Picking my Nexus 10 from Craigslist - Nexus 10 General

OK, so basically I picked up a new Nexus 10 from Walmart a week back to try out if I liked it (I already have a Nexus 4 and I loved it, wanted to replicate that feeling with a tablet). Needless to say yes I did like it although the cost was a bit prohibitive for me.
I have decided that it will go back now, and have found a deal on CL for 350 USD for 16 GB variant. The device was brought in January but the owner has lost the receipt.
Now, if I decide to pick it up, would I be able to return it to Google/Samsung if there are some problems with it? Is the original receipt required for RMA?
The lack of receipt is the only thing holding me back, and I would be glad if someone has such experience where they have successfully RMA their device in the US without needing the original receipt or purchase date.
Please let me know, thanks!

Google won't deal with you since you didn't buy it from them, you will have to go through Samsung warranty support which might require proof of purchase, but it doesn't seem like it.

Samsung has never asked me for receipt, just purchase date and vendor. But you'd not be able to go through Google or any other retailer, 100% sure.

All you need to do is register it at samsungs website with the original purchase date and they should honor the warranty. Like the others said, Google Play Store will not though

Damn, it looks like the seller doesn't remember the purchase date either, only remembers buying it for girlfriend in January.
Should I stay away?

I would just buy a new one form Google play since it costs only 50 more dollars

But then you have tax and shipping so its about $100 more which I think is what the op is concerned about
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk HD

Oh I didn't think about that well you could use amazon they have free shipping for products of higher value. I got mine from Sam's club but they only have the 32 gb varient. But I wouldn't buy it from them if they don't know when it was bought because if you have a problem with it... no help from samsung

Not worth the risk, not even close...

I didn't risk it, I paid the extra cash including tax just to have that safety net. Or look in eBay.

If you do not have the receipt, many companies will still honor the warranty of the item provided the item is still within the warranty period. In this case, the standard warranty of Nexus 10 is one year and this item is only out about 6-7 months? So worst case scenario, you have about 5-6 months left on the warranty.
However judging on how high the return rate is on this tablet, I would also say it is not worth the risk. My rule is you can almost buy anything from Craigslist but electronics.

Samsung told me if you don't have the original purchase dat,e the warranty runs through December 18th, 2013 (for mine) or the manufacturing date for any other

Well I lucked up yesterday and bought one off craigslist, 32gig new in box sealed for $300.

Looks like it will be in UK Currys PCWorld on 13th

Just searching twitter and I came across these two posts from Currys PC World confirming they will be selling the Nexus 10 on the 13th in the UK.
Good news!
Not sure if we'll be getting more official news nearer the date. Was the Nexus 7 "officially" announced as an in-store release?

Great news! It'll still retail at £389 though right?
Hey guys, I work in Currys/PC world.
The big hint towards us getting the Nexus 10 was when they announced a partnership with Samsung to build a dedicated area for Samsung products. And it looks like Nexus 10 might be one of the main items
Edit: We normally get the Products in days before release, so I'll let you know if/when we do get it. Can't wait to use it and get it out on display
Converted 95% of the customer who came to buy an iPad from me to either Samsung Note 10.1 or Nexus 7's. Now it's time for Nexus 10 to take the limelight :laugh:
Great , Off to Currys then for me on the 13th!
It also says they have a 28 say repair policy for faulty units. That sounds less attractive. Is any other real store stocking them?

Surely its a 28 day exchange policy? Better than Google's 15 day return period.

21 day return policy according to their website. Any faults and they'll replace it straight away.

Good news, means I can test for light bleed myself, Just hope they don't increase the price at all. I much prefer to buy from shops and walk away with it in my hand.
I'm hoping to find out when argos get it. Got some vouchers I want to make use of.
Funny they announced the nexus 7 32gb before they should have, yet no ones heard of a n10, even though it's been revealed ?

I will pick it up from Curry's on the 13th if the price is no more expensive than direct from Google.
Do we know if it will be the 16 or 32GB version?

PC World/ Currys needs more employers like you, I was a big customer of theirs, but now a days their staff is just horrible, they know very little about their products and its just awkward talking to them, even tho PC World prices can be decent.
Will you stock the 16Gb as well?

At a guess it will be the 32gb model only. Same as Walmart.
Probably be priced at £389.99 so only a little more expensive than buying from the Play store.

Not at the price google are selling it for, apparantly LG have recommended a retail price of £599, and all the UK phone shops will take advantage of that, the bets are google are selling them at cost or less than cost to get market share.

They'll never sell that for £600 when you can get it direct from google for 320. That's just stupid.

That can't be true. The phone companies will be selling it for free on contract. Yes the price maybe higher then the play store but it's masked in a 24 month contract.
There's no way it'll be £599 anywhere though. That's nearly £100 more than the S3 was at launch.

GSIII To Note 2

So I'm curious, am I the only one nuts enough to considering selling his GS3(probably on ebay) for the 4-500 price to get Note 2?
I've recently gotten an itch for a tablet but don't see the need of one when I've got my phone and really think this would be a nice in between for the two.
Lots of people have just look through the other threads and you'll see a ton.

I'm actually a salesman for a VZW Retailer, I'm waiting to see how the rest of this week goes before I make the decision.
sold my s3 yesterday for $400 - gnote on the way. UR not crazy
Definitely the right choice. The pen changes everything…if you like retouching and doodling
Gs3 sold last month and have been using this stupid iPhone ever since preordering.
I am also definitely selling my s3 for the Note 2. My only problem is i don't have a back up phone and have to buy the Note first before I can sell my s3. How are you guys selling it for $400. Mine is absolutely mint and everyone on CL low balls at around $300. If i can get $350 i would be happy since i bought mine at full retail.

Price it for $395 with many CLEAR pics. Mine sold in 15 minutes with the guy coming to me. Also, if you need an interim phone, buy a thunderbolt and a sim adapter. I paid $50 for my thunderbolt on CL. Many are going for $80 - $120. You can just resell it when done and lose your $3.00 sim adapter investment
If you sell on ebay be sure to make it known that you are verifying the condition of the device with photos and video before shipment. That will discourage the scammers from trying to swap with a busted device and then sticking you for the money. Or even better when they break it within the first day and try to claim you sent a a damaged item.
Otherwise you can get burned because ebay will usually side with the buyer on any dispute. I learned the hard way with a previous smart phone sale. Took a month to get my money back along with a busted phone.

Just know that on eBay you have a lot more in fees, even if it sells for $50 more on eBay most of that will end up being paid to eBay/PayPal anyways.

I sold a Nexus 7 16gig for $120 and a iPhone 4 for $120 yesterday but I was impatient. If I was smart I would have off loaded that Nexus 7 a few months ago. Still a nice tablet hands down but I want to focus on one device and that's the Note 2.

Wheres the best place i can buy this phone? off contract?

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)

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.

I contacted Best Buy (888#) and requested the $50 credit. I purchased my LG E970on 3/2/12 for $99 and was in the 15 day Price Match by one day. The rep put me on hold, came back, took down my info and said that I would get a call back letting me know the status of my credit. I was concerned that I would not hear back from BB and he said that I would get a return call within 48 hours. Needless to say, no call back so I called back and was told that BB no longer offers the Price Match on contracted cell phone as of 3/2/12. Great. I went back and read the small print details and yup, it does say that. Argh.
Going to go into store tomorrow and talk to a manager and push for the $50.00 Heck for $50.00 I would have returned the darn thing and bought it again. I can play their game too. I will add that I did not receive a call back as promised.
Did you go to an actual best buy store, or best buy Mobile? I went to the mobile store at my local mall and they price matched and gave me a $50 credit, no questions asked.

Interesting, I called AT&T to see about getting an early upgrade (March instead of May). I was told that they could only do 30 days early. My brother had a similar convo with them about a year ago. Seems like it's luck of the draw on who you actually get on the call.

[Q] [US] Where is the best place to get the Nexus 9?

Do you think I'll get it faster if I get it on Google Play instead of Amazon?
Not sure to be honest. But if you are paying $9.99 from play store Amazon in the other hand will upgrade your delivery for that price, so i guess Amazon would be quicker.
I paid £3.33 for first class delivery shipping 1 to 2 days latest ETA 5th November.
I paid 3.99 for overnight shipping from amazon so you can't beat that.
buy from amazon if you want to get it a bit faster, but any warranty exchanges/rma will go through htc for any third party purchase.
Purchasing from google play means that google will handle alll warranty claims/rma. They will 2 day ship the NEW device, and you ship back the defective device back to google.

I second this-- I fully expect Amazon to be faster, however I had such a great experience with Google customer support for my N5 that the additional shipping charges/potential wait time are worth it to me.
In case you're curious: In September, Google started offering free, no questions asked replacements for N5 owners. I had about two weeks left of the one year warranty by the time I heard about it, and they took back my cracked N5 with zero hassle. I received the replacement overnight, and they released the hold on my credit card the day after I shipped back the broken device. This courtesy replacement service was ONLY available to play store customers.

+1. The same reason I went with Google. Their customer service can't be beat. If you don't go with Google you'll probably have to deal with HTC for warranty. That was the scenario with the n5

Ya my n7 I bought at staples had problems and it was a nightmare dealing Asus directly. My n5 bought directly from the play store was a breeze to RMA. Worth a day and $10 to me if needed.
If you live in Canada and buy the N9, is the price shown the Canadian price? As well, does it ship from Canada or do I have to pay duties as well?
Otherwise I may order from Amazon Canada to get around duties.
Google play, Best Buy, Amazon, HTC all charge tax in California
Is there a place to order from in order to avoid tax in California?
I haven't pre-ordered yet in hopes that I can just pick one up from my local Best Buy on the morning of the 3rd. Am I fooling myself thinking that they'll actually be in the stores on that day?

Same boat for NY. I'm more than likely just going to wait for some other vendor to pop up later that doesn't want to hit me for an extra 40 bucks for tax. Maybe an eBay vendor selling sealed.
I can't see nexus 9 in shops on the 3rd, that's why I ordered from Google play.
Hmm do you think Newegg is good? I don't have to pay tax with them.

My experience with NewEgg as a merchant has been positive, they're a serious online retailer (granted, it's being a long time since I purchase something from them).
