Anyone bought G-note from ebay?

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] To return or not to return?

I just received by Z3 Compact today but due to the vast reports of glass cracking and buying the phone on sim free with the intention to sell it after 12-24 months, I really don't know whether I should take the risk and keep it since their are many reports of the glass cracking by itself. It's a big shame because I had so much hope for this phone and their are lots of things i love about it such as the following:
Audio huge step up from G2
Feels premium in the hand compared to the G2.
I was impressed with screen detail that I was fooled into thinking it was HD.
Some bad points I notice just from first use:
Screen vibrates when volume high
Icons and text seems to be slightly squeezed in the menu
im worried about all the reports of glass cracking
I've really never been an iPhone fan and prefer a less than 5 inch device so if I return I really don't know where to go from here. I guess there's the Galaxy Alpha but I really don't want to go back to samsung if I could help it (had a galaxy s2 before and it stopped working after 24 months). So if the Z3 Compact is not to be due to manufacturer flaw with glass then where do I go from here? I already sold my G2 and need a phone asap.

There are a few reports of glass cracking by itself as opposed to tens oder hundreds of thousands of units sold, and it seems a bunch of people just jumped the train and claimed theirs did too while it looks like they dropped the phone from the pattern of their cracks, eventually because of the slippery backside.

So a bunch of people are lying? I think you should look a little further afield than just this forum. There are so many reports now from multiple sources now that it's becoming hard to deny there is a major flaw with the glass of this phone. From the sound of things if you buy this phone its just a matter of time before your glass will crack. And since I bought my z3c with cash that's a risk I'm not willing to take.

Even if most of the reports were legit, the likeliness of being affected is still negligible considering the amount of units sold. And even if so, most of the cases seem to have been covered by Sony's warranty so far.

Definitely keep it. It's the best non-huge phone on the market right now.
And it IS HD Just not Full HD, but you don't need full HD below 5".

That was my mantra as well for weeks before buying this phone, but what's the point having the best non-huge phone if it's only going to break?
P.S Do you own one?

I would say to keep it. Like the others have said, the number of reports around the glass cracking are very small compared to the number of units sold. Ultimately, it's your decision, but I've been very happy with mine and my suggestion would be for you to keep it.

You can't tell whether it's going to break, and if it does you'll get it repaired under warranty.
It may look horribly, but if all those cracked phones are going to be fixed/exchanged then there is no big deal just few days without it.
Otherwise the phone is fantastic.

that's a pretty big deal. not everyone has a backup phone and they don't cross ship like dell. you can't just pop into a sony store for instant refurb replacement like you can with apple, either. microsoft stores are also pretty great about replacing their lumias.
i bought mine with amex, so i have 90 days to evaluate whether or not it will break. if it does, i won't even bother going through sony, judging from the poor customer service and finger pointing people have been mentioning

Do you even own one? There are hundreds reports online now it's not just "a hand full of people" anymore.

There's no telling whether you have a defective unit but as others say, those with the fault are heard louder than those who haven't experienced issues. If you do want to resell then I strongly suggest you buy a case and glass screen protector, both of which can be obtained for reasonable prices.
I agree with your first bad point, but then 99% of the time I listen through headphones, your second is because of the smaller resolution of the Z3C vs the LG G2 (I know I have both) which are both set to the same dpi (320).

I was so disturbed about the 'self breaking' glass reports that I had a dream last night that my phone's front screen was all cracked.
Woke up and it was fine. I love this phone

[Q] Reselling a Nexus 6.

So i'm thinking about selling my nexus 6 on a facebook community buy/sell.
I usually give my devices to my family, but its not needed this time so i'm after some opinions on how much i should be asking for.
The phone is 3-4 months old, i lost the reciept recently but its around somewhere... 32GB, bought outright, so unlocked from any network, in perfect working condition. etc, there's just like maybe, 5 to 6 tiny little dints in the screen from keys in pocket :/. You literally cannot feel them, nor see them when the screen is on and takes certain angles to see them when screen is off (thats the only thing wrong with the phone, which i plan on telling on my post). I paid $876 AUD, do you think i could ask for $400-$500?
Opinions? If you were going to resell, what circumstances would you lower the price for & if you were i, how much would you ask for?

amazon is selling the n6 brand new at 399 for the 32gb version, so your $400-500 would be considered a joke, especially a device with a little bit of damage.

@rhystagram,
Your best bet is to go to Swappa.com and look at recent sold prices.

But Amazon is still selling it for much cheaper brand new. Most prospective buyers will look on Amazon first to see what prices are for both new and used.
What local retailers sell them for brand new means nothing when it can easily be attained somewhere else for a cheaper price.
I normally give people hell on those Facebook groups for asking entirely too much for a phone or tablet. Especially if it is used with even the slightest damage.
For instance, a woman was trying to sell a Droid Maxx for almost $400 USD claiming it was new and never pulled from the box, but her pictures clearly showed otherwise because of the damage on the phone and the fact that it didn't have any of the factory protective film on it anymore. The device in mint condition used only goes for about $150.
Basically, it's better to be fair instead of thinking you can charge top dollar for it. Much less troubles in the long run.
Good luck.

I'm sorry, but how is pointing out the proper process for preparing a Nexus 6 for resale completely missing the point? I'm trying to help you avoid future headaches. ???
If you're looking for resale prices, check completed listings on swappa or eBay.

I agree with checking eBay or local buy/sell/trade sites for prices to get a feel for how much it will cost.
Note this, however: Amazon Australia does not sell the Nexus 6 that I can find. It is true that there was a Prime Day deal today in the states for it (pretty sure it's over now), but Prime Day is only for the US site, not for the international versions.
Plus $500 AUD is $368 ish USD.

Mate. Put it on Gumtree. You could likely get around 400 to 450 bucks for it if it is indeed in the condition you say.

Zuk Deal... Too good to be true??

Hey guys, I just ordered myself a Grey Zuk Z1 from AliExpress seller called LuckyDog :silly:
It's $209 including shipping to New Zealand. Looks too good to be true but I did it anyway. The seller has only started selling on AEx earlier this year but he has 100% positive feedback.
I am waiting and not very sure what to expect. Everything in the ad looks legit.
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Orig...E-WCDMA-CDMA-Smartphone-Dual/32644824011.html
Take a look and let me know.
I have also decided to mod the skin myself instead of the custom skins rip offs being sold around. I got a car Decal Vinyl for about 90 cents and it's going to look mean as.

Anybody?

its kinda too late to give you an advice, isnt it?
do you want to hear that this is a safe and good buy?
i would not buy a phone frome a seller with only 300 sells ... these sells may be fake?
i bought mine from amazon shipped directly from ZUK and did so because i want to have a good service in case the homebutton breaks, which will happen sometime.
i hope your device will arrive at your place and youre happy with the device

Actually it makes sense to do so, as I can cancel my order anytime before it ships. So I can still do so. How do you spot a fake Zuk, actually why would you fake something that is already very cheap?
I won't worry too much about warranty, I can fix things myself (hardware) when it gets to that as shipping things around from NZ is very expensive. Not to mention that with me rooting the device, I do not expect warranty anyway. Plus, people has been having troubles with ZUK's support so adds up to me not relying too much on warranty.
You are making a compelling argument nevertheless and the point you have raised which I agree with is regarding the product being fake.

i dont get it why you ask for opinions if you defend your position anyway
i just stated i would never buy a phone from a new seller especially at aliexpress. i rooted my device after using it for 2 months, now 7 months after buying it the home buttons feels sluggish.
i didnt pressed it for 5 months because i used mrcoldbirds rom and since a few weeks the nuclearrom but youre right, if you want to tear the phone apart you can fix it by yourself
no more answers from me

I didn't mean to sound defensive. You're right there.
Maybe I should break it down to questions, makes it easy to stay on track
- Has there been any reports of bad or fake Zuk Z1?
- Has there been any complaints of Zuk Z1 devices bought of AliExpress
- Any cheap alternatives to buy the phone for someone in New Zealand?
Thanks heaps for your input and time, feeling a bit ashamed for not thanking you earlier.
