Craigslist is better
I buy all my phones off craigslist now. I used to get ebay by searching for deals then I found out what kind of crap they are involved in and their corrupt practices with paypal so I switched to craigslist (Although ebay does own quite a lot of stock of clist, it doesn't require that I give them any money...)
There are a lot of people who have phones they simply don't know how to use, and so really don't know the true value of the device. That's when I buy them.
The touch pro 2 I have now I purchased for 50$
I also purchased a Desire recently for 100$
Many other phones besides.
Did I also mention that you can resell them there? And it's good for the economy

I'm looking to get a Touch pro 2 in the UK. Does anyone know the cheapest place to buy one? Most places seem to be £450+!

Ebay is the best place to get a cheap one - they sometimes go for £300 brand new, which is a great bargain!
Theres a few places about, even Ebay like the previous poster suggested. but of all the HTC approved sellers. I,lld suggest you use Devicewire. I got my TyTN 2 from them and had no problems. I also got my Touch Pro 2 from them but I exchanged it cos I strongly beeived the first one wasnt actually brand spanking new. Not that there were any marks on it but the factory screen protector was missing and there were finger smudges all over it. Anyways I got a replacement device with a discount i.e I paid the advertised price on the day the replacement device was shipped (£452.99). Handtec are cheaper than Devicewire but as I found out when I bought a TyTN 2 from them (it was returned), they sell Grey imports.

If you want it cheap, you might consider getting it on contract from Vodafone. You can get one with no up-front payment on a £35 a month contract that runs for 18 months. If you want "unlimited mobile web" then you're pretty much going to be paying £20 a month for a contract anyway, so that means you're basically only paying £15 a month for 18 months for the phone - which works put at £270, with 18 months interest-free credit. You get either 750 minutes, 250 texts and unlimited landline calls, or 900 minutes and unlimited texts.
It can be even cheaper if you're willing to commit to a 24-month contract.
The phone will be unlocked (so you can change contract at the end of 18 months) and I believe it can be debranded without too much difficulty.
I'm a personal believer in www.expansys.co.uk for new devices. Sometimes they can be a tad more expensive but I cant fault their customer service at all.
Its swings and roundabouts... I paid £450 for mine from expansys.

Hi,
I think it is becoming increasingly difficult to find Touch Pro 2.
The only way to purchase it seems to be over the internet as no store seems to be carrying it in stock anymore.
The lowest price I found was $129.99 from BestBuy with 2 year contract, but without rebate over the holiday. (Sprint) What was the lowest price people purchased for HTC Touch Pro 2 (with or without contract)? Is AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile version still available for purchase?
AT&T still sells the tilt 2 on their website. It is $200 with a 2-year contract. I paid $160 for mine a few months ago with a discount for upgrading my line.
I bought a like new Tilt2 from craigslist for $100. AT&T stocker... I usually see them in the $200 range. have seen a T-Mobile TP2 or two in the same range. You may have to be patient to find what you want but it'll show up sooner or later.
I bought two AT&T HTC refrubished TP2s off of Ebay for $175 each. HTC did the refurbishing not the seller. They were both like new even had the stock screen protectors on them. Got one in May and the other in December.
I see them new on eBay for around $200 with no contract. AT&T web site has $200 with contract as stated previous. I bought mine on eBay like new for $150.
So yes, online is probably your only option..
If you live in Chicago I will sell you my unlocked tmobile touch pro2 PM me if you are interested.
Keep in mind if you buy it through your cellular provider, that they may require you get a data plan. Buying it else where, you may not be rquired to get a data plan. You would access the Internet via WIFI connections. Keep in mind if you are not required to get a data plan, then you could save $10 per month or more.
Bought two through Ebay
I bought two used TP2s without contracts through Ebay in the middle of January. I paid $100 + $10 shipping for one from an Ebay phone reseller with thousands of feedbacks and a near 100% rating. It was described as in "good" condition, but didn't have a mark on it anywhere and was in clean, like new condition. It didn't come with any accessories or the Sprint SIM card.
I paid $150 + $10 shipping for the other TP2 from a seller with almost no feedback. It came with a good spare battery, SIM card, a charger, data cable, original box, manual, screen protector, and I believe a CD. It was described as a month old and barely used. It has a couple of very minor marks and wasn't as clean as the other phone.
Both were activated with Sprint with no problems before the new $10 a month additional data fee was imposed. I also bought 2 year Square Trade warranties on both phones for around $20 a piece. My wife and I couldn't be happier with the phones.
So I moved onto the Atrix and have a brand new Tilt 2 that I pretty much want to sell and seeing as AT&T is selling this phone for damn near $600 what would be a good price to get a fast sale for this?
I was looking to sell for $350....
Any advice

Check eBay, you will see you can buy brand new "AT&T Tilt 2 New" in the box for $249 - $349, so you'll never sell a used one for $350. You may see some used ones on there as well to get an idea of price for a used one...
My Tilt 2 is brand new I got it from insurance before I upgraded to the Atrix, but $300 to $350 seems to be the norm

I would advice you to go no higher than $200. Even if it is new from insurance, they generally send out refurbished devices for warranty replacements now. AT&T and Sprint are the only US carriers still offering the device brand new. It is an old device now. Also, it's generally nice to offer the devices at a lower price on XDA in order to contribute a bit to the community. Offering it to chefs for a low rate is also another good idea. Some chefs don't cook for certain devices anymore as they don't have the device anymore for whatever reason. These are all of my suggestions.
is this a good price?

it may be a scam, dont know
How can you say if it's a deal or not? The bidding doesn't end for 2+ days. and there's no BIN option...
I paid $100 for an almost brand new Tilt 2 and $125 for one with more wear and tear. Both from craigslist. I considered the new one to be a good deal.
This seller has no, ZERO, feedback and no evidence at all that he has ever sold something on eBay. I wouldn't touch this one with a 10 foot pole. If you buy from some of the sellers that have tons of positive feedback you can't go wrong, this person is very high risk if you ask me.
FYI to anyone interested: Sprint is selling the Moto Z2 Force Edition for $120 for the full price, no contract or lease. I ordered one a few days ago after researching the device, GREAT PHONE! It pretty much has the internals of the Samsung GS8, so I thought I should buy one and I was not wrong, at least so far.
Sprint and Best Buy are selling at $120. Not sure if anyone else is.
Also looks like we have a bootloader unlock and root method? I was so pissed about the Galaxy S7 bootloader because I pre-ordered one. Never again will I pre-order, I sure learned my lesson there.
Only "major" problem so far is the tempered glass screen protector, which I did take note of during my investigative process before purchase. Turns out I also am a victim of that, so I suppose the route is the film-type screen protector.
In summary, buy this phone at the price point! You will not regret it. Also, Sprint's Kickstart $25/mo unlimited promo plan, you can still buy this phone at this price straight from Sprint. Best Buy, you can buy it unactivated for $159, and afaik Best Buy is sold in-store only.
Best of luck to you deal searchers out there!
Yea just got one at best buy and I'm on the sprint free one year unlimited, plan service is not bad.
Hm, with the screen. I will never understand what the people mean with the scratches. I have this phone for a very long time and no one scratch until today. There are people who tell that they got scratches just after one day. How? Ok, maybe I have to wait one year to see any scratches on my Z2 Force For 799€ the phone should be over the top.
i saw the sale to late.
sprint website is out.
local stores have stock but mysterisouly arent allowed to sell unless purchased online.
att and verizon willing to price match but both are out of stock!
ebay reseller scum have plenty of stock at 2-3 X the price!
i dont buy phones often but i would buy this in a heartbeat.
i am proud to say i am totaly hosed on this sale YAY!!!
