Hey guys, just sold my one x today and ready to get an optimus g. So excited and cant wait. Where is the best place for me to get one off contract? ebay? craigslist?
I got mine off fleaBay, but I can't say where the best place to get one is. If you already have service with AT&T, it might be worth it to buy it unsubsidized through them. That way you get both LG's warranty as well as AT&T's. Amazon didn't have any for sale off contract (not sure if they do now yet) but if they did, that's the route I'd have gone. Buying through eBay can be sketchy. I got lucky to get a good unit (knock on wood) from a seller with a super high positive feedback percentage. It's still a risk though. If it goes belly up, I have to try to get LG to honor the warranty, which might be a struggle. Craigslist is strickly "as is" with no hope of any remedy other than buying a new one if anything happens to it, but if you get a good enough of a deal it may be worth the risk.
TL;DR: It all depends on how much you're willing to pay for peace of mind.
picked mine up sunday for 487 including tax at the att store. includes warranty and return period, if I was an idiot it would also include the option to insure the phone. mostly outperforms my tegra3 device with two cores tied behind its back (eco mode)
Aftermarket in Mexico

I got mine off of eBay too. LG requires a proof of purchase for any repairs so I am SOL warranty wise.
I got mine off Ebay for $395- NEW. Look for them you eventually will find a great deal!

Thanks for your replies guys, i think ebay is my best bet. Im willing to spend up to 400 max, not to say it isnt worth more cause im pretty sure it is, but with the nexus 4 back in stock on the play store, its either an optimus g at 400 bucks or less ( the optimus is the one i really want) or i just get another nexus 4. Thanks guys!
Picked up mine brand new off of craigslist from a guy who gets a hefty discount for 175. It was from best buy.
I got a good deal on mine off of Craigslist. Traded my skyrocket plus 150$ I bought my skyrocket on Craigslist for 200. So basically add that 200 and 150 so I paid 350 for it. Not to bad really.

Nope. In emporia Ks. Lol. Can pay by PayPal or whatever u would like. Any unsecured payments like money order or whatever I would provide tracking info before you have to send payment. This is a hundred percent legit. Got good feedback on eBay and some other forums as well.

I'm sure many of you have done this to subsidize the cost of our snazzy new beast.
I have the original box (that awful, terrible egg carton thing) and owner's manual. The device itself is a refurb I got from insurance, since my original Evo4G was stolen.
My biggest question is: since it is rooted, is it best to offer it that way? I guess my question is whether there's any market value to it being already rooted and thus getting more from an eBay auction (unless theres a better alternative to eBay that anyone knows). Or maybe advertise the option of: I can send it to you rooted or if you don't want it that way, I can unroot it for you.
If someone wants it rooted, basically I just need to do a full wipe and flash a rooted stock ROM. If they want it unrooted, I believe I need to unroot first, flash a stock ROM, then turn S-ON (might have that in the wrong order).
I hope this is an appropriate thread for this forum (instead of the Evo4G one) as it would be helpful to other people looking for a way to obtain the Evo3D.
My suggestion to you is Craigslist. Sold my hero a month ago for 100 bucks

I sold mine on Ebay for 270 each
Hello,
I sold my 4G for 300 Dollars on Craigslist. I did happen to get a Replacement the week before I listed it. While my original 4G was Rooted, I held off Rooting this one, but did not do the GB Update so that the Buyer would have the option of Rooting or not doing so.
My Upgrade was not supposed to be until September, but I pleaded with Retention and they reset my eligibility. This happened the day after my Refurbished 4G arrived.
I threw in 2 Otterbox Defender Cases, an HTC HDMI Dock, and pointed out the 4G was a 004 Version and was only a week old. I actually received multiple offers and ended up selling to a guy who lives on the same Barrier Island that I do.
I would think it would be best if you could get it back to S-ON and not disclose that it has been Rooted unless someone asks. You could even offer to Root and customize the 4G for the prospective Buyer. It really helped for me as the guy who purchased mine wanted me to Root it, but when he went to Sprint to Activate it he walked out with 2 3VO's instead. I am now trying to help him sell the 4G. I have gotten a few offers around 250, but he wants 300 and I have not exactly killed myself trying to sell it.
Also, I think that sometimes the 4G's Sprint sends out as Recertified are actually new Phones. The one I got sure seemed that way and again was 004.
It helped greatly I sold mine before the 3D's Release. The marketplace has changed since then. There is another Website that offers more than 150 if the 4G is in pristine condition as well. The name eludes me.
Cheers,
JJ
Sprint gives you $150.

I sold my 4G on craigslist for $200 about 90 minutes after I had it posted.
Well, it's VERY EASY.
Sprint will pay $150.00 for your evo 4G in account or store credit. You can either take your EVO 4G to a sprint store, or do it online and ship it to them:
http://www.sprintbuyback.com/
Just did it today at the store and paid only $49.99 for my new 3D!
If it is in good enough shape, I would sell it on eBay... considering I sold a refurbished one with a deadspot on the screen for $200 cash (Fully informed description I might add) You could likely get $250-300 for one in real good condition.
Good luck!!!
Craigslist is probably your best bet if you feel safe using it. Followed by ebay... You could also sell it on these forums which is the choice I took mostly because I wanted my phone to go to someone in the community.

RadioShack gave me $167 on trade for the 3VO. I also traded in my Hero for $50 so had a store credit. I had the boxes and the chargers for both.
I posted my 4G on swappa.com for $250 and it was sold within 2 days. The cool thing is that doesn't matter if you're rooted, people there seem to prefer it. Also if someone is interested, they have the option to buy your phone right away via paypal.

Never heard of it. Is it any good?
We sold ours on Craigslist for $225 each. $0 for the upgrade. Been doing this for YEARS. Depending on how rapidly you are upgrading you can sell them and profit from the sale.

From what I hear, yes. If I remember right, its specifically for selling/trading android phones.
Sold mine for 230 on craigslist. Might have gotten more on ebay, but it'd barely be with it after dealing with the fees and the scammers.
Sold my Verizon iPhone on craigs. Had 10 offers by morning. Sprint would have bought for $220. So there's always a fallback if you want quick cash. Assume EVO 4g should have similar results.

Just wondering what everyone's preference is.
I jumped on the $49 refurbish Galaxy S3 deal to upgrade my wife's iPhone 4.
I may look into upgrading to Note 2 as soon as a refurbish is available (3-6 months?).
Android devices get AWFUL resale value (my Note 1 is worth less than my wife's iPhone 4) from online sites like Amazon/Gazelle, so only way to go is Craigslist or Ebay. I am in New York City so just wondering what is everyone's experience? Her phone is in great condition but power port and home button are not as reliable as it once was (both typical issues for iPhone's).
In my experiences you're going to get the top dollar amount from E-Bay selling your device unlocked. But then you have to deal with shipping, feedback, eBay's %, etc.
I strictly use Craigslist. I'm usually flexible on the price. Plus, start a little high and leave room to barter. Everyone likes to barter. It makes them feel like they got a better deal. You also don't have to wait while your auction ends. You get cash as soon as you sell.
Now, this all depends on the device you're selling. A Note1: Craigslist. Much more common device and not as high of a price tag. A Note2: EBay. Catch the big market of people willing to drop $600-800 for a device. You'll rarely find that on CList.

Both are good place to buy phone from provided the seller can put it in writing that the device will not be reported stolen, insurance claim or lost.
The device may work for several months or so, then suddenly it won't. The seller has then reported it either stolen lost or claimed insurance on it, the IMEI or ESN is then block by the carrier. Buyer beware.
I prefer eBay simply because you can get a good idea of who you are buying from or selling to by their feedback scores. You can require buyers have certain scores or higher as well as require immediate payment through PayPal. You can charge them shipping. One con is you get hit with a seller fee of around 9% if it sells. But craigslist people are more likely to try to haggle your selling price.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I liked ebay till they got greedy between their fees and paypal fees, your losing at least 25% of your profit. You have to raise your price to offset them and nobody will buy.
The last 2 devices I sold weren't touched on ebay. Must have relisted for free 6 times. I put them on craigslist and they sold in 3 weeks. I got $275 for a 2 year old iphone 3gs-32gb/wht (mint) and $275 for my 6 month infuse (mint). I would not have gotten nearly this much profit on ebay. And Craigslist is free.
Beware of people wanting to pay via paypal and have you ship when selling on craigslist. Usually a scam.
Deal face to face and cash only. Sell local.

I dont think that would help. What they do (spammers) is send you an email from one address and the reply is to another. And then the spamming begins. "I like to arrange for payment and shipment and I am going to pay you x dollars more than your asking price blah blah blah. Or its a simple as "is this item still available for sale" seems innocent but nope. they also put the signature as if they are emailing from a cell phone. Smart F ers.....

One thing I've noticed on eBay when selling my smart phones is that buyers will refuse to pay. One time the guy was bidding on multiple phones and thought he paid to much for mine. Another I never received any communication from the buyer.
I was able to realist but what a hassle and time consumer. Then of course you have the eBay and PayPal fees.

I listed my og note on Craigslist, eBay and Amazon. Ebay is not the place to sell of you want to get the most money for your sale and there are many people that buy and no pay so it becomes a hassle and time wasting. Amazon is the safest one if you want to sell something quick (given a competitive price) I had a guy purchase it for 420 but after shipping and fees I was going to make 375$. I had my listing on Craigslist until the last day when I had to ship it and I received a text from a guy interested on it. We met up 400$ after (made sure real bills) I went home and canceled the Amazon order. Lollll Craigslist is all about patience and knowing when to lower your price as time passes. Hence I started to sell my note for 470 plus accessories lolll

I've bought and sold ten devices on CL in the past couple years. Its a great place to get good deals.
I never use eBay anymore really. Not like I used to.
Three times on eBay I have had an auction go through the roof on price within the first couple of hours only to find at the end of the auction that the "buyer" was a fake. I have no proof, but I think other sellers use throwaway email addresses to artificially boost the price on competing auctions. Case in point: I listed my wife's old Galaxy Skyrocket when I bought her the refurb Note for $49. Within 2 hours of the listing start (at $80), the auction hit $719. Seven days later at the end of the auction, no payment. After filing the complaint, no word from eBay. And they are STILL going to charge me the listing fee even though the buyer was bogus.
Then on the Skyrocket I tried Craig's List. Four Western Union and PayPal offers for twice as much as I was asking for within the first hour if I would "ship immediately". One even sent a bogus "Western Union" payment email without knowing my name, email address or virtually anything else. I updated the add to say "local pickup only" and next came the "please drive the phone to my location as I don't own a car" messages. The ad lived for a day on Craig's List before I pulled it.
Years ago, I sold a couple of things on Amazon's auction site. I am not sure how to do that today, and even if I did (assuming they still do that), I am not sure I would get much because I am not convinced there is the same traffic there.
I went to Gazelle. They sent me a box and when they got it, a $125 e-gift card from Amazon. I probably could have had more selling it myself, but who has the time to deal with the BS? I guess I was lucky in that Gazelle saw value in what I had. I have a Asus Transformer TF700T that I am about to sell, and they aren't interested in that. And I hate the thought of having to use either Craig's List or eBay, but I am not sure there is another way.
I sold one of my old CB radio mics on eBay, as is, no returns, because it was old, and I can't control how the buyer hooks it up. The buyer complained to eBay it didn't work, they MADE me return his money, then a couple weeks later I got a different mic back. You have to be extremely careful how you word your ad, I try not to use them anymore.
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the XDA Marketplace. I've bought and sold many devices on both Ebay and CL but I have gotten the best results lately right here. No fees, cool community, and the ability to negotiate trades is great! I run an electronics store and I'm going to start selling some of our clearance merchandise on the market if it doesn't break any rules.

I just wanted to post this for all of you considering getting a new phone on AT&T, such as the One, S4, Blackberry, etc. According to what I have read, it looks like AT&T is starting a promotion tomorrow that will give an instant $100 or more credit toward a new phone of your choice when you trade in your old working smart phone, ( 3 years old or less). This may help in the decision making process for many people.

well i already traded in a phone directly through HTC for $100 and its gonna be for a visa prepaid card. plus you have to do this in store and they dont have the 64GB version available at stores. i guess its a good deal for those that missed the cutoff for the HTC deal though.

I'd rather go on swappa or any number of other sites and sell my old kit for a lot more than $100 unless it's an old phone. Just about any decent, present day smartphone is worth more than $100. They're just catering to those who either don't know there options or don't want to deal with trying to sell on their own.

From everything I've been told, it's $100 minimum.
Just wanted to say, bought my One two weeks today and went back to the AT&T store to see if I could get in on this promo. Not a problem at all, traded in an old HTC Inspire 4G and they gave me the $100 credit, which by request, they applied to my bill. What's great is, average selling price on eBay for the Inspire is around $80.

i just told them that i see that you guys have the trade in promotion going that you get 100 dollars for trading in your used phone. i actually read this thread wrong which is why i called inthe first place lol. because i thought they give you 100 dollars on top of what they already give you. the wife traded her iphone 5 and i traded a nexus 4. the rep gave me a 200 dollar credit no questions asked. probably because she can't see on her system exactly what phones we traded in.
I am receiving a free Moto X, if I like it, which I figure I may due to the size, on screen buttons, battery life I will probably sell my LGOG on Swappa.
The issue is that there aren't any Optimus Gs up there, and I am not quiet sure what to sell it for. I figure I should ask here and find out if anyone else has a recommended price range.
The phone is on AT&T and still sim locked, I may try to get it sim unlocked which may help raise the price. The phone is in great shape with no scratches or dings. Have Charger, Universal Car Mount, and Case for it
How did you get a free moto x??? And anyways, with all that... I'd ask probably 350?

I was thinking about getting a new Nexus 7. So I would even be willing to trade straight up.
Any other sites I should look at selling the phone on?

I feel that I will get a better price selling directly to someone instead of trying to sell to some service. AT&T will give me $80 and BestBuy will give me $85. I feel its a complete ripoff

It is. Sell on Swappa, Craigslist, or eBay for the most amount of money.
EDIT: I may have lied. Average price for the LGOG is about 227 selling. So lets say with a case, and car mount... 275. With unlocked, maybe 300. I would list it at 250 or 275 though.

I was thinking $250 as well, it would sell and only cost me a bit to get a new Nexus 7 ordered
Exactly Best of luck!

Holy crap... Best buy is only doing $85 for trade in on LGOG? I got $150 for my SGS2 i777 when I traded it in FOR the LGOG. In February. Damn.

I just got back from Best Buy and was hoping first I could get them to match the $249 price on Radio Shack, but she caught that when she was going through the upgrade option, but she would have matched it if I were a new customer. I was about to give up, but I thought why not ask about Amazon. So, we made it through just fine and she called over someone to approve it. It sounded like they were trying to find a way to deny it, but it ended up working. Hopefully this helps someone else. I was trying to originally go to Target, but they were out of the black ones.
If a picture or something might help someone else get that deal from Best Buy, just let me know and I will be more than happy to help out.
Thanks for the tip. My upgrade is November 1st so I'll try it then

From my experience with two different Best Buy Mobile managers they are very strict with their price match policy. I highly advise you guys go to Target and get the $250 Amazon price match.

Best Buy doesn't price match online competitors for mobile phones. It's possible to do but not required by them. So if you get the right person who is willing to bend the price matching policy then your in luck.

tried to price match here in Clermont FL no go at target as they have yet to carry the note 3 and the price for the ATT one went up to 350 which is weird. I bought mine on amazon yesterday and it said it was back ordered 8 weeks at 250 this morning I got confirmation it was shipped!!!! will arrive Monday.
I got lucky my mobile best buy store at mall price matched it to 250$
Went to best buy today to get my price match for the note 3 i bought on Oct 4th. I was kinda nervous cause of the people who said their best buy wouldnt take the amazon credit. The one I go to must just be really nice I showed her the ad and she approved it immediately without question or a call to sprint like some people had to deal with. I guess it really just depends on the person you get to help you.

I just got my best buy to match amazon after originally matching wire fly on launch day.

Yeah, it highly depends. I called my local best buy before going in and they said they wouldn't price match because their terms specifically say they won't match contract phones from online retailers like Amazon.
I tried to push my luck and just went inside the store and asked if they would price match and the guy there did it without hesitation. Awesome!
