yeah, i checked, no broken ones on amazon, and broken ones on ebay are $200+....
not sure why as sites are only offering 50-100 for the one max! >.<

You probably could find one in the hood where someone is selling one they stole for drug money other then that you need to stop looking.

USB Jig on Amazon? (No Ebay)

I wanted to make my own but I couldn't find a store selling resistors anywhere in my country (Jordan), including RadioShack, sad I know.
Anyway my only option is to buy from Amazon and ship internationally to my country, so eBay is out of the question.
So my question is, did anyone buy one from Amazon? I would appreciate a link. And how are they usually packaged?
Thanks.
I found the $9.99 one but I'd like some cheaper alternatives.
Created my own, worked like a charm and has cost me less than $3. Wish I haven't ordered the one above lol. Oh well, could use spare one.
If anyone needs help creating one drop me a message.

Buying a digitizer

My digitizer broke a while ago and now that I got a job I was looking to buy a new one, but I can't spend a lot of money on it, yet I have the feeling the ones I'm seeing on ebay for $30 will be pretty cheap and will break easily. Does anyone know how much an official digitizer, or at least a good OEM one is selling for nowadays? A friend of mine is going to the US next month so I will ask her to buy me one there as it will be much more cheaper than buying one on my country. I'm looking to spend less than 100 dollars on it, I wouldn't be able to afford anything more than that.
Thanks!
I've heard there are some quite reputable sellers on Amazon. You should be able to get a decent one for $30-$40. Plus, Amazon has a free shipping option for orders of $25 or more (at least in the US).
I bought a cheap one of ebay from China or Hong kong and its been fine for over 6 months

Buy one new with a frame (not just the glass). I've done a few. Also, follow a guide that also removes the LCD. Do not fall pray to trying to thread the digitizer ribbon through the whole as you risk ripping it. Figure up to $40 is normal. I had new last week where the new digitizer was no good, so be prepared to do the work more than once and take your time.

I got one on Amazon 33.00 it didn't work after 3 it works great only played for 1 and they refunded me on the one I have installed now and working they honor the Warranty the ribbons are not genuine tear easy have to be very careful.and remove the LCD makes it easy to prevent damage to digitizer ribbon.

Can you tell me which one you bought? I need to buy one and I want to be sure to buy one that will work.
I have found that it can be hit or miss and have had both good and bad product from the same supplier. They are all untested digitizers.

I'm based in India, and the seller was "India" based on the ebay address, but when I got the product, it was shipped from HongKong. I can send the details of the supplier who had send the digitizer to me. I do not know about the authenticity of this HongKong Based supplier though!!
And as said above, it can be a hit or miss from the same supplier too.
i just installed a new digitizer on my atrix, it is a little hesitant at times but it works great. got it on ebay from a seller in New Orleans. I can dig up seller store info if ya want!

HTC OEM car dock - D160

Ok, I have been looking for a reasonable place to get one but having no luck.
On Amazon all the cheapest was $66-$70 but all the stores had horrible reviews.
Ebay, all the ones I would consider legit are in the UK, and HTC website is saying back ordered for 3-6 WEEKS!!
Anyone know where else I can look for the OEM dock?
Do you not want to buy it through amazon because of the reviews or the price? It's the same device not matter where you get it. And with it being so new, I doubt you will find it discounted anywhere. Especially if it is on backorder. So either buy it on Amazon, or find a different option.

The reviews primarily. All the options are through 3rd party sellers and all the reviews are crap. I'd prefer Amazon over Ebay though
Well if you're looking to get it through a different party ANYWAY why not just get the one off Amazon?? Maybe I'm reaidng this wrong but you don't want to buy a product off amazon because it has bad reviews but want to still buy the exact same product somewhere else?
Are the reviews that the seller is bad?

The reviews for the 3rd party sellers are mid 80% or lower.
Think of it as buying from an ebay seller who has an 85% rating.
I'll probably just order it from HTC directly and wait the backordered time.
I got mine off eBay from NJ with best offer $38 free shipping

Trying to sell my Note on eBay

Hello everyone!
I upgraded to the Samsung Galaxy S4 last week. It's pretty awesome. But that's not why I'm here.
I've been trying to sell my Note on eBay. I've listed it two different times. Once was with a Buy It Now and it was bought within a minute of me listing it. Guy never paid. It was a scam. So, I blocked him. Next time I listed it I did an auction style. At the last minute someone with a feedback score of 100%, but only 3 feedbacks bid a high amount. Now that person isn't contacting me and has not paid.
Just curious if anyone else has experienced anything like this?
So is this an eBay question, or you trying to sell your device?
Either way I think you're in the wrong forum.

I am trying to sell my device, but not on here. Wasn't sure where to post this, so I picked here.
This is what you get with ebay. If they find something better/cheaper, they can flake out.
I am not surprised and you shouldn't be either. Try posting on local classified or Craigslist, and sell it face-to-face.

Craigslist has more flakers than eBay does. At least with eBay you have some protection. On Craigslist you have to meet up with the person which can be more of a hassle if the person does not show up or tries to rob you. You can end up selling it for more on Craigslist but there are more risks involved.
To the OP, I would repost it on eBay and file a complaint against the people that flaked on the auction. I've sold lots of things on eBay and I've also had people bail on me when they won the auction. It happens so don't feel that it is the norm. You just got flaked on twice.
If I were you, I'd repost it on eBay and put it on Craigslist. Just make sure you do not post your phone number or email address on Craigslist. Have the person that is interested in your phone leave you their phone number so that you could call them. Also, make sure you meet up at a public place such as a mall or store. I don't recommend meeting at your house or theirs. Good luck.
If your phone works, go hit up swappa, they charge $15 to sell it, but it's as secure as you get. I've bought my prime there and it was quick smooth and easy.
I buy and sell a lot on ebay, with 100% positives.
if you take GOOD pics of your Note, explain the condition accurately, and make it a nice looking listing, with a responsible start price [say 190 for instance] and you have 98 to 100% feedback rating, you'll get it done. ship it flat rate padded envelope so no one is confused about what shipping is.
for whatever reason [supply, probably] the i717 does not bring quite as much as the t-mo version, all other things considered.
both great handsets imo.

Cheap Pocophone Deal or Scam?

Hi guys, came across this deal for a F1 for $84 AUD, shipped on eBay. I have a feeling it's a scam, but all the details seem to be pretty legit. Worth it to take a risk and just file a dispute on eBay and/or Paypal if the phone never turns up or isn't a genuine one?
EDIT: Forgot to add the eBay link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Unlocked-N...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
Price sounds as fishy as it could be. Better to stay away from such deals. Who knows if it's a refurbished device or one with substandard parts.

Yeah, I'm thinking that too, but I sort of want to give it a go as a backup device and a base to live the good old days of custom ROMS and so on... I've updated the OP with the eBay link, it does look pretty legit aside from the price
wow , very interesting deal, hmmm the seller is a member since 2002 , no joke ,even earlier then me , but still skeptical about the price , could be clones
It's weird that the seller has 100% rating, the seller has only 7 feedback this year.
Even though the seller seems legit, it's weird that they can sell a newly launched device for so less, its quite tempting though.
Tried the link. Either the link is broken or the phone has been removed by eBay or the seller. ??
Yes, the listing was posted from hacked account as per eBay and now they are offering refunds
That's a shame, solid on eBay's part for discovering it pretty quickly and redoing everything though
if it's too good to be true on ebay, it's a hacked account 99.99%. if you have the time and patience go for it. 99.99% of the time , you will be wasting time and effort.
Was it one off hack account or mass ? Hmmm thinking to delete mine old account
