Post Prices here for ATT Note II

Might be a good idea to post non premiere/ATT pricing here as more non early adopter people like me begin to look for the Note II deals.
I have not decided between this and the N7100 yet. But I am leaning towards the ATT version if I can save $400.
Costco has the S3 for $129 and the Note I for $99.I wonder how much the Note 2 will be.
. Had my Note on Ebay for a half a day at $250 and decided to take it down and wait till after black Friday and see what deals pop up. I am not going to call ATT to play CSR roulette for $100 off. Deals should be popping up soon off the ATT grid. Already have Multi Window and Gmail 4.2. Frankly multi window is as gimmicky as the pop out video. MAybe on a 10" tablet it would be worthy

Asked the sales guy at the costco the other day. They dont have it yet but soon they will. He said it would run around $250 w/new or 2 yr contract extension

The Costco here said it will likely be around $279 with a pile of junk covers and protectors and stuff.

Any idea if they will have it for $199.99 for Black Friday (11/23)

That's the magic number for me to upgrade. I know some are playing CSR roulette and getting that price. I would rather wait and see who blinks.

First, +150 is not a good deal. +50, or if the note is coming with accessories maybe. I just picked up the Note 2 brand new from Tmo for 170 out of pocket, 366 + 200 rebate. Since the price is 300+tax + 200 rebate you could just go get one from a store and sell your GS3 for 4-500.
I'd tell him that, then offer him a straight swap, only reason he is looking to sell the note is because he doesn't like it, and the GS3 is the only phone at the moment that compares so that means he wants one.

I sold my S3 2 weeks ago for $400 on craigslist within a half hour of listing it. Im sure I could have got more for it. If the Note 2 is brand new in a sealed box from someone you trust, and you know its not stolen, then go for it. That means you'll be paying about $550 for the Note 2. You'll be saving about $100+- over non contract retail. If its used, then I would probably cough up the extra $100 and get a brand new one from TMo with a 2 week return if you didnt like it.

Cheapest place to buy a GNOTE2

What is the cheapest anyone has gotten the Note2 for and , where could i find it for the cheapest price?
mods* if this doesnt belong here please just move it, or if its already been asked please link me to that thread

For me, Craigslist or Ebay.. But Craigslist is really really.. It's 50/50. I would rather pay more and just buy at a retail store or someyhing. So many people getting their phone's IMEI blocked after buying from CL and stuff. Try Swappa

what about meeting the seller at a tmobile store and having tmobile activate it right there and there could they block it after wards?

Here's the link to an earlier thread ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957825

+1 for swappa. I bought a TMobile 7.0+ and an i717 off there with no issues. I'm looking for a white collar collar job this fall when I finish working beach volleyball and I'll probably be buying a Note 2 off there.

I've bought a couple on local craigslist for $400 in like new condition. They do pop up from time to time. It seems the going rate in the Ventura area is $475. I stumbled across a Verizon one for $350. It had chewed up chrome bezel and battery door. I spent $25 on replacing them and got $500 for it. So don't be afraid of body damage as long as the glass is in good shape.

been looking and have found some a lil bit lower.. im actually looking at two right now
1st) is a Sprint Gnote2 already flashed to pageplus ( which is what i would do with it if i get it anyways) for $220
2nd) is Tmobile Gnote 2 clean imei for $300
cant decide
one hand one is cheaper and pageplus works off verizon towers which would give me good reception wherever i am but fastest data speed is 2mb down .. pageplus plan for $70 with 5gb data is the plan i would get on this...
the tmobile is more expensive , i would get the $70 plan have unlimited data but some complain about call quality and coverage and i use phone for work so not sure... tmobile data would obviously be alot faster and you could talk and surf and the same time which is not a requirement but a plus..
still trying to decide ...aaarrggghhh

Check Amazon every once in a while for deals through personal sellers. For ex. I got a brand new unopened and unlocked iPhone 5 for $480 shipped about 3 months after release just because of how cheap it was.. Used it for 3weeks or so and turned around and still sold it for 788 on ebay

That doesnt make sense to me. Why would people pay more than the retail price for a used phone? People on ebay are crazy

U didnt mention its 64gb lol. Tought it was 16

I do agree that some people do crazy things on ebay especially.
I have seen crazy seller too. As in listing for used s3 starting at
899.00
But to each is his own.
I got my note2 on ebay for 435.00 includ shipping.
But I had to hunt for it almost 6 month.

I got my note 2 for tmobile from wirefly. com for 300 but had to sign a new contract

Anything on Craigslist/ Ebay/ Amazon for really cheap- Less than $400 or so, I would consider suspicious. Especially the ones that look really new. Some people claim on insurance and the one they are selling you is the one they probably got off of insurance by ripping someone else off. Ebay is a little better because they have buyer protection- but still, it's only 30 days and the original owner can report lost/stolen, claim insurance after 30 day period.
Bought a Note 2 for $500 brand new and a week later, got it blocked.
I have heard that if you meet with the seller at a Tmobile store, they'll be able to switch over the IMEI- but make sure it's not on a payment plan or you'll be screwed even if you switch over the IMEI..

[Q] Best Buy Showing Note 4 Verizon version as $349 today.

I've been looking at the pre-order page on BB to see if the Verizon version was available to pre-order online. Last night the price showed as $299 on contract and not yet available. Today it shows $349 on contract and not yet available. Did they up the price or is this just an error?
Wont let me post a link to it...

crap that isnt good. i was hoping $699 for off contract. crap time to sell more stuff!
still $699 at verizon! yay

Hopefully that is not the price in store as well.
Its still cheaper than verizon considering that they will accept my htc rezound as a trade in phone while verizonwireless will not.
Just hope I get some one who knows how to transfer an upgrade from one phone number to another.

When I pre ordered in store it was 299 better be that when I go to pick it up or there getting a ear full

fyi from what they told me, pre-ordering the phone doesn't mean locking in the price. if the price changed you're responsible for the new price. that's what they told me in store anyway

According to the website, the ATT and Verizon Note 4 variants are listed as $299, the Sprint Note 4 variants are listed as $349. I think its safe to say that our Note 4s are still the same price.

I'll wait until it is cheaper off contract than $700. Can't afford **** that expensive

The Verizon price has been changed back to $299 as it was originally. Part of this past week it was at $349 on the BB website.

What worst is that no more pre order for Verizon note 4 from BestBuy. I went to BB today and their system can't do pre order for Verizon N4 and so is the website, however, you still can preorder note4 with AT&T...

Maybe it's an error in their system?
Up to this day you have not been able to preorder via best buys website.

I preordered my Verizon note 4 (white) last Friday and my wife preordered her Verizon note 4 (also white) yesterday (Monday) without any issues. The phone is $299, $100 after trading in ANY working smart phone that isn't damaged (cracked screen, turns on, no water damage). There is NO minimum trade in value required unlike the Samsung promotion ($10 minimum value). They make you buy a $50 gift card as a "place holder" for the phone, you have 48 hours to pick up the phone after it arrives otherwise they will sell it to someone else. All gift cards purchased (the $50 place holder) and the $200 one you receive for trading in a phone, can all be used toward the purchase of the phone immediately.
I have spoke to the store manager, customer service, the Verizon and Samsung reps at the store. The customer service rep did say you need to bring in the charger for it, the others did not say that. I'm going to bring mine in either way. I also took their names down in case they try to pull a fast one. I suggest anyone else does the same so there are no surprises when the phone arrives.
Good luck

I'll put chargers in my car, but I'm not bringing them in unless they make noise about it. My store just said charged working phones without water or cracked screen damage.

Sprint Moto Z2 Force on sale $120

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!!!
