You'd know that.. jokes man.
I've never used it, did go on it, and didn't find it easy to use. Just use eBay at least what you pay for you get so better for you

id write more about it but , hey its xda ...

craigslist is ok for local selling/purchasing of junk. The problem is that everyone wants to lowball your already low low price.
Example: I had a guitar that is worth $800.00 I put it up on CL for $400.00 and people were still trying to either trade it for firewood (i.e. junk guitars) or try and get it for $350.00.
But another good example is I had an Apple 3g - and I was able to sell it for $200.00 no issues. So essentially I had it for free for the 2yrs I owned it.
... so as long as your dealing local and your a hardass - its not bad for selling stuff. Just don't try and purchase out of your area.
And stay away from the personals (which I think they closed anyways) Thats where all the Chester's are hiding with their candies and ice cream.

craigslist is the place where you transact and get killed.

Its the greates place on earth for a high schooler to find used cars.

I prefer to stay away from it

anyone heard of the craigslist killer?? no?? ok

It's pretty much the best thing ever. I buy/sell all of my phones on CL. Just sold my 6 month old Evo for $300 cash, then turned around and bought a Nexus S for $400. Ironically, I later found out the guy I bought the NS from is a fellow XDA-er.

Yea I saw it on TV. What an asshole that dude was

Meaning I got screwed or the guy who bought it did? Between you and me, I'm pretty sure I took him for a ride, it was probably only worth $200-250. I used it for a solid 6 months and it had a couple bumps and bruises.

Maybe, seems like the ones above $300 are either new or very new (within a month), I got mine the first day they went on sale. I'm happy with the 3 i got, maybe I could've gotten $350, but what's another $50.

So I Bought An Apple Product Today

So in most cases I would not even bother with iPods, iPhones, etc. but then I saw this:
http://lunatik.com/lunatik
A high quality (And well reviewed) watch housing for the 6th gen nano. Considering I am a huge fan of minimalist design and I never really had a watch that I have liked, I bought one. It didn't hurt that I had graduation cash to burn. Found a NIB nano on eBay for about 125 and I feel like I will be using this for many years to come. I am actually excited for this and they should both arrive at about the same time.
So, XDA. Thoughts? Am I stupid for being suckered in to this? (Don't worry. You can't make me regret it) Have you ever found some odd reason to justify buying an Apple product? Share

No. I was about to buy an air a month ago or so and I just could not bring myself to support such a horrible company. The air has a great price point when compared to other ultra portables, but it is still an apple product.
Conversation I had about apple the other day on g+

Indeed it is. I had some extra cash (No I am not spoiled, graduation cash) and I felt like I should make one little splurge purchase. Everything else I have purchased has been on sale stuff or used things to save money

That's a sick watch. I would totally get one, that is if I had an iPod Nano. But nano lost it's video playing skills and besides why do you need it if you own a SGS II and a HP Touchpad, not to brag or anything.
What color did you get? Red looks damn right sexy to me.

No I have not and I never will. I cannot stand apple and I will never buy a product from them.
I do like the watch except for the rubber watch bands. I could never get into rubber watch bands, too 80's for me.
I too am a fan of minimalist ideas, that's why my phone is my clock, music player, camera, portable computer, etc.

I can't stand Apple products.
Lol jk, posting this from my iPad. Lol

Apparently this thing ships from China :/
I will be getting my nano this week but this won't get here until like two weeks from tomorrow. Eek

Seems expensive to me, cool though.
I see two main issues.
- Going flat always pressing buttons to check the time.
- Having headphones tethered to your hand would be awkward.

I cant imagine having a "watch" that you'd need to charge......
With regards to Apple in general.
I want a Mac / MacBook solely for audio stuff. Pro audio software just runs better on macs.
Cant justify the cost though....

I can see myself throwing it on the charger nightly not too bad.
As far as audio stuff goes, I get along pretty well on my PC. Linux has some nice choices as well

No... I would sell it for at least $200

I saw one of those on ebay starting 150$, mint in 200$. I want to buy one :3

If he's your best friend, just give it to him for free. If he's a good friend, $165 is a good price, I just bought one for that price. If he's a crappy friend, $180-$200 depends on the condition of the phone. I would only pay $200 for a Nexus S if it has original box, accessories, and at least 9/10 condition though. Just make sure its a one time payment only.

Buy from XDA or Swappa, avoid ebay for used phones if you can unless there are lots of photos and a detailed description, speaking from experience here.

I snagged one up on ebay for 120 they have been going for less nowa days. 150 wouldn't be bad..

That is a bit low for a good quality GSM version, I can understand the Sprint version being that low.

Really I love this phone but I just picked one up for $75 on Craig'slist. Its my second nexus s4g because my last ones power button died. But let's be honest the hardware is being pushed to its limit and for the same $165 with some searching you could find a galaxy nexus. Like I said I love this phone and wouldn't trade it for anything but the price is kinda high.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium

I think you should give him this at 165$ because he will feel glad and There's noot mych Difference between 165$ and 200$.Business with the whole world but not with your Friends...So Give him this at 165$ and he would get happy Too.Now all Depends On You.

i think 165$ is fine, in my country the used nexus s (97-98%) with box and accessories is only 150$ because it's m200s :good:

i think that 165 $ are a good price! in Italy Nexus S is sell at 179€

Good is good...but with 80$ plus you can find the Galaxy Nexus so if you have to sell it 165$ is a good price

I plaid $40 for mine, 2 weeks old from my friend, just the phone though.

You guys are all completely INSANE asking $150+ for a nexus s!!! You can easily find them on ebay for $60....they are a dime a dozen. Anyone who pays that much for a phone that's two generations old (and beyond EOL) should be b!tch slapped to oblivion.

Yeah...looks like the bidding is ruthless and there's no hope to find one for under $100, right?

Did you read the description? It's missing parts of the bezel. The power button doesn't work. I said *good condition*. Also, do a search of the "Completed Items" for a better feel of what they are selling at. I'm seeing most around the $110-$160 range...
Try these:

The CDMA (Sprint) version is way cheap, but the GSM is easily $150. I just spent the last couple weeks shopping for one and, yes, the bidding IS ruthless. You will be VERY hard pressed to find a good condition GSm Nexus S for less than $150. It's not impossible, but you would have to have the cash on hand and be very patient.
What you will not find, though, is even a Sprint version for $60. Well, not one that works anyways.

I bought my NS4G used in good condition (insignificant scratches on screen, with a protector on, invisible) for 85 with free shipping. Most NS4Gs go for about 85-95 on ebay. I wouldn't pay more than 100 for one in excellent condition.

Just give up, lol.
Bottom line:
4G > Cheap. Nobody wants CDMA phones
GSM > Not cheap. Nexus S still selling very well as decent replacements
Even similar phones, Galaxy S for instance, will share similar pricing.

Does the Z1 come with headphones?

hi, quick simple question, does it come with any headset/phones? on the sony website it mentioned coming with a set. i know its not a massive deal but it comes in handy.
but i've had two units now (sent one back for replacement as it was a bit faulty) and neither had anything in the box. although there was a space in the box which looks like the headphones may have fit.
bought through o2, seems a bit odd that units bought through a certain retailer (for the same money) would be lacking in some of the package.

already got soundmagics. guess i'm making a bigger deal about it than i need to be as i probably wouldnt use unless in case of not having my other ones on hand.

Mine did not come with earplugs.
But I got a dock though, and will be gettin a bluetooth headset anyway.

I got 2 headset... 1 wired and 1 wireless..

I got the premium headset out of the box, bought from Sony store in Berlin.

Yeah it's weird, some comes bundled with headset and no dock, while other has dock and no headset. What is this BS sony? Just give headset and dock in all packages, problem solved.

AKG Headphones

My plan was to sell the free headphones I got but they're no longer worth the $299. I can probably only get $100? Are they worth it to sell or should I keep it?

They're pretty nice headphones. I figured they're worth more to me than what I'd get from selling plus the work involved.
If you ever fly or commute the noise canceling is great. Sound quality is solid and theyre comfortable. I still use my IEMs most of the time but it's nice to have them.

That's what I was thinking. I might just keep them. As long as they have good sound quality. I'm kind of picky.

I am too. My main pair of headphones are Vsonic GR07s which for sure sound better but the AKG ones are solid and the noise canceling is nice as is the Bluetooth.

I got a pair from Samsung and I put them on eBay for $120 and I had zero bids. I don't know what I'm going to do with them, I already have Bose noise canceling headphones.

I think the gift idea is the way to go. Giving them to your daughter is priceless, especially factoring in what you could get in return from selling them outright.
They actually have a decent sound quality & an optional 3.5 mm connection.
I'd be cool with getting them as a gift, but, in no universe would I plunk down the original MSRP.

I wouldn't buy a 9 year old $100+ headphones, but since they where free, why not. She'll be crazy excited. Now I just have to wait until Christmas...

I was going to put mine on eBay but for $60 (seems to be the going rate) minus eBay and PayPal fees I'll pass. Instead I found a guy who was looking for a new pair of Bluetooth headphones and I sold them for $75.

I switched from some Beats to the AKG ones and I really like them! The sound quality and battery life are awesome! Only thing I'm not the biggest fan of is the fact that they don't stay AS well as the Beats on the head, but minor inconvenience. ?

What is the point in selling them? Just keep them as spares. I purchased another pair from a 3rd party retailer for next to nothing as I wanted another spare set. They are pretty good quality in terms of construction and performance.

After like 2 weeks I finally got someone to buy mine for $99 in OfferUp.
