[Q] Selling My X10....

I was just curious does anyone know of a good site other than ebay or kijiji. This question is more for My Ontario Canada brothers.....I understand every community or region may have a certain place to sell used tech stuff. Hey if anyone is interested pm me. Also what do you all feel is a good price? Thanks ahead of time for the responses.
Hey man i feel you still I bought my X10 on the day it was released here in Canada with high hopes, and it been kinda of ****. But to be honest If you got your phone with a contract just keep the phone for a year or something and just wait for the next gen phones to come out to Rogers/Canada. I know some people are have switched to the Desire and stuff, well it may seem cool now it is kinda outdated and the "next gen" phones are coming out next year as well. So yeh.
Also try ebay. I tried to sell my X10 at a point but people are kinda aware of the lack of multi touch and stuff so I gave up. One guy was asking me 250.
Redflag Deals might be a good place, but plenty are already selling their X10s there.
The going price in the UK for a used X10 in good condition without scratches is between 200 and 250 pounds. I think it's a good price. You could can sell on ebay as long as you are priced right.
I get one free device per year of up to 1,000 euro in value from my service provider. Plus the local dealer let's me get a second device at the same price as a new customers with contract. So I bought the iphone4 in the beginning of July for 300.
I got the X10 for free, so 200 pounds would go towards covering the cost of the 4. I am taking mine to a flea market next weekend and going to try to get 300 to 250. If not I will put it on Ebay with a buy now price of 220.
Are you just trying to sell it or do you want to replace it with another phone? I'd suggest offering a trade for some other phones on Kijiji and various message boards...
Good grief. Nobody here want to use XDA's own marketplace?
im looking to pick up an x10 if youre still looking to sell. send me a msg and maybe we can work something out? im in ontario as well

[Q] Buying an Atrix

Hey guys,
Looking to buy an Atrix. A couple quick and noob questions.
1) Where should I buy it from? I have an upgrade on AT&T in August, but from all indications it seems the Atrix is pretty underpriced versus things like the SGII and stuff. Go ebay? Any better choices online for a barely used Atrix?
2) Bootloader. I know it is about to be unlocked, and I saw something about maybe an international unlock already available. You guys think there will be plenty of devs for the phone once we get around to getting it unlocked? I don't want a phone as big as the SGII anyways.
From there, do you guys think its a smart idea to get an Atrix when I have an upgrade available soon? My thinking is getting the Atrix off contract, selling my Captivate, then around November or so when a new batch of phones come out on 4G LTE possibly getting one of those. Maybe the Nexus Prime or something by then? What do you guys think?
I can try and opinate on 2 and 3
2 - There already seems to be a lot of devs involved. Not only cyanogen mod is being ported, there are already a list of ROMs on development. And the bootloader is already unlockeable here on this forum
3 - The Atrix may take some time to take off and reach its full potential, it's one of those phones that needs that extra effort from buyers to make it shine. If you're aiming for a buy in november, it's probably best to just wait for the next batch of phones. I bought the atrix cause I plan to keep it for around 2 yrs.
I'm about to buy an atrix too, and I'm getting it from Craigslist for 280 dollars. I'm saving my upgrade for later.
That's the best way to go.

Well here is what I'm thinking:
I can sell the Captivate for ~200, what its going for on Ebay. That puts my Atrix cost down to $100 total pretty much. Then come November, I'm hoping I could resell it for like $200 maybe? Basically would put me at $-100 total cost for the phone, and I'll put the $100 towards my upgrade. So I definitely don't think its a problem to buy it now if its the phone I decided on, because the value seems so low that it isn't going to depreciate as fast as say the SGII from now until it becomes available and such
Anyone else say Craigslist > Ebay for buying the phone? I'm thinking that may be the case as well if prices are that cheap usually
Well I'm going Craigslist because you meet in person, in public, and pop in your sim card to test the device. If it works right then make the transaction.
EBay just seems way to risky to me.
The dev list is growing as we speak! There have been two roms released in the passed two days, both from new devs. Im optimistic. Plus, on cm7 stats, there are 15 devs running cm7 on ATRIX, which makes me optimistic for a future cm7 release. Hope this helps! Tis a great phone.

Livesound headset, where, when?

Hey
I've been wanting this headset from the get go, but it doesn't seem to be sold anywhere, at least not yet.
I've looked for a release date, but can't find anything about it, so do anyone have some insightful intel on the matter?
(I have seen that Play.com have them, but I'm not sure if they're to be trusted as the headset is nowhere else to be seen, and It's not in my country..Denmark)
I saw them on Amazon today but at 69 GBP... that's like over $100 Australian ... wtf... They'd wanna sound freaking great...
Well you can get em here now for about 67 euros now... Which is kinda expensive. I'm planing on buying them at some point though, but I may wait to see if they drop a bit.
yea me too .. even ebay is better
whats so special about it ?
And are there plans for bleutooth variant ?
I have them. :-D they are f'kin awesome :-D
BTW it costs 79,99 euros (in austria, but they sold out :b)

How much !!

I have a virtually brand new sgs2 (white ) its only been used as a spare for my girlfriend until she got her new phone,so its about a month old. It has been rooted but no custom ROMs as she just needed the temp sim unlock which I have now removed again but kept the root enabled. So I would like now to sell it and was wondering how much these are worth today?. Its 3 UK carrier with all leads,headphones etc and boxed and has a screen protector under the original over covers.
Looked around but the variety of prices makes it unclear how much I should sell for,any ideas.........

eBay will give you a guide as to what they're going for I would have thought.
Edit - Scrub what I said about Marketplace. Seems they closed it a couple months ago. Or sites like this. I'd be surprised if you didn't have them in the UK (Google = friend).

Mmmmmm I wanted a community perspective on pricing because like I said I have looked but the variations on pricing are so different everywhere I look. I want to give somebody a bargain/fair price but I don't want to get ripped off either. The phone was free to me and I have a nexus 4 so I don't need the s2. Thanks but no disrespect I don't need links to here and there but would appreciate a comment like.....
" I would not sell it for less than ? "
" I think they are worth about ? "
Kindest regards

i made a research on the used price of the s2 for a friend of mine, and it goes from 250€ to 350€.
i think around 300€ (or 257.55£) is a fair price
Always go a little higher than what you want to sell it at ( 250 = 270 etc.) because people always wants to go down in price .

Well If you're thinking of selling it...do it fast, samsung might drop the price of SGS2 anytime soon, coz its already doing that for many phones like S3 and note 2 etc..
Well it should go for about british 250 pounds(shouldn't go more than that) if you have all required stuff and accessories...
depends on buyer how much he's willing to pay..
Youll get nowhere near £250.I sold mines for £205 on boxing day,and a 3 month old note for £250 the day after that.Done it via eBay and that cost me about £50.
I believe Orange were selling brand new s2 for £199.99 not long after that.
You list the phone for whatever you think its worth and see if anybody bites.
Thanks all
So if I say £200 then that's a fair price yes ? Give or take a few £
Like I said its virtually brand new with I would say no more than 30 hours use.

Well in India you could sell that for about Rs.18000 to a dealer who deals second hand phones... Coz its only a month old...
That guy will increase the price to Rs.19-20000(220 pounds) and sell in the market... That's all I know... confirmed..
Plus markets are pretty different from places to places... Idk whether it's a good or bad idea selling it online...
Better sell it to a friend or someone...coz that person will feel a sense of security and already knows how less you've used it so will be willing to pay more..
Now u shouldn't be selling it nowhere below 170 pounds... Coz am already getting a 4 month used galaxy S2 in that price here...
Rest is your choice..
Sorry I was saying 250 pounds cox I had got conversions wrong..

The price would totally depend on where you want to sell it... Ebay is one thing, local Craigslist is another. As always, it's not what you want to sell it for, but what someone is willing to pay for it. In my local market, my target would be somewhere around $220-$250. $200 would be the lowest I'd sell it for. I bought my SGS2 a month ago for $140 on Craigslist. The only problems with it were the crappy battery and a scratched lens cover, so I had to buy a replacement casing and a new battery (about $30 worth in total)...
Duty free shop:
S II Brand new: $ 640 bucks
S III brand new: $ 740 bucks.
crazy right?
Sell it as Brand new.

[Q] Help Choosing A Temporary Phone

Hey everyone, I really need help deciding on a temporary phone. My digitizer's messed up, can't get repair service anywhere without getting ripped-off, can't do repairs myself. So I decided to hunt for used phones as a temporary/spare phone solution instead while waiting for 27 October when my contract renews.
I got the Xperia Play at $150 (Singapore dollars) but I feel very uneasy about the phone since I have issues with modding it anyway. Currently I'm willing to switch that out to either a 4XHD standing at around $250, or a S2 at $220. They're still a lil' too pricey even for used phones I feel. Which one would you guys go for, and why?
Also, was wondering if anyone can give me strong reasons to give while bargaining to get better prices. Like trading in older devices or superficial reasoning (I dunno) something lol. Really lacking the money to go over those prices... but if I have to I guess it won't hurt too much...
S2 is a solid phone. I'm still using it with really no real motivation ATM to upgrade it.
The Atrix is another solid phone, and might be easier on your budget.
If you are not really comfortable with Modding your phone, then check out the Nexus 4.
^ That will give you all the current JellyBean goodness, and most likely KitKat as well for a very reasonable price...

Atrix' have been selling on craiglists near me for 90 dollars and thats a steal. If I had more money atm I would buy them and resell them for at least 130. Atrix is a solid phone. AND a Jelly Bean 4.2.2 rom available that I use as a daily driver.
Galaxy S II is also a great choice, though if you are in the US there are like 3 versions and some have better battery life than others, and varying features. would play ~ 140
For real cheap a Lumia 520 (Windows Phone 8) has been bouncing around the internet as a $85 go-phone.
Here is a link to a Lumia 520 phone for $85 and free shipping.
