[Q] How is this price possible right now? - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Could someone explain to me how this person can sell this Nexus 10 16 GB right now? My girlfriend thinks she should get it but it seems suspicious. Are they just taking a loss?

sorry

Sorry I tried to post a link but the XDA rules forbid it cause I'm new. I forgot to paste the link the first time so this thread got started... Could I maybe get approval from mods to post links, I am not a spammer?

I would say. If it's too good to be true it probably is. For now, buy retail.

If you're from the USA then I would not suggest buying it from anywhere other than the Google Play Store since they are still in stock (16gb). You get warranty and any other perks for buying it from them.
Don't get scammed please. It happens too often during product launches!

The BOM isn't actually that high; tablets normally cost < $300. Google can buy it in bulk at say, $400 and sell it near-cost (in this example, they would take a slight loss for the 16GB but make up for it with the 32Gb), while the manufacturer makes $100 per unit. If N10 sells even 1 million (the same number as N7 sells per month), that's $100 million profit.
These numbers are just guesstimates.
In other words, bulk ordering and the nexus brand allows google to bid the manufacturer price down, while selling it to us near cost.
Edit: oh, you're talking about some random guy. He might not have it yet, or he might've been one of the lucky ones to get it early.

It was a n10 32 gb on eBay for 379. My gf was about to buy it but I told her to hold off cause its suspicious. 5 minutes after I started this thread the price changed to 479 and she almost strangled me!

Wtf Nexus one worth 270 dollars?

So, I just sold my baby to my mom because I am leaving for the Navy in January. I'm still using the phone until I leave, but I sold it for a cool 150. I thought it was a fair price. However, I just came across this site called buymytronics and their site says the phone is worth $270! I checked the price on both the HTC HD2 and the 16 GB Iphone 3G, both only fetch about 120 in flawless condition.
I know Nexus's(Nexi?) are sort of a collector's item now that they are discontinued and only around 130,000 sold in the US(Pcworld article is my source). I just thought it as kinda interesting that some random site is willing to pay 270 for a phone when others of similar spec and much more popular are going for less than half of that. I almost want to contact the people that the site and ask WTF is up with that.
Oh, well I guess we can all revile in the fact that we have the the phone with the best resale value on the market However, if you are looking to upgrade, that Nexus S looks pretty sick, now might be the time to sell it to this stupid site.
Btw, I know multiple people who have sold electronics on this site, so it's not some cheetos covered nerd in his basement BSing all of us.
Which version was it..T-Mobile or ATT? You can still get the Tmo version by being a developer I'm pretty sure. Not sure where you can still get a New N1 with ATT bands though. That may increase its value?
I had to hunt down my 3 N1s I recently got and spent around $350 each and thats considered a great price. Mine were in brand new condition, with no scratch or mark anywhere. 1 of them has some dust on the bottom of the screen. Ebay sellers with good feedback get $380+ on mint condition tmo n1s, $400+ for att versions.
I sold mine last week for $500 AUD ($502.25 USD) and was the T-mobile model.
Not bad considering I paid $600 AUD for it 6 months ago. They are holding their dollar value really well in Australia.
i bought mine off someone on CL locally about 3 weeks ago for 300 with the box and all accessories, it was in good condition but had been dropped once and has a few dings from the fall as well as a small scratch on the screen. it was a screaming deal for sure. most people want at least 350 if not more. most t-mobile ones on ebay sell for around 400 and broken ones will sell for anywhere from 100-200+ dollars (i know i bought and resold a broken one hoping to fix it but ended up finding the one i got now for 300)

It doesn't specify which carrier it is. It just pops up the HTC Google Nexus One. I tried searching for a T-Mobile Nexus One no luck same listing.

That's crazy. Mine is in mint condition. I have never dropped it on a hard surface; carpeted only and that was only a couple of times. I guess my mom got a killer deal. I told her she needs to take care of it. If Nexus phones keep value you never know I might make money off of it one day. I will probably buy it back from my mom once I get back from RTC because I will have a ton a money and nothing to do with it.
i just paid $400 on ebay for my att n1, mint condition with CM6.0 and root already loaded up... i considered that a great deal, since i had been seeing plenty of att n1's goin for $450-500.
these are great phones, and that guy got a steal even for a tmob version.
Never sell your nexus one. It was the beginning of an era. It belongs in a museum.

I am just wondering wht you would call it a "stupid site" seems to me it is a site that knows what it is doing!
haha this thread is pretty interesting. Idk how much my rooted running CM6 would cost. been dropped a few time and there is one small scratch on the bottom. overall it's great though. especially i take care of the screen even though the multi-touch is crappy as hell but just a small problem. I paid $30 for a piece of sticky plastic made by zigg to cover it. but all the deals you guys been saying would probably be half of my nexus two. only if the nexus two will rock my face like my baby N1 did. otherwise I'm keeping it.
oh yeah thumbs up for the Google Museum

The funny thing is it is a stupid site. They will pay me a whole 47 or something odd dollars for my mint condition Nook. I freaking paid 185 for that new. I paid 550 for my Nexus and they will give me half that. Roughly, they are willing to pay 20 percent more on the dollar for my Nexus than my Nook even though the Nook is in better shape and has less wear. Also, the suckers that out right bought an Iphone, or even signed a two year contract, get only 120 for their phone. I just wish I had more obscure tech than this site is willing to buy for top dollar.
I like the idea of a Google museum. I had a G1, one of my brother's friends has a Cliq, my old boss has a MT3G. Most of those are antiques by now. I say we start tomorrow lol

Hell, I needed the money. I sell all my old tech to my family. I figure I can keep tabs on my family's tech needs better if I already know how to run it all. I'm the only tech savvy one in a family of 12, so there is a lot to do. So, I cut operating costs, opps I meant time lol, by letting them use the stuff I already had fun with. My Zune 32 Gb is going to my dad, and my computer is going to my sister when I leave in January for the Navy. Now they can call me any where in the world and I will understand what the hell they are going through. Although I really wish they didn't. I'll probably running a nuclear reactor or something when my mom calls to whine about how the touch screen is going out of wack on my old phone.
Well does anyone have one that they want to sell cause I would like to buy

never sell! You can't even get the ATT version any more can you?
This is honestly the first phone I've EVER owned that is COMPLETELY scratch-less almost a year after purchase... that's taking absolutely NO special care of it either... I treat this thing like it's a set of car keys and FLAWLESS even today. That's the majority of the incentive for me hanging on to it for so long and not jumping to another phone... prior to this I was changing phones 3-4 times a year all 500+ a pop.

I could probably convince my mom to sell you mine. However, the price just went up 250 dollars. lol!
Wow, I got lucky and sold mine for a cool $560 two days ago. phew

buy it or to not buy it..??

Hi, how you doin guys? I was thinking to get a Nexus 7 but actually im not sure if it is good or not. I want you the people who have it to tell me about it in general. Do you encourage me to buy it? I want it for watching movies in the airplane and play games. what about the battery?
thank you
I already jumped the gun. I ordered mine yesterday I saw it at staples and was playing around with it. Really impressed with the smoothness and the layout and the colours. The hardware is something you can't turn down for the price. and on top of all that, it's google supported so you know this thing is gonna get key lime pie for sure!
This is an interesting question taht I wanted to know. How much did everyone pay for it in TOTAL. I paid around $380.
I got the 16gb, with a 1 yr warranty from staples and taxes, that's what it came out to. man we canada pay out the ass for this ****
With estimations of maybe 6 millions Nexus 7 to be sold this year, you can't be wrong
http://thedroidguy.com/2012/08/google-to-sell-6-to-8-milllion-nexus-7-tablets-by-the-end-of-2012/
We have 4 in our immediate family, and are overjoyed with them. They are all perfect.
Me and the missus bought "his and hers" Nexus7, for less than the price of a single iPad.
Battery life is great, due to the 5th "tickover" core, something the iPad4 is bound to copy..If you are going to be watching movies, get the 16GB one.
We bought 3, 8gbs from staples. All of them work great. Family loves them, we are most likely going to get a fourth so the grandparents don't fight over theirs lol.

You bought the warranty? It looked like blatant robbery to me.
Got mine at staples for like 260 total. Awesome purchase.

I have no regrets about getting mine, it's fantastic.
If I'd spent a while reading the threads on here beforehand I would never have done it though, so many complaints raised (which is always the way with the "General" forums on XDA-Dev) that would have put me off.

well from what I'm reading, there's been issues with : screen, speakers, lag on the home screen and so on.
So there is quite a bit of hardware issues. and this is the type of warranty i bought. If there is anything and absolutely anything wrong with my nexus 7, I can get a brand new one without hesitation. I bought it to be safe. I'd rather have peace of mind then be screwed over in the future.:good: either way I'm still happy with the purchase because I know I'm getting a quality device.

Will the N6 have sales and price drops like the Moto X?

Personally, I'm leaning toward yes on this question given the history of the Galaxy Nexus. However, I wanted to get the thoughts of others here on the forums. I really want to wait, but I'm finding it hard.

Well the gnex started at $649 and eventually went to $399 on the play store. The n4 and the n5 started even lower than that at $299 and $349 respectively. There is a big difference. I'm not saying you are wrong, just trying to get us to consider all the facts.

Nope, the same treatment will be needed for all previous Nexus, which Google ACTUALLY does, but not carrier-oriented procedure.
But taking in mind that the Nexus 5 will be the first on be more than a full year on the market, the drop of price will definitely go for it first than anything.
I doubt it will have price drops this year, i have been in contact with a supplier and he says its a premium price with those specs, motorola has been strict with specific details till november.

Google will NOT make it cheaper. Third party sellers is another thing
If specs are nothing in the android world, you my dear friend need to go get an iphone. Thats why people are crying because Note 4 nor S5 is 4gb of ram. Thats why people are crying cause G3 is 801 not 805. Thats why people are crying cause the huge Note 4 is not BIGGER or the z3 is not BIGGER.
Just because specs to you are nothing, does not mean how the rest of the android users feel
The op wait 6 months, he will find it else were cheaper, even on swapper cheaper...but he sure as well wont get it from google cheaper
Wait a couple of months. A lot of people with will use their $200 upgrade and flip the phone on EBay for $500 to $550. You can find a brand new LG G3 for $400 on EBay and that phone hasn't been out that long.

The fact that it has high end specs mean nothing when it comes to phone holding value over time. Google will never drop the price via the playstore but as the previous guy said, many users who will get it via contract subsidy for $200, will sell it for $550 new on ebay.

Wont that result in you buying a phone that is tied to someone else's contract and whatnot...?!
Ive never phone a phone from those circumstances so i would assume that to be the case and you would have to go and check to make sure its clean and ready to go. seems like a lot of time/work...but idk

There is a risk that the phone you buy is blacklisted. I normally check the person's feedback and look at their EBay rating. Most people that have a long history of selling stuff on EBay want be looking to scam you.

Best Buy $100 trade in program.

Looks like Best Buy is running the $100 trade in program again. I took advantage of this when I got my N9.... I wonder if they aren't selling well enough?
Even though they have this going on, none of the stores by me have any in stock and it's been that way for a while.
Best Buy has had the $100 trade in program since before Nexus 9 was released.

Anyone having trouble finding a White Nexus 9 in stock at their local Best buy?
There's like 10 Bestbuys within 30 miles of me and none have any white ones in stock. Neither the 16gb or 32gb.
The 16gb Black looks to be the most plentiful.

Yup, I went to BB the other day to trade my original N9 in and they had two 32gb black, zero white and about 20 16gb black.
I don't see white ones in stock at any BB in my area (Central Texas).
I did this a couple of weeks ago. I traded in my 8gb 2012 Nexus 7 (normally they would only give $10 for this), and was able to get a 32 gb Nexus 9.
I did run into an issue where the Nexus 9 wasn't in stock and the $50 coupon is for in-store use only. When they went to order it for me, their system wouldn't take the coupon and they told me coupon could only be used in the store. I reminded them that we were in the store having this conversation. The manager ended up "taking care of it", and knocked $50 off of the price.

ive read on the best buy forums there have been mixed results on doing this in store with random tablets because they are not in the system. i have read that people who complain on the best buy forum, and with an admin/ cs rep responding, will get success because apparently the rep is contacting the store directly to have them push the trade in through.
i love my launch day moto xoom but love the nexus 9 a bit more ..

I think they were a shady seller. It said to email them before purchasing in their description. I was almost tempted until I saw that.
I tried hard for the past few months not to purchase this phone. Yesterday I failed I made an impulse buy off swappa!

You won't regret it. I just came back from vacation. I only had my mate 9 and I didn't need to touch a PC once because I could do everything on it. Fantastic device.

It's going to be pretty hard to knock off my OnePlus 3t. I have it pretty dialed in and it's the fastest most energy efficient phone I've had by far. Same setup on my Nexus 6P and Note 5 have always got me an average SOT of 6-8. I thought that was really good...OnePlus averages 12 and Ive never seen it average under 10. I have hit 14 before a few times over a few loonngg boring 3 day weekends.
No mate 9 for me. My gut was right. The guy was a scam and swappa was extremely unhelpful. Took them forever to shut the guy down no matter how much evidence they had he was a scammer! Anyone know anyone who wants to do a story about how shady swappa is? I have so many screenshots and messages and saved web pages before they erased my messages. First and last time using swappa for sure

I've had nothing but great experiences on Swappa. Care to elaborate more? I mostly sell but I'm now extremely curious about your buying experience.

So the wrong phone arrived today it's the white one not the black one I ordered. Swappa wasted my time to verify everything with the numbers I provided. The help they gave me at the end was exactly the same as earlier. Contact PayPal! Thank you swappa what a great business. It shows me they are amateur and have no power to help anyone at all in any way other than tell people to contact PayPal. The last thing I want is a white phone OR to try and deal with PayPal again after the last 3 days of dealing with this.

That's extremely crappy. Swappa made a HUGE deal about me refunding the buyer of my old Note 7 despite the fact that he could have just swapped it out or tried to get a refund himself. They really need to get their act together and treat all cases the same. They should be the ones trying to make the seller do the right thing here...
