I'm selling my Galaxy S, purchased in August last year. It's completely off contract and fully unlocked. The phone is in great shape as I've had a case on it the entire time I've owned it. You'll get the original packaging, phone, 2 batteries, usb cable, charge cable, battery charging case, 3 cases (1 blue and 1 black soft case and 1 lime green hard case). I can show you my original receipt to verify it's off-contract and most certainly NOT stolen or found. I don't have the original headphones anymore as they found their way into my laundry machine (oops) but it accepts any standard headphones anyway, you can also pickup the official Samsung one's anywhere quite cheap. The software has been upgraded to 2.2.1. There are no marks or blemishes on the screen. I can throw in a few screen protectors as well but they're really not needed as the phone uses gorilla glass. You can search the internet for reviews on the device, mine is the Korean version originally sold through SK. As a media player it plays just about every format (even MKV!) and functions as a usb hard drive, this is a HUGE advantage over the iphone which makes it a superior media player.

The reason I'm selling is that I'm going to be picking up a Galaxy S II (I just can't resist). I can demonstrate it's unlocked by throwing in a Canadian (Rogers) GSM sim card as well. I'm looking to unload it early next week. I'm just waiting on my Galaxy II order to go through and would like a day to make sure I transfer everything over.

PM if you're serious about purchasing.

450,000 OBO

Since a few have asked, I'm in Seoul right next to Gangnam station but can meet pretty much anywhere in the city. 450,000 is NOT final.

A mate of mine just got a Galaxy S with everything for 300,000! And I see them routinely going used for 350,000. You're starting high at 450,000 to come down big, right??

routinely where??
there are like two posts on Craiglist, both at 450-500k and this guy is offering OBO option, so you can bargain

Galaxy S is still an amazing phone and if someone managed to get it for 300 000, he or she got REALLY REALLY lucky

without a contract, 400-450k I think is a good price for the phone

Yes, and they're overpricing them, either they're pricing them out, or they're doing it deliberately like the op here, to have the settled final price seem like a good deal at... whatever it ends up being.

I think I even saw the OP post in another thread that he would be happy with 350-400, which is reasonable for both parties. 450's a bit high, 350-375 should be the settled line... and I agree, 300 was a great deal.

I second this. Have never seen them at this "routine" price of 350,000.

Great phone, solid deal.

I wouldn't say "routinely". But I read 2 separate ads on CL of 300k (before froyo and only a 24 hour or less ad), and 350k (I think a month ago or so). All the rest are 400 something to 500 something or "take over my contract 'cause I bought one and didn't know I'm leaving in 3 days (exag.)"

Sorry for wandering away from my own thread. My Galaxy S II was late on arrival, I'm picking it up tonight.

I have received some offers over 400,000 and of course the usual low-ballers who I ignore. I will change the asking price to 425,000 and am able to sell it as of tomorrow (need tonight to get everything transferred over and to make sure the new hardware is running fine). I've also had a few people that responded to my craigslist post tell me they ended up buying from others at prices of 385,000, 420,000 and 430,000, so I don't think my pricing is out of line at all.

I'll also be including some nice aftermarket in-ear phones that also double as a headset for the Galaxy S, I was planning on using them with the new phone but I feel it would be incomplete not to include a headset.

Seriously. Stop ur BS. If any1 willing to pay u over 400,000won u won't have to post on craigslist for 425,000won.
Unless u r referring to buyer who wants you to ship ur phone to Nigeria

I wish I could show you my gmail account which is littered with offers and a few are over 400,000. Why don't you also check out some Korean boards and see what they're paying for them used here. You'll find that you're quite the dumbass for sticking your neck into someone elses business and being completely full of shite. 400,000 or so is the going rate for these used. Maybe you're just jealous because I'm rocking a Galaxy S 2 now? I just want what's fair for a phone that I babied and is pretty much like new and still has original warranty left.

Anyway, I think I've found my buyer, seems like a nice guy and willing to pay full asking price (from CL). I'll remove the listing if it goes through on Sat. I dropped the price to be fair. As soon as you list for 400,000 you get nothing but people expecting to pay 350,000, no way I'm letting them rip me off that much. I've sold enough old gear (1st gen iphone, bb curve and bold to name a few) off of CL to know not how to get anally raped thank you.

Enough bickering about the price. If both parties agree to price, who are we to intervene?

Anyways, here is my 2 cents
http://dmall.danawa.com/sale/saleView.php?nSaleSeq=3139919&nCateC1=224&nCateC2=225&nCateC3=1697&nCateC4=0

On that note, I'll give you 350,000
