How much can I probobly sell my g1 for?

Well, it's been fun, but enough is enough. I'm sick of using these low specs and want to get a new android.
My g1 is:
-unlocked
-Rooted (I can unroot if you think that'll get me a better price)
-A little rough around the edges, but I plan to refurb it before selling.
-Screen is PERFECT no scratches at all
-Original box and booklets
-Htc headset adapter included (but not the headphones)
-Usb cable + charger
-2 screen protectors (plus the one currently in use)
-Black case
-Extended battery (although the extended battery cover is cracked and the case doesn't fit over the phone when you're using it
I think that just about wraps it out.
Anybody know how much I can get from it?
Should I even bother refurbishing it?

I just bought one for $50 of craigslist
Doesn't have the box, but has everything else, two batteries, screen protector and 2 hard cases
Flashing it now....

Ive seen them selling much higher on ebay.
I'm hoping the bid can atleast get up to 200.
But an ebay search for a new and unlocked one shows them at around 300 - 400. but I probably wont get near that

Just going by the ebay listing now, i'd say a reasonable offer would be between 75 and 150, not 200.

You can get a NEW android phone with specs that average out to equivalent for about $150 CDN.

i got mine new from ebay for around 120 and it came with alot of extras. and you could probably sell yours used for around the same price

new w/o a three year butt-rapage from a cell company??? didn't think so.
but yeah, if someone were looking to get on a new contract, there are better phones out there. not much, but better.

Well, I put it in ebay and put the starting bid at 200
No bids yet, but 16 watcher.
That's always a good sign, although I don't think anybodies going to bid till last second
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App

Yeah id say you should set it at 150 to start. but you can do what ya like. I have a question though? pretty noobish, what exactly is refurbishing it? i mean what do you actually do to the phone for it to be considered refurbished?

I was going to buy the replacement shell from ebay so that it would be good as new.
I really wasn't expecting to get any attention from the $200 pricetag, but if people are watching it that means they're thinking "its ok assuming I don't find a better price"

Trying to sell a I/O tab question

Just curious what some of you think a good price for a used I/O tab might be.
It has two very small marks on the screen but is otherwise in Grade A condition.
I've had trouble selling it on eBay for what I think its worth and am afraid to let it go for too little.
Any opinions?
Anybody want to buy one?

What was your starting price? I would do Buy it Now for $400. Should sell quick. Or google ebay fee calculator and see what the buy it now price has to be to get $400 after ebay/paypal fees.

For a used, non-supported device? I was just in Costco and with rebate you can get a new 16GB for $429. MicroCenter was selling them a week ago for $350. The I/O has no collectable value so I'd guess $275-300 would be a reasonable expectation. Keep in mind that new Aconia's, K1's, and Thrive's are all selling for $299 this holiday season at various retailers.

I guess I was shooting a little high, guess I'll have to lower my expectations.

Plus woot had refurbs for 319 a few days ago for the standard 10.1 tab.

I have an I/O tab and would def take it over an standard tab anyday. Also its 32gb, 16gb tabs are just too small. I personally consider it a collectable, im sure there are others that do as well. If you have the box, etc you should do well, iMO

For something to be collectable there has to be scarcity. I've seen a bunch of I/O's on eBay and CL. You guys can list it for $600 or anything you want. The market determines value.

You can't sell it? Id rather have an I/O then the retail wifi one just cause that one looks cooler(to me) but I have the white back wifi so that might be why. So pissed best buy was out of grey when I got it.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App

I paid $600 which I thought wasn't bad since retail wifi 32GB was $599
I haven't gotten a bid over $460 yet.
Guess I'll just have to bite that bullet.

You have a 32 gig? Id trade ya for my 16 wifi. What's the difference with the io and retail I run task 7 so support doesn't matter.

Anything above $250 is too much IMO. Rather get a retail unit otherwise

FWIW, I've bought many refurbished items off Woot.com. Think of it this way- it's been QAed twice!

Snagged one. Gonna look nice next to my note 2.

"Refurbished" is derived from the Greek for "...someone else's broken stuff".
Used tablets are like used underwear. It may wash up nice but I can never forget it's had someone else's ass in it.

Deal or just looks like deal you read below and decide

I do not see it always bad to buy used or refurbished. But you really should think.
New for 32 gb 499.99 average price retail with 1 year warranty
Refurbished 32 gb average say 410.00 no warranty add 50.00 for hard to get them to pay warranty $460.00 if no shipping can
Save you 40.00 or gamble it will not break
So my honest well thought out opinion is spend the extra 40.00 plus buy good premium drop protection warranty.
Can save you money in the future.
Good luck

I will buy used if I am getting a BIG discount but for a lousy $50 I'll pony up and cut the OEM safety tape myself.

Cracked digitizer, what would you do?

My uncle, just dropped his Nexus 4, check the photos.
Now what is the best fix? the phone is only 2 month old, has 10 more month of warranty, but it does not cover those parts.
He bought if for 830$, new here cost 555$ for 16GB version, I can:
1. Buy full new back cover + lcd,and just replace myself, but nobody can be sure they are genuine LG parts.
2. Contact local lab, that gives the warranty, and fix it there (and it won't be cheap, thrust me, I know), but he will get genuine LG parts.
3. F*@K that, and just sell it on eBay, and add the money to a new Nexus 4?
Thanks

$830?!?!? Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.... Ouch.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

ever think about buy a new one in a on-line shop??
830 bucks a lot!!! I think for all that money you can have a holiday in a country with playstore and buy yourself one..

As previously said ... Ouch and try and look at how much it would be to get one from an online retailer that can deliver to your country.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

You know, when you stupid enough, and want the best and newest device, like, right now? now the price is "only" 555$ (we have 34.6% taxes on every device with cellular modem), so anyway, the best thing to do, is to sell, and buy a new? I sell stuff from time to time on eBay, just remembered a BB9700 with cracked screen for 120$ lol

Get a new N4. And tell your uncle to use a case, you have to be insane to use a phone that's all glass (not even all Gorilla Glass!) without a case. Try the Ringke Fusion - it's a quite nice looking case with a transparent back.

How much it worth in that condition?

I'm not sure on this. Probably not worth much - $200 tops if cracked, very few people buy cracked or broken phones. You could also get it repaired and buy a case, which might save you some money over buying a new phone and a case. It all depends on how much you are willing to spend.

Thing is, to make it look new, I need a back cover, display, and frame, so it just not worth it..

830 dollars? I'd jump on that deal in a heartbeat...-_-

It costs 360 USD including shipping here in my country and I thought that was expensive.
Now? Maybe not.
Also, are you talking in terms of USD? 850 a phone can get you something like, 3 Nexus's..
I'd suggest you sell and get a new one. There's just this thing about unboxing new phones that's so exciting

OK, I'll explain why that price, it was 2 month a go, so: firstly if you not buy from PLAY store, you can expect any price, in Israel it's :
17% tax on all stuff, and 34.6% on cellular equipment, and 2 month a go it just started to sell here, so again, new device, and you just want it no matter what, so there are always people that don't care about how much money they will spent, also israel is Europe, so its like 575$, not the 350$ US PLAY store.

Israel is NOT Europe! There are no such taxes in Europe! 34%!!!???? WTF???
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

front screen + digitizer is around $150 and the back screen around $100. So for about $250 you could repair it yourself. This would also be about the same price you would pay if you sent it back to LG for repairs.

Is that $830 US dollars? that is painful

How much is just to fix the front screen and digitalizer? I would fix those, cover back crack with a skin or case.

75$ to fix the display actually, plus maybe need a piece of M3 tape to glue the new display.
PS, the 34.6% is taxes for everything that has cellular modem inside, be it phone, smartphone, tablet, notebook, or even MIFI thing..
then there other 17% tax for anything you pay for here. I let's say, you buy a tablet, and it cross the сustoms of Israel, there 2 options,
if you lucky and it not considered to have 3G/4G/LTE, then it just like any tablet or notebook, and you pay 17% tax, if not..then there another 34.6%,
so many here, buy stuff in Eilat, or ask friends who go on vacation, as there no taxes on products, some say it maybe stop once..but I hope not soon..
What I mean by europe is, the some places say it's Europe, as the price is same as in other European countries, so we used to compare to Europe.

How much would you pay for developer edition

Verizon 64gb with two batteries. New screen and fresh developers flash, new speaker. Basically new phone tempered glass installed with extra glass. Spiegen hybird case blue as well as 64gb SD card. Oh and see view folding cover.
Just trying to get an idea if I decide to sell.

Oops typo it's got 32gb internal 64 gb external. Oh and please let's not turn this into what phone ate you getting note 5 bashing thread.

I don't think a case or a screen protector really adds any value to a sale unless they are new in box. You're really only selling the phone and the extra memory is a little bonus. Who wants to use a used case or a used screen protector that has somebody else's greasy fingerprints embedded in it? Let's be honest, memory cards are cheap anyhow. That being said, it's a rarer phone that is hard to come by and you are including two batteries. If anybody is paying more than 700, They are getting ripped off. I wouldn't pay more than 600 if I were in the market for it.
Of course, if you're listing on Swappa, you have to up the price to cover the buyers fee, the shipping and the 2.9% Paypal fee. So add that to the dollar amount too. (For examples, my regular Note 4 is listed on CL for 55 bucks cheaper than it is on Swappa.)

Ok $600 for just the phone and batteries. I do have to disagree with no value for memory card. If the person doesn't have one they CERTAINLY would need to buy one. Just my thought.

True, but it's not like they are that expensive. I paid ten bucks for a 32GB Sony Class 10 Micro SDHC. I added mine in and did word it like it's a great bonus hoping that whomever buys it will agree and not just look up the price on Amazon. LOL

I wouldn't give more than 450 for a DE. I pick up perfect condition note 4's the last 2 month's for 300 and 325. As weak as verizon development is I couldn't picture 6 and 700 for a used, abused and repaired Note 4 DE... just saying even if it looks new, but have replaced speaker, and being a De, it's been worked and not been babied And I agree with the other guy, cases, screen protectors don't mean much to most. Also if you research you can pick up class 10 64gb cards for 30 to 35 bucks. Hell, I picked up a SanDisk 128gb for 80.00 a month ago.
Just my 2 cents!

Ok we got $600 or $450 without the goodies. Average $525 so far.

I'd do 450 because I'd rather have the note 4 than anything else new or old today. But it depends on the buyer, and how much they're willing to spend on a year old phone with no official support from Samsung or indie devs

I have a DE, but if mine broke, I'd honestly pay up to $800 for another one mint

I've seen several Developer Edition Note 4s, mint condition, going for $750.00, if you can find one...$700.00 for good condition and both for phone only, no case, so SD and no extra battery.

If I was in the market for DE I would go as far as $600 for a mint one. Even that is a bit of a stretch for a year old phone with little support. I'm happy with the phone I currently have and have no desire to downgrade but I thought I'd throw my 2 cents in.

Unless the retail gets root the VZW will not see much dev support. The dev edition would lose it's value if the retail got root. I say it's time to sell your dev edition while it's inflated value survives. With the Nexus and LG phablets coming soon the N4 will soon be a outdated and forgotten phablet. Timing is everything.

Interesting perspective, but the value is there because it's a supported device for android 6.0 with everything you could possibly love in a phone. As long as the resale value will be above $400 for at least another year, a DE holder should still ultimately profit or at least break even by not purchasing a $600+ phone this year and seeing what the next wave brings.

You need to check out the last page of this thread.

Look at all these people trying to lowball a guy offering to sell a Note 4 DE.
Meawhile this guy threw his up on Swappa for $1100.

If OP sold his N4DE for $500 or $600 he literally had it stolen from him.
