A trade for a slightly used Magician

I bought the I-Mate JAM for my wife a few months ago thinking I could teach her all the cool things it can do like my PDA2K but she still doesn't like it. I was thinking about posting it on ebay, but wanted to give everyone here a chance to make me an offer before I posted it. Is anyone willing to make a reasonable trade or offer for it? She really likes the new RAZR's so I am open for a few days then its off to ebay for it.
post an offer here or email me [email protected].
I will post pics later today as it does have one or two scratches.
Here is a pic
A scratch on the display is a no-go for me. If she doesnt even want it, why couldn't she use a screen protector the time being? I have one on it and are using it.
I sent it to here while I was away and she didn't know how to put it on. The scratch isn't that big either, the flash on the camera kind of makes it look alot bigger.
$200
I'd be interested to know what you get on ebay for it.
I'll be putting mine on there at some point soon With a 1gb SD card, Spectec WiFi card and DeskDock. Not sure how much to expect though. :S
My wife has a RAZR and aside from being thin an light she is quite disappointed with it. As always no other phone can beat the user-friendlyness and features of a Nokia.
I am sure my wife will be disappointed with it also. No offense to women, but with cell phones its always what's new and small.
The cons are as follows:
- wake up alarm wont work if the phone is off.
- fonts are too small (for bad eyes).
- though one could input various numbers for one contact, when viewing, it displays each number as one individual entry.
- the phone's battery can only be charged via the supplied adapter and/or the usb cable (but only when connected to a PC). it does not work with my universal usb charger which i use for my s100 and bt800.
- assigned sms tone does not work if an international sms is received.
i wonder how the motoQ will be like in practice.
How do you manage to scratch the screen like that?! I had my phone for 4 months before my screen protectors finally came in the mail (expansys.com.au being slow, long story). I used the phone all day every day, let my girlfriend at the time use it and my dad and it doesn't have a mark on the screen!
Did she accidentally use a pen instead of stylus or something?
As I said before its not as big as it looks, the flash made it look bigger. But the scratch was from her nail when she was getting them done and tried to click on something.
Fair enough. I could imagine if you're looking straight down at it you'd barely notice. Still, unlucky!
My guess at a value would be slightly over half the standard retail price. I reckon I'd pay that. In Australia Jams sell for AU$900 roughly, I'd give you $500 but I have no money!
Ebay Australia has some in "as new" condition going for AU$600.
Hi , I will buy it for 200 USD. Agreed ?
rexxxx,
Common man Jimmy-Bish just offered me 377.191......
I was really hoping to get a trade w/some $$ becuase I will have to replace the phone as soon as I sell/trade this one.
Alfred, what's my new price (AU$900) compared to the US price? I put in that theoretical offer based on the Australian market at the moment.
(Oh, and it wasn't a rock solid offer. like I said, I have no money... sorry!).
Jimmy-Bish I was comparing it to the 500 you said, I know your not interested but that is a more reasonable offer.
ILL TAKE IT????
IF you'd sell it for AUD$400 including post ill take it it dose come with all chargers and stylus and box and wat-not dosent it?

nottodaynicko2005
are you still interested? sorry i haven't checked this post in a while and i never posted the jam on ebay either. i got caught up in the BlueAngel release of WM5.0 I personally have the PDA2K.

selling my tytn... cheap

well folks.. i started with the 8125 and moved my way up to the tytn.. however upon entering my new job I've come to realize I would be better off with a blackberry (ive decided on the new 3g capable one)... I was going to sell it on ebay but if anyone on here wants or knows someone who wants one get in touch with me.. I know how much they cost and what they sell for... in all honesty I would rather have someone offer to buy it now at a lower price so I can just get the blackberry quicker...i wil hard reset the phone back to original tytn settings.. only flaws on the phone are some minor scratches (pictures available).. have had a screen protector on it since day 1... PM me to make an offer.... (SORRY IF THIS IS AGAINST FORUM RULES!! xoxo)
Why not save money and use the much better tytn as a blackberry on your corporate BES?

Want to buy good condition Wizard

My beloved MDA dropped today...it still works, BUT, the usb port is loose, and Assurion doesn't have any to swap out under insurance...they offered me the Wing (gag me!). I am seeking a working Wizard with a solid usb port...locked or unlocked (hello lokiwiz)...
I will not respond to "you can have mine for $300"...I can get one on ebay for $160 or less.
If you have moved on and want to part with your WORKING Wizard, please contact me.
"you can have mine for $300"
Thanks.
You know, my mama always said::
"EVERYONE LIKES A LITTLE ASS, NO ONE LIKES A SMART ASS"
I'm serious. I am willing to pay the $110 insurance would charge me, up to about $160-ish, which is what I have found as the asking price on ebay
...if anyone has an old, but WORKING, Wizard, and you have upgraded to a new device and don't know what to do with the Wizard, please contact me. If the condition is good and your price fair, I would be very interested in getting it.
Thanks.
Y not take Wing?
It is the same thing as MDA but just thiner. Oh well - tastes are different, although I have Like New MDA that I am using currently and not really want to move on cuz it works for me at this moment. If it happens I hear from some1 that wants to sell, I'll pass that onto you.
Anyway - I wouldn't recommend eBay to anyone when it comes to buying MDA. Friend of mine bought 1 - supposedly refurbished perfect cosmetic condition and received BEATER!!! Scratches all over the phone, screen damage, opens on its own - I mean he was looking to get the deal and got bad beater phone. Later on he got brand new Wing from Tmobile.
MDA story was completed by seller not responding to his e-mails and he filled with paypal a dispute so he got the money back and never sent the phone back to the seller. He sold the phone as is on the ebay for 170$ ... with all the explanations and everything...
I bought mine on ebay and is LIKE NEW (Or even new!)
It depends on who you buy the products.. There are many sellers and many are legit!
If you havent bought yet dont say that...
pm'd with offer
If you go through eBay, just avoid "rob3474." I got a Qtek 9100 from him that was supposed to be "like new." Suffice to say, it has a lot of wear and needed some attention before it would function semi-properly. Still having some issues with it a month later...
I sent you a pm with an offer
Still looking...
I have not been very active since having surgery. I got some great PM's but a couple fell through, so...
I am still seeking a working, reasonably priced Wizard-preferably a G3. My main concern is not with cosmetics, I just need a well working Wizard with a very SOLID usb port.
I have been quite busy with doctor appointments and physical therapy, so please be patient with me, I will respond to PM's.
I am thinking about upgrading shortly, I have a fully unlocked G3 Wizard. Will let you know if I do decide to upgrade. It has typical scratches on the body, usb is solid and it works great.

Well I had a potential sale fall through, so I am again back looking for a good condition (solid usb port, gently handled) Wizard. Preferably a G3. I am willing to go as high as $150 with shipping, and will pay with Money Order or Visa Gift Card, or if you bank with Wells Fargo, a direct money transfer. I will NOT send cash (I do not trust the USPS and want to have a recourse if the payment is lost in the mail), and I cannot use Paypal because my account is frozen due to some supposed fraudulent activity (I suspect someone tried to hack my account). If you have an MDA in good condition and want to sell, please PM me.
Thanks.
Ill trade you my MDA for the wing that you are going to receve.
It is in good shape. (although I have to be honest I dropped it once or twice)
It was mostly held in it's case untill I lost it. then I bought a black plastic cover/skin for it. It doesn't look like I just bought it. The plastic cover I bought for 10 buck makes it look like it.
I could use an upgrade, but I'm not due untill september.
I love my wizard. it is very durable, and well worth the cost; so I won't be upset or offended if you don't take the offer
I hope you find what you are looking for. if not PM me

Ugh, killed my HD2 :(

I know this probably isn't the place for this, but I definitely need a place to vent where people can understand the frustration lol.
Yesterday I accidentally killed my HD2. The story goes as follows
I decided to clean my room and be productive for once, my phone was securely placed on my desk. I moved a glass of lemonade from the desk onto the floor so it would be out of the way so I could clean better.
So I started moving some things around on the desk, and next thing I know I see my HD2 falling like in slow motion. It landed in the glass of lemonade so I quickly fished it out. Both the water damage mark on the phone and battery were gone, so there goes my warranty call, and insurance was out of the question since T-Mobile's insurance only covers 2 insurance claims in a 12 month period regardless of which phone.
I had made a claim in June of 09 on a Sidekick LX I had damaged, and recently in May for losing my HD2. So they dropped me from the insurance making it impossible to make a claim.
So I left the phone out to dry and took the battery, sim, and sd card out it never turned off when it went into the lemonade, but the buttons became stuck on. More specifically the Volume up button became stuck on even if I pressed volume down.
So after letting it dry and blowing out every hole with compressed air it still wouldn't become unstuck, so I tried the one thing I knew would work. Electrical contact cleaner... Bad move on my part, that started to dissolve the plastic parts on the phone thus killing it completely.
Now I have no phone and can't justify spending another $400-$500 on a phone since I just bought that not 3 months ago for $450(I buy all my phones off contract)
I am very angry about what happened although I can only be angry at myself because of it... So anyone have any stories like this they'd like to share?
EDIT: Yay! 100th post!
Man that sucks, I watch over my HD2 like a hawk and have it with me all the time, either that or I will leave it in the middle of a table and far away from the sides.
Also what's this watermark thing you speak of?
Wow chaos, that sux big time, sorry to hear that! (yes, it was kinda painful just to read that!)
The only ray of sunshine I can offer is the fact that it's much easier now (following tmo's father day promo) to find new and near-new HD2's on the open market for less than they were before...in fact, there's at least one member here (atxdrift) who's selling his (only slightly used) one for $350. So, you might be able to find an acceptable one for a bit less than you expected. I know it's not the best answer, but there might be hope for you yet
sounds almost like a modern day comedy slapstick sketch,. , the day just getting worse and worse.
House contents insurance?

small white dot, look top left of the battery.
I wish I had renters insurance, what's most likely going to happen is I'm going to have to spend a month with a cheap pre-paid phone until I can get the money to buy a new phone.
I have a hard time trying to justify spending another $250-$300 on even a used HD2 since it is still the same phone, so chances are I might be leaving the HD2 community unless I find a really good deal.
I'm gonna hold out until the T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S comes out and give that a shot, so it's going to be a very long month lol. I've always had a smart phone, so it's gonna be weird going without one for a while.
1st try soaking it in clean fresh water then opening it up and drying it out. See if the suger is gewwing up the buttons. As long as no power is on or in the phone it shouldn't damage it. About a new HD2. Don't worry about it. I see them for same 2 weeks old on CL in mint condition for $225 - $250 almost everyday. I always go that route because even if the phone breaks I can still buy another for cheaper then buying it new with insurance. Since you already own the SD card you could proably sell yours for $30 or $40 and get the price under $200. Plus a digi/LCD combo is $150 so you can recover that too. So think about parting it out too. Once you part it all out, sell the sd card, and get a deal on CL your gonna probably make a couple dollars or pay like $50 for a new HD2.
I'm currently selling these two phones on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200489717491&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT
If you are interested in either let me know and I can probably give you a discount on the auction if you win it. I can't give it away but I don't mind just covering my costs.
if you always buy your phones out of contract, why not just bite the bullet and renew???
I bought my HD2 this week on ebay for $330 flat, brand new condition and everything included but the SD card (had my own anyway)... I'm sure there are similar deals out there and probably better, a lot of people were disappointed with HD2's software (lol guess they didn't know what Windows Phone was all about) and want to get rid of it for an Android device, so keep an eye out for those deals. Some people really don't know what they've got. Sorry that happened to you, I was really bummed when I dropped my TP2 and the speakerphone jacked up. But I made the call anyway and they replaced it with a brand new one for free, so now I have a new HD2 and a new TouchPro2 as a backup. My suggestion is always try to keep a nice backup so that you're not completely devastated if the inevitable happens... But every time I drop mine or have to pay or make a call I learn a lesson, lol... Take it as a learning experience.
There going for 250 on craigslist
I got mine off CL with a total of 5 hours of use in mint condition. Guy was asking for $300 for phone alone at 2am. I texted him offering a trade and cash and he said cash only. So jokingly I said well if its in mint condition, you have the box, the SD card that still has the transformers on it, the charger, the case, and headphones, I'll give you $250. He texted back 5 minutes later saying "When can we meet?" Turns out the new Iphone was $300 with a new contract and he said he could come up with the extra $50. So I met him and got it and sure enough it was mint with not a spec on it. I bought it and turned out his girlfriend was there selling hers for the same price for another iphone. Unfortunately I didn't have another $250 on me and they sold it an hour later. The fact is the HD2 while being the nicest phone around is just too much phone for many people, they don't understand you have to install apps by cabs, they don't get the 10 years of upgrades and mods we have. So they just want to get some money back out of it and get an iphone or android. Most are listed from $285-$400. But most will take around $250 cash. All the ones you see for $300 keep getting posted over and over, just offer them some cash and they will bite. I would avoid posting offering $250 for one because you will probably have someone with a stolen one or messed up one try to sell you one. Just email each seller with an offer.
I know that I shouldn't laugh, but this reminds me of the time that my buddy used Goof Off to clean a stain on his sink not realizing that it was made of a plasticky material! He cursed himself for mucking up the plastic and then read the warning on the can that we are ALL too familiar with... "Please test product in a discreet location first to make sure that product does not damage XYZ" (<- Obviously paraphrasing)
My friend spilled soda on his crt monitor and it still worked. I can't see why it won't work after you clean it out and dry it. Then again I can't see why the lemonade glass didn't get knocked over.

[21 Dec] [Q] Selling my Beloved HD2. Head start here :)

Hello Guys
I am a very very happy owner of this amazing device, the allmighty HD2. As one of the early adopters I really know the true value of this beast, ahem, baby
Recently i've decided to sell this device as I need the cash for upgrading to a samsung nexus. I thought I would have enough cash to upgrade without sacrificing this device (i even had plans for putting it in a glass showcase and keep it in my living room ) bcoz i've taken care of it as if it was a part of me
It really looks like new after 2something years...
Anyways, I thought that I wanted to give you guys a shot before i put it on ebay, if someone is interested to buy this phone because i believe that only people in this community can really appreciate this device and its specs, history and future.
I intend to put it on ebay after xmas if nobody is interested here but because i have love thing for this device i would prefer to know it falls into good hands and not some kiddo that cant afford an idevice
The screen is new without a single mark, spotless and i have a ton of accessories to give to its new owner...
I will provide tons of pics later on if there is some interest about this.
If you got any questions just shoot!
How much are you planning in selling it for
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium
Hi!
I'm interested! My own was recently lost/stolen and I think no other device will be good enough for me
I can asure your beloved HD2 will be in good hands Can you show some pics? How much will it cost including shipping costs? (I'm from Portugal)
Thanks!
I hope your talking about a galaxy nexus... lol just saying and I think there's a section here for this kind of thing
Hi guys, thanks for the interest.
The phone in ebay ranges from £100ish up to £200+ for perfect condition.
Mine comes with accessories though. 2 extra batteries, one genuine htc and another extended battery plus the one that's on the phone
Desk dock for the phone that charges a second battery, 3 silicone gel cases in various colours, a wall charger for the spare battery, it also has a vinyl skin applied to it. Plus its box and accessories that came with it the only thing I've lost is its original pouch.
I think for all the above a price of €200 / £165 is a fair price.
I will post pics of everything as soon as I get home coz I'm at work now...
One requirement only : the transaction will happen through ebay and paypal so we can both have a peace of mind. Upon agreement here, I will post it on ebay with a ridiculous price and then you can make an offer which I will accept of course
Also will post fully recorded / insured around Europe for €10
Sent from my HD2 using Tapatalk
So, we're talking about 210€ including shipping costs, right? Won't you make it 200€? Or maybe could you sell it without accessories for a lower price? The one thing that I would really appreciate is the pouch, because that's the only thing that was lost/stolen with my HD2... Either way, if the device is in good condition I'm interested, please tell me what you are willing to do and show some pics!
Also: I'm supposing we're talking about an european device (given that you have a flag from Greece).
Oh, another thing I remembered: does it come with an SD card?

Its the European Edition bought originally from UK. Bought it sim-free so it was completely unlocked and unbranded (not that it matters now in android world, just saying )
I will provide an 8gig class 4 microsd which is already in the device and if i remember it right, there should be another one 2gig which came with the phone, which should still be in its box, but i will let you know for sure later tonight with the pics.
I will gather all accessories and make some pics tonight from home, its my lunch break now so not enough time for this
sorry for the late update, its a really busy period at work these days...
i managed to get some pics of the accessories which you can find in this picasa album here: htc hd2
please note that the desk dock supports 2nd battery charging and it also has a 3.5mm plug so you can use the phone for playing back music in a pair of desk speakers with 3.5mm input, for example pc speakers. i didnt like that so i opened the dock (just 4 ordinary screws) and pulled this 3.5mm inwards in the casing. of course if you like it its very easy to pull it back out again. The headphones which can be seen in their case there have been opened and used twice, because i have another pair from my desire that i use daily and at some point i thought i lost it, opened this one, two days later found the desire one and its been in its case since then. whoever gets he phone will confirm this, the headphones do look unused.
pics of the actual device will be uploaded first thing in the morning in the same folder (with the same link) and i will update my post here as well
As promised, multiple pics of the device can now be found on the same picasa folder i linked above...
same link here if you are too lazy to look above Da Album Link

Trust me i know what this phone is capable of... believe me its a very hard decision to sell it. If i had enough money i would never sell it
even if development dies in a couple of years still its one of the most historic devices ever created, if not THE most historic...
Allright, the device seems to be in good condition. Just 2 questions:
- It's got a screen protector applied to it, right? Is it easy to remove? Not that I don't recognize that it's important, but I might not like to see it live
- The skin in the background: is it easy to remove (leaving no bits or glue)? Once again, I might not like to see it live like that
Also tell me your thoughts about selling the device by itself only.
The screen protector is very easy to remove, i have changed many protectors and same quality as this one (the phone has never been without screen protector).
The vinyl in the back should be removed without leaving residues of any kind. Its the first i have applied and i havent removed one yet to know for sure, but its advertised as "easily removed without leaving any glue residues". Its made by Gelaskins.
Finally i dont want to sell the phone by itself as the rest of accessories have no use for me afterwards and i selling them by themselves one by one have no real value in ebay...
so its sold with everything pictured
Ok, I think everything's clear and fine concerning the device. Concerning the rest, that's what I was thinking, but it didn't harm to ask
So, what's next?
Goodmorning and Merry Xmas
I believe that the safest way for both of us, is ebay, especially for you with the buyer protection act. So i will post it there with a ridiculus price of buy it now something like £500 and i will leave the "make offer" option open. I will PM you the link of my listing and you can go there and make me an offer of 200€ which of course i will accept
I will backup my stuff and take it out of the device as i'm still using it, factory reset it and pack it so it will be ready for the post office as soon as the ebay transaction is cleared.
PS: right now I'm with Hyperdroid's CM7 rom with dorimatrix kernel do you need another rom flashed or should i just reset to factory defaults and leave the rest to you?
Good morning, Merry Christmas!!!
OK, I'll be checking my inbox for the link. As for the ROM, you can leave it like that, I like to flash and try new ROMs anyways
