I have a captivate which i recently got exchanged for a new one under warranty and since i have an upgrade pending i am gonna get some other android.
Any suggestions on where and how to find a good resale value? I went to one local flea market and they offered $120 which i believe is low. Please advise

You could check out eBay and CraigsList for price comparisons of units in the same condition as yours.
You could check gazelle.com...they buy gadgets.
You could ask at the place you buy your next phone to see if there's a trade-in value. My wife got a free flip-phone when we signed up, then got jealous of my Captivate. So we hit a store to see if she could upgrade. She got a $30 credit for the free flip-phone. Add in the $18 fee for early upgrade, and she walked out with a Motorola Bravo for $38.
And if you decide the money isn't a big deal, you could always donate it to a developer who needs guinea pig devices for mod/rom development. I'm sure you could find a taker or two in this forum.
eBay is probably the highest return, even after counting the ridiculous fees and such.
thanks for the reply guys. I will give craigslist a shot and see how it goes.
Thanks again
Try Craigslist and remember that the value of your phone is less ask for a reasonable price and be patient you can also try trades

Hello,
I have quite a few brand new or slightly used accessories for sale because I returned my device within 2 weeks. The only accessories slightly used were the cases and they were barely used and are in perfect condition.
Please see attachment for the items, pictures and prices. Shipping is not included but I can ship however you like but USPS would probably be the best bet.
Let me know if you have any questions and these are 1st come 1st served. I prefer to sell all to 1 person but will entertain offers.
Best,
BC

So I ported over to my friends account. Got an attiX. Had signal issues due to where I live it would take for ever tobtefresh. Well I get another atrix same thing. Then I trade off for the thrill. Great signal! But I have some lag not much but a little. But I can't stand the quility of the pictures it takes and the slowness of how long it takes for the camera to load up. My old 3mp Samsung acclaim took better clearer pics than this. So I was gonna want the new galaxy s II Monday. Well the only way is to cancel this line and make a new line with a new number since I'm still within the 30 days. Cause they wont let me trade in phones. But the only problem is that I'm a autherizsed user on the account. But can't create lines and delete them in the store. BUT THE account holder sleeps during the day and works at night so he is definitely NOT gonna drive an hour And 15 min away out of his way I can't do that. So what can I do??

If i read that correctly you stated that you WERE in your 30 day window still. Just pay the 35 restocking fee and get what u want. I originally got the infuse and ended up taking it back 3 days later for the thrill. Will prob return this before its over.

Shouldn't ever buy phones from AT&T. They will give you hell if you want to exchange more than once and charge a restocking fee if you want to return the device. Pretty sure Best Buy has neither of those restrictions.

Corporate AT&T stores, yes. I work for an AT&T Authorized Retailer and we don't charge restocking fees. And we can work with our prices for phones & accessories and do bundle discounts

Well I've been with att for 12 years. Never exchanged phones until this time. So if att wants to be dicks, then I guess I can always go to another carrier. If you are gonna be stuck with a phone for 2 years then u gotta be sure u can live with it. Playing with a phone in the store for 10 minutes isn't enough time to evaluate it. Sometimes it might take a week or so to make up your mind. Att will just have to live if i decide to return this for the galaxy s2. Actually the battery is my biggest issue with the lack of interest and development pulling up a close second.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to share:

I just bought one, price is lower than most of sellers, only 1 left! Hopefully I like it more than my s2! :good:
that's expensive D:
You are an idiot for purchasing that. Sorry.
I cannot buy off of Play store, or from local stores, since im from South America.
It was not a bad deal, I sold my s2 for $400 =D

A lot of people on ebay are profiting like crazy because they were able to buy like 6-7 phones. Sucks for us users that either got on the back order list or didn't get one. Google should have limited to 1-2 phones per address. If you cant buy locally then thats fine.
If I wasn't able to get mine from the play store I would have paid up to 450 for the 8 and 600 for the 16

Yea, I got a prime for it, but it is always the same. The phone I owned before my s2 was a bb torch (1st gen) which I sold for $380 and bought the s2 for $420. You'll be amazed on how much we pay for techology devices over here (Ecuador).
The s3 is around $900 atm, lol, (with contract for 1-2 years)

Kind of ticks me off that Google did not set limits or if they did they set them too high.

Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Issue as your phone being damaged or not working..I don't believe Google honors a warranty made to someone else which leaves LG meaning you would most likely be without a phone for weeks.
You have to ask yourself if out would be better to wait a week or two or pay more and take a risk. Keep in mind that when ever we buy like this from these people it only encourages them to do it more.

BS "8 available / 27 sold"
It looks like some were able to order a lot more. I think this is total BS! It would have been awesome if no one would buy one off of ebay for these ridiculous prices and let the seller be stuck with them.

WHY?
You just got ripped off buddy
500.00 on Ebay is a fair markup. You figure the phone from the Play store will be around 375.00 - 400.00 after tax and shipping. The seller will make a 100.00 to 125.00 profit.

Not even that much. You have to factor in eBay costs and PayPal costs. I recently sold a pair of ice skates and I got hit with over $40 in fees.
So you figure my 16g n4 came to me for around 400 from Google. That means in order for someone to make any profit they need to sell it for at least 450.
With that being said posting it for $500 is not unreasonable. They are making like $50-60 bucks profit. I think that's fair for the effort of posting it etc.... I loath the people selling it for $800+ however. Just my .02

iT IS THEIR POLICY TO PRICE MATCH if it sells and ships from Amazon (who owns best buy)
Haha. I got my HTC one for 200. Then seen the ad that was for 99 with free beats speakers and I called and they refunded 100 dollars and sent me the beats speakers. And it turns out it was an offer by mistake lol but I got the phone for 99 and sold the beats pill for 170 on Amazon so I made money

I went to an At&t store to preorder the phone, they "couldn't let me just buy the phone outright (even thought the website has the option to) I preordered my note 3 from on the next program (which is pretty much still a contract in my opinion). With next you can pay off the phone anytime, so as soon as I picked it up from the store I paid it off.
I paid $665 total and had paid the tax when I went into preorder $42.
So about $707 total, which is much better than paying $724 without tax included.
