 Posted: Sun May 01, 2011 8:12 pm Post subject: FS: Galaxy S smartphone, off contract |
 |
|
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. |
