Resale value? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

What's an approximate resale value for this phone currently? A lot has changed since the GS3 came out so was just wondering what people would pay for this

Sprint is only offering $105 and of course that's conditioned on what kind of shape your phone is in, but I still see them selling for around $250 on other sites.

Yeah, definitely $200- $250. That's what I plan on selling mine for on the Craigslist, OBO. Especially if it's in good shape and you still have the box.

I still see it going for 250+ in my area. I think it will take a month or so before it goes down much. But then again, I see them going for cheaper in more rural places. Used gs3's will be going for much more, and this phone isn't far behind it, from a hardware point of view. Look around your area for the relative value, it ranges wildly between regions.

What would be the prize of a 16gb s3 with taxes?? Around $230? If i could get $230 for my s2, I'd be happy!

There is a white epic 10/10 condition listed for $220 in marketplace but no takers. He's about to just trade it for an iPhone 4. The galaxy 3 and htc evo lte killed the epic touch's resale value overnight.

A month or so ago they were going for about $350+ in my area, they're at $200 now on craigslist. I was looking into trading for a Galaxy Nexus, I guess that won't happen now.

Anyone sell their 3D on craigslist to get this phone?

I'm wondering how much you sold it for and how long it took to sell. I see a buttload of them on craigslist in my area. I don't want to mark it rediculously low but I certainly don't want to make it too high to move.
I was going to list my Droid Charge, but Sprint offered me $185 trade in, so I took it. Saved me the hassle of selling it, and almost paid for my wife's E4GT.

Maybe that's because it doesn't look like an actual picture and condition of your phone. Try posting a more ordinary pic. People get scared by that extravagance attempted stuff. They think it's a scam. Oh and leave all the rooted and custom kernel talk out of it. Most people have no idea about that stuff.

For that price you basically robbed yourself LOL
just fyi for some people that sell on craigslist. Make sure your ad goes "live", meaning your ad actually shows up in search results.
Craigslist has this anti spam filter that says your ad is posted but never shows up in search results therefore no one can see it unless you give them the ad link. Had a problem with this when I tried to sell my evo 4g. Posted like 3 times and finally the last ad went live.
http://reviews411.wordpress.com/2008/05/12/craigslist-ad-not-showing-up-its-called-ad-ghosting/
I first posted it for $350. No bites. Then $325, still not bites. $300, nothing. $275, about 5 people interested and sold it the next day.
I currently have both my OG Epic and my EVO 3d and still no bites. I so want this phone.
Put it up for $250 and I sold it the next day. There were a lot up for 300 so I went for the big undercut to move it before Friday.

Pro-Tip: Don't break your Sprint GNex right now.

So a little more than two weeks after I bought my Galaxy Nexus (Sprint), it had a rather unpleasant meeting with concrete. The screen is so cracked, Charlie Sheen is impressed.
Right now they're on back-order with Asurion, so it could be up to two weeks before they ship my replacement. Not sure about the VZW Gnex.
Just wanted to share in case anyone else is as unlucky as I am.
Peace!
Or don't order from sprint...

How is it a rip-off? For $100 they're sending me a replacement. It would have easily cost a lot more than that to get the screen replaced, and the retail price of the phone is $550.

Actually, that's rather fortuitous for you. Asurion typically does not keep new phones on hand and stocks up on refurbs. What your current situation means is that you'll likely receive a new replacement. "up to two weeks" is their standard disclaimer, but you'll probably be without for just a few days while they acquire a new handset from Sprint and then shop it to you after they receive it. Same thing happened to me in January with the VZW GN.

Ebay. Craigslist is best though, because on Ebay you have to pay a listing fee and a percentage of the cost of the final sale.

Craigslist is your best bet, and how much is totally dependent on accessories and condition.

Called AT&T, told them I had read about people recently getting the S3 from them for $99 but they were at $199. Would they offer any deals/price matching. Said she could not but gave me a $70 credit towards my "purchase", which actually came off of last months bill. Went to Sam's and bought the phone for $148, 6% sales tax brought me to ~$157. All said and done, this made my purchase, on contract, be $87.
Off contract - would try Ebay, craigslist, or swappa.
off contract price new is lowest at AT&T $549 plus tax.
Used on craigs list will be around $400

Not true, I bought my brand new white GS3 a couple of months ago from ebay for $475 with $10 shipping. You just have to keep an eye out on "Buy it now" newly listed items. I find that people that list with buy it now tend to just want to get quick cash, and don't care about getting top dollar. Always make sure you check out their feedback and always deal through PayPal.
Some list the buy it now listings with best offer options for lower prices too. Just stay away from the auctions.

[Q] Selling Questions

Wife and I might be leaving Sprint due to having bad service at home and work, but not in between. How annoying is that if we're roaming and can't use our data? I got a call from Sprint offering a free out on both lines with no ETF due to data roaming that's occuring while I work. We have an Airave here that we got for free (and have no problem sending back to Sprint).
Anyway, onto the question. What price should we be looking at to sell our phones? Both are in great condition -- hers is white, and mine is black. Hers has an Otterbox Defender on it and mine has a Commuter.
I was thinking about $250 a piece for a total of $500 to help pay for our new phones on another carrier.
Thoughts and comments are appreciated! Thanks
I think your price is too high. $200 if you are lucky but $150-175 per phone is more realistic. This phone has been out over a year and used cases have very little value.

150-160 if you want to sell it real quick. 170-185 is where I personally would look for if I'm looking for a used GS2. $200 and above is really stretching it.
I sold mine for $300 on dec 1 with 2 batteries and 3 cases. I put an ad on craigslist nov 31 and by 9am dec 1 I had 3 ppl message me 2 offered 250 and one offered the asking price. It was gone by 10am and I was at sprint picking up my note2

I would've said $250 each at the minimum. Especially if they are in almost new condition since you've had cases on them.
Jist because this phone is a little over a year old it is still a great phone. If they are being sold now at $99 with a 2 year contract, $250 off contract for a like new with accessories is a great deal.
