[Q] Evo for sale question...

I looked but did not see a "for sale" section. Looking to sell my Evo and wasn't sure where to post. Any help in pointing to correct section would be greatly appreciated. It's revision 2 btw way...had phantom skinz protector as well as hard plastic case on from day one. Couldn't be in better shape.
Thanks guys/gals

There's a section called 'market'. Craigslist is probably easier though, more local
We're comin from a pure power source.

How much are you sellig it for ? I'm about to sell mine as well and I would like to know what would sound like a good price, I was thinking 300$ since I sold the iPhone 3GS for 200$ not too long ago but idk if is the right price

another vote for craigslist.org

swappa.com is not a bad place to start. Local is nice but not everyone will have luck with this. Maybe OP lives in the sticks in Tennessee. Doubt if Cletus and/or Linda Lou would wanna buy a smartphone Current prices on swappa are 285 and up to 400.

Sweet...appreciate the advice. Just listed on swappa.com. Went and tested the thunderbolt today for about 20 mins. Damn that thing is quick and smooth as butter. I love my evo and I have it running top notch, but there really wasn't a comparison.

Uhhhh....what?

Selling my evo:D

I put my EVO up on eBay moving onto the 3D one not a bad price for how new it is and mint also the stuff that comes with it only 3 months old.
How many of you moving onto the 3D ?

you might want to start the bid a something low and let it grow, it will be hard to sell when you start high. Just a fellow ebay power seller tip.
And i wish i could afford the 3d but i have to wait! lol

I may put mine up for sale too if I get the 3d for either 25 or 75 bucks (see other thread in general section)
I have original,launch day HW003 EVO (mint condition), Seidio 3500 mah battery and back case, HTC official dock, plus all original accessories (wall charger, USB cable, manuals, box, stock battery)

Sucker is clean sweet and wouldn't be selling just won't need it anymore and not gonna sell it for cheap since the phone by its self is 200 plus all the **** that comes with it is brand new would be shooting my self in the foot for selling it for anything less.

What were the differences between 003 and 004?

From what I have read camera been swapped out to fix issues people had in 0002 and 3 lcd been swapped out and the buttons feel better firmer . Camera is nice . Buttons feel better any quirks from the 0003 are fixed in the 0004 builds.

Ahh ok thanks, I never knew the differences
I'm waiting on my Sprint rep to call me and see what deal she can offer me on the 3D lol.
I hate the waiting game.

That's a good deal. Best eBay price when I bought mine (March '11) was $285...and that was for a refurb with ONLY phone/SD/battery shipped in an envelope!!

Help selling on ebay!

I'm debating putting my nexus up for sale on ebay and could use some advice...
What should I start off the bidding at? will be selling it with standard and extended battery.
Should I leave it rooted or return to stock?
Any idea roughly what I may end up getting for it?
Should I bother taking pics of the phone or just use a standard pic of the phone?
Will I have any problems trying to sell the phone with no history of selling items?

99p starting bid, it's free. Keep it rooted, put a 1.4 GHz kernel in it title it 'Galaxy Nexus, Rooted, overclocked 1.4 GHz with custom recovery'.
People will go mental for it. I've just sold my Desire for £150 because it's overclocked to 1.2 GHz.

Forgot to mention it is the verizon phone... Do I list it as Verizon or CDMA?

I don't know much about Verizon and CDMA, but I suppose if it's important you should mention it. I don't know how you transfer numbers with a CDMA phone.
Don't forget to mention you can relock the bootloader and easily flash a stock ROM if someone is worried about the warranty.

I'd say you should list it as "Verizon (CDMA/LTE)". The Verizon part is important as the at least the CDMA part of it will be locked to Verizon

I usually start bids off at 99 cents. As already mentioned, you can list it as rooted, but offer to return to factory state if the buyer requests. You should get close to what you paid if the phone is in mint condition. Always take pictures so the buyer knows exactly what they're getting (I take 3-4, showing the condition of the phone and accessories included). You won't have problems selling, every seller had 0 feedback at one point. Good luck

I've got a mint Nexus and a pro DSLR with a decent macro lens, I can take 3-4 nice close ups of you like? A good few pictures always helps you get a good price.

Hhhhmm so I'm not looking at getting much more than the $300 it costs with contract?

i agree 500- 600 easy and if you write your username on a pice of paper and photograph the phone on top of the paper, that helps persuade users that you are actually in possession of said product.
what to be careful of is users paying for it with zero feedback using a stolen CC

If it comes to that do I have the option not to sell to that person without a penalty?
Will it make a difference money wise if I list the phone as rooted or stock?

Just sell it rooted, you'll get more for it. Some folk haven't a clue about how to root a phone and will pay a premium for it. Trust me, I sell all my phones overclocked and rooted and I always do well.

Wow, very interesting, I thought selling rooted wouldnt be a good idea cause people may think they lost their warranty without a way back.

Like I said in post #4 just explain how easy it is to relock and flash the stock ROM using mskip's rooting method. Just word it intelligibly and people will be all over it.

Selling previous phones are always the way I get new ones.
I pretty much agree with above. List at least three different pictures (one of the front, back and a good angle showing everything you're listing such as the box and cables). Mention in the listing that they should contact you with any questions or if they want to see more pictures. Also make sure to mention something along the lines of "Anyone with zero feedback/International bidders email me first before bidding or I may remove your bid." in bold. This way those who are in those situations but serious about the item will contact you first. Then you just have to keep track of who bids. Removing a bid once usually keeps a joker from bidding again. And I wouldn't worry about price and what removing a bid might do. Right now this is rated as the best android phone out there (by reviewers, anyways). It'll still sell for $500 -$600 no matter what

How much for an epic touch 4g?

So i've moved on to the galaxy s3 on att and have no use for this phone anymore. It's in pretty good condition. How much can i expect to get from this thing. I want to put it on craigslist but there prices are all over the place.
I put it on there for 350 but no responses. What would be a fair price? I don't want to go too low.
Also I'm not trying to sell it on here, I'm not sure but i would assume thats against forum rules. If it's believed to be against the rules please delete my post or request i change it before banning me or anything.

Compare on ebay and see my signature.
:laugh:

Well Sprint will only give you $105 on a buyback and that's if the phone is in pristine condition. I'd definitely lower it to around $200-250 (the going prices I've seen so far). Also, check gazelle.com sometimes their price offering is way better than Sprint.
XDA has a marketplace for buying, selling & trading. Check it out, you can also get a better idea of what others are selling their E4GT for.

If I ever get rid of mine I'll be donating it to a developer. $105 & $98 are almost insulting for this phone. lol

from my observation youll only get 250 if u have a bunch of accessories (cases, extra chargers, etc.) not to mention a pristine phone. 200 is def closer to average.
my 2cents, this phone is nice enough to hang onto IMO just as another device to screw around. but i do like my toys. i suppose if ur gonna sell it now is the last shot to get 200, it will prob drop to 150 within the next 2 months.
also always nice to have a backup phone.

just a tip, open ebay app, search "epic 4g touch", click the refine button, choose "cell phones and smart phones" category, on the same page tick the box that says "sold items only", press done, what you now see is the range of amounts epic 4g touches have been selling for recently...

Just traded my evo 3d straight-up for one of these and am very impressed. I plan on giving it to a family member and taking an evo4g in trade. I will be hunting for another epic touch to replace it....great phone. They go for under 200 in my area.

Two great phones. The OG EVO still ranks as one of my favorites edged out only by the E4GT.
My son passed his E4GT to his dad in exchange for me giving him my OG EVO. He just likes the weight and feel of it. I think the E4GT almost felt too light and he was always worried he'd drop it while using it. lol He'll come back around at some point but it's great to see my EVO getting more use.

I've been seeing them go for 200-250 in the marketplace, price has really dropped on them since the release of the GS3.

Just a heads-up to XDAers with E4GTs for sale:
I'm about to test and see if the MVNO KDDI Mobile will allow Sprint phones to be allowed on their network - if it does there will probably be several in my office interested in buying phones. But I caveat that with this: It would be mainly for work purposes so they're probably only going to want 100, maybe 150 if they are interested.
Will post an update soon - but honestly I don't see how they won't let it if the ESN is clean and I factory reset to allow hands-free activation.

How much can I sell my note2?

I'm hoping not to start a flame war here...let me start by saying I do not hate my Note 2. I think it's a great phone.
The thing is, i haven't really used my stylus in any real sense, and it was really the main reason I got the device...also the multi-window. I only use multi-window while driving to watch a movie, while keeping a tiny segment of google maps on screen. This is really not something I should be doing anyway
thirdly...htc one.
anyway, my phone is well preserved, no scratches, and always had a case and screen protector since day one. how much should I be able to sell this device? I have no experience selling phones, what's the best way to do this? Any advice would be great. my phone is under contract. is there issues i need to know about?

My best advice would be to shop around.. EBay and Craig's list would b good places to get a idea of a fair price.. EBay auctions definately because the buyers set the price.. Just b sure to shop around and don't stop on 1 price.. Good luck to u..

Your best option if your not familiar in selling is to use swappa.com. It's a great way to sell your phone. No eBay fees and only charge is the $10 you pay after selling phone. Just remember to calculate shipping costs on your asking price. And don't sell yourself short if your phone really is in good condition. Just look at previous sold phones and what they sold for and base it on that.
Other option is Craigslist. Only problem with this is you'll get lots of spam emails and hagglers trying to get a great phone at a cheap price. But if you somehow find someone that is worth it you keep all the profit. Just make sure you sell in a public place and take a counterfeit money pen to make sure your not being duped. Best thing is to meet at a Sprint store.
Good luck. If you have any questions feel free to message me. I do this all the time. Have sold my last 2 phones on swappa and a couple on Craigslist.

Swappa is becoming the best place to sell your phone since they only charge 1 fee. The only other fee you pay is with PayPal once you get paid. You must use PayPal. They also only sell phones that are in working condition and with clean esn. So far more and more people shop and sell on swappa. You can even link your phone sale on Twitter and Facebook. Just go on there and look at info they give you before you sell. It's easy and if your price seems high you can compare it to other phones and see how much they sold for. You can even lower the price anytime you want, or raise it.

I just checked local Craigslist, cheapest I've seen for a Sprint Note-2 is $400, seen one that was flashed to Cricket for $349. Most are 400 and up.

Thanks guys. Very helpful

All my phones have been sold through eBay. Even after the fees and PayPal fees, I feel that's where I pocket the most money after the sale. That also include shipping.
HAHA. MultiView - watching movies with GPS on the other screen.

Not to hijack the thread @THE op.. But you can sell a phone that's under contract right and avoid fees with a phone not being on the line by just getting a cheap phone to put on it until you sell the main phone right?

Comes with 2 iSmooth screen protectors (the 3rd is installed...semi-perfectly, with a lint trapped in the upper left side, away from the screen) + sprint body glove case + all accessories, and original box.
looking for whatever the lowest in price in swappa. shipping included. this is the titanium version.
Caveat though, I can't ship it until I receive my new phone.
