Anyone bought G-note from ebay? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have yet to see someone claim to have bought e-note from ebay? I see prices as low as $670 dollars (US) including shipping yet no one has reported to have bought one from them. what is the risk involved that people are still paying $740 from other places and no one seems to be taking advantage of new g-notes from ebay at cheaper prices?

I think its fear + ignorance which stops more people getting them from ebay. These things are made pretty close to Hong Kong, so its not suprising how cheap they are buying them from there through ebay. ebay used to be fairly shady too, and I think a lot of people still hold the fear of splashing $700 into a site which they may feel unsure about. However, as many of us know these days, ebay + paypal combined is an insanely safe shopping source. Not only is your sale fully ensured, but the amount of turnover most of these stores do, and the ability to access other shopper's comments does make it a really valuable source.
I'll be getting my note from ebay sometime next week (when the pay comes through), but have previously bought my SGS 1, and asus transformer from there, with NO problems, extremely quick shipping, and hundreds of dollars saved. I always recomend it

thanks for the vote of confidence. I am also thinking about getting my g-note next week through ebay.

Just read through the sellers past feedback. You should quickly see if the seller is reliable. Also read carefully through the description to see if it is new/used/damaged or if the title is wrong and they they are selling a 600$ notebook with a photo of a galaxy on it rather than a phone.
I got mine from eBay.

I bought mine from Ebay I paid 720 for it including shipping that was free. That's 2 Weeks ago prices were much higher.
It was a reputable seller and didn't have any issue the phone is running great

I went through 3 SGN's so far.. One from Amazon.de, One from Ebay.de and one from my Country which was the most expensive one but was worth the local warranty reassurance since I'm keeping this one. Received it today.
The second one from Ebay was a German model, no problems, sold it like I did with the first one from Amazon after I played around abit with it.
Anyway ALWAYS read the FEEDBACK! Even if it's a TOP Rated it means NOTHING! It might be a hacked account or a bad TopRated. Better safe than sorry.
Example: Someone is selling some SGN's in a very attractive price. Check the feedback if another person bought and received a Note from the Seller already. If the listing just came up then check it's feedback for some expensive stuff and not 2-3euros worth of items.
If the Seller has low feedback(<30-50) but it's 100% positive and every buyer is happy with him, then sent him a message first and see. He might be just a regular guy selling a Note.
Yes Ebay and Paypal did help me a couple times and they were very helpful, but Scammers will always be around.

Got mine on ebay for $760 about 3 weeks ago when they first came out. It arrived in a few days without any problem. It turn out to be a Polish model with a with a Polish provider branding.
Just rooted & loaded a custom ROM & now all OK.
I love this phone. Absolutely awesome screen.

Got mine from a Hong Kong ebayer with no problem.

[Q] How much is a Nexus One worth now?

I am wanting to sell my Nexus One and I've been looking around some of the prices on Ebay and Craigslist. I wanted to know what people think their Nexus Ones are worth right now.
I tried selling it to someone on this forum and was told: "sorry i can buy a brand new factory sealed n1 from half a dozen places for less than 250." I wasn't able to find any new N1s for at least $250 so I don't think this statement was an attempt to lowball the price. But, if it were true, then that means that my N1's value is on-par with the iPhone 2 or 3G... which I find to be a little hard to swallow.
Mine is in incredibly excellent condition and nothing is broken. I'd love to hear thoughts and opinions.
I've bought mine from buydig.com 2 weeks ago for about 250. Brand new. But with screen calibration issue - something that apparently all nexus ones have :-(
I just checked that site and I don't see anywhere where they sell cell phones...
what network does it operate on? is it unlocked?
if it's in good condition i'd sell it for 300-400 depending on many things. is it rooted? latest OS. that's just me tho.
$210 used, or $260 new, on Amazon
Brand new from ebay at US$279 + free shipping...
I had three and all were rooted with custom ROMs/updated radios.
Sold one on eBay for $215 (auction, not BuyItNow). Sold one on Craigslist for $210.
Keeping the other one for posterity's sake. Still an awesome device, and definitely was a game-changer in the mobile world.

Where to buy?!?!

Okay...I've been drooling over this phone for the past few weeks. I'm almost ready to pull the trigger...but I'm looking for the least expensive but most reputable online dealer to make my purchase. I'm in the USA so it would have to be imported.
Suggestions? Experiences? Warranty issues? I'm all ears. Let me know what your experience has been with the different online retailers.
Cheers!

eBay you can find them as low as 590 used but new ones run about 650

Good Point! eBay is probably the one place I haven't looked! Thanks man!
Amazon has a few sellers offering them for around 650. they're also fulfillment so you get free 2 day shipping.
I'm also getting ready to pull the trigger.
If you're just looking for a cheap price, eBay has Australian Notes on sale, which I think is the cheapest of them all due to currency fluctuations.
Anybody know of a seller that does international shipping that has a REALLY lenient return policy? I tend to have horrible luck with displays and don't want to get stuck with one with defects (I once had to return five LCD monitors in a row because each one had more than two dead/stuck pixels! Also, my current Cellphone, a Streak, has an always-on stuck red pixel).
Given the fact that AMOLED screens slowly develop defects, I would really like to find a seller that offers 14+ day return policy with little or no expense on my part, in case I end up making multiple returns.
I found this in another thread but Integrontech has them for $650 also. Here's the link: http://www.integrontech.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-N7000-16GB-Unlocked-Black-p/sam-n7000.htm
I've never used them...so I'm not sure how reputable they are.
I did buy my i9100 from expansys USA and it was perfect! Fast shipping. Never had any trouble with the hardware...so I never dealt with the warranty part. But my experience with them was very good.
Might pay to be a little more patient, I'm thinkin' there will be at least another 50 drop post Christmas.
Just a thought and I could be wrong so...
Be nice to use that extra savings towards accessories though IMHO
When I first started lookin' I couldn't find one below 730.00 so if I can get one for six I can that custom leather case I want and break even there.

the price is dropping everyday pretty freaking fast.

Paid $699 yesterday from Newegg.
I sure hope my ATT plan doesn't have issues like everyone else is reporting (forcing a tablet plan, forcing tiered data, etc).

Hello! Link please
I've got friends who would buy this for me in either India or Australia.
Where would I have either one of them shop in their respective countries to get me one? Is it worth it, plus shipping, or should I just drop $650 on Ebay? I mean, from what I saw the exchange rate, 35,000 Indian Rupees (MSRP) is $660.

what the hell is blue version ?
I see amazon is listed as an official vendor which makes me curious.
+ there is no warranty on international phones imported to U.S. because the official U.S. versions are the ones sold by the damn carriers via at&t , verizon etc.
There once was a note...

Yeah, I saw that, but the arrival date was in 2012.
Newegg had free 2-day shipping (shoprunner free year trial) and I had a $20 coupon from google.
So, $679 and I'll have it Monday. Plus there is a free charger thingy thrown in, so that's a plus.
I just really hope my unlimited data isn't f-d around with after putting my sim in...

Doesn't the GT prefix indicate the IMEI will be considered a tablet? Some listings omit the GT prefix...I think these are the Polish/Netherland version that doesn't flag ATT as a tablet...
Hmmm...it appears the white one is going for $800 still, while the black(ish) one is $650ish. I'm debating on importing 5 or 6 of these to see if I can pay for mine.
Thoughts?

[Q] Too good to be true?

This simply must be a scam of some sort, right? Who could be selling touchpads on Ebay for $40 with free shipping?
Ebay item 280795551667
Sorry, too newbie to be allowed to post a link...
Yeah and for a 32GB model as well.
/itm/New-TouchPad-32GB-Wi-Fi-9-7in-Glossy-Black-/280795551667?pt=Apparel_Merchandise&vxp=mtr&hash=item4160b817b3
We'll see, I just bought 2. Covered under the Buyer protection and I can afford to lose $80 if it's a scam. I've bought from this buyer a few times and never had a problem. Thanks for the lead maybe?!?
I hope it is legit...you've actually bought from this character before, lloydcabraham? Electronics?
I ordered one, I've been scammed before on eBay, but since it has buyer protection if its a scam we will get full refund. Since about 130 people have bought so far we won't have too much trouble reporting the scam, if it comes to that. Hopefully it's not a scam.
Looks like 499 of them were sold over the course of a day or so...let's see if anyone actually gets one delivered...fingers crossed
They are coming from China I will be very surprised if you got the touchpad rather then some KIRF from china.
I would be surprised to even get a KIRF. I figured it was a "take the money and run" kind of things. Still, even if it is a KIRF, Ebay and Paypal would seem to offer some protection to the buyer...I hope...

Since the item description states that the brand is HP, then we would be protected by eBay and Paypal. But we would probably have to pay return shipping.

What if the buyer receives an empty box? How is paypal/ebay going to protect you from that? The seller obviously shipped something, they can say that the buyer is lying and that the product was in the box.

Not 500 of them. Plus you video tapenit and throw that theory out the window. Not to mention the shipping weight would be off. I would buy one and video tape the opening of the box.

I hope Leo is right...it does make sense that any seller could scam a buyer or two by sending the old "empty box"- but 499 empty boxes is difficult for Ebay and Paypal to ignore...
Or, perhaps, HP Touchpads will arrive...another Festivus miracle!
Scam
I'm afraid you all got scammed here, but probably Paypal will return your money. It's not that this seller is a fraud, but probably his account has been hacked. Maybe you all are very lucky, but normally nothing branded comes cheaper from China.
I live in China and recently bought my TP on the Chinese Ebay clone Taobao.com, I payed 250 USD for the 16G version..
Funny thing is it was originally send from Shanghai (I can see that on the package, HP Export zone Shanghai, not sure where it was produced in China) to a buyer in Memphis USA, which bought it for 99 USD I guess. From Memphis it was probably sold through Ebay to some guy in Shanghai, possibly for 200 USD or less. This guy sold it to me on Taobao for 250 USD, which is still a very decent price if I compare to other tablets on the market. What a world..

i received a tracking number the first day, but it hasnt been updated. Also the seller account has been closed. I will wait a couple of day to see if theres any activity on the tracking, then i will put up a claim with paypal.
Solved
So, Ebay gave me my money back asap; but today I received a little package that contained a chinese trinket (rather than 3 tablet computers). Three cheers to Ebay for getting it right immediately...

Buying T813

Been waiting for the s3 to come out but the price is in my view too steep (£599) so my plan was to get the T813 but it seems impossible to buy it in the UK except via Amazon. However i am reluctant to buy something this expensive from a 3rd party reseller there. Has anyone seen it sold by some more reputable seller?

I got mine Open Box on eBay for $50 less than the going rate at the time, however I saw no signs of it ever having been touched. Original factory seals were in place and it came with a 1 year parts and labor warranty, and a 60 day full refund policy both from the seller. It is now available from them for $319.99. I have had it for about four months and have never been happier with a tablet.
They shipped it immediately (free shipping) and I had it four days from the purchase date. If you are interested shoot me a PM and I will send you the info.

Thanks for the info. Can't find the store on eBay in the UK.
My main concerns about buying something like this from someone on ebay/amazing marketplace is that I'll be hung and dry if it is a problem with it.

I get that. I feel the same way, so I researched for a couple of weeks, reading feedbacks, comparing with other sales. The warranty and return policy they offer was a big selling point for me and they have a 99.7% positive feedback rating in 263396 feedbacks.
Purchased from argos
Just bought the s2 t813 from argos. Advertised as t810 but when checked in store it was the newer version. £339 if that helps.
