Best price for 288 RAM model?

I know that there is a place that has them for 599...but thats really high for a phone. SO, im wondering if there is a place that has it for less that will work with att as far as 3g goes and such....

I bought mine off of Ebay weekend before last for $440 with free shipping from canada (it's used). I just got it in yesterday and it is working fantastic with my at&t 3g.

Whats the buyer id so i can look and see if they have any more for sale?

[Q] Full Retail Price Fluctuation?

Hey guys, currently looking to sell my iPhone 5 and go back to Android and get an LG G2. Note, I'm on Verizon and will be paying full retail. I about bought one last weekend when it was $449 off contract from Verizon, but thought that price would stick and I could sell my phone first. I was wrong, and now it's $549. I noticed on Swappa most new ones are $450~ give or take, will it stay at this price or lower, or will it reflect the full retail now that the sale is over? Basically, do I have time to sell mine or should I act now? Also, do you think there will be any sales soon that have the G2 for a cheaper price off contract? Thanks!

Buying LG G2 From China?

I'm thinking of buying a brand new LG G2 32GB from China for £205 (£250 if it gets Tax), I was wondering as long as the model is D802 it will work in the UK fine is that correct?
Also has anyone here purchased the phone from China and have you had any issues be it with LTE/4G. From what I understand as long as its the D802 International version it will work fine in the UK.

I bought two G2s of 32 Gb from a site that was bringing products from China (valuebasket.com) Everything works great. Even the 4G. If the seller is serious go for it. D802 is working everywhere there's SIM and not CDMA possible.

I think I'm going to purchase this as soon as the Nexus 6 gets revealed, I can't see the Nexus 6 matching this in specs, battery and most importantly cost.
I've been reading these forums and I've decided when I get one I will install the G3 ROM and then the LG G2 will be perrect.
Cheers @BigBadSheep

Thinking about going this route myself. Does anyone know what the warranty from LG might be since this is most likely not a supported seller?
Thanks

Ah forget it, if I buy a used G2 it will cost more than a new G2 from China.
Also a used G2 on ebay from a UK seller will probs have no warrenty either or have very little left on it. So really thinking about it, the warrenty aspect is irrelevent for me.

Damn. You british people are having hard times. Here in Denmark I bought a 3 months old G2 32GB for 190 pounds, looking brand new with warranty, all the original accessories etc.
Buy one from here lol

Yeah typical British prices ... the Goverment here shaft the people from every direction. You work hard to earn money (no worries the goverment will tax that), you going on holiday (no worries the goverment will tax that), your buying a LG G2 (no worries the goverment will tax that lol), you've inheritted money (no worries the goverment will tax that), you buying petrol (no worries the goverment will tax that - I think you get the picture hahaha.
Anyways back on topic - Cheapest 2nd hand I have seen sold for was for about £230 no warrenty and was in good but not perfect condition. Better off just buying Brand new from China and potentially £20 cheaper or worse case £20 expensiver. Worth it if ya ask me haha.

Have a look on DigitalRev. They provide their own 1yr warranty and although I haven't needed to use it yet, the reviews elsewhere suggest they are pretty good when it comes to issues.
I just took delivery of a white 32gb model for £285 from them and am pleased with it so far. No import taxes or anything were applied...

I'm mainly thinking about cost tbh but yeah I could order from Sweden. The China deal is very good ... feel like just taking the risk with warrenty haha.

Nexus 6 $550 at Best Buy

Edit: I posted the below deal this morning but it was pointed out in the replies that an even steeper Nexus 6 discount was announced today (see Phandroid link below). The 32 GB Nexus 6 is now available for $500 from Best Buy and also the Google Store (64 GB for $550).
I wish to highlight a Nexus 6 deal which I could not find listed anywhere else on XDA Dev or by Google search. The unlocked Nexus 6 is available for $550 at Best Buy. To obtain it at this price, one simply needs to ask in store for the unlocked Nexus 6 and then ask for a price match against T-mobile's online store, where the phone is currently on sale for $549.84. I also called Best Buy customer service and was informed by a representative that this price match should apply in all stores and to any purchases made from the Best Buy online store.
I can confirm this approach can work, since I was able to obtain a Nexus 6 for $549.84 in store from a Best Buy store this last weekend. However, I also found a Best Buy forum post where it was claimed that the price match was initially not honored (unfortunately I cannot include the link since I am a new member). Therefore, the ease of this approach may vary according to the representative one encounters.
As an additional note, T-mobile starter kits, which include a nano SIM, are currently on sale at Best Buy for $5. Thus one can set up an unlocked Nexus 6 on T mobile for ~$555 plus tax.
I apologize if I posted this thread in the wrong place or duplicated a pre existing thread. I will monitor the thread and delete/repost if necessary.

Is there any advantage (Other than the price right now) to buying the unlocked version -vs- the carrier specific one?

The ATT and Verizon are locked to their respective carrier. However once you have them paid off for the device you can get it unloved to work on other carriers.
The hard was is all the same.

Thanks. I'm thinking of getting one but I currently have the Note 3 on ATT and they use diff sim cards. I was going to simply pop mine in. Seems like I have to get a nano sim and add another line. I hate that the carriers have us by the sacs.

If you get one you don't have to add a line just have AT&T switch Sims and phone.
You would have to buy out right. With the T-Mobile $100 off deal is a great way to save some money. Best Buy will match the price.

Also Best Buy is selling the 64gb version for $550 not the 32gb Verizon and AT&T sells.
No need for price match anymore.

Thanks, I just saw that too! Google says that TMO doesn't price match, but I'm still in my 14 day window for the one I bought from them. Has anyone had any luck getting them to price match, or at least allow a return without their restocking fee?

Just returned mine back to BB and bought new saved another $50 bucks and ended up buying a 60'' LED for $450

Upgrade from S2 to S5?

EDIT: Damn, meant to post this in the Tmobile S5 section.
Hi,
I'm on an S2 T989 w/ CM rom on tmobile prepaid for close to 4 years now and I'm feeling an upgrade. My criteria are: New phone (or equivalent), $300 max, removable battery, SD card expansion, OLED screen, tmobile prepaid compatible, root and custom ROM available.
This limits my options and it seems the S5 is the best choice. I'm not really willing to compromise on any of those features. I don't mind having an older phone, obviously, it will still be a huge upgrade coming from the S2.
Is the G900T the model I want? I see stuff about locked bootloader. Also the Verizon variant reportedly works with tmobile, but maybe not on all 4G bands, is there any benefit vs the G900T?
I bought this S2 from Walmart for prepaid plan on a sale for $300. Walmart has the S5 available for $350, but I see this phone on ebay "new" at $250 and swappa "mint" at $200. As I've never purchased anything but a retail phone, what should I look out for? The ebay ones all say new but open box (so they can unlock, supposedly). I'm afraid they're just putting in refurbs or something. I saw one seller claim they're overstock contract phones and they guaranteed a clean IMEI, is this a safe route? I'm not sure if it would have manufacturer warranty, either, but saving $100 over walmart is tempting. At least I can do my own repair to an extent, I replaced my S2 screen and other parts over the years.
Can an unlocked contract phone be used with tmobile prepaid? I see no reason why not, but one ebay seller said they don't guarantee prepaid compatibility.
Anyone want to dissuade me from this path?
Thanks for any help. Sorry if I'm not breaking any rules here
