I have always heard some good experiences with ebay although I cannot speak on the amount of money you would get based on how you configure your sale. I personally always go for craig's list because it allows you to work out an arrangement that you both can agree on instead of settling. Works best if you use the built in auto forward email feature so that you do not have to disclose your email address to potential buyers and leave the possibility of being bothered later when the Nexus is long gone. Good luck!

Craigslist for me too, so I can deal locally and in cash. If you have a problem on eBay there's nothing eBay will do to help and you will be out either your money or the device...
I sold my HTC flyer within 2 days on craigslist. While there are still crooks on cl, by dealing locally and in cash, I've never had any problem. I also use the email forwarder and provide no personal details until I can smell that all is on the up and up...

I think eBay will get you more money as far as "hey, I sold it for $175" but then when you pay the fees and the shipping you end up with $125 in your pocket. Craigslist will give you cash instantly (no gaming playing with PayPal), and you will probably get more in the end if you sell it for less money.

I sold my 8GB nexus 7 on ebay for $175 and walked away with a check for around $168. I've never used craigslist so I can't speak for it.

Umm im not sure what u you mean by eBay won't do anything but I have had nothing but great experience selling on eBay. Ebay will totally stand behind you and make sure everything goes as planned. Of course u always run the risk of sum1 not paying but that's about it...

Yeah but its not like you'll be out of anything besides time. You don't send the product until they pay. Some jerks will bid on a item with no intentions to pay but its not like you take a loss financially. Ebay will refund all fees associated with listing the item if the buyer doesn't pay. But it does suck if you have to go thru the hassle of relisting it again lol.

I second this.

my vote goes towards Amazon. this is where i sold my Asus TF101.
and 2nd to Swappa.

I go craigslist. But if you use craigslist post a number if you actually want to sell. Myself and everybody I know skip over adds that don't post a number, when I actually want to buy something I want to talk to you now not wait for you to ignore my email because your to lazy to take 30 seconds and delete your add (which really is that easy from an android phone) after a sell like a previous reply implied.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I would try another tech forum like Hard OCP or Anandtech or similar. Both have established markets with few incidents. Make sure the user can verify themselves, uses Heatware, etc. If that failed, I'd try Craigslist, meet publicly, cash-only, etc. The hits from either Paypal or Ebay alone is OK but NOT both. I only sell things on ebay if I know I can't sell it elsewhere (needs bigger market, niche item).

What the best insurance for nexus 7?

And screen protector!

With the price being as low as it is, there's not really a 3rd party insurance that is worth the trouble. If you can get one from say bestbuy, where you get the bestbuy protection plan, its one story. They'll let you get a replacement right off the shelf with no waiting. These 3rd party insurance plans are more expensive to begin with, and they make you mail your hardware half way around the world turning it into a 2 week ordeal to get an issue fixed. The headache of dealing with the insurance company only over the phone and through emails and the longer wait just isn't worth it for something that you can buy for under $200.

The only one I found from Best Buy online was a16gb. It was on "sale" for $279 (I believe) . To make it even better, it was through a 3rd party business. SKETCH!
Walmart has a 2 year replacement plan for $28. Can't beat that.

I just got my nexus yesterday from Walmart, and like the poster above me said, 28 is the best deal you're gonna get. Don't believe that Sold out crap. If you can buy and pick up at the store, they have it. If you're calling the store, they're just gonna tell you it's sold out without checking. Happened to me all day yesterday.

Go through Wally World online. Yeah it might not make it in time but worth the wait. I got my 32 for $249 which wasn't horrible but I was sold on the replacement plan that covers just about anything. And besides, Walmart takes just about anything back.

Squaretrade+case
50 dollars for 3 years of accidental insurance+12 case. Pretty good imo

Squaretrade accidental 2 year policy. It does not cover lost devices but will cover damage with no deductible and a 5 day turnaround. They also hand out coupons like candy so the plan i got was roughly 35 dollars. Which is cheaper than some premium cases. Best option imho

Just itemize it under your homeowners or renters insurance. $200 coverage prob runs about $15 / year depending on who you are with.

I prefer to buy my electronic devices through Best Buy because of their insurance coverage (went through 3 DINC2's and didn't pay a penny to replacr) but they weren't selling them in my area. I ended up buying mine at Office Depot. Insurance was about $70 which I think may be a little too much, but it covers EVERYTHING.

Any Difference in the Tmobile nexus 4?

To anyone that has a nexus 4 from T-mobile. Is there any difference in there phones? OS, add in's, junk? Quote
"The T-Mobile version costs less -- $199 for the 16-GB version -- but it requires a two-year contract with T-Mobile. It also has some applications and services from T-Mobile that aren't part of the stock Jelly Bean experience offered by the Google version. Other features, such as the 4.8-inch HD display, 8-megapixel camera and NFC, are all the same".

On contract costs more. You're paying more for it within your monthly fees.
As mentioned in the other threads here asking the same question; they are the exact same phone.

How is it more? I have a family with 5 lines, one of them had an upgrade, I took it.. Cost me total of 257.63 out the door. NOW the Value plan, you have to put down 200 with the $15 monthly charges for 20months. So it depends on what he has and not all contract will cost more.

Well let's just say after being with Tmobile for more than 10 years and being time for an upgrade. My nexus 4 was dirt cheap!!
I can't ever put how much I paid for it may start a riot! People hunting me down. Dogs chancing me! Oh the pain.

Still, you shouldn't feel disappointed, OP, as the price of the Nexus 7 has gone down around 50$ since we early adapters got our hands on one.

Correct me, but i think you get a free movie, a few books and 2 songs for free.. Idk if its still present, but i got them when i bought my 32GB 3g.. ^^

You guys are mixing up the free gift with google wallet and the free gift from nexus 7 purchases.
The gift with google wallet was indeed ten bucks.
The gift with nexus 7 was 25 bucks.

The 10$ credit wasn't linked to the 7, it was for activating Google wallet. So no, there wasn't a 10$ credit with purchase of nexus 7, there was a 25$ credit at one point.

Which, coincidentally, was explained earlier in the thread. There was never any $10 credit linked to the N7. Rather, it was only for activating the now obsolete Google Wallet prepaid card. The credit for early adopters of the N7 was a $25 Play Store credit, which ended 30 Sep 2012.

trading my htc one for nexus 4?

so i originally had the iphone 5 but i traded that for an htc one and i must admit am a phone junkie always wanting to switch things up and now i got an offer for my htc one plus 40 dollars. only thing im sad about is downgrading from 32 gigs to 16 but for some reason i really want to try the nexus 4. would you guys reccomend this? yes or no. i dont think you can go wrong with either phone honestly

You're getting ripped off in my books. HTC one is twice the phone mate.

well the thing is nobody on craigslist is selling one. should i ask for more money? if i honestly deserve more money than $40 plus the trade im sure hed understand and if not i can just keep my htc one. i just kind of like the hardware setup of the htc one as far no hardware keys etc

Is the HTC unlocked? Sell it on eBay and buy the nexus. But honestly, it's not worth it the nexus is somewhat of a downgrade. My bro has a one and the screen and speakers alone are a lot better. Plus, 16gb does suck I have 10 GB of music and I don't like to stream because T-Mobile doesn't have the best signal when I'm driving around town. And if you don't like sense put cm on the phone. The developer edition comes out soon so vanilla Roms should be bug free and updates will be on par with Nexus 4

Sell the one on eBay or clist or swappa. Then buy the nexus off of eBay or the playstore. I think a new nexus is about 350 or so. A HTC one used is about 450 to 500 I'm guessing. The point is that a bad deal on your side. The nexus has been out for about a year and the one for about a month. The nexus can be boght brand new at a cheaper rate then the one.

Oh see I don't know how much you can really sell for since its locked to a certain carrier. My brother got a really good deal when upgrading contract it essentially cost him $50 (paid $150 with a $100 mail in rebate) if I were you I would just keep the HTC. Is there something it lacks for you

Its not in stone. I've backed out of deals just say you did some research and the price difference is not worth the trade. You aren't obligated even if you make a verbal agreement to meet.

honestly i just wanted to try something different and the nexus looks pretty bad ass to me i just like the over all design. i am not all up to date on specs and features so im not going in very educated to this trade thats why i came here i like the htc and all but i really have always sort of had a thing for nexus phones. so just keep the htc is the vibe im getting? what phone WOULD be worth trading the htc one for? im always looking for something new...smh

Nexus 4 has a bad photo camera.
No full LTE support.
No extSD.
but has much better software cos it's vainilla/aosp Android with Google binaries that are supported on AOSP without issues.

The Nexus 4 hardware would be a downgrade. How about you flash your H1 to aosp instead? Then you would have the same software as the nexus.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Currently no phone is better in my opinion. This and the gs4 are essentially equal in hardware it depends on preference of amoled over LCD. However, I do think the features touchwiz offers like the hover gestures and stuff are better than things sense has
