Since asda sold all the evo 3d's for £230 and they were announced out of production
There value has just plummeted recycle value is at best £73 where as the galaxy s2 still has a recycle value of £230
I use GSM. I've been told that I can get them for $150.00. Totally not true.
I mean brand new in box. Not Craigslist or someone's screwups.
I would gladly buy a few new for $150.00 each with no contract but its just NOT possible.
Here in the US you be lucky to get anything over $130 for a 3D. I couldn't sell mine for $120 so I trade it at Best Buy for $110. BTW the GS2 are starting to go down in price too, I just picked up a mint condition one for $200
Yeah, eBay's flooded with used Evo3Ds at the moment (presumably because people are upgrading to the LTE), which has driven the price way down. $150 is about the best you could hope for at this point. OTOH, it's a great environment for anyone looking to buy one.
i got mine on cl for 160$ the phone rooted.. 2 chargers.. 2 stock batterys.. and i trident kraken case... i have had 4 people in 2 days want the phone for 160$ but im waiting till sprint has the LTE for sale to sell it.. cause if i sell my 3d now ill be without a phone till then.. the sprint store said they would give me 80$ for it.. so thats why im selling it on cl

Just bought one for $60. People are stupid. I get it this device can't run LTE; I get it, roger, check. But the power under the hood is still rockin.
Didn't question the dude about the price at all. Purchased it, rooted it, and activated it for my Mom.

I think you got a hell of a deal
If you go to Mexico the best price with a carrier should be about $750 US Dolars.
Got mine yesterday for 80 bucks from a friend doing me a favor. It's great, now I might not need to use my upgrade next year and wait until the full LTE roll out.

I got my Evo 3D on launch day in canada. 2 actually one for me and the wife. It has been the best phone I ever owned. Screen - nice, speed - nice, battery life..... well that has been OK, it lasts a full day I dont think I can complain. But wow $80-$150? thats a great price for an awsome phone.
In Serbia, we`r selling it for around 350 euro.
Just few months ago, the price was around 650 euro.
It`s GSM version

I agree. Definitely keep your eye out for them. New phones come out, people get caught in that new phone craze. Perfect time to snatch them up. Got another 3D a battle of mine is selling for 65. Gonna snatch that one up to and root it for my younger brother.

You had to have purchased your evo from bestbuy and you must show a reciept. Bestbuy called me saturday to let me know that they were getting 25 evos friday and that me and my girlfriend were 5 and 6 on the list. I asked if they were buyin back evos and he said $100 tp $150 depending on condition and you must have geeksquad reciept. I sold mine and my girls on ebay for over $200 but if you bought your evo from bestbuy and are getting your 3d from them this mite be helpful info

Better of privately selling anyway. There are a lot of people out there looking for EVO's. I sold mine yesterday for $220. I placed an ad on Craigslist Friday night and had 3 people the next morning wanting to buy it that day.
Why anyone would want to trade it in and get robbed by BB, RS, or Sprint is beyond me. I can understand if the EVO was a hard device to sell, but there are so many people who are not eligible for upgrades and are willing to pay $200 or more for a used EVO.
So I am using my HTC Touch (Vogue) for a week. Damn I need my Android back! And yes I had Android running on this device but after owning the EVO it was unusable so I loaded back WM 6.5 which definitely runs faster on the Vogue .

Your right. You can get way more selling it on craigslist. I just hope I can find my old blackberry somewhere in the trash so I can connect it until Friday.
I went to the Sprint store today and asked about the buyback program and my Evo 4G. She just asked for my phone number and started typing.. then asked if i pre-ordered the Evo 3D.. i said yes. She kept typing then told me to just come in 2morrow when i pick up the Evo 3D and tell them i want to recycle my phone and i will get $150. She didnt even look at my beat up (but working) Evo 4G.
Im not sure if she put a note on my account or what but she sounded so certain that i bring it in and get my $150 credit. Anyone know for sure?
I hope i get her when i get my Evo 3D tomorrow.. im doubtfull it will be that easy and that they are giving $150 for any working Evo... if so.. winning!
Sprint will give 150 for the EVO and 115 for the EVO Shift...I know-I work for Sprint. They always offer this as well for those that did not know. Also, you can trade up to three phones to really drive that out of pocket cost down.

I am pretty sure if your EVO is not majorly damaged, i.e broken glass, and it turns on, you will get $150 dollars credit on your account for trading it in. EVO 3D for $50 with full upgrade credit.
I guess ill find out tomorrow hehe Thanks for the help.
I wasn't gonna do that...I was gonna sell my evo 4g and accessories on craigslist but I have been reconsidering it....sell the evo to sprint for the 150 and the accessories for 50.
I have an otterbox commuter, HDMI cable, spare batteries, and a stand alone battery charger.
Think all of that is worth 50 bux?
Do they care about sending in the battery? I have two Evos (one upgraded to a 3D) and it would be great to keep the battery as a spare.

Hmm. So I could get something for my Hero? I was thinking of selling it on craigslist, but I'm not sure the demand for a used Hero...
The site said $40 for the Hero.
So wait... if I get the phone thru Sprint, they will buy back my EVO 4G @ $150? Did I need to be a part of a buy-back program like Best Buy? I just pre-ordered with BB!
Nope......

Sprint will buy back the phone.
I took my rooted evo to my local sprint store yestetday and got $150 added to my account on the spot. With my $70 loyalty credit I got my 3d for only a couple of bucks.
They let me keep my sd card and charger.
Easier for me to do instead of selling it.

Sprint will buy back the phones but not the accessories. If you turn in an EVO and a hero the 3d costs you ten bucks. If you want to try and get fifty for a hero on Craigslist you will be waiting a while.

Where I am CL is saturated with them. Over 18 were posted for sale today alone.
I know you leave some money on the table, but the Sprint deal isn't so bad, and with alot less headache and waiting. I was going to go this root but I'm not as excited about the 3D as much anymore so I'm going to keep my Evo.
I dont think you can get more than $200 on craigslist for the Evo 4G and on top of that the internet is probably flooded with people trying to sell their old Evos.. so lots of competition. A few weeks ago people were selling them on ebay/CL for $200+ easily... but now that will just get harder and harder.
I sure hope its easy for me to get my $150.. my phone is beat up and rooted.. but as i said it works and the woman made it seem like id surely/easily get the full $150 credited to my account tomorrow.
I would of traded it on the spot if she asked offered.. but she told me to do it when i pick up my 3D. I hope the quote doesnt go down tomorrow... it shouldnt since every other retailer is offering $150 for the Evo 4g.
fyi..
google sprint buy back.. it will take you to the official buy back program. sell your phone for 150 + any other phone you have. I just did. works just fine.
sold my evo and my old iphone 3g.. i kept my sd card .. just ship the phone itself.

Go to the Sprint buy back website and lock in the $150 price, it's good for 45 days...
You can either mail it in, or go to the store and trade it in for instant credit.

I'm sure many of you have done this to subsidize the cost of our snazzy new beast.
I have the original box (that awful, terrible egg carton thing) and owner's manual. The device itself is a refurb I got from insurance, since my original Evo4G was stolen.
My biggest question is: since it is rooted, is it best to offer it that way? I guess my question is whether there's any market value to it being already rooted and thus getting more from an eBay auction (unless theres a better alternative to eBay that anyone knows). Or maybe advertise the option of: I can send it to you rooted or if you don't want it that way, I can unroot it for you.
If someone wants it rooted, basically I just need to do a full wipe and flash a rooted stock ROM. If they want it unrooted, I believe I need to unroot first, flash a stock ROM, then turn S-ON (might have that in the wrong order).
I hope this is an appropriate thread for this forum (instead of the Evo4G one) as it would be helpful to other people looking for a way to obtain the Evo3D.
My suggestion to you is Craigslist. Sold my hero a month ago for 100 bucks

I sold mine on Ebay for 270 each
Hello,
I sold my 4G for 300 Dollars on Craigslist. I did happen to get a Replacement the week before I listed it. While my original 4G was Rooted, I held off Rooting this one, but did not do the GB Update so that the Buyer would have the option of Rooting or not doing so.
My Upgrade was not supposed to be until September, but I pleaded with Retention and they reset my eligibility. This happened the day after my Refurbished 4G arrived.
I threw in 2 Otterbox Defender Cases, an HTC HDMI Dock, and pointed out the 4G was a 004 Version and was only a week old. I actually received multiple offers and ended up selling to a guy who lives on the same Barrier Island that I do.
I would think it would be best if you could get it back to S-ON and not disclose that it has been Rooted unless someone asks. You could even offer to Root and customize the 4G for the prospective Buyer. It really helped for me as the guy who purchased mine wanted me to Root it, but when he went to Sprint to Activate it he walked out with 2 3VO's instead. I am now trying to help him sell the 4G. I have gotten a few offers around 250, but he wants 300 and I have not exactly killed myself trying to sell it.
Also, I think that sometimes the 4G's Sprint sends out as Recertified are actually new Phones. The one I got sure seemed that way and again was 004.
It helped greatly I sold mine before the 3D's Release. The marketplace has changed since then. There is another Website that offers more than 150 if the 4G is in pristine condition as well. The name eludes me.
Cheers,
JJ
Sprint gives you $150.

I sold my 4G on craigslist for $200 about 90 minutes after I had it posted.
Well, it's VERY EASY.
Sprint will pay $150.00 for your evo 4G in account or store credit. You can either take your EVO 4G to a sprint store, or do it online and ship it to them:
http://www.sprintbuyback.com/
Just did it today at the store and paid only $49.99 for my new 3D!
If it is in good enough shape, I would sell it on eBay... considering I sold a refurbished one with a deadspot on the screen for $200 cash (Fully informed description I might add) You could likely get $250-300 for one in real good condition.
Good luck!!!
Craigslist is probably your best bet if you feel safe using it. Followed by ebay... You could also sell it on these forums which is the choice I took mostly because I wanted my phone to go to someone in the community.

RadioShack gave me $167 on trade for the 3VO. I also traded in my Hero for $50 so had a store credit. I had the boxes and the chargers for both.
I posted my 4G on swappa.com for $250 and it was sold within 2 days. The cool thing is that doesn't matter if you're rooted, people there seem to prefer it. Also if someone is interested, they have the option to buy your phone right away via paypal.

We sold ours on Craigslist for $225 each. $0 for the upgrade. Been doing this for YEARS. Depending on how rapidly you are upgrading you can sell them and profit from the sale.

From what I hear, yes. If I remember right, its specifically for selling/trading android phones.
Sold mine for 230 on craigslist. Might have gotten more on ebay, but it'd barely be with it after dealing with the fees and the scammers.
Sold my Verizon iPhone on craigs. Had 10 offers by morning. Sprint would have bought for $220. So there's always a fallback if you want quick cash. Assume EVO 4g should have similar results.

It's $99.99 on Amazon Wireless right now, but I have a giftcard for $25. I was going to get the ET4G, but they put it back up to $150 from $80 and now I don't really want it.
So is this phone worth $75?
Yes. Get three mystery phones. You'll love them.

Hell no, save yourself a contract and just buy the phone cash from a person on craigslist or online.. they go around like 150 to 200$ off contract so why get into a 1500$+ contract for this phone?? ha

My parents still pay the bill since I'm on contract with them, so that isn't a problem.
This will probably be my last phone on the family plan.

Definitely! I sold my OG Evo for 300, bought the 3D for 470 off amazonwireless off contract, and it's been my favorite phone ever. it's fast, has a great qHD screen, and works really smoothly. plus, it's gonna get ICS early next year! definitely go for it, especially at that price

well that is good, I personally do not know what to say but I would suggest another phone if you can wait to come out early next year perhaps? the Evo 3D is good and has amazing dev's regardless of the slow progress daily but I'm sure a lot is being done in the back ground. I would wait personally but in the end its your choice; not ours.
Sprint contract is finally up so I am looking to sell my beloved photon. Was going to put it on CL but not sure what to ask, not trying to make.a.fortune from it but not really wanting to sell myself short either. I only paid $200 BNIB about 7 months ago probably. Thinking about starting at $150 and see what happens. What do you guys think?
Phone has a invisishield since the day I got it and has had a otterbox commuter about a week after. So screen is perfect, phone has a few scuff marks on the Bezel from the actual otterbox and has a small scratch on one of the bottom corners from the one time I took the pyrrhic off and happend to drop it. Go figure.
Phone would come with original box and accessories as well as the invisishield and otterbox

Sell it on Craigslist. 3 just sold in my area for 250ish I would not accept anything lower than 200 or your getting ripped off. The phone is still considered high end and its one of the very very very few considered a world phone and once north America gets unlocked which I'm sure it will, the phone will have a much higher resell value. I see single core phones like the inspire going for 150-175 in good condition.
