So I had too many phones for 2 users and needed to sell whatever sells....
Of Course one of them ended up being the Nexus One (Stupid iPhone 32GB wouldn't sell). So from being the owner of 2 Nexus Ones, now I'm down to none.
If this sounds like a desperate plea... that's cause IT IS. =) I was down to using the iPhone 3GS and couldn't last more than 6 hours until I traded it for an X10.
I'm looking for a Nexus One that works for Rogers, so if you're thinking of selling yours, let me know. I'm only looking to buy local so no shipping please.
I'm located in Toronto so can meet anywhere in the GTA.
My apologies ahead of time if this needs to go to another forum.
Look here please, thread closed.

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.

I will be visiting the T-mobile store, however yesterday I tried online and the HD2 was out of stock.
I put date because the forum guideline mentioned this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915650

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 was trying to PM you but I don't know why the message is not going, checking the PM Sent Message box, it is showing 0, that means the message was not sent, I tried twice. If you can PM, then msg me.
I tried wirefly and other place, but no HD2 available there.
Hey guys.
Iv'e just ordered a white galaxy note from ebay, the seller is in the US, and someone is picking up the phone for me in the US and bringing it to me.
The price difference is 250$ for a black one, and 270$ for a while one.
I'll be getting it in about 3 weeks, and I'm happy to join the club
Cya
Did the same thing yesterday will receive mine it 2 weeks
Mines on the delivery truck. Might make an unboxing vid of it for my website (www.techinferno.com)
Can you post a link to item on eBay?
Hi! Can you post a link to item on eBay?
It's a bit suspicious, since US is not within first markets to get the device in this case, how come someone in US has it to be sold on eBay? Especially in White, I have not yet seen White Galaxy Note for sale anywhere in Europe.
I am myself waiting for White to be available, hopefully with 32 GB and NFC.
P.S. If anyone spots White one for sale somewhere, please post a link. Thanks!

mistaken post my bad
Expansys eBay store has the galaxy nexus for $575 + like $5 shipping... The only catch is its a open box item.. This is my first time opening a thread, Can I post the link or no?
Edit: I see other threads that post links so:
http://stores.ebay.com/eXpansys-USA-Store
I really want in on this but I'm hesitant knowing that it could be one of the ones somebody returned because of excessive banding, or other screen issues. Manufacturers and retailers usually don't consider that a problem and send them back out.

I bought mine from one of those deal sites for $565 shipped. Came in all original packaging. The only problem was the package seal was broken. I think reseller opened it to test the phone before shipment since it's an international phone. Other than that it's perfect!
Unfortunately he doesn't ship international
I also got my Galaxy Nexus from an open box deal via their eBay store and when I got it I couldn't figure out why it was returned. It was in absolute mint condition, couldn't tell it had ever been used. Accessories were still sealed even.

Same here man, mine arrived super mint with no problems at all.
down to 560
Edit: I posted the below deal this morning but it was pointed out in the replies that an even steeper Nexus 6 discount was announced today (see Phandroid link below). The 32 GB Nexus 6 is now available for $500 from Best Buy and also the Google Store (64 GB for $550).
I wish to highlight a Nexus 6 deal which I could not find listed anywhere else on XDA Dev or by Google search. The unlocked Nexus 6 is available for $550 at Best Buy. To obtain it at this price, one simply needs to ask in store for the unlocked Nexus 6 and then ask for a price match against T-mobile's online store, where the phone is currently on sale for $549.84. I also called Best Buy customer service and was informed by a representative that this price match should apply in all stores and to any purchases made from the Best Buy online store.
I can confirm this approach can work, since I was able to obtain a Nexus 6 for $549.84 in store from a Best Buy store this last weekend. However, I also found a Best Buy forum post where it was claimed that the price match was initially not honored (unfortunately I cannot include the link since I am a new member). Therefore, the ease of this approach may vary according to the representative one encounters.
As an additional note, T-mobile starter kits, which include a nano SIM, are currently on sale at Best Buy for $5. Thus one can set up an unlocked Nexus 6 on T mobile for ~$555 plus tax.
I apologize if I posted this thread in the wrong place or duplicated a pre existing thread. I will monitor the thread and delete/repost if necessary.
Is there any advantage (Other than the price right now) to buying the unlocked version -vs- the carrier specific one?

The ATT and Verizon are locked to their respective carrier. However once you have them paid off for the device you can get it unloved to work on other carriers.
The hard was is all the same.

Thanks. I'm thinking of getting one but I currently have the Note 3 on ATT and they use diff sim cards. I was going to simply pop mine in. Seems like I have to get a nano sim and add another line. I hate that the carriers have us by the sacs.

If you get one you don't have to add a line just have AT&T switch Sims and phone.
You would have to buy out right. With the T-Mobile $100 off deal is a great way to save some money. Best Buy will match the price.
Also Best Buy is selling the 64gb version for $550 not the 32gb Verizon and AT&T sells.
No need for price match anymore.

Thanks, I just saw that too! Google says that TMO doesn't price match, but I'm still in my 14 day window for the one I bought from them. Has anyone had any luck getting them to price match, or at least allow a return without their restocking fee?
