Yup, I'm thinking of sending it to you for free when I have an option to sell it on eBay for 100+ bucks.

Its more frowned upon than prohibited. Many people are selling the invites on eBay. The only thing I see that OnePlus is doing, is that they don't let you sell it on the OnePlus forums.

It's prohibited by OnePlus, and it's prohibited by eBay because you can't sell non-physical items on eBay.

You guys need to be smart. Within eBay policy you can still sell it. You need to sell something cheap (for example a plain empty envelope) and this code with it for free.Just put the cost of envelope as 125 bucks. This is within eBay policy and I have talked to eBay customer support on it. Once they win the auction, send the the "Free Code" over email and the 125 bucks worth the empty blank envelope in the mail.:highfive:

This, and all of the other threads begging for invites for the OPO, is a bad idea. We have more than enough of these floating around the forum.
This thread is closed like many of the others like it.

Best Buy Price Refund

Best Buy has dropped the Infuse price to $149. I went in today and got my $50 dollar credit. Don't wait, as the refund can only be obtained within the return period.

It may be $129 tomorrow (Memorial Day) on Amazon for upgrades. Maybe cheaper for new customers. Check it tomorrow. If it is $129, I will probably pull the trigger.

Where do you see the $99 for a new two year? Did you speak to any customer service rep?
I want to know if this 100 adjustment worked for more that one person and what was said and what kind of rep/dept it was

As a new customer for AT&T you are able to use an online promotion that takes $100 off almost any phone as long as you order online. I tried it for the Infuse and it works, but since we're already customers we don't have access to any $100 off promotion. I didn't buy my phone at AT&T so I can't try getting $100 back.

So I called them today to complain about feeling as though I was "slapped in the face" as a loyal customer (been with bellsouth/ATT wireless since 1997). After a little interrogation and some hemming & hawing she gave me the $100 credit (105.42 to be exact). This phone rocks pretty hard with a $100 price tag...lol. I'm glad more of you have called and done the same thing. While I understand the importance of marketing to obtain new business, current customers should not be left out in the cold. ;-)

Spoke to two reps this morning both said no. One regular rep, another was the online rep. The online rep said I should just return my current unused Infuse, cancel the order and line, and re-order a new one for the $99 price since I'm under my 30 days. Made an note of it as well.
I'd loose the activation fee and have to pay another. Any idea's?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Ask for the retention dept, be adamant about the online price and tell them you want the credit. When I called I told them my brother just order the same phone online and got it for 99, the Rep said she couldn't do anything so I asked for a supervisor. He is the one that authorized the credit. Trust me if it comes down to losing a contracted $79 month customer over a $100 credit they will give you a "one time courtesy" credit. You just need to be persistent...

Unlock Code Needed

Well i called WIND and they told me they'll charge me $10 for it. I was like no thanks, so I came here after many searches over google and xda. My question is can someone please provide me with a FREE unlock code for my LG G2x?
Info:
Phone: LG G2x
Carrier: WIND
PM me for the IEMI if you can do this for me.
Thanks

3 bucks
Though I never thought of eBay and just paid 10 bucks to wind yesterday. It is a rip-off considering I asked how much it was to unlock the phone when I was buying it and was told it was going to be free. Apparantly Wind decided to charge $10 about 3 months ago.

I emailed him and received a reply. He's totally fine with offering people a Benjamin over what they paid and not a dollar more. It's his"convenience" fee since they do not have to go through the burden of reselling their devices on their own.

Ordered S4 from Walmart![8-8-13][Information on firmware][TAKE the POLL]

So, this is my second S4, it may be a short run depending on how the phone ships!
Here is the info to be supplied by this post!
1. Price I paid to Walmart.
2. Time it takes to arrive, (remember I purchased online 8/8/2013)
3. What firmware did it ship with? (will report soon as I get it)
4. If not updated, (possible rooting before the update happens)
5. End result, (those of you wondering if you can get the Samsung 3rd party before the last OTA update) we will solve here!
6. Updates will appear in post #3
Stay Tuned!!!
Walmart Price
$159.95 cheaper then ATT at posting!
this is based on 2 yr renew contract!
FREE FEDEX SHIPPING!
My Device has shipped with an arrival date of the 13th...
Updates will appear here!
:laugh:THINGS WE NOW KNOW:laugh:
1. Good deals exist through out the various carriers, do research before you buy!
2. Good sources, (right here in this thread) suggest the firmware is on the box...(look before purchasing)
3. Athough a good deal can be had online, your taking a chance of getting the updated/locked-down firmware from hell...
4. 3rd parties as well as the carriers still are shipping the old firmware, but as old stock depletes latest will be shipping!
5. If you are fortunate to get the older firmware... do not insert Sim until rooted & booted to prevent OTA..
6. My personal S4 from walmart shipped and has a delivery date of 8/13/2013
7. Please take the pole...
THANKS for STOPPING BY!
Sorry but this thread is pointless, even if you get an mdl (pre mf3) from walmart doesnt mean all wallmarts or third parties will be the same...some att stores are still selling mdl and others mf3...it just depends what that individual store has in stock

1. That is true, but some folks want to take some guesswork out of the math equation...
2. Its a better chance for Walmart to have stockpiled S4's directly from Samsung having the old Firmware..
3. If this post is useless to you... Move along!
Thanks, for posting!
Just curious, does anyone know if there is an identifier on the box that could give away the build date of the device? Would only help checking out local inventory, if possible. I threw mine away about 2 weeks ago.

Check ebay. Nobody will buy it for more than they ask there unless you offer it with a clean installation of a good custom rom AND you find a buyer who knows enough to appreciate it.

I'm thinking about selling my tablet with my dock too, but is ebay a really good place? Several times already I've seen them having sales of the tf700 at $250 US dollars. Would pawn shops be beneficial?

Generally, a pawn shop is the worst place to try getting anything close to market value for an item. You might get lucky and find a shop that does not know how to properly value used electronics and give you something close to fair value. But I would lean toward ebay, or craigslist if you live in a large enough city/region - CL usually means a lower selling price, but no ebay/paypal fees or having to worry about shipping issues or buyer remorse.

Where would you go to check the going price for a used consumer electronics item?
As long as there is one for sale on ebay, you won't get a better price elsewhere.
would you guys with the docks be willing to sell just the dock? I never got the dock to begin with because at first i didnt think it was worth turning my tablet into a little netbook type of thing but recently ive seen more and more people type up notes with their keyboard and tablet in class and im interested to see if its worth it.
Im kinda going on a tangent but did you guys get alot of use from the dock?
Sold mine for 400. Best place is Facebook on any of the university forums.

I originally bought the dock to type my school papers on the go. Then I would transfer and fix it, but I just bought a laptop for that. I didn't really use the dock
