Given that most retailers do not carry the basic Nook Simple Touch anymore, does anyone have any suggestions on where to find a NST without getting ripped off? I'm trying to purchase one NST, new or used doesn't matter, as long as it is functional.
I got mine from ebay. Quite a few available there.
Well there are many in online shops avaible. For my country (and brand new nook) prices start from 80$.
Yes, I realize now that I should have checked around more. BestBuy.com has new NSTs for $50!

You don't say where you are from but i have read from other posts that the AT&T Stores have a good selection thats if you live in the USA ,Me Personally get everything i need for the KAISER of EBAY Cheap and Quality is good if you look right!!!!!!!!
Careful with ebay - I've bought 2 (!) charging/docking cradles, and neither one actually holds my TyTn2 properly. Waste of money.
Im located in Florida, USA. And i agree with wolfea, id like to stay away from ebay. ATT stores dont have a good selection now since the iPhone came out, they seem to stock acessories catered to the iphone users.

Point proven - I've finally just bought one from a standard online shop (UK based, no japan knockoff crap) and it works like a gem. Snug
Hey I'm going to get an HD2 VERY soon, was just wondering if anyone purchased one from any sellers located in Hong Kong, and if everything was as expected? I Just don't wanna pay for a fake lol.
I suggest not purchasing from a user with low reps, even if they have 100% feedback. If it is something you consider, ive ordered my htc kaiser from hong kong. They used ups, and guess what? When i recieved the phone i got charged atleast 100 from customs, which wasnt needed.. also the box was beat up.
Hope you´ll enjoy the great feeling to get a brick in a box
I once ordered an Universal (anyone remembering it?) from HK a looong time ago. Actually, I go a badly damaged box, had trouble with german customs and the device was a bad chinese copy of something that was was definitely not an universal. How much are you gonna save compared to a purchase in whereever you live?
Sometimes, that is not an option. It wasn't in my case, because nobody in Panama actually sells the HD2, and I think I might be the only person to own one in the entire country.
I generally dont buy these kind of things from Ebay as ive been stung before (even though the loser got caught and is behind bars .
If you must stick to the power sellers, check their feedback,look for volume sellers who have sold many, use paypal for a little more peace of mind in theory etc. good luck.
If you are based in the UK there are plenty of sellers that have got them as afree upgrade. I bought one for £335 in a sealed box and unlocked it to Orange for £7.20.
Someone I know purchased an iPod from a strange ebayer, with good rep, it arrived, looked just like an iPod, but had some weird OS on it which WASNT iPod and very nasty. Just becareful when buying items like this on ebay.
Hi all,
I am looking to sell my gen8 A101 so I can upgrade to a more powerful tablet (possibly a gen9 in a couple of weeks).
Here's the low-down:
I have all original packaging, cables, documents, etc.
The unit is still in "like-new" condition cosmetically.
I did root with churli method (but I left the android firmware on as well so you can still boot to stock android if you don't want to run the developer edition). I will remove the custom kernel if you want me to.
It is running on the latest firmware (2.3.26).
I will do a full reset of course before I send it to you.
I do currently have Zagg full protection installed, but I didn't do a very good job so it kind of looks bubbly. I can rip it off before-hand if you want, or I can just leave it on and you can decide if you want to get another screen protector or deal with my poor install job.
I prefer to do it through an eBay private auction w/PayPal so we both have the buyer/seller protection that comes along with that. I would also prefer to ship within the US but I am not opposed to ship outside the US, I would just need to research on the cost. I've never had to mail anything out of the US before.
Original cost was $299 from Newegg. I'll accept the first reasonable offer, but don't forget that if you are out of the US you'll have to pay for shipping as well.

Mine is expected to arrive on Wednesday (UPS). Will let you know then. Others may get it earlier and let us know about their experience.
The description on eBay does state that it may or may not come in the original packaging, so we'll see.
Any feedback on those that have their units already?

I just got mine a half hour ago. Came in the original nook packaging with sticker in the back of the box and another sealing the box that say "certified pre-owned nook"
Looks pristine (minor scuff in back where unit touches surfaces when put down--I stand corrected, it was no scuff, just some dirt). Screen is flawless, no marks whatsoever. Up and running after registering in a minute. Dowloaded my books and opened the one I'm currently reading at the bookmark left on my Nook Color.
Version 1.0.1
Will root later after work.
Currently listed on eBay for $112, but these retail online for $139 with free shipping anyway.
Granted, $27 is something, but is that enough to cover the risk/hassle of refurb hardware?

They're shipped by B&N and they come with a full warranty. I'm pretty sure most of them are returns from people who didn't care for it. It's a bit more than 27 when you factor in the state tax on 112 vs 139.
Am I the only one or has any one else gotten this? Your experience? Good or bad?
I bought one after dropping the one my girlfriend bought me for my birthday present. Wasn't able to fix the screen and couldn't find a replacement online. Got it within 3 days and it looks brand new. Really happy about it. She has no clue I broke the first one. Hoping to find a way to fix it in the future.
Wow, it gets better and better! You can now get a refurbished Nook Touch from B&N via eBay for $99 (down from $112) with free shipping.
EDIT: NOW DOWN TO $79!

It's so cheap now that I'm debating whether to buy a backup unit, just in case.
Canadians, where did you buy you D803's? Are there any online retailers that will ship internationally? I've been doing the rounds looking through the usual search engines trying to find any online store that will sell them. Bell will only ship to Canada, Rogers will only let you buy one in store, I've read that Telus has a slightly different radio configuration, so thats out.
I'm an American living in New Zealand and the D803 is the perfect LTE spectrum match for me, so I'm trying to find one anywhere. Even the e-harbor doesn't have listings. Is this thing too new? Will it show up online? Suggestions for where to look?
Sorry, not trying to seem spammy but I'm kinda stuck here.
Thanks for any help you can give.
I think the best alternative in your situation would be eBay. You can get new phones that someone else has bought from Rogers/Bell, opened the box just to unlock the device, and is selling it for probably $50 more. So I estimate $700 - $750. Ensure that the seller has a good rating, ships to AU, and watch the extra shipping costs, if any.
I have bought new phones from eBay a few times before, haven't been burned yet.
Looks to be one Bell G2 and one ATT G2 listed currently, was more when I looked a couple weeks ago (a Rogers one).
