I'll up this to $55

that's what happens with a 3rd place carrier with a cdma network. tmobile phones don't lose value this quickly even though they are in 4th place because they use GSM.

There's a company out there called Rad Tech that will buy your phone for a good deal. Better than 50 bucks. I had to buy a replacement phone real quick and they were selling the Evo 4g for 128. So I can imagine they will probably sell this phone for 189 or so.

I was more or less curious of what this 600 dollar phone was worth a year and a half later..needless to say i stand here in disgust thinking about the 550 dollar depreciation

I wonder if the OG is worth more . . . .
EDIT: Nope, both the OG and the 3D are worth less than $10 according to WalMart. Here's how much it says the Jewel is worth:

HAHAHAHAHAH!!! Now that you put it that way. This is beyond sad and just goes to show you that the market is, one, saturated with too many phones and two a blatant rip off to charge so much for tech.
I do find this very interesting. Looks like I'm going to continue buying my phone off Ebay or Swappa.

Ready to upgrade but...

I went to.the Sprint store to see what can I do to get the 3d for 200 and not for the full price so they told me that I need to renew my contract (which I did on December) and they'll give me $150 for my old EVO 4g so ill getting the 3d for just $50 dollars!! What u guys think?

I can't find any locally... My wife wants an evo after she's used mine (she uses iphone 4 now) so I have to get another but want to see the white in person..
Anyone know if the whites will be on updated software version? If it is that would be a deal breaker for me.

Local Craigslist draws more locals that may be interested. Just meet the buyer at a VZW store to do it.

Craigslist is definitely the way to go. I don't even mess with eBay anymore. When I got rid of my Droid X I posted it on CL and it sold in about 20 minutes.

Here in Albuquerque they're going for 200-275 depending on condition. And considering unlimited data is on its way out you can tack on a bit more. Couldn't tell you how much cause a data plan is a difficult thing to put a value on.

Looks like sprint is launching their own one year trade in program, like t-mo you pay installments for device.

Saw this too. Nothing on the market at least via Sprint makes it worth my dime. Figure if you're going to pay that much for an upgrade, you want the best. Considering ditching HTC with a few of you unless they can get their act together. I like the company, but I desperately hope that they (being HTC, not Sprint) don't go bankrupt.
I got my EVO in December for a dollar, so I suppose I can wait for a new phone until August 2014.

Hmmm, maybe I misread it. It looked to me like you only have to hand over current device if you starting into one up from a position of not being currently eligible for upgrade, early adopter cost, essentially.
