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.

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

Plan to buy the transformer

Hello everybody,
Recently i have been looking at a load of tablets as I am interested in buying one soon. Now I al interested in the iPad 2, the Sony tablet s and the Asus transformer + WiFi.
I want to have a tablet to watch movies, play games, read books and make notes. And I just like the look and specs of this tablet as far as I could have seen and read.
I would like to know from you guys if there are things you dislike about the device or totally love. I have used the Sony tablet s and the ipad 2 but can't get my hands on this device. So Any feedback from you guys is welcome.
Regards

I love it. But only thing that i dislike is the Frame around the glass. It makes some sound if you "bend" it and stuff.. But nothing else to complain and the Prize $ is just great..
Also one problem is light bleed that i only have in 1 corner and its small and i really cant see it but in dark and when im watching movie but i doesnt bother me anymore at all : P
And eaven tf101 only has 2 cores its amazing fast afted ICS : P
-This is just My opinion.....

I bought myself a Transformer Prime for Christmas. Returned it after the GPS and wifi problems, bought a Lenovo K1 at a deal. It was slow and buggy and Lenovo's arrogance was overwhelming, with support totally lacking, so I returned it. I bought a barely used mint Transformer TF101 32GB with keyboard, locally for $325. It has no light bleed or any other problems and I love it!
The Prime was my biggest disappointment. But the original Transformer has restored my faith in Asus!

Wow.. my story is pretty much exactly the same as thomslik's.. except I payed $350.. grrr..
Anyway, I'm loving my TF101 and, for me, the ICS update has been problem free.
I would NOT recommend getting the iPad 2, it's much more limited than Android tablets.. especially with the keyboard dock on the Transformer.

The transformer is great not a problem out of it. I was gonna get the ipad 3rd generation but I don't want a big ipod that's all it is.

I like it. Good screen and fast. I wouldn't pay more then 300 for it at this point tho.

Best device i have ever brought myself so far i have a tiny bit of light bleed but everything else is perfect.
Its fast and does all the things you want to use it for also very very customisable i use a custom launcher themes apps system and kernel all to my preference

It still sells just about everywhere for 399 brand new. Why do you feel the price isn't justified now? Any reason besides having been out for a while? I think for what it offers compared to other tabs it has held its value quite well.

Because it will become outdated pretty soon. It's almost at the end of the one year cycle.
If anyone, living in the USA, buys a TF101 for $399 at this point, they have some terrible shopping skills. Refurbs are at $300 or lower. Even brand new 16GB ones are around $350.
I got mine "Used - Like new" from Amazon for like $240 a couple months ago.

I bought mine on the 17th from Fry's as they price matched an online site that was selling it for $349 w/ free shipping. I will say this site (bhphotovideo.com) was the only site I could find that was that cheap and not a refurb. Every other one I found short of eBay, who I refuse to use, was right around $399.
And not to split hairs but to that point, $350>$300 which is what I was originally quoting. My point is old or not, if the product still currently sits well compared to what's out now, I think it's worth it.
I'm just trying to determine whether to hold onto mine at this point but that's for another discussion...

So you paid $350 + tax, which is around $380.
Not worth it in my opinion. You probably don't realize it now because you just got it and it feels new to you.

Yeah. My only other option it seemed right now was either a Galaxy Tab or iPad 2 and the latter option is really not a consideration, but it was within the price range.
I'm digging the unit but as you said, it's all new to me. I'd love to see something solid on the near horizon as it might convince me to return this and wait but so far it's all just rumors and speculation.

Acer's quad core tablet is on presale for $449.99
In 2-3 months you will see 7 inch quad cores for $250.
Android 5.0 coming out in Fall.
So it depends on how badly you want a tablet right now.

Thanks everybody, I just ordered the 101 version without 3g, it is 400 euro in holland. But for the same price you get the ipad 2 or the Sony tablet. So I think its worth the price.

the iPad 2 is really nice but with the transformer you can install roms like nintendo 64, ps2, etc and play for hours on end. the whole stretch thing is pretty retarded with the iPad 2 and after a while really annoying.
I love both but if I could only have one it'd definitely be the transformer.

Tiger Direct usually has quality refurbished products.
And, they come with a warranty.
Just cause it's a refurb, doesn't mean it's crap.

I never said that refubs are crap. I have no problem with refurbs and buy them a lot.
The only reason I said anything was because the OP said they were brand new.

I on site staying $229, hmm

Site doesn`t work for me - gives me an error. Works on your browser ?

Im pretty sure that the 199 price was a short term deal that has expired and it went back to its original price.
I do remember that when I first say this it was for 199.

Speaking of buying a Nexus 7, last year I remember I was searching in a web site for stores that sold, for example, the Nexus 7.
It works like this: I selected the city and enter the product I was looking for, and the result was a list of stores showing the product, the address of the store and the available stock.
The problem is, I can't remember witch web site is this! I spent over 3 hours yesterday trying to remember...
I'm going to USA this year and want to buy some things.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

[Q] Buy 32gb Nexus 7 Now, or wait for next one?

Hey guys have a question. Ive been wanting another 7" tablet for awhile now and the Nexus 7 has always been at the top of the list. And just as I was about to finally get it all these rumors and announcements of the next nexus 7 come out. As you all know Staples has the 32gb on sale right now for 199, and theres a coupon code to get another $30 off. I have one on hold and reserved for me at my local Staples. So I am trying to decide if I should wait or buy now. If its true that the new one will be 299 as some rumors speculate, then the price difference between the 2 is about $140. As far as what I need in a tablet it would be pretty basic. Games, emails, web, etc. I dont need a camera, or LTE. So theres not much of a difference between them for what I need it for. One of my main concerns though is all these people talking about the performance drops, boot issues that some are having. But I also read that it might be just the 16gb version that are having issues. So anyway I figured here is a good place to ask to get some good info and advice. TIA.

Actually my 16 gb n7 performs quite good. But wait for next one.

Well it depends on you, the new nexus will have a snapdragon s4 quad core and 1080p also, and the 16gb I believe will start at $250 but correct me if I'm wrong. I have a 32gb WiFi and it runs like a champ. That sounds like a good deal for $170 as I got my 32gb for $250 so good luck on your choice.......rumor is Taiwan will get the new nexus 7 at end of month so you could check the web to see if you like or not!

I had a 16gb and its was laggy, but I decided to get the 32gb version when I broke the 16gb and got my square trade payout. The 32gb has been great, its stable, fast, and don't even have any light bleed.

coupon code?
I would love to get one I saw them on sale for 199 but what coupon code are you using? I couldn't find one

Here you go, coupon back up good until 7-21.

Let's look at the facts. The new gen it's probably coming next week, but, if the rumours are true, it should be a little mre expensive, starting at 229$ aprox. If i were you, i would wait and see, and if the new Nexus it's worth the price, i would grab that one.

I envy you. Here in Chile, i will have to wait like 2 months for the new Nexus just to arrive and be in the stores.
Anyways, i see you will wait for it. Good choice.

Sorry to hear that, at least you will know if its worth all the hype before you get it.

[Q] Availability?

First of all: I'm sincierly sorry to ask this question, but my recent finding destroyed my illusions of getting this phone.
Background story:
I found a person on ebay who is selling new, unopened, original Nexus 4 for real good price. I was like YES, I'm going to get it! Then I did some research and I found out that since the package starts from Hong Kong, it is checked by customs and that means no good. In Hungary the price is: The price of the phone + price of shipping + customs (3-12% of the earlier two combined) + 27% tax on the end result of the earlier 3 combined. It is CRAZY.
To work around this, I need the package to start from within the EU, because it means no customs and no 27% tax.
The question part
Can anyone tell me the cheapest and reliable place to get a new Nexus 4 from within the EU? And also it has to ship to Hungary, as my travelling options are very limited.
My maximum acceptable price is 280 dollars or the same value in any other money type. At the end of it's support it was cheaper than that at the play store so it has to be enough.
And once again: I seriously feel bad for having to ask this.

No idea but I think the used market is your best choice.
I bought a 16GB used Nexus 4 in mint condition still under warranty for 200€ 3 days in my country.
Surely you can find similar priced Nexus 4 on Ebay/Amazon?

It's probably just me, but I don't trust refurbished or used phones. Maybe I will have to change that in the future...

I feel you but as long as it has warranty and is in mint condition I don't see why not.
Besides I was on a tight budget aswell (200€) and had nothing as good as the N4 close to this price.
I also don't see how you will find a new Nexus 4 for sale because they aren't produced anymore and any N4 you might find will have atleast 1 year inside a box without any use, probably left on a wharehouse.
good luck though!

I don't like the fact that they are sitting in a warehouse, but I still trust it more than a used one.
Currently the best one I found is 312 dollars with the taxes. It's crazy.
