Like the Galaxy S2?
I really hope not!
I've been reading about people who have dev Rezounds (S-Off). Where would someone buy such phone?
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using Tapatalk
Well, it's not so much that these people bought them from a store, but rather they were either part of the Dev team(testers) or reviewers. A lot of times the manufacturer doesn't ask for them back so these people will either keep them or sell them.
You'll sometimes find people in the market place here selling them or on Ebay.
Oh ok. Well if anybody is selling one, I'd like to buy it.

Go to the Marketplace here & browse the for sale ads and/or post an ad that you want to buy one there. Oddly though, one of my Thunderbolts i had gotten from Ebay. The listing didn't even say it was a dev phone but when i received it and found out i was like "cool!"
I love my phone and want to buy another one for a spare.
I have an upgrade available but don't want to use it, I would rather just buy a phone outright.
What is the best deal anybody has found to buy a brand new Rezound outright??
Amazon.

Right, but I was kinda hoping to find it somewhere for under $600........
No one in their right mind would sell a new rezound outright/without contract/upgrade for much cheaper than that.

So are the ones for sale on ebay claiming to be new in the box for just over $400 a scam??

Well no. Sometimes ebay sellers have a "surplus" of new phones and try to clear them out at a high-midrange price before the demand goes down. If it were me, I'd go the ebay route. If there's a problem with it, ebay guarantees returns and all that. I never buy directly from a person without a middleman.

I bought my Rezound new, sealed in the box from a Verizon employee who won it at work in a contest. They already had one and needed some cash.
I paid $200.00 cash for it (after ESN was verified, etc.)
Might be the BEST 200 bucks I have ever spent.
So back to the question, watch Craigslist and have the seller meet you at at VZW store to verify the ESN. You might not find NIB, but you should be able to get a good used one for a very reasonable price.
What he said. ^^^^

I have to agree with chef Thomas I've bought a whole lot of phones on eBay brand new, around a lil over 400 sounds right for that market.
I'd go that route or craigslist local. Sometimes there's similar deals in your local area and you can do the deal in person just get the ESN ahead of time, and check it then and also check it at time of purchase.
There's a tool for that by the way I don't have a link handy but can send you one.
If you buy a phone from.an individual make sure when you send them the money it clearly states it's a purchase of a phone, because you can dispute the payment and get your money back but if its marked as a gift your stuck like chuck, it used to be that way at least.

I paid $350 for a mint condition rezound on eBay about 3 months ago. It also came with an extended battery and a car dock. I feel like it was a fair deal.
Take your time and you will find a deal.

I'm guessing you are under contract so if rezound was on the acct the esn will be blocked until you pay the etf.

Yes I just ported my number to Google Voice and waiting for that to go through to automatically cancel my contract. I am going to pay Verizon what they need right after the number is ported. That's why I was waiting to post the sale on swappa. I wanted to make sure all was set with Verizon first.

good luck with that. Bestbuy just told me on thursday that they are no longer price matching phones. Wouldn't price match for amazon wireless price. Said it came from corporate office.
Post here if you succeed.
That is weird. Best Buy price matched the amazon $149.99 price last week when we bought them. Also Endadget posted today that Best Buy was going to match online retailers permanently. The article specifically mentions Best Buy Mobile and cell phones, and even mentions price matching Amazon.

From what I read online, they will only pricematch online-only pricing if you buy from their online front. But when I was in store just this evening, they told me they dont really care and pricematch everyone.I got them to pricematch Dell.com and then at the register the guy hooked me up (probably since we talked about rooting for ages) and punched 99.99 in. The manager came over, didnt question a thing, and I got my Verizon Note 2 for $108 lol. Time to load up on accessories!

Good catch. I admit, I just glanced over it.
I go to Best Buy a few times a week. And they always do a great job of price matching. I havent gotten push back on it in a long time. I actually prefer shopping there because of their price matching, especially up to 60 days after purchase!

No indication on how long the price will remain, but Samsung phones have been all weird lately at Sam's Club. I've been watching the GS3 fluctuate from $200 down to 96 cents (Black Friday), up to $150 and now at $99 all within 2 months.
Debating myself to get another one of these and selling it, but not sure if that's a crazy thought.
If you have guys have any questions on Sam's Club lemme know, I've been working at a club's kiosk for 7 months now.

And they only tax you on the sales price 98.88 not 699 whatever.
If anything the sale will last for another week unless it changes today. Most stores received over 20 notes. There was no advertising.

The only thing that would drive me away is I don't like reserve auctions. Instead of playing the hidden reserve game with your potential buyers, just be up front with them and set your starting bid at the very least amount you would accept (around $600-$625 I would imagine?), and set the Buy It Now price at the high end of what other eBay sellers are actually selling their phones for. Just my opinion of course. This will also weed out the less serious bidders who will try to low-ball you. If you're worried about missing out on bids, do you really want people who won't pay $600+ bidding on your phone, when you know damn well it will sell for at least that amount?
One more thing - be prepared to give a prospective buyer the IMEI number off your phone (if they ask for it) so they can check to see if it's on the AT&T black list. Of course, I'm not implying you're a thief or anything. I just had a friend that bought a used AT&T iPhone off of Craigslist. When he went to activate it, AT&T wouldn't do it because it had been reported as stolen, and I think the carriers share this list nowadays. So he now basically has a wifi-only iPod touch that no carrier will touch.
Noted, and changes made. Thanks for the tip. I hope my first time selling something on eBay goes over well lol.

Wow I didn't know that. Doing a quick google search, this looks to be a brand new change that eBay implemented on May 1st. You might re-think my strategy then. I didn't know they forced you to do that now. I'd feel bad if I screwed up your auction.
Yeah but I mean... Most retail places it's $600-700 plus I'm throwing in $100 urbeats that are HTC branded. I'm just gonna see what happens.

I have done well selling my phone's using buy it now or best offer. I usually list it for $50 over what I actually want. At $725 I imagine you would get offers for st least 650 if not more. If you can throw in a case along with those head phones you will get some pretty good offers. I had a job selling stuff on EBay for 3 years and rarely ever did an auction. If you really want to do a timed auction make it end on a Sunday night at around 9pm eastern time.

$55 if you sell for $550.
And if you use paypal they will take a percentage as well. I sold my old HTC one x+ on ebay after not using them for years and was shocked at how much they took from me on the purchase. I sold the phone for $365 and after fees from ebay (~$38) and paypal (~$15) I lost 15% in fees. My fault I should of checked their new policy but never again
