How much to sell used Pixel XL?

I'm selling my used 32 GB Pixel XL (Google edition) on Swappa. It's got regular wear and a tiny scratch on the screen. I'm not selling it here, just wondering how much would be good to list it for? I'm selling it with the Spigen Case I have.

Idk? Try searching Swappa for how much others are selling theirs for, and adjust from there depending on how fast you want to sell it?

Sorry. New to Swappa. Thanks.

The most recently sold "Good" condition, silver 32GB Pixel XL sold on Swappa for $620. That included a Daydream VR unit, fwiw.

Haha. I'm including a Daydream Headset too. Maybe I'll try that price.

LG V30 UK launch

Just seen today, those of us waiting in the UK for the V30, carphone warehouse has claimed exclusivity on the new device!
Coming in at a whopping (UK drew the short straw price) £800! #still cheap than an iPhone X.
Shipping estimated at the 1st of November!
Fyi

Did they forget to do a currency conversion? $800 is about £600

That's actually cheap considering the USA has to pay taxes and yours are included.

That's what Apple always did, even when the ratio was 2-1.

Always been a Nexus fan, skipped the Pixel as at the time my 6P was enough for me needs, If the Pixel 2 leaks are true I was going to go with the V30, now I've seen the price think ill get a S8 or Oneplus 5

You are forgetting the asking "price" is not THE real "street" price AFTER launch. LG phones drop in price considerably a month or two after launch. Go look on eBay or Amazon and see what a new 32GB LG G6 is going for now?
This one is the European carrier unlocked model, which also qualifies for bootloader unlock:
NEW LG G6 H870 4GB 32GB ASTRO BLACK 13MP EUROPE MODEL ANDROID 7.0 4G SMARTPHONE (£388.99)
Yet, back in June it was £649. SEE? £260 DROP in price in 4 months.
http://www.techradar.com/reviews/lg-g6
June 09, 2017:
The LG G6 has an eye-watering £649 SIM free RRP in the UK, which is astronomical given we're used to seeing phones from this brand come in at almost half that cost after a few months of being on sale.

Sure enough, it's now almost half the cost since beginning of summer.
I'm going to wait for the carrier unlocked version (mid-November) and then I'm going to wait until the carrier unlocked version is listed on LG's official bootloader unlock list (probably end of December).
By then, hey the price will have dropped dramatically, I predict.

even after 2-3 months from 800 pounds to 600 its still fking BS. it's already 600 in the US.... it will be cheaper right now to use a freight forwarder in the US and send it here at 650GPB including shipping and tax @ your front door!!!! better yet, got a mate in the US the shipping will drop from 50GPB to like 20GPB!

Has the dual-SIM version been scrapped?

Pre-ordered mine from Mobiles.co.uk on O2. 3gb data unlimited texts and minutes. £29 per month and £150 up front. Used code vc15off to make that £135 up front.
Coming from a Nexus 6p. Have liked stock android but not impressed with the Pixel 2 XL decision to not have a 3.5mm headphone jack. Plus it looks too damned huge.
Short list was;
- Sony XZ Premium - camera distortion issues put me off
- Samsung Note 8 - Size, weight, poor audio output
- Nokia 8 - Lack of cases, screen protectors
Waiting for the 1st November.

Verizon trade-in...

So when I pre-ordered my Pixel 2 XL, the site told me my Nexus 6 was worth $0 as a trade-in. Anyone else have this happen to them? Is there any way to negotiate this?

Maybe they got flooded with them and cut trade ins of them off?
I have 6p and they're giving me 150 bucks for it.

if its through VZW, they are of no real value to them.
Even through the google store itself, max is $80 for the 64GB version $70 for 32GB.
They are going for twice that price on swappa, much better off selling it yourself.

Excellent, thanks for the info!

Fantastic. The OP however has a Nexus 6, not a 6P.

I got one even better. 2 months ago I got the ASUS ZenFone AR... Still in new condition... Verizon will only give $50 for trade in LOL... Verizon is a joke...

I'd say 90% of the time you are better off on swappa then trading it into VZW. Although, I got $280 for my Note 4 a few weeks ago.

It came to $749 plus tax from the Google store. Amazon shows slightly higher but there are refurbs cheaper and are most likely bootloader locked (no root). Honestly I do not trust Amazon sellers all that much and you probably won't get a two year warranty like Google. I fixed the screenshot in my previous post.

You need to be very sure where he got it from if rooting and unlocking are important to you. If it was any where other than the Google store you won't be able to do that.

Thanks, I will try to check... The phone should be unlocked as it will be used outside of the US... why would rooting be important?

If the phone was purchased on BF then it will be bootloader locked since it was from Verizon. Google didn't have a BF deal. But you might be confusing bl unlock with carrier unlock. You might want to check that. Rooting is only important if you want to modify the device from stock.

It's only important if you want to root it. Let me be more clear. It is SIM unlocked, they all are no matter where they come from.
I was speaking of bootloader unlocking, which is needed only for rooting and modifying. If that isn't important to you, you are all set no matter where it came from.

I just got my pixel 2xl off eBay for $465. It is pretty and fast and a great deal.

Wow that's low. That's with the Labor Day discount going on right?

Tonik, your distinction between bootloader/sim unlock is super helpful to me. It's essential I have a rootable phone, I use my smartphone as my primary internet connection at home with my grandfathered unlimited plan.
Is there a particular model number of Pixel 2 that I should be looking for (in the used market) that would designate is as having come from Google as opposed to one of the carriers? When I rooted my Galaxy S6 (model G920P, which I believe pegs it to Sprint) 3 years ago, I realized too late that there were only very few custom roms for my specific device, and this was terribly disappointing after having come from a Sprint Nexus phone using the glorious Dirty Unicorns rom.

Unfortunately the model numbers are the same. Imei will tell you but the seller isn't going to give you that. Or you can get a pick of developer options from the seller. There is a slider that allows oem unlock. It needs to be blue.

does any website still selling Mate 20 X - 8/256G 4G version... ??

does any website still selling Mate 20 X - 8/256G 4G version... ??
please let me know the link...

Networks here in the UK only have the 5G model in stock.
The 4G can be found on eBay but most are pre-owned. The few brand new ones are very expensive, they cost more than the 5G model. I spent a long time looking for a reasonably priced new 4G but couldn't find one.
I've just received my 5G yesterday and I'm really pleased with it so far.

thank you, maybe 5G version is the last hope... if 4G isn't available anymore.. I am not satisfied with Aliexpress... could see lots of complaints and the Vendor is not responding to messages.
let me dig eBay for some time if the vendor responds... I will try to salvage any new item left out there...

@SivasankarC
You're welcome, I hope you have success getting a good deal on the model you settle on. What country are you in?
Mine is the 8 / 256GB 5G version, that's the only model the UK networks have now, the 4G is a much earlier release.
I did a lot of researching over the last few weeks trying to get the 4G, but of the few brand new ones I saw the cash price was way too high.
There's no way I'd invest a big chunk of my cash in a phone from outside the UK, if there were any subsequent faults I'd imagine I'd be pretty much screwed regarding the vendor sorting it out. So I never bothered looking at Aliexpress or international sellers on eBay. You saying the vendor isn't replying to your messages is a typical scenario I'd rather not be in.
Initially I preferred the 4G above the 5G, mostly because of the larger battery, but I believe the smaller 4200mAh should still see me through a typical day's use.
And whatever model you get I'm sure you will be impressed with the big screen, it really is awesome!

I'm in exactly same situation. Really want the 4g version but can't find it anywhere. Except eBay used items. I should have bought it on Amazon when I had the chance 6 months ago....ahhh.

the only what i found Available Soon

Whats wrong with used?

Thanks for the feedback guys. I am not very keen on used. Simply because I would rather a new device with 100 percent battery health. I plan on using this one long term. At least 2 years.
I have bitten the bullet and ordered one from a third party Amazon seller. Looks new. Got it for £499. Looks like it was the last one too as no more available now. Should be with me in few days. Can't wait!

Huawei discontinued the 4G model long time ago around time the 5G model released.
I really love this 4G model and want to get another one as backup.

If huawei released the 4g model in 2018 then a 5g model in 2019 hopefully theyll release an updated version for 2021, fingers crossed. Its possible that the black shark 3 pro is enuf to attract the attention of huawei to compel it to make a 2021 model as an answer to that competition with same screen proportions as its previous models. Again fingers crossed.

Just got my brand new 4g model today. Factory sealed. Very impressed so far. Typing this on my new 20x! It is a monster. Two handed phone for sure. Gonna be putting it through its paces next few days.
