Samsung have updated their trade-in details to cover people who have recently bought the Galaxy Note 2!
I'm trading in my old S2 for a shiny Galaxy Tab! Saves me selling the S2 on ebay.
Details here:
http://www.expansys.com/samsung-trade-in.aspx
Other phones can be traded in too.
Pity the N7000 isn't listed as one of the trade-in models
Yeah I noticed this the morning I got mine. Although now because they except more types of phone each phone is valued. For my S2 they would give £170, £180 or £190 discount towards a Tab depending on which one. 7" would then cost £30 after the £170 reduction, I have seen the Tab 2 7" selling new on ebay for £160 and can sell the S2 for over £180 easily (£185 trade in at asda when I was checking).
It might be worth checking with your personal requirements but could be better to do it yourself.

Whilst we await the official price of the Galaxy Note from Samsung there has been several pre-order prices from on line retailers suggesting it will cost around £600 which seems expensive. The pre-order price of the Galaxy S2 was around £550 which makes the Galaxy Note price seem more reasonable when the extra performance and features are taken into account. Samsung are hoping that the Galaxy Note will be able to replace the small smart phone and large tablet for most people thus making it a game changer. Only time will tell.
Well, it obviously doesn't say anything for certain, but here in NZ it's up for preorder at NZ$1169, an unconscionable ~$40 premium over the S2's launch price. (And don't bother converting that price to USD, we pay a lot more for tech over here.)
It was adjusted up to that value about a week ago, too.
I really don't think Samsung would price it *that* exorbitantly, outlandishly large phones don't sell well as it is (cough*streak*cough) so pricing it out of the reach of the people who do want them isn't a terribly sound strategy.

I will close this post
Im assuming good old competition should bring it down to $650 american?
obviously without any carrier there is still allot of interest, ebay / amazon / newEgg, so what metrics can we use to project X savings X weeks out?
well people are posting that they bought the note for $710 on handtec.
The price might be dropping faster than even the samsung galaxy s2 did.
If you can wait 2 - 3 months, it might be less than $600 even lol. But by then, we might see some quad core phones
The dual digitizer is primarily what makes the Note more expensive then comparable devices. It's not cheap hardware to add.

i doubt your going to see an unlocked Note at $600 for quite a while. The international Galaxy S2 has been out for months and it's selling for $540-$550 from sellers on Amazon. And hardware wise the note is a lot more expensive than the S2.

from What I have seen on eBay...the price of the Note has dropped from $900~$1000 (on 9th Nov) to now the cheapest of $689. So that's almost $300 in 3 weeks!!!!! The price are dropping down like crazy since the release of Notes in HK.
oh...and, those prices are in AUS Dollars and on AUS eBay.......
US buyers if you have been looking for cheap galaxy note then you can get one for $649.
I have been shopping for galaxy note for a while and finally got one from http://www.integrontech.com shipped free. They accept Google payment
Hello
There is a listing for unlocked/rooted galaxy note 3 phone on swappa.com, and I am very much enticed. I wanted to know if it is OK to buy from swappa.com, and if anyone here has experience with that. Also if the listing mentioned is good enough.
thanks
Swappa is great and the seller has sold nine phones there, so I think you're safe there. I have sold one there myself and it was a very smooth transaction.
The price might be a little high though. I paid $500 for a brand new in a sealed box Sprint Note 3 on Craigslist a few months ago.
How's $225 For A Brand New (Sealed In Box) Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1" Tablet?
I mean, everywhere else is much more, plus there is tax...
Here's where I found it.
Good deal? Worth getting?
Interesting that both your username and the ebay seller begin with Dan...just saying.
That being said, the price will go up another $100 over the next day or so I would suspect.

My name is Daniel, not Ogelthorpe. My name is fairly common.
Anyway, hopefully it won't go up, and I can get a decent deal on it. Is it worth getting? Is there another tablet I should look at?
costco has the tab 10.1 (SM-T580) $199 before taxes...
