Hello, I am looking to buy an Atrix Lapdock from the ATT store. I don't have a USA credit card which the store requires, but I do have a paypal verified and confirmed address.
Could a kind soul help me order 2 docks? I am sending them to a freight forwarder in Portland OR who will ship them to me in Singapore.
I'm looking to pay a $25 fee per lapdock for your time.
Please send me a PM if keen, I'm looking for someone who has been here long enough and has a high post count.
Thanks
Gerald
Uhh. Sure. While I'm at it do you want me to give my bank info to the guy emailing me from Nigeria so he can give me 7 US mil?

lol i appreciate the sarcasm here thanks guys.
ebay has them for nearly $499 I'm not willing to pay such a premium!
and no one on the xda forum marketplace is selling the docks.
I'll still hold out maybe someone would be willing to help.

thats how much they cost off contract- $499. To get it in the bundle (Phone + Laptop dock) for $500, you have to sign a 2 year contract with the tethering plan, no one will do that!
ATT sells the phones off contract for $399 plus a $100 mail in rebate = $299.

i bought my atrix a week ago for $499 from an AT&T strore and there was no mention of a rebate. where can i find the phone for $399 and where can i find this $100 rebate (for just the phone)?

This is the price for the phone, not for the dock. If the dock was cheap or came with the phone, you would see them for sale everywhere. But as it stands there are only 2 ways to get the dock
1. Pay full price
2. Get a tethering plan and get dock at reduced price.
If someone gets the dock with the tether plan and doesn't like the dock, maybe they will sell it cheaper. But if they can sell it on eBay for full price - why sell it cheaper.
You are a bit misguided on how the pricing works here.
Best Buy website has dock listed at $399. Only available in store, so it won't help OP, but maybe someone else who wants one can find one in store.

I believe he's thinking about a link originally posted in the accessories forum, although I do believe one also must purchase a phone to get this price.

Also Best Buy is selling them for $399, but they are "not available for shipping".

Have you tried buying it from the Motorola store. It is powered by Amazon which I believe accepts PayPal.
So i want to buy the transformer today, and i was wondering where is the best place to buy? I am in the US, in IL, but because of the quality control issues, I want to be able to take it back if I have to. Also, price is an issue, as it seems to vary. A lot of places have it online, but do any stores carry it yet? As for online companies, they are ok, but it would be nice to at least have a store to return to if i need to..I guess another issue would be getting one of the newer models that might have fixed the power cord issues and some QC issues. I searched for an answer, but I didn't find anything really giving advice on where to buy, now that it is actually in stock in some places...thanks!
Amazon.com. Why pay sales tax? I'm in IL also so I share your pain of living in such a crappy state.
lol i hear ya...especially cook county...but amazon only has them for 453 right now? seems like the price keeps moving around...i have prime too so i would do it, but the extra 50 bucks kills it

I seem to be having problems with my pms for some reason...i just sent you a message . Are you visioninc on ebay? cause i have a coupon for ebay so i might just use that for your listing. Few questions though...do you have light bleed at all and to what degree, or dead pixels? and do you have a receipt you could give me for the warranty? Why are you getting rid of it? thanks...
Amazon or Newegg for sure. No taxes and 30-day return/refund with no restocking fee!
I bought mine from Toys R Us on Wednesday for 399.99, plus they gave me a $25 dollar gift card that I used towards the purchase. I'm loving my Transformer so far! I just wish I could figure out how to Tether it with my Blackberry
I got mine in Fry's Burbank, CA. Have not run into any problems with it so far and have not seen and noticeable bleeding either.
Got mine at Newegg for $389 with no tax and free shipping by registering a new accounts and using the "newcustomer10" coupon. Not much of a savings but it was the best deal I could find until the TD one yesterday.
Newegg was also was willing to cross ship when I had to exchange my first Transformer due to some defects.
I bought my 32GB from Amazon. The 16GB was $50 more than the original price. I would recommend Best Buy.

Amazon always sell at retail price. The over-retail must have been a 3rd-party seller.
And yes, Amazon are definitely the best place to buy from now that the shortage is over. Amazing customer service and 30-day hassle-free return.

Psugtooq, are you saying that Newegg sent you a replacement before they received the damaged one back???
I ended up going with newegg...good call on the new customer code...i used it also...amazon had the 16gb 50 over and it was direct through them...i know its not normal but it was so....newegg has been good in the past and I heard alot of crap about td and their shipping...plus it was through ebay too and that can get interesting...great price though

Yep. After I sent back the defective one, I went into live chat and politely asked that Newegg send out a replacement immediately as I didn't want to have to wait 2 weeks for them to process the RMA and issue an exchange. The rep told me to call their customer service 1-800 number and ask for an "advanced replacement." I did so and a replacement was sent out the next day with their standard 3 day shipping (arrived in 2). Their was no additional charge, just the stipulation that my CC will be charged if the original isn't received within 30 days.
Pardon me if I am posting at a wrong place or some awkward question but I need help, please.
I am looking for T-mobile version of HTC HD2, one comes in black box and has red/green button. But I can't find one. There are some in ebay and amazon, but what looks like either the seller are not 100% reliable or maybe the package is not unopened/intact. When I sent those supplier a mail, they told me that they had to open the box to see if all the contents are there or not. Isn't that really funny excuse that a product from T-mobile needed a checking if it is perfect or not? What worrying me is about the 16 GB micro sd card which the seller can replace with a cheap chinese one. So I am looking for 100% intact and sealed, T-mobile carrier locked phone, I will unlock it later myself. Can anyone please tell me where to get one fresh piece and how much it can cost with no contract?
My location is New York, NY-11377.
Why don't you buy straight from amazon, and not a third party seller?
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...311200878&sr=8-2&seller=&colid=&condition=new
Cost: $299.99
To get a brand new t-mobile one you would have to get it from a t-mobile store or dealer and buy it out right if you can find one that is still selling them. Your best bet is Craigslist but don't rush, some one honest is bound to post one in your listing. I'm a T-mobile dealer and we might have some brand new in our warehouse. PM me if you are interested.
I'm not sure why the stress to have new unopened hd2. I use to sell on ebay and if you complete your order via paypal you'll be covered if something went wrong. Plus the 16gb that comes with the phone isn't a really good sd card. I would go with a 8gb class 6 or higher. Much better then 16gb class 2. I personally got a hd2 off ebay for $120 & then bought a transcend 8gb class 10 on ebay for $15 so my total cost was only $135. They do have new unopened hd2 on there but you'd really have to keep looking. Plus ask questions to. If they say something in the listing that's not true or if they don't list something and you have a problem with the phone you can always return it. Paypal is very good about that.

Thanks htccraze for your reply, actually I was looking to buy 2 units, one is for my younger brother who is very perfectionist and always look for something fresh and new to explore, actually he gets it interesting. I have gifted him many gadgets and all where fresh, and you can't imagine the happiness I see on his face.
If it was for me only, I could grab the amazon one, as I need this for my regular android dev purposes.
I hope to take a look at nearest T-mobile store in NY.
Newegg has em for $280 unlocked, not sure if it comes with the class 2 16gb sd or not. I recommend upgrading to a much faster card anyways.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...2111-Index-_-NoContractPhones-_-75502039-L06D
If I recall correctly, T-mobile has recently got the HD2 in stock, you can check their website. by the way, why is there a date within your question's title?
yeah i can see your point now. since its a gift for someone i would advise to get a new device. if your looking to buy them out right without a upgrade the lowest i've seen them is $269.99 on ebay listed here. it says new and in original packageing but i would still make sure its unopened by asking the seller.
i did see someone said they bought an hd2 with they're upgrade for $50 or something like that which i do see on they're website its available for $360 without the upgrade. also if your due for an upgrade sometime soon you can buy a phone a lot cheaper from places like wirefly.com & letstalk.com over the t-mobile store. they are new devices and come unopened and can save you about $80-$150 by buying them from there over the t-mobile store. i've even hunted down promo codes for phones i bought in the past from both sites and i was able to get a free bluetook from letstalk & i saved $80 off my order on wirefly. if you do go into the store ask them if they can come down on they're price at all because i have seen them do it. they offered me $50 off the price they listed because i said i seen it much cheaper online. just be friendly and maybe you could get a similiar offer.

Thanks for the great support and idea, I will now hunt for deal. by the way, what upgrade you were talking about? the rom? if it is so, then me and my brother will be running windows phone 7 and android dual boot, so do i need that upgrade?
and if it is not that upgrade then what you were pointing?
the one ebay you showed I talked to them, and they replied that they had to open the box to see if the content are there or not, how funny, a product from t-mobile needed inspection!!!!
Thanks again.
yea it seems that a lot of people on ebay inspect a phone and its in great "used" shape they'll try to list it as new. the easiest way to find out if its new or not is buy taking the back cover off and looking for dust anyway. but anyway. the upgrade i was talking about is lets say you have a contract with t-mobile every two years you can get a new phone and renew your contract. by doing so you can get a phone much cheaper because your signing on to a new two year contract with them. normally they knock off a couple hundred dollars when your able to do an upgrade.
here is an example of buying a phone at wirefly with an upgrade: t-mobile.com has the mytouch 4g listed for $129.99 shown here. but if you qualify for a two year upgrade you can get the same phone from wirefly for free shown here. thats a $130 savings for the same phone using the same upgrade just buying it at a different place. this price is only good if you are a new customer or if you qualify for an upgrade. you can check to see if you do qualify for one from the site but i checked earlier and they said check back later. you can also contact t-mobile and ask them when you'll be due for one or if you know when you joined with t-mobile just add two years and thats when you'll be due for one. i joined in oct of 2009 so i will be due for my upgrade this coming oct 2011.
if you aren't due for an upgrade any time soon then your best bet would be to try online store's like circuit city and radioshack or any place like that really. both of those places though i think except promo codes so if you can hunt one down you'll be able to save some money that way.

i'm looking for a new tablet and found a refub of NC for 120$ is a refub a good idea?
with all the shipping cost it will go up to 169$, there are also other no name tablets (some of them are good) for this price (with the shipping...)
need some advice
Yes, great deal. I have bought one new nook and one refurb and you could not tell the difference. Do NOT go with a no name tablet or you will be crusing trying to do anything. The Nook is a great low priced tablet that is very hackable and easy to use. Plus it is unbrickable and can boot from an SD card

Ditto on buying a refurbished one. I also bought one new and one refurbished and could not tell difference. But check out the refurbished ones being sold on eBay directly by B&N for $119.00 plus sales tax and free shipping. Look at posts here in this thread for a direct link.
I have a refurb also that I got from Overstock. It was shipped from B&N. Paid 139.
It was in perfect condition with no issues. 1 year warranty.
So...at 119....it is a steal.
I'm glad to see that you guys have good luck with your refurbs. I ordered one from B&N on Ebay last night. $119 plus $9.29 OK sales tax. I can't wait for it to get here.

Refurb is even better than new. They rigorously test the refurbs so they are pristine.
Barnes & Noble is presently selling them on eBay for $129 with free shipping... And since you are essentially buying from B&N warranty issue should also be no problem.
I scored one for 119 plus 7 dollars missouri tax on Sunday night. Its gonna be a xmas present for a 4 year old who won't leave his mommies evo3d alone. I look forward to being part of your community.

It's a great idea mate. I bought mine refurbished with a 1 year warrenty and I'm happy as can be. Buying a NC new at this stage would be a waste in my options as long as you get it from a good source with a trustworthy warrenty furbed.
Get a good deal from B&N with ebates!
Ok, so I learned that ebates doesn't give cash back on Nook purchases. Now if you buy B&N gift cards (not customizable ones), that should qualify for cash back (8% as of now 11/30/11). B&N also has a $10 eGift card for every $100 gift card purchased promotion ($10 to be given after Christmas 12/26/11). Buy $200 in gift cards and get $20 later. You will also qualify for first ebates $10 gift card and cash back ($200 x 8% = $16). So if you're willing to wait for gift cards and cash back later, you can spend $200 and get $30 back in gift cards and $16 cash back via ebates!
http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referrerid=57425AA/uPYCeMjozi1Qkw==
Found a coupon for $10 gift card for $50 purchased at Target (in store only). Expires 12/3/11.
http://coupons.target.com/facebook-friends-and-fans-coupons
Don't forget to signup with ebates to get cash back and $10 gift card (Target, B&N, others..).

Got one from the vzn store!! Thanks man. Dock for $15 and leather folio case for the same price

I know the OP was able to grab what they needed from Verizon, but for others who may be looking, another option is the HD Speaker Dock. If you can FIND one, they're going for $20 new from Verizon as clearance (prolly to make room for the Xyboard accessories). I went in person to a VW store and lucked out, getting the last one they had. I don't think (not willing to try it) you can plug the more powerful power source straight into the Xoom itself as an alternative to using the dock, but I have to say having the HDMI port in the back of the dock and the speakers is pretty nice, at $20 a pop.
I picked up a couple at a local Staples for $1.50 each. I have one extra I don't really see using.
If you're local in central CT I'd happy to give it away to someone who would use it.
