Amazon

Amazon seems to be sellling this phone unlocked for $519.00. My friend is in the US at the moment and i was planning on having them next day ship it to him (Miami). Is this a good deal for a new unlocked Inspire from a reputable place or could you all suggest some other places?
Thanks for all the help everyone! Looking forward to becoming a part of this forum.

I would recommend buying the phone locked for cheaper, and unlock it using the tools available in the dev section.

Well considering I can't get it on contract, do you know where I might be able to find it at an off contract price that is less that what I listed above? Thanks for you help!

479 at amazon without contract.

cant you walk into any ATT store and pay full price for it at 399 dollars? thought it was 400 dollars full price at ATT stores...

+ tax as well.
Inspired from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App

AT&T raised the price to $450 a few weeks back, in fact every smartphone went up $50. Plus tax as well... Better off ordering through Amazon.

Actually would have had to order it pretty early this morning to make sure it got to my friends hotel in time before him leaving. So I might just have him walk into an AT&T as you have suggested... Doesn't seem like it will be too much of a difference. Thanks again everyone! Have all been greatly helpful.

Best site/place to get a G2x no contract

I want to get a G2x off contract because i work at a radioshack and can go on tmobile's dealer plan if i buy the phone outright. I've checked ebay and craigslist which had pretty good prices but i was wondering if you guys knew of any other places that people may not generally go or know about.

I scoured Craigslist for a couple weeks and negotiated price with a few people until I found a deal I was comfortable with. I would think eBay and CL are going to be your best bet for getting a good deal buying it outright.

Off contracts it's gonna be pretty much the same price everywhere. I get a 10% discount at target so that kinda cancelled out the tax so I saved around $50

got mine for 330 off somebody on Craigslist

Craigslist !
I just got one yesterday for $260 off Craigslist.
TMobile wants $535 with sales tax.
I'm going to watch craigslist for a cheap Sensation when its released too.
Usually about a month after release new phones start showing up on there for cheap.

Open a line at costco for $99? Then cancel it (EFT) for $199 .... in the end $300 for a brand new g2x...

If you plan on getting a good deal on craigslist you have to almost live on there.
Most really good deals are gone within a half hour from when its posted.
Mine had been on there half hour when I texted him that I'd take it.
I plan on getting a Sensation on there like that too.
Just bored on a saturday sitting on the PC waiting for something good.

i think costco and other retailer add a separate etf

Costco actually sells the phone off contract for 399.99

I got mine from Radio Shack for $450. Signed up for their credit card that gave me 10% off. Not the cheapest but still a pretty good price for this phone IMO.

I bought mine outright from T-Mobile, paid $250 up front but they let me finance the rest through my monthly bill. It's pretty awesome cause even with financing the other 250 bucks my cell phone bill is still $20 less than what it was with AT&T.

Wow thats $100 off what I paid...
/me thinks
I'm still within my 30 window to take back.... I just don't know anyone with a Costco card. I could use $100 though.
Can I get a confirmation at Costco? I'm about to find someone with a Costco card if this is the case.

They don't. I know because I tried lol. 400 dollars is the price if you're not eligible for upgrade but they still require a contract agreement. That's what I was told when I went there.

You poor thing.
The $399 off-contract price I paid makes it difficult to sympathize.

Lol I would never pay more than $100 bucks for a phone especially now that newer and better phones are coming out so often. But that sucks though I must admit.

Well 1 penny at amazon. So def not worth returning just for a penny.lol

i paid 260 for mine. bought it from ebay...
it depends, but atleast i m not stuck with it for 2 years, or giving it back early and paying another 100 some for new device.
i will use it five six months and sell it for 240 i guess..

35$ at the shack . Happy so far .

is back at $79.99

its free(+tax) at costco, well at least in northern cali. plus if u break it in the first 90 days, they will still accept it as a full return

Just go to at&t,ask them to price match someone who has it cheaper. I bought a case,car charger,and got screen protectors free (buy 2 get 1 free). And they made the price of the phone free

Same price NO tax on AmazonWireless. Except, ironically, in Cali where I believe Amazon now charges tax.
How broken does it have to be for a Costco return...i.e. will they take a bricked phone? Will they also swap it out for a different model (Infuse?)

Nice find.

Hey guys not sure if anyone posted this yet but bestbuy just drop there prices of the skyrocket to 199.00, so if you paid the full 250.00 like i did and you bought it in the last 30 days just take your recite to you local store and get your 50.00 dollar back. Sorry if this has been posted again, just dont want any of you great people to pay more then need

Thanks no-vowel guy!
I would have never thought to check the ads for sales (just not a habit of mine) but due to a glitch in their registers, I received my $50, plus the sales tax my People's Republic of Kalifornien charged me, PLUS the sales tax on the actual $199 I had previously paid. Walked out with $79 and change for reading your post.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Price should convert straight into pounds unless your bank adds a fee. But you will have to pay quite a bit for privately shipping the device and you may also have to pay customs which could set you back a fair bit.

I paid £288 and then my bank charged about £8-9 conversion fee i chose for my bank to convert the currency instead of paypal don't know if it works out cheaper but my guess is it is cheaper.

Paypal for my orders abroad have always done the conversion for free. But when paying £288 already, an extra 10 quid or so isnt a big deal I guess.
