Trading Question for S3 - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey guys I really would like to get an s3 and I found someone willing to trade for my HTC one X and 150$. In addition I would have to unlock it as its on Bell and I use Rogers. You guys think its worth it? Thanks.

That's about right looking at my local craigslist.

Aren't they going for more or less the same $ right now... Don't know why you'd pay him a additional $150, I'd say half that at $75.

Thanks Gunny, I loved seeing you on the One X forums ^^. as for the prices where i'm art the s3 is always over 450 and the one X is starting at 300 so i don't think its too bad.

I sold my one x on the xda marketplace for 350. Easy as pie.

Yea you were very helpful on those forums. Thank you. Also just letting everyone know I got the deal done for $130. Got an S3!!!!!!

i paid 60 bucks plus my One X for a GS3 within an hour of posting my trade on craigslist.....and i felt like I got REALLY lucky.
Now i'm wishing I would have kept my One X.....much better phone besides the poor development

You paid to much. I did the swap with only $75.00 on my part and the S3 was new.

Idk where I am in Ontario Toronto, most people who are trading the one X pay up between 100-150 as the phone sells for like 350 here and the S3 sells for like 450 if your lucky.

You got a pretty good deal, the one x is an awesome phone but people are jumping ship because the dev is more or less taking a nose dive with how locked down the phone is. Last I checked for my my one x there still wasn't root for the newest update, or newest last I checked and that's been out for a month or two.

Almost 2 months and there's no root for the shipping firmware on the one x.

Had the one s. Its nice, has pros and cons but the non-removable battery ended up breaking the deal. I'd say go for it.
You could get more than 80. At least 100

Htc one s is whatevers but it's what the public values the 2 phones that matters. almost a year old phone vs a couple months.

Yeah. But i also dont think what the public values matters because half the public dont even know what they are talking about.. i mean seriously, an SGH-T999 for freaking 500 dollars on CL? Are you insane? its not a laptop. its a cell phone.
The part i dont even get is when the One S first came out it was going for 500 on CL as well, its like they think because its just been released they can charge 500 for it... then they go saying that the retail price is 600, well no crap, the Galaxy S2 is still 540. Its marked up so high because the carrier WANTS that two year contract.

If you use CL, be sure to do it the right way. There are some horror stories over in the AT&T section about using CL.
I had my note2 on CL for 2weeks @ $455 with no results. just low offers.
then, listed on swappa.com.... only took 1 day SOLD! @ $485!
swappa ftw

Crazy buy back at phones4u!

Hello all,quick heads up.
I just upgraded to the gs4. I must say it's a proper step forward. Screen is so much nicer to use.
I did the upgrade in phones for you. Moved from Orange to EE. I had 10 or so months left on my contact and the shop gave me £170 for my one x! cash! so I only had to pay a nifty to get the new device and pay the old contract off. I had weak wifi and bluetooth issues and cyanogen 10.1.
I thought it was a good deal.

Why is this posted in the One X forum?
Errr......didnt I mention they purchased my one x for a reasonable price....which could be seen as a potential aid for one x owners wanting to sell their one x, therefor one could say this would be of more help to one x owners than anyone else....
Where do you think it should be posted?
It wouldn't be much help to anyone who didn't own a one x.....

Well answered was it a px deal only for contract users I'm looking to buy htc one but wanna trade my one x... Basically I don't wanna pay more than 400£ for one.

Yeah they gave the deal to me as long as I did my upgrade through them, it was a sideways upgrade from orange to ee.
Not sure what happened to the post police member agility......
He must approve of this now as he hasnt demanded any more information as to why I put a post relating to the htc one x in the htc one x forum.
Or he is busy trolling else where.

That's why. If you've been with them for 8+ years, they make exception.
Friend of mine has a connection at T-Mobile and he tried to get it taken care of for me when customer service said no. First thing he asked was if I've been with them at least 8 years.

That's how I got my Galaxy Note 2 today. I only had my Galaxy S3 for 13 months but I still got the Note 2 for free. The catch was I had to increase my plan by $26 for 24 months. I also enrolled in the jump program. So I ended up spending around $60 today and I kept my GS3. They offered me $190 for it.

wait i thought with the JUMP! program, you had to trade in your old device?
Honestly, T-Mobile always sells phones a bit more expensive then they actually retail for.
If I had seriously wanted the S4 I'd root my S3 that's in flawless condition with a Balistick SG Maxx case, have it prerooted stock 4.1.2 and sell it for 350$. Then go on eBay turn around and buy the international unlocked version of the S4 for like 250$ more. It's more expensive out right, but much cheaper in the long run.
Been on my mother's T-Mobile phone line since I was a kid and had a Motorola RAZR v3. So more than 12 years for sure when she started using T-Mobile. Somewhere in 1999 I fink.

What are rooted/s-off Verizon Ones going for?

Considering selling my One fairly soon and was wondering what the going rate is. Since as far as I know there isn't a current exploit I thought maybe being rooted/s-off might be worth something...

I think there's one on Swappa right around $325 when I checked a few days ago. Not sure if it sold or not. I'd bet you can get around $300 before they take out their fees. You'll probably be able to get more on Craigslist depending on where you're located.

Don't see them going for a premium price as someone has already said they have a root exploit for 4.4 2 but he won't release it till Aug. So not like the phone is locked down forever. But there are idiots that will always pay more for something

I picked mine up for $350 off Craigslist in LA. They're all going for around $350 here rooted or not. Highest I saw was 360, lowest 300.
Not much since the price of them dropped from $599 to $499. From what I see, an HTC One in good shape, maybe with a few extra accessories, can get you $400 or a little more or a little less, depending on if you have the original box/any scratches/phone and accessories in their packaging. Surprisingly I've seen HTC One Maxxs sell for $450 for ones that are in near perfect shape. With the taxes and fees that ebay and paypal add to the sellers, if you sold an HTC One for $400, you would really only see about $350 of that. I think it's a better deal if you can sell one locally, to either a friend or family member, possibly through friends on Facebook. Something that I am considering doing to my HTC One, so that I can upgrade to the HTC Maxx.
I have an HTC One that was S offed by Sonic with a java card. I have not seen any posted. I imagine that if I labeled it as " Being able to work on almost any carrier." I could probably fetch up to $450 or more for mine. With the right knowledge and understanding on this phone with it being S off / Unlocked / Rooted it really could work on any carrier. straight talk, AT&T, page plus, Viaero, Tmobile, and sprint, since I believe that it is also a worldwide phone that has all of the GSM and CDMA bands inside of it.
I didnt notice modded phones going for more. Thats part of the android experience learning the ins and outs of a new device.
