Insane Purchase Price! - Nexus 7 (2013) General

I decided the nexus 9 was to big and that I would just by a nexus 7. But when I was on Ebay I saw this. Who in the world is going to buy a nexus 7 for $6,132. Apparently 52 people. I got me a mint condition 32gb for 165 with a case with swappa.

Or....52 could've been sold at a reasonable price, and then the price was raised to make it look good. Not sure how eBay works.

I also got mine off of swappa. $130 with a case. Like new 16gig with a case. Love swappa!

No, no, no. This is commonly done when supply runs out to keep people from buying one, they just raise the price absurdly high. Their item will stay relevant in searches and it'll keep the sold history, but no one will buy it.

That's crazy price. I got my 32G N7 a few weeks back from Walmart clearance for $158

Thanks for that explanation, not the first time I've seen this absurdity.
Bought my 16gb flo for $90 on eBay, pattern locked. Nothing a reset didn't take care of. It now lives in my Acura's dashboard (replaced my factory nav unit).

Got my 16gb in "fair" condition tablet only from Gazellestore on eBay...$79.99 shipped. Couldn't pass it up and was expecting the worst...it arrived MINT. They had several available so I believe they were just liquidating stock and put fair condition to cover all bases...I probably just got lucky with a mint example

Sellers sometimes raise the price to an unimaginable selling price when they're temporarily out of stock but don't want to remove their listing. Then they lower it back to normal when they have more.

I got my 16gb new a year ago from office Depot black Friday for 189 With a $25 gift card....

I see this often on ebay. The seller is either out of stock or out of town so they do that. I just got a manufacturer refurb 16GB for $126 on eBay.

I got my brand new 32GB Nexus 7 for $179 at Staples almost a year ago with a $20 coupon, and a price match for Micro Center. Still the best deal I've seen IMO.

Just bought one on Amazon for 169.99. My old N7 was really large and the N9 is too steep of a price.

Groupon has 16gb wifi new for $169. Which is hilarious because I paid $165 a year ago at office Depot.
We needed a second tablet with more than a gig of ram. We opted for the galaxy tab 4 7.0 because staples was selling them for $99....

ATTENTION!! Radio Shack is paying you $150 for your Nexus One

This is a joke, well i guess it is more like an insult to the intelligence of Nexus One owners, i wonder how many would actually do the "Trade IN".
So for the ones who don't want to read, yeah you get $150 for your nexus one, this sounds worse than what car dealers do.

I work for radio Shack and they would have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Also they probably wouldn't want mine considering " bad mother Fu<ker " is engraved on the back. =D
this is what we called stupid population... radio shack is filled with nothing than morons and run by them.. if i see or hear anyone doing this trade.. they have to be crack dealers and needed of crack.. cause no smart person will do this..
I would give them a bricked nexus one for that, but that's about it

I remember my cousin threatened to break my N1 and I was like then you'll owe me like 500 bucks...he was like "please, a new iPhone 4 is only a bit more than 500 no way your phone is worth 500"
granted he was right....on e-bay and craigslist the lowest price I saw was 400...but still...that's 9 months after release and still worth 400 USED...
amazing.
150 is an insult...I

You can do better - they are going for between $350-$400+ based on condition and original packaging/accessories on eBay.
Am waiting for the new MyTouch HSPA+ to come out. If it is a decent device and not too locked down (although thst will certainly be dealt with here), then and only then would I consider letting go of my Nexus - and certainly not to RS.
Ok buddy!
Does anyone have their customer service email? I would like to write them an email laughing at their ridiculous offer! hahahahahahaha
never letting go
I have the G2 now but i love my N1s.. both of my N1s!!!

I'd never sell my n1. The fact that it's pure android with no manufacturer ui, it gets updates the day that they come out, and google basically made it to be rooted, are all priceless features no manufacturer is willing to replicate. The Nexus One is one of a kind for now.

You know I am almost thinking of preordering this thing. I have wanted a tablet for sometime and I have been looking at the Transformer as my first choice. This however looks like a great device for the price for what I would be using it for. Basically an e-reader, as I already read all my books on Kindle Software on my EVO, watching movies on the go either from HBO Go, Netflix or even Amazon's services and maybe some light web browsing and email.
So the question is, buy it now and have in in November and wait for the wonderful folks here to root the thing so I can run what I want on it OR wait until someone else gets them and puts out a review on it?
hmmmm..what to do what to do...
Do they charge your card if you pre-order? Or does it only charge when it ships out? I'd hate to have $200 something out from my credit card balance for over a month. It wont be out until November (mid).
I could have sworn I've seen Amazon preorders say "You won't be charged until this item ships" but that seems to be lacking for the Fire.
Can anyone that has preordered confirm if they've been charged?
Pre-ordered while in class . Can't wait for this thing to get into my hands. Praying that there won't be a locked bootloader. If not this thing has a shot of running a homebrew Ice Cream Sandwich!
Edit: I'll let you know if I get charged in an hour or two.
I pre-ordered this morning and have not been charged yet, so I'm assuming they will not charge until it ships.
I preordered as soon as it was up.figure worst case i give it as a gift. But im really intrested to see how a 7 inch tablet works out.
Current use ipad2 but been wanting something smaller.
I am getting one for the wife - just her speed I think...
I'll stick with my ASUS EP121 and ExoPC slates for me.
Amazon charges you when the item ships. So if you pre order, you have a couple months to decide what you really want to do.
I just went ahead and preordered one. I just read on AndroidTablet.com that Amazon acknowledged that this device will be easily rooted and that they won't stand in the way of it happening.
I figure I will get it, play around with it while the great folks here figure out the process and then I will decide if I want to keep it or not. For $200 I am not out much and I can give it away as a Christmas gift or return it if I don't like the thing.
DONE! How can you pass it up at that price? And with XDA throwing knives at it..... This is the entry point for E-readers and Tablets....
I ordered a couple for my family. We have the older kindles and it looks like a worthy upgrade.
I ordered one and the new $79 kindle as well. Cannot wait.
I preordered a few days ago. I still have not been charged for it yet.
And I have preordered things from amazon before. They don't charge until the day it ships.
As per usual the U.K has to play the waiting game and will probably be 40% more expensive when it eventually gets here...... Grrrr

Sidenote: The Google bumper is GREAT (in terms of protections and looks). Even my friends said that the phone looks better with the bumper on.

No way it could have those specs for $300 when it came out. It was easily a $500 phone at the time. That means it would be well under $200 now, by your logic. Think.
Wow, best price for new N6 so far....

How about these ways:
Camera - that shouldn't be hard. Just have a camera that can actually focus would be great while taking videos
Smaller bezels - I hope, the Nexus 6 has huge bezels which make it really wide, more than it should be
CPU - Even if it is the Snapdragon 810, the gpu is 30% faster. I am sure the overheating issue will be improved upon by now. Could always declock the cpu if needed
Fingerprint reader - Might be really cool, but I can take or leave this
Screen - I was dissapointed in the screen coming from a Note 3 to a Nexus 6. I felt the Note 3 had a brighter, clearer, more vibrant screen. Even if the resolution was lower.
Flat Back - Man it drives me nuts that when I put the N6 on the Qi charger I have to set it soo perfectly.
Just my opinion though.
there was also a coupon code for an extra 45 bucks off. crazy how the price is dropping so much.
doesn't seem to have much information on what type of warranty this nexus 6 has. I'd make sure you find all the information on that first before you buy. Might be better to go with amazon or best buy for the 50 bucks extra to make sure you get a solid warranty with it. If someone finds the information regarding it on this ebay sale please post it.

Same. Got the black too. I'm so cheap.
Actually I think the black will be better in the long run for cases and possibly skins. Not sure what color skin I do with that blue.
I got mine for $300 too, blue was the only option though. My best buy didn't carry the other colors, unless I wanted to order, which would have taken like 3 weeks to arrive.
for the price it is the best quality/price phone ever IMO

Let's talk about being cheap Lol. I cancelled my wife's phone, and then reordered it, because Amazon drop the price of the white one to $259.99 from $264.99 lol.. I took that extra $5 and bought some of those mirco usb to usb type c adapters so I wouldn't have to by all new cables.
