How much can I sell my G1 for? (not selling it now, just inquiring price estimates)

It's rooted with CM 4.2.8
Includes an 8G microSDHC class-6 card
And recently switched to using RA-dream-v1.5.2 for recovery.
No case/holster.
Does have a screen protector.
It has the tiniest 1/8 inch long hairline scratch on the screen itself. It does not distort any viewing. Otherwise, has no other scratches on it.
What do you think I can sell it for?
I'm planning on getting the Nexus One when released.
My wife doesn't want my G1 - so I may sell it. Am just curious.

they usually go for between 100 and 220(max, usually 200) but i would check craigslist and ebay if i were you...

I was hoping for $100, as it's a year old.
Im glad to hear $200 is possible.
Thanks oshizzle!

160 is cheap for a decent one. If it had a cracked screen I could see 100 being a possibility, but 150 at least if that's the only scratch.

It's insane what the freaking G1 will sell for on ebay.
If you choose to sell it do yourself a favor first, get it unlocked.
Unlocked phones seem to add $75 to the going rate.
If its clean, rooted with a current mod, and unlocked....$140-$175
I fail to understand why a phone that, I can get for $129.99 with tmobile, will sell for $129 on ebay ... broken.
I watched an auction for one that had OBVIOUSLY been run over by a car.
The guy even said, all the plastic parts are cracked or broken. The screen is broken, it does not work, the thing is falling apart. It's junk!
The freaking thing sold for $92.
Personally I think the Chinese are buying them all up and refabing them into operational units or selling them for parts. I mean I can buy every part I need to make a G1 except the mother board and the daughter board off of ebay. (and pay about $129)
Thought about going and extending my contract so I could get a new G1 and then selling my old one one ebay. I figure I'd break even at least.

wow, G1's are being sold for more money than I bought it for. When I purchased my G1 at release w/ a tmobile contract, i paid 125 dollars for my g1, i nabbed it a day early from release . but still, are you telling me that g1's are going for that much out there?

That's what I'm sayin' ... WOWZA!!!
If that's the going rate, I may just buy some functional GeeWons and root them and unlock them and flash them with the latest CM and throw on a $0.99 screen protector and get DOUBLE-DOUBLE!!!

I feel I did a terrible thing when I bought my G1 judging by this thread. I paid almost 700 CAD and ended up signing onto a 2 year contract after the fact because I needed data as well....
There should be an icon for getting pounded in the bum.

Remember everyone,
These are the "current" prices.
3 months ago G1's were going for about $50 broken, and $120 used.
After the phone first released, they were like $450 for an unlocked phone and even more if it was one of the first rooted phones.
To many people are buying the G1 because it is the new Super toy. My friend with an Iphone, another friend with a Nokia 900 and I are constantly playing the, 'Oh yeh my phone does..." game.
The more people who buy them, the more the market floods and the faster prices can drop.
A large handful of these people you have met...we often see them with posts like "HELP! I just bricked my phone!"
Prices will go down when the Nexus One gets released because it will become the new HOT item.
Then we can all buy super cheap replacement parts for our G1's that are also running the Nexus software thanks to people like Cyanogen, Dwang, and all the other great Devs who have been working on these phones.
As far as paying to much...can't help you there. Research is always your best friend.

$125 that seems good

G1's in the US in perfect condition are about $200-$250 on ebay... I got mine a couple months ago for $190, and felt lucky at that price. Perfect condition, only 2 hours of talk time, guy got the phone to test for a magazine, used it for 2 weeks, then sold it. I did plenty of research and spend a month waiting for one in the right condition at the right price to come my way.
Anyone that thinks they only paid "$125" for it are ignoring the fact that was the 2yr contract price, the actual price of the phone new is more like $400.
If all it has is that one little scratch, it will go for up to $200 if unlocked and in an auction. If you do a buy it now posting, $150-$175 will sell quickly and is more than fair.

I push them to $400 AUD ,,, if someone wants their rooted phone they can pay the price
I will buy them for $300 unlocked if I have someone wanting a phone rooted
they are $460 New
If someone Brings me their phone I will root for Free ...

Thanks for your valuable input on this.
If I should post it on ebay (most likely there than Craigslist), do you recommend I mention the technical details?
ie: it is rooted, has installed Cyanogen ROM 4.2.9.1 + RA-dream-v1.5.2 recovery
I know for sure I will definately take some high resolution pics of it to clearly show its fine condition.

Yes, realize what you pay for.
When you say that you are paying someone on ebay or craigslist the same price what you can get one from Tmob for, you are not. You pay that price at Tmob because you are signing a contract. On ebay and craigslist you are just getting the phone. That's why you get these phones for so cheap from any cell carrier. Because you are signing a contract. If you buy the phone without the contract, you will pay $300 plus for the phone.
Some people buy online for different reasons. To root the phone or use on another network.
And lately, people are not going to want to pay that much for a phone they are going to experiment on anyway. You can get a good used mytouch for about $150. When I had my G1, I bought it a year ago from someone for $175. But, if yours is in decent condition, you should still get a good price for it though.

Radioshack Evo Updates

Much easier to throw this all in one spot than to try to compile all the various threads. New info as of 5/27/10!
-Preorders are no longer being taken at Radioshack due to inventory constraints. IE: demand was starting to exceed quantity
-The occasional store (non-mall stores) is opening at 6am; check your local area to find out which are opening early and at what times.
-Activation will most likely not be a simple in-out process. Expect to be in the store roughly 30 minutes.
-Don't forget the phone requires a Data plan and a $10 Premium Data service in order to be activated! Sprint's Hotspot add-on is discounted to $29.99 as well.
-Most stores should have the device in-store in advance of the release date, so our worries about stock are allieved. Even if a store is out of stock, we will most likely not be able to call another store and have a phone placed on hold due to demand, BUT it may be able to be Direct2U'd, which is a method of ordering.
-Accessories at launch will be limited to chargers (generic and iGo), screen protectors, and some locations will have Zagg's Screen Protector (not full body). Evo-specific accessories will be available throughout the month of June.
-Pre-order customers will be offered 15% off accessories from 6am to whenever the store would normally open (usually 9am), and everyone else will be offered 10% from 9am through normal business hours. This stacks with the $20 credit (though neither are available on the phone itself, even though the credit can be used on anything else in the store) and is only available through close-of-business June 4th.
-Radioshack Service Plans on the HTC Evo will be lowered from $124.99 to 99.99 through June 6th, and covers everything it always has, namely:
+Wear and Tear
+Light Corrosion
+Speaker Damage
+Screen Outages
+Dead Pixels
+Battery Replacement once per year (excellent value)
+In-Store Replacement of up to four same-ticket accessories
Just keep in mind this is a warranty, not insurance. As such, it does not cover lost, stolen, broken, or water damage claims.
Luckily, none of this is classified information, so I can share it freely with all of you Ask any question you feel necessary, and I'll keep this updated if anything changes~

I also wouldn't be surprised if Sprint has server issues as well (on launch day/morning), just to really slow things down. It will make it more,.... lets just say memorable.

I could see that... I don't think it'd be as bad as AT&T with the iPhone, though. It might be down for just the one day, if at all. Cross your fingers XD

is best buy still taking pre-orders?

Wow.. im glad i pre-order mines yesterday.. because i was going to wait to today.
EDIT: Sorry i was wrong.. the $50 dollas go towards your phone when it gets release

Its a $20 accessory credit they give you at time of purchase (evo pickup) and the gift card is used towards the EVO 4G Purchase price (because you paid $50 for it).

No sir, I believe they took your 50 dollars as a deposit on the phone and in return gave you a 50 dollar gift card. They also gave you a 20 dollar bonus towards any accessory of your choosing, but the gift card was actually the money you put towards the deposit.

The $50 gift card is for the preorder itself. Instead of keeping your money like GameSTOP, for example, we give you a gift card so that we still have a guarantee you'll come back. Same principle, different execution. The $50 you can use toward the phone, while the $20 can only be used on accessories.

Well, yeah. Same concept, like other people have explained while I was occupied here at work Only instead of keeping your money, we give it to you on a gift card. You have to spend it with Radioshack, regardless, so it works out the same

I think pre-ordering is coming to a close rapidly. I would say if you haven't pre-order as of yesterday or this morning @ RS your only shot is the Sprint store if you want it on the 4th.

If anyone else is accepting preorders, the latest it'll be is the 31st, just so they have numbers in order before they start shipping to stores. Though as I said, Radioshack CAN order the Evo if they happen to be out of stock in the store. Ask and find out~

RS Service plan sucks why not just get TEP from sprint? I know its 7 bucks a month plus $100 replacement but it covers it even if its stolen. You can't beet that.

probably can sell my pre order slot to someone that's waiting outside for one.

It covers two years (life of the contract), and all you pay is the price of the plan. No deductible or anything.

The insurance does have its place, that doesn't mean it's a bad idea. If you have a history of having phones go bad, it's a cheaper alternative. If you're worried about it being stolen or lost, or dropping it in water.... honestly you should probably get a different phone XD But really, insurance is good for those things, provided you don't mind paying $168 over the course of your plan, plus the $100 deductible.
The downside to the RS plan is that it's a send-off to repair (except for the accessory and battery replacement), so if you don't have a back-up phone, it might not be the best for you since we don't use loaners. So there you go, a direct comparison. Both are good, in different circumstances. I've seen the warranty do wonders for lots of customers, and I've seen it be worthless.

I just called the RS I pre-ordered at and was told:
1. They have stopped taking pre-orders since the close of business day yesterday (May 27th). He also said that most stores were limited to 20 pre-orders.
2. They are opening at 6:00AM sharp (this is a full store, not a kiosk) and stock may be limited to 2-4 phones more than pre-ordered!
3. He was not sure about the $10 or $15 discount for accessories (DUBious, who is a Houston, TX Radio Shack employee, has reported an additional 10% off accessories for people arriving between 6-9AM).
I noticed that the tone of the employee I talked to was much more serious today than my previous calls (yes, I bug them a lot! ). Maybe the scope of how big this is going to be is starting to dawn on some of them now that news is coming down from corporate?

[Q] How much for a mytouch 4g?

Ok so here is whats going on..
I live in Toronto and is using mobilicity(same frequency as T-mobile)
I currently have the mytouch 3g slide, i got it off the flee market.
I loved the phone so much and i have been reading about the mytouch 4g that i want to upgrade.
Now my question is where is the cheapest place to get a Brand New mytouch 4g unlocked?
I know T-mobile sometimes unlocks their phones for free but my question with them is that on their site i cant get the phone without a contract.
I am willing to drive to buffalo to an actual T-mobile store but what is their price on the phone with no contract?
Thanks in advance

Well that depends if you want new then I recommend buying from TMobile as you will have remorse and warranty without contract for 450+tax total 480 or so. Using website you can't order it as you have to call it in and order it via phone or go in to the local store. Now if you want to buy new or mint like conditions for cheaper price then try Craigslist or eBay which is selling for $350-400. You have higher chance of getting washed out display which you will have issues now if you don't care about it then just buy it. Far as unlocking goes you can do radio s=off yourself and sim unlock it.

I got mine for 350 on cl new in case right after I returned the Nexus S to Best Buy.
Best phone yet hands down.

Well 350 is the avg price but the thing is what will you do when you get bad display?

Thanks a lot guys for clearing that up a bit for me.
I think i might go with buying a brand new one,
I'm the kind of guy who likes to have things from the start and since i don't see myself getting another phone for a while i think it will be better off to get it new

Cl for $250 new from a tmobile rep, was unopened when I purchased it. May try a costco or sams, im looking into a two year contract and can get another mytouch 4g, or g2 for 99
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

I've had a couple of chances to buy them off CL in barely used condition for $250ish, but average price seems to be about $300.

Ive looked in Craiglist around my area and the cheapest I've found was 400, i dont want to order from ebay because my visa is currently over due
for 400 i think id rather just buy it from T-mobile.
But once again thanks for tips and your thoughts

Shop more carefully. Post a WANT AD instead and you'll get lower prices. Worked for me. But then again I live in the SF Bay Area where CL was born, so there's a lot of action.
Check this one out - this one is within driving distance of me.
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/mob/2148760594.html

The best thing I like about CL is the false advertisement to lure folks in each threads by the seller. How they claim its new then when you go inside you see its used lol it can't be new (NIB) but its used morons. Don't waste your time with CL with 1st batch still out in large go pay the full price if money is not object for you or get it via EIP though tmobile I am guessing they have like 30-35 smaller payments.
Now I wouldn't mind buying it of CL year later but not even at that price as most idiots do want 350 for device that should be 150 due to time but they want the price they bought it for lol you have to love people who has 0 to no experience in sale department.

If you do your due diligence as a buyer and inspect the product it's fine. Just like buying a used car.
I bought a mt3g on CL for $200 and sold it on CL 9 months later with accessories for $200. Then a couple weeks later I picked up my gf's Captivate for $200 and in a year I'll probably sell it for $250.
I'm a perfectly straightforward and honest buyer and seller. Post a want ad to buy then post a sale ad to sell. This isn't rocket science.

I live in Toronto, theres probably only a few people selling around here and they want 400+ especially since "It's not out in Canada".
When i check buffalo and that area there are only a few low priced phone which are used and when i tried contacting them they where already sold.

Gazelle.com....$59 Value (lol)

Anyone ever seen the commercials for this site? I've seen them a lot late night so o figured for fun, I'd check what a basically perfect Nexus One was worth...
http://www.gazelle.com/catalog/cell...ate[checked_ids][]=calculator_answers_248_531
What a rip! They offer you $59 for a Nexus One in great condition with all original accessories.
You can still get upwards of $180 on eBay..
Just felt like posting this, I thought that was outrageous.

Agreed. They probably sell it back through ebay making at least double the amount.

It is outrageous. Especially because if you look on ebay, they sell extensively there. They also are always the ones charging the greatest prices or highest minimums on ebay.

They're like GameStop for phones. They might as well be called PhoneStop.

Just playing Devil's Advocate here a bit as I do agree, $59 is outrageously low *BUT* when my contract came up with AT&T a few months back, I bought a white iPhone 4 32gb to sell on Ebay and had to relist 3 TIMES before I got a successful bid. One of which I actually sent the device out, Paypal revoked payment and I had to get UPS to intercept the phone that was already 'out for delivery'.. by the time it was all said and done, I sold the phone for $250 over what I payed for it, but after the 1st shipping fiasco, getting eaten alive by Ebay's fees, and just the general pain in the ass, I made like $50.. I will never use Ebay again. So, long story short, if I wanted an easy, painless transaction I just might take that $59 and be done with it.. but i would never sell my N1 anway

yeah ebay is my last resort if craigslist fails me I might try gazelle in the future, just maybe if other people havent sold on ebay before, here it goes someone bids an auction for X dollars the paypal that their cut for providing the transaction then ebay towards the end of the month then bills you a precentage of what you sold. Ebay is great for buyers but if your not moving bulk it kinda sucks to sell there I typically will overcharge on shipping so that I dont lose much and shouldnt I be paid to drive this thing to the UPS store anywhos

I'd be careful too...
How can they offer a discount with an ATT plan????
Seems suspicious to me...but good luck if you go with it!

Im only guessing here but I bet a phone vendor could sign you up for ATT with any phone, like an iPhone. Then turn around and sell that iPhone at retail to another person. But give you the 2 year discount on the Note.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Vendor signs you up for a new 2 year contract with at&t. They choose iphone 4s as your new phone. They keep the 4s and sell it for like $600 bucks. They are then able to offer you the note for $599
I would cut the middle man out and just do it yourself if you don't already have an at&t contract or are not in upgrade status.

Did you order for $599, or did you do the contract? If legit, the contract is very tempting.

The contract is only $200 cheaper. If you instead extend your contract with buying an iphone 4s, you'll come out far ahead. You'll pay $200 (instead of $400) and you can sell it on ebay for $600 at least then use that money for the Note. So in effect the iphone route is at least $200 cheaper for the same end result. That is assuming this is legit, and ignoring ebay fees (use craigslist.)

I also just called them up. I work in NYC and they seem to offer local pickup, so what better way to see if they actually have it in stock then to walk over there...The person that answered said it was out of stock and due back in, in about 2 weeks.
When I pressed for a more specific date, he just said he wasn't sure, but about 2 weeks.
...All kinds of red flags here.

Thanks. I was partially looking at it as a convenience issue (not having to deal with reselling, no fees, no uncertainty of what it ultimately sells for), but you're right, $200, or even $100, is a big chunk for convenience. But ultimately, it's not very convenient if "electropirise" screws you over.

Thanks for doing that, good to get some insight before blindly trusting them.

only $95 more on expansys-usa if you use promo code BFNOTE. then you dont have a contract to deal with either. it also ships from the us

So its $494 on there without a contract?
is $399.00 with a contract. so add 95 to that?
What you posted makes no sense, but i know what you were trying to say.
You want people to pay 95 more full price compared to the full price on that other site in the OP
Wait, that also makes no sense

nevermind...thought it was $599 with the contract. now I see its $399 with the contract. that does sound like a good deal then if the site is legit.

This is a pretty good deal -- except no way to get warranty. Expansys USA has a great reputation on resellerratings.com.
Will probably get mine thru ebay so I can get a SquareTrade warranty.

Wow total came out to be $694.99 not too shabby! Thanks for the code!!!

Watching this thread since I wouldn't advice anyone to order anything from that website and I'm really curious to see if they will deliver.
There's another thread discussing the website that OP bought the phone. Always use the search button.

Just wanted to make everyone aware that Amazon is selling Notes for $660 shipped. That is the cheapest I've seen ANYWHERE on the web. I picked one up today through amazon, fulfilled by the oem shop.
Hopefully I'll get a new unit that hasn't been opened.

Yesasia.com has it about $650. I only bought small things from the site,yet I feel it does business alright.

I got one today and already received tracking with it delivered Thursday ... it was transformersandgsmphones on Amazon. Paid $669 with 2 day shipping. Not bad!
Sent from my Beastly SGS2!

OP, did you get it?
Anyone know if the OP got his Note next day, or at all?
Dang, Expansys-USA is up to a whopping $779.99 for theirs.
