Craigslist my friend. Bought my mint condition Moto X from someone for only $180 about two months ago that included a incase snap case(worth $30) and the Motorala skip(worth $15).

I was able to get $60 off yesterday.

Buy one from Republic Wireless for $299 every/any day.
This only works if their service works for you. And you only have 30 days to try it out. There is no call center and you are expected to use WiFi where it is available. And don't ding up the phone if you expect to get a full refund -- minus $10 shipping -- on it. (On a serious not, as opposed to most of my post here, their RMA contractor actually does look at returned phones under a lighted magnifier.)
Would you be willing to pay $5, $10, $25, or up to $40 a month for service though? Especially with no contract?
On top of that they are only rated number two in the PC Magazine poll for best carrier.
Maybe just skip it.

Bought mine about a half hour ago on the Verizon Website (at sale price).
It showed full price until I went to checkout, then gave me the sale price...
Definitely just picked on of these up. Thanks for the heads up! Discount was applied once my item was in the cart at checkout. Great buy!!
Stop in the stores and they said it was going on through october 30th. At least that's what the stores said in Columbus Ohio

Try logging out of your Verizon account. If you have a corporate discount already, for some odd reason, that overrides VZW's generic discount.

I still don't see anything past a 25% discount. Very strange. I have tried 2 computers, clearing cookies, logging in and out and I still don't see it. Maybe they do it by area? I am in Philadelphia. I'm going to try the store tomorrow.
yeah i did not know about this deal, until i went to my buddies verizon store he is a manager and told me it was %50 off he also lets me use his discount on other items. which i did not know he did
but this battery is **HUGE** its 2 of the nomal size batteries put togather, we'll thats what i think anyways. i got to buy a whole new case.
but the overall the battery is worth it. it last alot longer. my nomal battery maybe lasted me 6 hours. now i get between 12-16 hours or more. depending on my usage.
Just ordered mine. Can't wait!

Log completely out of your account and search for the item through google. Check for "Verizon DROID bionic extended battery".
Once you find it the proper listing in google (verizonwireless site) go to it and try to buy it. Keep going all the way through until checkout. Then only login when it asks you.
That worked when I ordered some accessories for my x2.

Nexus 4 on eBay

Hey guys,
Just wanted to share:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Google-Nexu...ocked-GSM-Phone-4-7-True-HD-NEW-/181030542181
I just bought one, price is lower than most of sellers, only 1 left! Hopefully I like it more than my s2! :good:
that's expensive D:
You are an idiot for purchasing that. Sorry.
I cannot buy off of Play store, or from local stores, since im from South America.
It was not a bad deal, I sold my s2 for $400 =D

A lot of people on ebay are profiting like crazy because they were able to buy like 6-7 phones. Sucks for us users that either got on the back order list or didn't get one. Google should have limited to 1-2 phones per address. If you cant buy locally then thats fine.
If I wasn't able to get mine from the play store I would have paid up to 450 for the 8 and 600 for the 16

Yea, I got a prime for it, but it is always the same. The phone I owned before my s2 was a bb torch (1st gen) which I sold for $380 and bought the s2 for $420. You'll be amazed on how much we pay for techology devices over here (Ecuador).
The s3 is around $900 atm, lol, (with contract for 1-2 years)

Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Issue as your phone being damaged or not working..I don't believe Google honors a warranty made to someone else which leaves LG meaning you would most likely be without a phone for weeks.
You have to ask yourself if out would be better to wait a week or two or pay more and take a risk. Keep in mind that when ever we buy like this from these people it only encourages them to do it more.

BS "8 available / 27 sold"
It looks like some were able to order a lot more. I think this is total BS! It would have been awesome if no one would buy one off of ebay for these ridiculous prices and let the seller be stuck with them.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Google-...0979603390?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item19d6e65bbe
WHY?
You just got ripped off buddy
500.00 on Ebay is a fair markup. You figure the phone from the Play store will be around 375.00 - 400.00 after tax and shipping. The seller will make a 100.00 to 125.00 profit.

Not even that much. You have to factor in eBay costs and PayPal costs. I recently sold a pair of ice skates and I got hit with over $40 in fees.
So you figure my 16g n4 came to me for around 400 from Google. That means in order for someone to make any profit they need to sell it for at least 450.
With that being said posting it for $500 is not unreasonable. They are making like $50-60 bucks profit. I think that's fair for the effort of posting it etc.... I loath the people selling it for $800+ however. Just my .02

Haha. I got my HTC one for 200. Then seen the ad that was for 99 with free beats speakers and I called and they refunded 100 dollars and sent me the beats speakers. And it turns out it was an offer by mistake lol but I got the phone for 99 and sold the beats pill for 170 on Amazon so I made money

Galaxy Gear 25% off at T-Mobile

Only works for the ones in stock so for now it'll only work with the Oatmeal Beige version.
Coupon works on all accessories and the Gear is considered an accessory.
25% coupon code: FALLFUN25
I'm not going to buy it since I'm content with the Pebble, but for those of you that are curious, you can get it cheaper.

I got mine from Amazon for $724.99. It's a prime eligible item also. It should be arriving today. Woo hoo!!! It's not a great price reduction considering that that is what the AT&T store had them listed at. At least I didn't have to pay tax or shipping. But AT&T said they would only sell me one if I bought a Galaxy Gear also. Ridiculous

I went to an At&t store to preorder the phone, they "couldn't let me just buy the phone outright (even thought the website has the option to) I preordered my note 3 from on the next program (which is pretty much still a contract in my opinion). With next you can pay off the phone anytime, so as soon as I picked it up from the store I paid it off.
I paid $665 total and had paid the tax when I went into preorder $42.
So about $707 total, which is much better than paying $724 without tax included.
