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 I know some people are have switched to the Desire and stuff, well it may seem cool now it is kinda outdated and the "next gen" phones are coming out next year as well.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
Hi all,
I've just seen a HTC Flyer for sale online (forgive me for not revealing my sources).
It's a fairly reputable auction site and 'apparently' it's 3 months new, 16GB Wi-Fi version with case, box, headphones, pen and a free 32GB MicroSD Card... looks ok in the pictures for cosmetic damage.
Seller wants £100 for it... What do you all think? Is it worth it? I know they still RRP for around £300+, so it could be a bargain!
Unsure.
cheers,
T-L-H
Lessee....that's about 150 USD, so yeah...thats a good deal.
I dunno what "3 months new" means but you'd be hard pressed to find a flyer that cheap over here even used. Best price I've seen is 180 USD refurbished.
I am selling mine on Swappa, it comes with more than just the unit, but am asking $335 for it.
http://swappa.com/listing/TKX494/view
Mine is listed in the XDA Marketplace w/ Scribe, Otterbox Case, charging dock and Screen Protectors.
Hi all,
I'll take a look at what you're offering but I don't think it'll compare to £100!
If anyone has a 3g version for sale, send me a pm so we can work something out (I'm in Texas).
Thats a fantastic deal. Maybe too good to be true. Is the seller reputable?
If its an auction, then 100 pounds is just the starting price or the current bid? Or a "buy it now" price?
If its just the starting price or current price, keep in mind that the huge majority of auction bidding happens in the last couple hours leading up to the auction end, even the last couple MINUTES.
With any online auction, make sure the seller (not just the website) has a good reputation. I typically will not even consider buying from somebody that has less then something like a 98% rating. A marginal or poor rating means, at a minimum, that the seller is not good at communicating (responding to inquiries or issues), and /or slow at shipping (none of which you want). Worst case, a bad rating means that they are a scam artist.
I'm not sure why people keep mentioning auctions or buy it now prices.
All I said was that the seller wants £100 for it, and that's the flat price.
I think it's an ok deal.

You said in your OP that it was on an auction website. So unless you explicitly note otherwise we might assume its . . . (wait for it) . . . AN AUCTION!!!!! Imagine that!!!
Also, I'm the only one that mentioned auctions or buy it now price, so I don't know why you're on about "why people keep mentioning . . .".
You haven't given many details, so its hard for anyone to say whether its a good deal or not. Is it available straight from this "fairly reputable auction site", or is it the type of site where individuals post things for sale (like eBay). If its an individual seller, do they have a good rating?
I have a HTC View that I would sell for $240 + shipping if anyone is interested, I think I'm going to list it in the XDA market place.
Flyer
Do you have a link to your Flyer on MarketPLace?
thx
The damn phone is on backorder every where in the US at least. Looked online at amazon and eBay's uk sites and they don't even have any period. Not sure if the phone has even hit Europe yet. I've been holding out for the 6GB model but I am tired of my GS6 Edge and it's broken screen and my backup phone is like a 2013 Moto x and yeah it sucks.
I'm pretty sure, I don't think om understand how much people will buy their stuff if they quit messing around and actually make an excellent product.
Heard from ZTE stock is ready, should be back on sale very very soon!
They have been in business since 1985. I am pretty sure this was a marketing ploy used to generate interest and demand for their product. It is human nature to want what we cannot have. Just be patient.

Well it was first released in the Chinese market. From what I can tell, due to carriers and a bunch of restrictions with selling stuff in the US, some companies are very cautious. First Axon needed to test the waters with a lower scale launch.
Also don't hate on the OG Moto X. It's seriously one of the best devices ever, up there with the Nexuses.
I'm glad I pre-ordered for the first run. This is one of the best phone values I've had in a long time, comparable to the Oneplus One when it released. Keep the prices low and specs high, engage the xda community, keep the warranty, and I will continue to be a customer.
I think it should be getting MORE attention. It is time the big name brands take a hit in their pricing and provide affordable flagships, however they need to do s, otherwise I will continue to buy the high value chinese brands.

I agree, for $400 (especially + giftcard and headphones) its a great deal. The two major cons of the device are the reception, and camera. Minor quirks with software can be fixed, and the capacitive button locations can be gotten used to. As a device I'd give it a 7.5/10, as a device that costs $400, 8.8/10. I am still surprised that it has an s6's amoled, audio that is easily top 3, etc. To me, the only thing that is making me question this phone is the reception, other than that I am completely happy with it even with the other issues.
Galaxy Note 7 on back order also so cut ZTE some slack. I can name several flagship phones that sold out or back ordered in the first month or 2 and no one lost their mindss like people are doing with ZTE.
ZTE just told me that the phone came to the USA market officially before the EU market so the USA version may seem better than EU.
The Official EU release is coming very soon though this month it looks like.
They promise that they provide good service to all users around the world and not just the USA

Dude, "good service" for me includes unlockable bootloader for everybody, not just americans. Ordering a oneplus 3 next week, once the graphite color is available. Gold is ugly as hell. Don't only women buy gold phones? I only have seen women and gay dudes with gold phones
I received my ZTE Axon 7 Gold Colour today in Frankfurt, Germany.
I ordered on the 31st of August and picked it up at Media Market this afternoon (02.09.)
It was sold out in a day once it appeared on the German price comparison website idealo.
I am loving the sleek build of the phone so far and its speed but funny enough, the listening sound appears to be too low even on high volume and I cannot find any theme store anywhere as the stock UI is ugly as hell.
I will keep going through it to see its strength and weaknesses.

What are the versions available in the EU or UK market?
I'm planning to buy a Chinese version, 4GB+128GB for about 2900RMB, 330 GBP, during my China trip later this month. But I'm slightly concerned that I wont be receiving OTA updates for EU markets afterwards.

OTA updates aren't based on where you currently are located. They're based on the region of the device. A Chinese A7 will only be getting the Chinese OTAs.

I think this may be like the OnePlus One in that it's an exceptional package for the price. The Axon 8 or whatever going forward will likely have less bang for buck as with OnePlus Two/X because of demand.
I'm hoping that for once being an early adopter (albeit waiting 6 weeks) will pay off with a phone that I will get a good two-three years out of.

my local best buy has the grey version in stock today, less than 3. im really contemplating exchanging my nexus 6p for it. its a tough decision because i love android 7.0 but the battery life and lcd is subpar on the 6p. your getting more bang for buck with the axon. the only concern i have is getting ota updates and any rom development.

If you go to the local ZTE USA website, you can order the phone. According to their website and this device will ship prior to 9/9. That is but a few days, but since they already know when it will shipband this has been on their site for several weeks, this was probably a marketing ploy more than likely. The hope to be to increase demand by reducing supply. I am quite sure, this company of professionals, that has been in business since 1985, did not make a rookie mistake like this.

I suspect that Best Buy is getting first dibs on the latest batch, possibly to make up for not receiving any units from the August batch (they all went to ZTE/Newegg/B&H and some to Amazon).

I was just in Germany last week and it wasnt in stock at all
Untill I ordered it on media markt and it arrived on the day after
Sent from my ZTE Axon 7
Picked up my Grey from BestBuy yesterday from pre-order. The retail launch ones are supposed to go on sale later this week.
I managed to get the grey one today at a Best Buy 45 miles from me, they only had one and no idea when or if the store will get more stock.
It's mighty nice though, I bought to replace my Note 7, seems much faster
Just wondering if anyone knows when this phone will be available on contract in the UK?
The phone is available on Amazon UK and a few other online retailers. But doesn't seem to be in any high street shops, no phone shops like Carphone Warehouse (who hadn't even heard of it when I asked) and I can't find so much of a mention anywhere about being available or even coming soon on any contract providers (EE, Vodaphone, O2 ect).
Is the phone just not officially released yet in the UK?, if so anyone know when its official release is?
I guess it's a very low key launch here in UK. Certainly anyone wandering into a phone shop will have no idea it there is such a thing. Local Carphone Warehouse/PC World has a display with Moto phones on but no Z or Z Play. Early days yet and you may find it with one of the online retailers offering contracts but can't see Vodafone/EE etc offering it direct. Could be wrong ... frequently am
Seems odd if they don't start offering it for contract on all the major providers at some point in the near future, I mean the Moto X is widely available.
Just bought myself one off ebay in brand new condition for £350 anyway though so never mind I suppose
Be interested to know what you think of it once you get it.
I have an X Style and although I've got on well with it I find myself looking for the next thing. I might have given a moto z a try but not keen on paying £500 for a new one.
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
