HAHAH $500 dollars for a used 8525 - Off-topic

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300167618628
thats such a great price!!!!! I want 10 of them!!! That phone is soooooo modded and cool

overpriced and overembellished with with modding, but it isnt that overpriced. 250-300 for the phone and the 6gb card does go for almost 75.

that rom... looks kinda familiar
hmmmm
and hes doing wm6 upgrades for 125 usd... what a rip off, when i purchased my tytn off ebay[.co.uk] the first thing i did was search google for tytn wm6, and i came to here, and been here ever since. That guy really has a cheek sellin free stuff for 125 usd....
if only we knew who he was here.....

well nobody is forced to give him money... if someone's dumb enough to pay that much, it's not his fault. people should always get information about what they want to purchase before buying.

This thread is related to Development and Hacking????
Maybe some moderator can erase this, or change to the right section.

done

Maybe I should send him $125 and my 6700 w/WM6 "TO DO THE MODIFICATIONS" lol Maybe not.

I thought I put this in off topic???

JK well I do want to try it before its banned.

I sold mine for $410 without a memory card. He is including a 6gb memory card so I would assume that would be the difference between my selling price and his asking price. The phone is only what you value it at, someone is willing to pay for it, not everyone knows how to modify a phone.

Tilt will cost $299 with a 2-year contract!

Well, according to this article, Tilt will cost $299 with a 2-year contract and $375 with a one-year contract. Btw, the release date mentioned in the article is October 1st.
Link: http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/09/11/tilt-duo-inferno-and-q9h-to-blow-out-atandts-october/
Finally and it is good to here that it will be reasonable priced which will make the device open to more users...thus it will be hacked sooner. We need cooked ROMs casue you know ATT will **** up the OS. First thing we will need to hack the PTT button since ATT PTT is retarded and its one more button that can be useful.

No offense but I think Ill go buy one online if I see another frickin post like this. Not directed at you sherpa, just venting a bit. I am just tired of hearing things like "supposedly" and "we heard" or "rumored" I have had a few sources tell me that it will be this month....PERIOD.... I just want to see a date posted on the site saying it will be released on.... I personally dont care if its 3 ****ing years from now as long as they can just say it rather than the cause the whole guessing game.
O.k. now that I have vented, I'll say that I hope this info is wrong on the October part because I am an impatient child and hope its right on the $299 part

Dude, I feel the same way too. I get frustrated hearing all these rumor dates but at the same time get excited. Just like you, I would rather hear a firm date from AT&T (be it three years from now) but it would at least make me constantly visiting different sites all the time. Now, I also hope info posted on the link above is wrong (the date part, that is) and hope the date is something earlier than that.

I dunno wp...At 299...something has to be missing..and it's gotta be more then the video call camera...why would the Tilt with more features then the 8525 cost less??? I'm very leery about this...btw wp..haven't seen u on HOFO in a while..
well after seeing another date come and go that it was suppost to go live on I just went ahead and ordered mine online. Better to have it then have to deal with the waiting and then if they end up screwing it hard well...

The low price can be justified because of iPhone's price slashes! AT&T is thinking of the whole market and not just of us hardcore users. Majority of the market will compare iPhone and Tilt side-by-side, and with iPhone's bigger screen, brand recognition, built-in memory, and popularity, people will go for the iPhone. So, if AT&T prices both reasonably, Tilt will sell well.

I created a cab file for the Blackjack to auto install overclocking and it works but he was the only one to have a problem. Two forums I posted the cab and he was the only one to need a HR. He *****ed that he lost all his contacts and they were so important. I flamed him cause he tried to blame me for his error and for him not backing up his device.

Either AT&T has been court ordered to donate to charity, or they have severely crippled the Kaiser. I refuse to believe that $299 price point...

I am very surprised, I would of thought $399 and they drop the 8525 to $249. But I like charity
yea that 299 price point does not seem correct being the 8525 cost more. Also the 8925 is suppost to be a flagship type phone for them for highend users and lower end peps then have the Icrap, or the pantach 810 also the blackjack still and a handfull of other pda type phones.
No way it's 299.
and 200 in amazon.com ???
8525's retail price is 599 from att. With a 2 year contract it's 450, which after rebates and everything else it comes down to 350.
the HTC Tytn II is 800 on mobileplanet.com and 850 on htcphonestore.com.
If the carrier branded ones were 300$ cheaper (which is never the case, carrier branded phones are usually 100-150 cheaper than htc branded ones) then ATT's would be 500.
If that was the price everybody would buy one signing up for a 2 year contract and cancel their contract after a month.
Ending up spending 375 or 475 (which is still better than 800)
I'm guessing the retail price is probably going to be around 650-750 and the price with a 2 year contract be around 500-600.
I think everyone is failing to see the point... and most of you are right, its probably not $299 up front... i would bet though that its 299 AFTER rebate....

Keep in mind that AT&T likely sees these devices as big recurring revenue streams - particularly text messaging, data usage, and their pay GPS service. These phones are likely to be sold to tech-savvy customers who use these features extensively. As a result they may even sell these devices at a loss.....
if at&t price does indeed end up being $299, is there any possibility of it driving the unlocked price down?

ATT Kaiser pricing and release update

This was posted in the $299 thread but its at the way back so I thought I would create a thread so people would have an easier time finding it. Apparently the guys at howard forums don't know jack.
http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2007/09/14/att-tilt-drops-some-knowledge-on-us/
$ 349 with 2 year sign up and data (though I imagine corp will be much cheaper)
release date is listed as late september in the docs.

I posted this over at Howard Forums...
There's an online vendor who sells the Kaiser who is offering them to me at $700 for a group buy. If anyone is in IL and is interested, lemme know. The only reason I want to limit it to people in IL is I can drive and meet them someplace so there's no payment/shipping issues. I'm not a reseller and I don't want to be a reseller. I'm just trying to get this as cheap as possible.

I dont think $700 is that cheap though. $600 maybe, I am curious to see what "group" means and will you be able to meet the minimum order in just IL.
I have to buy 5 to get that price. I have Me and 2 buddies from work. So technically I only need 2 more. Figured I'd offer it to the forum.
They are selling them out within days of getting them in stock at 850 so they aren't making much on these at 700. I have just bought a LOT of phones from them and directed a lot of sales their way.
Once AT&T's starts selling, I would think that prices will drop a little but I don't think we'll ever see an online vendor dip below the $700 mark. MMB is $749 which is still the lowest I've seen and he's the most reliable seller I've ever dealt with.
-Mc
Correction: I just checked his website and he raised the price to $779.

5 is a good deal, but at $700 that is too much and all you get is the front camera. ATT for $400 and no front camera is MUCH easier to swallow.

I agree. I just don't want to wait forever for them to release it. I've been holding off because I wanted to see what AT&T did to it. I hate crippled devices. I'm also reluctant to put the 8925 on my account as it could get me kicked off my data plan. A generic device isn't as automated for the system to verify against your plan.
-Mc
Called ATT store by me and asked when they would have the tilt in stock, the guy put me on hold for 2 minutes and told me oct 1st. Surprised to hear he even knew about it and even more surprised to have a date they would have it in store.
Yup me too. i just went to the att store and asked them this afternoon and she said the same thing in october. color will remain the same and as already reported no front camera and so on.........
Some people are claiming that ATT in Manhattan and most of the New York city was selling the 8925 today.
why would u want to watch who u are talking to. if anything u cant lie to the wife when she wants to see where u are if she doesnt believe u .....

I think $500 is a very reasonable price..
I think if it were reasonable you would have had some offers.
I think you would have better luck though selling it in a non-kaiser forum because most people here have one, I would go post in the Wizard forum.

I would pull zuma and collapse off so you can say the others are 100% legal. BTW, why are you selling?
I have 2 tilts... i bought the other one for my girl so she could stop taking my tilt and play games(during Christmas).. but when i got her the tilt and try to surprise her she got mad so i just kept the phone for myself incase something ever happen to my tilt i would have a back up tilt... now the reason why im selling this because i need to buy borla exhaust

Not rain on your parade, but Att has them for $99 refurb 2yr contract ,new $199 to 299 2 year contact, and you can find them new any where from $350 to $400 with-out a contract.

Sorry... even if you bought those games, that doesn't mean you can load them on a phone and sell them.

Maybe a discerning MOD will see fit to close and or delete this thread.
I guess your definition of new and others may vary. To me once it has been out of the box, booted up, CID Unlocked with ROM flash, and software installed it is used. Plus you are at least 4 months in to your warranty. Also do you have the receipt when you paid full price so the purchaser will be able to use the warranty they have left? To advertise something as new would assume a full year warranty.

thats wrong
what is your problem man i have box and everything i showed you pics if you like i will send you pic of how much i paid and recpit of my credit card
@bluesonicc, don't take offense but there is a big thread going on here about guys that were scammed recently by member(s) selling tilts and sending lint rollers, candles, etc. Seriously, I think your best bet would be to use eBay/craigslist to sell your phone. You'd probably end up getting more money for it anyway. As is at this point, though, you're going to run into a lot of paranoia over your proposed sale.
hey
i understand what you mean but i have shown everything to this guy full pics and now sending him video of me useing it with todays date it was my girlsfreind phone we broke up and not i wont to get rid of it i never sold anything on ebay b4 not to sure how to use it so thats y i came on here i know it sounds good to be true but i told him that i would use paypal so if he dont like it paypal will him get his money back i told him that i would give money back if he dident like it just upset i know that are bad people out there but its like there calling me a lier and dont even know me im proving as much as i can to him with out him just seeing the phone
Without a decent history here or on HoFo, your not going to get very far.
As stated before, sign up on eBay and list it there. That way the buyer and seller are protected (sort of).
And use punctuation and caps in the proper places.

You're not getting it - the scammer had all sorts of pictures of the Tilts he was selling. And yet, when the buyers opened their deliveries, they found lint rollers, candles and other assorted crap.
Just because a seller can prove that he is in possession of a Tilt does not guarantee that there will be a Tilt in the box you receive.
That doesn't mean, of course, that this particular seller is a/the scammer. If you trust him and feel that this is a good deal, then go for it. Nobody's stopping you.
But don't expect a lot of sympathy from this forum if you get screwed.

OMG!! eBay froud!

could not believe this!- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290475556636&_trksid=p2759.l1259
how can you do that?! bet the firmware wasnt even built by the seller.. guessing that the prosedure would be- Make a Gold Card and run a RUU with official 2.2.. shame some people actually buy this..
your opinions?
if that sells i plan to make a lot of money in the future

Yeah ive seen some stuff like this. Back earlyer this year when the Nexus One just came out people didnt know you could just go to googles online store and buy it for 530$ unlocked, and on ebay they were going for 700-900 so people got smart and made a buy it now listing for 25$ saying i will tell you how to get the phone for 530$ and people bought it and all they got was a link to www.google/phone
Wow you must feel so ripped of if that happened to you

ebay is a scam! i lost 400.
i remember people selling wm5 upgrade instructions, the rom maker can protest to ebay, but that's about all that can be done i think.
Sadly like when doing email scam, if just 1% of people who watch this buy it, then it will be profitable for the ones doing this fraud.
So they will keep doing it.
