I've heard lots of people here talking about buying their kaisers for $200, EVEN $99!! Where on Earth do you find such a good deal? I have been in the market for weeks on Ebay and can only find ones for $500+. Does anyone have some advice for me on where I can pick one up for at most $400? Anyone selling or know of somebody selling theirs? I don't care if it isn't unlocked or still has the AT&T ROM... I can manage that. Anyways, I could really use some insight from you people. Any info would help. Thanks!

I didn't know if there was already a thread for a topic like this. Looks like others are in the same boat as me.

Do you have ATT service in your area? if so, then you should be able to buy it too. I only said US only because I wasn't sure if the deal would apply to other countries as well. Since it does ask for a zip code to verify availablity I would assume it would work in canada as well. Try it, see if it accepts your zip.
send a PM to me too, i want where can i buy it to
Steal it at HTC manufacture !!! just kidding
AT&T is only for US residents
*sigh*
I guess I'll keep searching ebay.
ill put mine up on the chopping block for $400... its in great condition...
mines got the ab-fab wifi router working on it...

Newegg has a little bit of a better deal. Comes out to $129 after all rebates. You can get a free bluetooth headset too during the checkout although you do have to pay $5 shipping.

I bought my Touch Diamond at Negri Electronics. Those guys have been my "go-to" guys for a while now. They stand behind their product and they are VERY FAST!!
negrielectronics.com
Expansys sent a phone to me 3 day, when I paid for overnight (which has happened before). Negri ships the day you put the order in if its early enough. I'm impressed with their product selection and very impressed with their service. The price may sometime be a few dollars more, but well worth it.
If you buy online, buy it here, at least you don't have to worry about getting the run around when you need service.
i can get it for $720 AU...... direct from manufacturer.
and this??

Squaretrade is offering 35% discount today. Enter "SECRET" to get the discount. I just got 2yr. accidental damage plan for the NC for $25! BTW After getting confirmation, I felt a sense of relief about the NC. Strange I know but I just felt differently.

Nice Find - just got a NC warranty for $25 for 2 years!
It is a good deal. I grabbed the 3 year deal.
Has anyone ever had to have something replaced by Square Trade? How does it compare to B&Ns warranty?
I've never heard of SquareTrade. Is it a reliable company? They seem to have good writeups about them, but I don't know anybody who's heard of them. I was about to buy the BN policy, but if I have to deal with mailing it and dealing with customer support and not bringing it back directly to BN, why not try this.
Seams like a good deal for 2 years $25 with the discount.
Never heard of them. I may consider this after researching a bit. Thanks for posting.

Yes, I have. I had an old Windows phone and when it broke, i sent it in with one of their free shipping labels and then within 8 yrs of them receiving the unit, they sent a msg that they couldn't fix it and would refund me. I had the $500 refund less than 24 hrs later in my paypal acct. They're excellent.

awesome company
Squaretrade is an awesome company. I bought my sister a moto rizer off amazon when it first came out for 180. 3 years later within a week of the end of warranty I sent it in because it was broken. They couldn't repair it, but they did give me the 180 i paid for it. I also spilled water all over my fuze, I didn't have the accidental damage( which I did opt for for the nook because I feel most damage would be accidental to this huge screen), but they not only repaired it, they replaced the keyboard, hinges, and gave me a new battery. Not to mention they left the zaggskin i had just put on fully intact. After I submitted the claim, I had the phone in my hands in about one week. I just used code to get warranty for my new sharp 55 tv and my nook. I highly recommend!! 120 bucks to warranty 1250 worth of electronics for 3 years?? Cant go wrong!!!

Thanks for the tip and the recommendation. Just purchased using the code!
Thanks for the info!
I wasn't able to use the original discount code, but found a coupon code "JINGLE" on retailmenot . Saved me $7 on a two year deal.
Crap....Snow storm = no Nook for me as I was going to buy it today...Somehow the store sold out during our blizzard like conditions..
As for SquareTrade, they are very well known and very trustworthy. They are often mentioned for Ebay sales also..
Hello,
So I got the Dev. edition coming in the mail. This is the first non carrier branded phone I've ever had, and what to put insurance on it. With this being such a specific model, that doesn't seem widely available, I want to know which insurance company should I use?
I have found several:
https://esecuritel.com/
http://www.worthavegroup.com/
http://us.protectyourbubble.com/
http://www.protectcell.com/
http://www.squaretrade.com/
Does any one have any experience with any? How did you like them? Any Info will be appreciated. Thank you.
Edit: ended up going with http://www.worthavegroup.com/ they seemed to have the best policy on replacement.
attached is the policy info.
Hi
Greetings,

Well yeah. I have added it to my phone though best buy or the carrier before, but that was when I bought the phone through them. I like to not have to worry if I break it. I broke my evo 3d 3 times, so I think I need it.
I don't know if famous == best?
Nobody has any experience with these companies?

I suggest squaretrade instead. They insure you even if you drop your phone(which suppose to be your fault).

How much did you pay for that developer edition? What is the cost of the insurance? My One is just a basic 32gb rooted and unlocked and with the rebate I paid about $100 for it. I thought the developer edition was about $600. I had my EVO for three years until the usb broke. Is that developer edition really worth it. I think S Off will eventually become available for the One - so with S Off on a basic One - what can the developer edition do that a basic one with S Off can't do? I always kinda thought the insurance was a rip off and I am an insurance agent.

After shipping and tax, $700. I wanted the 64 GB. I also wanted the feel of not being tied to a contract. The insurance is like $8-10 a month or ~$150 for a 2-year one payment. I the developer edition has more frequencies(I doubt I'll ever use them though, maybe if I ever take a trip abroad). I was looking more and more into insurance and am now starting to think maybe not. This is because they can replace your phone with something "similar".
BTW, I got my phone today and it is gorgeous. No flaws I can see.
Have to wait a while to activate though.
I used the Moonshine S-Off program and now my phone has S-Off.
yea i have S-OFF too. the only difference now between developer models and non developer models is the potential for 64gb storage. just as a tidbit i have the insurance through my carrier t-mob.
thanks man was wondering this same question i just got this phone too it is stupid awesome!!! btw what carrier did you use?? i went for straight talk unlimited for 45 a month

So does this mean we will be seeing an Infected or Synergy ROM for the HTC One? Because that would be really awesome... For Sprint of course
I have the usual Tmobile insurance which sucks. There should be more info on the insurance companies you're looking at but most of the time, DEV phones are bought at your own risk. Just a phone the carriers don't have.
Anyone in us go get best buy insurance 10$ a month no deductible to get a new one if yours breaks only thing it doesn't cover is if you lose it or stolen everything else cracked screen bricked doesnt boot take it to best buy and they trade you out for free as long as you e been paying your 10$ a month. I canceled my att insurance for this one cost 3$ more a month but I don't have to shell out 200$ each time I break it.
I never lose my phone or get it stolen as it's always on me I just break screens lol broke 2 one x + then att decided to let me upgrade to the one since I kept breaking it's weaker predeccesor

That's what the companies listed do, they insure your phone without going through the carrier.

Well if I were you, I would get it from Square trade. I did some googling and from different droid/smartphone forums, people have had good things to say about them. But I did not search the other warranty companies so you should do that. (I mostly search the keywords "square trade worth it forum" and started reading).
Examples:
http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-tf101-general-discussions/7968-who-have-squaretrade-warranty.html
http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-tf101-general-discussions/7968-who-have-squaretrade-warranty.html
I might do the same myself.
If I were you, I would google Squaretrade coupons. They always send out 30% off codes and stuff for the warranties so you might find something.
The US carriers use the same insurance
All 4 of the big US carriers use the same company For Insurance>> Asurion. Asurion hides in the background and lets the carriers package thier product in the carriers own candy coating. I believe that Best Buy uses them as well ( I may be wrong on that one ) All of them will, at their own option , repalce or repair your brand new phone that you just spent $ 600, $700, $850 purchasing for a refurbished one. I mention Best Buy because they replaced my sons brand new (2 week old) 64 gig IPhone 4S with a refurbished one 3 times before he got one that the earpiece speaker actually worked. Had he known that they were going to replace it with a refurb, then he could have easily returned it to Apple for waranty.
Carefully read everything before buying Insurance. Check out the ones already listed in this thread. Some home owners insurance companies will let you purchase a ryder on your policy that could cover your phone. I am going to check into the latter when i Purchase a HTC One. Just as soon as it it is finally confirmed yes or no on The devs getting the Tmobile radio worked out for 1700/2100 faux G.

Hello,
I recently purchased a HTC One® Developer Edition. I was wondering how your claims are handled. If I get your cell phone coverage and damaged my HTC One® Developer Edition would it be replaced with the exact same model?* If the phone can be repaired, we will pay for the repair (minus the deductible) before replacing it.
*
If not, how are your claims handled?* If the phone has to be replaced, we send a check in the amount of the replacement cost minus the deductible.
*
Note: You are required to submit a copy of the sales receipt when a claim is filed, so please be sure to keep a copy of the receipt.
*
Furthermore, if I have the device replaced under a warranty issue, would the replacement device be covered?* Yes, you will need to call Customer Service to update the serial number so that the insurance is transferred to the new phone.
I await a response to these questions, before purchasing a policy.
Thank you for your time,
*
Shaun

Hi guys! Couple of days ago I had a very bad day. Recently I received my order containing M8 (delivery from USA to Russia) and for less than 1 week I managed to damage this device. It just fell down out of my chest pocket when I stooped to feed a cat living in the factory shop where I work. It bumped against concrete with left top corner. It was not in case unfortunately cause the case is still in delivery. As result I have now cracked screen. But! As far as I understand only superficial layer is cracked - Gorilla Glas. The screen itself seems to be ok. The device is fully functioning. Hence it`s only visual shortcoming. Nevetherless it is very unpleasant. I inquired in the nearest oficial service center about the possibility to repair it, but they even don`t have spare parts, which are expected only in June. And the price for screen replacement will make about 10000 Rubles - it`s about 280 dollars - too much only for screen replacement for me. I haven`t found spare parts on ebay as well. Could you maybe help me some way...
Does anybody happen to know, if and where I can buy spare screen for M8 now? How do you think will it appear later on ebay?
Or is it possible to insert a screen with same dimensions but from another smartphone?
And the last one question, how do you think, would it be possible to separate by myself superficial gorilla glas layer from the main screen without damaging it?
Thanks a lot guys and have a nice day. And I hope my English is understandable for you.
I don't know how they enforce the HTC Advantage Program in Russia, but HTC offers a free screen replacement if it happens within the first 6 months. Have you checked on that?

I never heard about this Advantage programm to be honest. But in the official service center they indicated price about 280 dollars. I guess it means that the programm is not available in Russia. However I bought it in USA. Now I`m going to get in touch with the seller from ebay, where I bought it. Maybe he would help me...

As the seller is in the US he/she should be able to use the advantage program.

thanks! I asked in HTC USA online chat support and got the answer, that ebay is not an authorized HTC seller, so the phone is not covered by the Advantage Programm. Screen Replacement would cost for me about 220 dollars. Rather pricey...

Yes but the seller from Ebay must have bought from an authorised dealer - surely they can get it repaired for you for a small fee?

I know that is probably a stretch, but I would have to agree. If the seller is willing and able, you could probably ship to them. Have them get it fixed and then give them a fee for having the free replacement done for you. However, you would have to trust them enough to do this for you. Also, the cost of shipping back and forth and the fee of the seller would have to be less than the $220 or it may not be worth it. Good luck and sorry this happened.

try to check on ebay. At least screen replacement is already available.
Send it to HTC repair center, it will be cheaper than you think. I had my screen including lcd assembly, back cover and speaker grills repaired for £103 or $170..
Have you tried sparesworldmobile.com, they are europe based and ship to russia for what i saw. I think they also have tech support if you ask then for the costs perhaps it fits your needs.
