Where can I buy a kaiser for cheap?

I've heard lots of people here talking about buying their kaisers for $200, EVEN $99!! Where on Earth do you find such a good deal? I have been in the market for weeks on Ebay and can only find ones for $500+. Does anyone have some advice for me on where I can pick one up for at most $400? Anyone selling or know of somebody selling theirs? I don't care if it isn't unlocked or still has the AT&T ROM... I can manage that. Anyways, I could really use some insight from you people. Any info would help. Thanks!

i just sent you a pm

yes let me know as well please

Actually I would be interested to know where you can get a Kaiser for such low prices. Preferably in Europe/UK though. Any suggestions??

well am selling mine for £200 (about $400) it has marks on it hence the low price. pm me if you want more info

I didn't know if there was already a thread for a topic like this. Looks like others are in the same boat as me.

i tried to put a tread on about selling my kaiser before but no one was interested then. so hopefuly i will sell it now

ebay
It's where i got mine from... £300 in november

if in the US (may work elsewhere too), you can get in on Amazon for $149 with contract renewal or new contract

Do you have ATT service in your area? if so, then you should be able to buy it too. I only said US only because I wasn't sure if the deal would apply to other countries as well. Since it does ask for a zip code to verify availablity I would assume it would work in canada as well. Try it, see if it accepts your zip.

send a PM to me too, i want where can i buy it to

Steal it at HTC manufacture !!! just kidding

AT&T is only for US residents
*sigh*
I guess I'll keep searching ebay.

ill put mine up on the chopping block for $400... its in great condition...
mines got the ab-fab wifi router working on it...

Newegg has a little bit of a better deal. Comes out to $129 after all rebates. You can get a free bluetooth headset too during the checkout although you do have to pay $5 shipping.

Best place to by a TyTN II? (in the US)

Hi I’ve been angsting over which device to buy and finally decided on the tytnii so now I’ve been searching around for good places to buy it (at good prices). Places like expansys seem to be out (horrible reviews) and most other places seem to be selling it in the mid $700 range. Amazon seems to be the best bet at the moment (not ideal but can settle) however I wanted to check and see if anyone else could recommend any better places for cheaper prices.
A wee bit of background. I’m working in Afghanistan at the moment, will be going back to the states in about a week (then coming back to Afg). Sh*t happens here so it seems like getting a warranty/insurance would be a good idea (looking at squaretrade.com at the moment) which would set me back an additional $180 or so.
Any suggestions on getting a phone for a better price, insurance, etc would really be appreciated!
Cheers

You didn't mention who your provider is. If you have ATT you can get them new for $549.99 (retail price) and if you don't mind signing a 2 year contract on the line you can get a good deal below:
New ($299):
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...etails/?device=AT&T+Tilt(TM)&q_sku=sku1060009
Refurbished (149.99):
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...s/?device=AT&T+Tilt+(Refurb)&q_sku=sku1190046

As for insurance I've seen this place recommended a lot:
http://www.safeware.com/

if u r going to sign 2yr than get from amazon.com as they have fantastic prices.
p.s. i got mine for 75 after 50.00 mail in rebate w/2yr.

Amazon has a great price, but the fine print. Conditional $250 Discount
The Price listed above for this phone includes an instant $250 discount from Amazon.com. You agree to repay this $250 discount to Amazon.com if, during the six-month period following the activation date or renewal date of your existing contract, you: (1) fail to pay your balance due each month on time; (2) fail to maintain your account in good standing; (3) disconnect the line of service; (4) transfer the phone to another line of service; (5) change your service rate plan, including canceling or removing required PDA, BlackBerry, or smartphone features after your product has shipped; or (6) use this line of service to replace an existing account with the carrier. The discount is available only if you are activating a new non-substitute line of service or extending an existing line of service. If you do not follow these rules, you authorize Amazon.com to charge your credit card $250 as reimbursement of the discount without need for further approval."
I would stick with AT&T.

Holy mother of price drops! Bionic already $129 at Amazon until Sept 26th...

http://wireless.amazon.com/f/verizon50
http://m.bgr.com/2011/09/16/amazon-offers-50-gift-card-with-all-verizon-phones/
Wanted to give you guys the heads up on this deal. Amazon already had the Bionic priced at $179. Now apparently they will throw in a $50 amazon gift card for anyone purchasing the Bionic (or other Verizon phones) up until Sept 26th... effectively making the Bionic a mere $129!
Hope this helps someone
Edit: $129 pricing is for new lines of service. Upgrades are $199 ($249 + 50 gift card)

Hmmmm... I'm showing 249....

If you go with new plan instead of upgrade it changes price to $179, and you get a $50 VZW card, so = $129
Does with both new individual and family plans.
Upgrade individual / family plans gets regular $249 price.

Eh, I got mine for $179 with a new line. Still a nice little price drop, though.

Be aware that when you purchase/upgrade your service with indirects/web stores/etc., you not only sign a contract with VZW but you also sign a contract with them.
Some are better than others. A couple of indirects will actually make you pay an ETF if you do something as simple as say a price plan change.

This. I spend a LOT of money with Amazon, and can usually get them to bend the rules on stuff like this (seeing as I just purchased last THU). But no-go on this one without an early term fee.

Good heads up for newbies. I know for Amazon its that you can't downgrade or cancel your data plan on your account for 6 months after you sign up... but after that you are fine to do whatever.
Cant really think of anyone who signs up for a two-year contract just to cancel it 5 months later... Only would be extreme situations that don't affect 95% of people...

Best Buy

I got my pre ordered One on Sunday from my local best buy. I paid $260 after my upgrade and getting the geek squad insurance and sales tax. I got to reading the wire fly thread and saw that they had them for $119 with $20 visa card. That would drop it down to $100 plus I get the $100 from my OG EVO. WELL...I went into Best Buy tonight and told them I wanted a refund on my phone and I was going to buy from Wire Fly. They asked if they price matched, would I keep it? Said, SURE! Walked out paying $.01 for phone and $9.99 for protection plan. $10.00!!!! I also get $100 back from HTC! In the end I'll have made $90 on the new ONE!
Just had to share my story. Love this phone!

Wish I had nice Best Buys near me that price matched online retailers. Mine only does local brick & mortar stores. Congrats!

Hey, I've got black tie, too. Dies having black tie help get any kind of discount even when you're not upgrade eligible? (Sorry, not real familiar with black tie/best buy).
TIA

Very nice. I wish bestbuy would be consistent with their pricematching.

I had every intention on returning it I even chatted with an online sales person to see if they'd price match, they told me only if it says 'lowest price guarantee". When I went in, the girl asked me if they matched the price, would I keep the phone. She then asked the details she must have misunderstood me and gave it to me for free. Score!
Was able to give evo4g LTE to son and send in his evo for $100.

I bought a HTC One from Best Buy, then realized that Sprint was selling it for $150 less. They would not price match so I ordered one from Sprint, it arrived a couple days later, then returned the first one back to them.
Pretty ridiculous that they wouldn't price match especially considering I bought it off contract.

I could be mistaken but I believe their policy says they price match most things except "contract phones." Since you were going to buy yours off-contract from BB, they should have price matched. I would call up BB corporate and complain, telling them that cannot see yourself shopping at BB any longer after that experience. I do this every time a BB employee/manager screws up and corporate always makes up for it by sending me a $50 gift card.
Here is the policy:

That's what I thought too but the guys working in the mobile section seem to be a few beers short of a six pack.
I let them know that I would never considering buying a phone from them again. I will continue to use Best Buy for their "showrooming" quality and order my stuff online.

Ya I too bought mine from best buy off contract and I couldn't for the life of me get them to price match sprints off contract price when I use to get them to price match the off contact price on my past phones like the Evo 3d and Galaxy Nexus, they said it was a new policy that went into effect in like March

Hate to one up ya......but check out what I did. Last year my wife and I both got 2 Evo 4G LTE's and I shelled out an extra $30 on each phone for their black tie trade in program. I had to open up 2 new lines as my wife and I's lines were not available for upgrade. Best buy let me swap my 2 new lines to the old lines. This would allow me to upgrade my LTE's in a year if I wanted. (My friend wanted one of my lines and the other went to my mother). So this brings us to this year and the one. When I went to trade in my LTE's, Best Buy gave us $280.00 per LTE for trade....I walked out about $40.00 + after taxes....and have 2 phones to send back to HTC....so end the end....+240.00!!!! (well minus the $60 i paid for the program only $180 ahead.) still not bad being paid for this awesome phone!!

Ya, that new policy in March says no price matching for "contract phone." The employee you spoke with incorrectly applied it to off contract phones. You can see the policy in the link I provided in my previous post in this thread. I would print out a copy and show it to them. If they still refuse, call corporate and complain. They will likely send you a gift card for your trouble at the minimum.

Note 4 purchase.

I'm currently on AT&T and would like to get a T-Mobile Note 4 and unlock it to be used on my AT&T plan. T-Mobile wants $420 down for the device (based on my credit check (thanks ex-wife)), but the device outright can be purchased for $600-700 online. Is there any other alternative to getting the device without paying so much up front?

Oh, used? I guess that makes sense then.

From another thread in q&a:
I bought the phone. It was a bit of a process but easy. You have to have a service plan for them to sell you one. So I signed up for the phone and the cheapest plan they would get me. Then went home and called Tmobile customer care and paid the balance of the phone off. Then went to cellunlocker and got an unlock code. Then for the next day or so I used it on AT&T to make sure it had no problems. Then I called up Tmobile and canceled my plan.

Yes, but they want me to put $420 down just to start a plan with them...if I'm going to pay that much down, I might as well just buy the phone outright. I was just seeing if there was an alternative.

Yes, but if you are up for a 2 year contract on AT&T you can by the AT&T version for discount then sell it for $750 + then by the t-mobile version and save yourself about $350.

I put mine up on Craig's list for 800.00 and it sold in a few hours. The full price of the phone on AT&T without a 2 year contract is $825.00. As long at you sell it for less than that it sells pretty quick. Don't know where you got the market value is 600.00 if you are selling it for 600.00 you are getting ripped off. They go for way more than that. Even on ebay most of the auctions are finishing in the $750 range.

Put mine on craigslist 3 days after it came out in Washington DC area. Took 3 days to get a reasonable offer- $760. Sold for that amount. My brother listed his on craigslist three weeks later at $650, didn't get any bites for a few days and finally had to settle for $600 (this was one week ago). I'm not sure where YOU live, but the market price for the AT&T version of the Note 4 is certainly around $600. Look at Swappa: five phones listed for under $630. You know how much they make after the $10 fee and shipping? $600. Do not advise people that they can get even close to retail asking price for the AT&T version. Maybe the T-Mobile version... that price is holding steady around $680-$690.

Yeah, there are a couple T-Mobile Note 4s on Craigslist around here for like $550-650.

Well that sticks for you I guess. There are plenty selling for $750 on eBay and Craig's list. Swappa always has **** for prices for a seller. Look them up on eBay. And there are tons up for sale in my cities on Craig's list for $750. Just had a friend sell his yesterday for $780 he didn't even bring it home from the store, found an offer before he made it home.
Sorry you can find any one to buy it for more than $600 but that send like a you problem, not the going rate for the phone.

Ok, sell on eBay for $700 (if you're lucky, still seeing recent sold ones for ~$650) fee break down: $70 to eBay, $20 to PayPal, $10 Shipping. Net $600. I don't know why you're arguing this... any way you sell the phone you're going to be getting ~$600 for the phone, give or take $25.
Yesterday's average selling price on eBay of new or like new AT&T Note 4s was $657.08 with a standard deviation of $53.32. The median was $664.43. So If you're that middle guy, selling for $660. You'd be getting $660 - $66 ebay fee - $19.44 paypal fee - ~$10 shipping fee. You're looking at $564.56. Even at the top end, you're looking at $608.46

OK, so Rent-A-Center has them for $29 on black Friday and you have 90 days to pay it in full. So...having it paid in full in 3 months is a cool deal.
Now...has anyone got one from Rent-A-Center and will it work on AT&T and use it as a T-Mobile device as far as rooting, flashing, etc.?
