Where Can I find a Galaxy SIII for cheap?

I need to find a place where I can find the SIII the cheapest one with a contract and another without a contract.

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.

I'm in a really tight spot, my sister pre-order the iphone 5 at radio shack and they made her purchase a gift card for $50, to buy the iphone 5 when its in store. Now I'm thinking of her getting the SIII. However, I don't want to her to pay for $200 for an SIII when I know radio shack had it for $100 not too long ago. Do you think I should just make her buy the iphone 5?

Amazon wireless for the contract one. And swappa for the off contract one.

I traded mine straight up for a s3. Gotta be patient. I had to pass a lot of deals. The S3 has a lot of hype, so people want a lot for it. But the One X is great. Id do 100 max if you had too.

Yes I understand this is kinda a sacrilegious post, but has anybody been able to sell their phone? If so, what price and how long did it take you to get it sold?

I have not personally sold mine, however I have seen people getting up to $500 for it if it's in mint condition
However you can definitely get $400 for it easily, and at $350 it will move in 24 hours or less I'd bet.
Check craigs list and ebay to see what others are selling for.

Seems like everybody want to sell their s3 and get note 2. On ny craiglist there are too many offer to sell or trade.
So I am not even keeping that option.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

I'm also in NY and for me to move this quickly in mint condition it would take me selling for $350 or less with all my accessories Nd that's not happening. I'll keep my gs3 as powerful as the note 2 is it doesn't justify the money I have to spend getting it over the s3. Sadly neither does the n4.
I wonder what the next step for android will be. The sgs3 was a nice "jump" and the note 2 is a little move forward but I'm looking for a leap before I move anything.

Are there any sites selling this for cheap?

I know the new nexus is out but I want a Samsung made phone. I assumed that google would continue selling these with a lower cost but they did not. I don't want to pay $300 for a galaxy nexus because I could get a nexus 4 for that. Do you think the galaxy nexus price will drop?

You gotta put this in Q&A.
Since I'm already here.
I got my gnex a month ago on eBay for 182.00$.
If was posted as rooted and a couple people bid on it so I had to wait it out two hours and last second bid.
I have it and its mint. No scratches. Super clean!!!.
At the moment people are going to be cheap. They are going to jack up the price so they get a N4 for free.
Try to wait a couple months or Craigslist and eBay it. But just some advice , the cheap ones will be in horrible used condition.

If you are signing up for a contract, Amazon has them for 1 cent.

That's like $400. Considering I was willing to let mine go for $250 I'd consider that a rip off but I have no clue how different the markets are.

Xperia z= no spen, no multi Window, scratch prone and untested. This is a no brainer. I can almost guarantee 99% of the people on here will agree that the note 2 is the best phone they have ever owned.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2

I was a proud supporter of HTC for a long time. I bought the GS3, and two days later sold it. I didn't like how the screen made TW feel incomplete. Then I bought the N2, and damn, TW is amazing!!!! I don't see myself ever going to anything other than the Note series. As long as Samsung keeps updating, I will always be one of the first adapters. Honestly, I was sort of ashamed of myself I waited so long to buy it (bought it DEc 27)
I will say this, after using this phone, even the GS3 has a small screen. My old One S is super tiny, and lets not talk about iPhone's, those are literally toys in size compared to the sheer massive screen. So be prepared to never go back to anything under 5.5

Who the hell would buy a an s3 for 640....it retails for 549!
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

I came from s3 and iphone 5. Note 2 hands down is the best phone and best choice. Phone is amazing. You will love it.
C.S.

I still have my s3, but since I got my note 2 it has been in a drawer for over a month untouched. The note 2 is so awesome my s3 just seems like a phone I would give my 10 year old daughter because it is of no use to me. Definitly won't regret going note 2. It is a badass phone man. Seriously this phone is awesome.

Went from the s3 to the Note 2. If you want the best......well, there it is.

I have an old bracelet from my father that is worth the world to me, for you most likely not worth anything. Moral of the story go get yourself a note and try it out. Nobody can tell you the worth of one of YOUR items. That is if you end up getting it of course.

Who would have thought that one could swap a S3 for a Note II and actully make a few bucks. You can buy a brand new, unlocked N2 for $627.50.

I would be concerned this guy is gonna report it as stollen get a new Note 2 from insurance company and have your imei blocked giving you a $400 paper weight, I hope for your sake I am just to cynacal for my own good, and that you just got a great deal, but I always think if a deal seems too good to be true it usually is.

I have had every phone worth having since the first IPhone and the G1 and this is by far the best one hands down. I got lucky and got mine for free from TMobile loyalty department because my sg3 I broke and they didnt add the insurance like they were supposed to. They were gonna just send another sg3 and I asked if he could send a Note 2 instead and he said sure lol I was lucky as hell.

[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

Just wanted to let you guys know that I sold both phones for $200 each. One with an Otterbox Defender and the other with a Commuter.

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.
