, my friend was able to buy housing for a SGS2 a month ago from a repair shop down here. They said they don't normally do that, but (and I seriously think this) because she's hot, they "made an exception". They didn't wanna sell it to me so she went in the next day and asked the same question. I love the world we live in haha.

I wish I could lol! But I don't live in US. And mt4gs isn't even sold in our country so my only choice is buying online.
alright, this looks like somewhere you would be able to buy, but the price is kinda steep. it runs about 80 bucks, and for that price i'm willing to just buy another case to hide the battlescars on my phone lol.
