Hey guys! Im from US. I upgraded my phone when I got the Galaxy s3 but I really want to get the Note 2. No upgrades though =/ So what will my best option be? How much can I sell my S3 for? and should I Buy Us version or UK?
I also have ATT. Will the international note 2 work good or should I wait for ATT one
I would wait till the note 2 comes out to your provider... And then try to buy either a used note or new one straight out... Once you buy the new one you can sell your s3 to cover the cost of your note 2

What carrier is your S3? The AT&T and T-Mobile one go for $400-$425, and the Verizon and Sprint ones sell for less than that. I would honestly sell it right now. The value will drop even more when the Note II comes out. It is going to run you between $600-$700 to purchase of contract.
I sold my international S3 for $540 locally.
Post in Kijiji or Craigs list with good pics. Also go buy a class 2 cheap micro SD card and advertise it a S3 48gb. It will separate you from the competition and make you S3 seem more valuable. I would get the UK version also just for the roms alone.
Got some money saved up for black friday, I was planning on buying a 32GB nexus 7. I just got offered a galaxy note 2 tmobile if I add $150 and my galaxy s3 32Gb white tmobile. Whats your opinion on this?
Thanks

First, +150 is not a good deal. +50, or if the note is coming with accessories maybe. I just picked up the Note 2 brand new from Tmo for 170 out of pocket, 366 + 200 rebate. Since the price is 300+tax + 200 rebate you could just go get one from a store and sell your GS3 for 4-500.
I'd tell him that, then offer him a straight swap, only reason he is looking to sell the note is because he doesn't like it, and the GS3 is the only phone at the moment that compares so that means he wants one.

I sold my S3 2 weeks ago for $400 on craigslist within a half hour of listing it. Im sure I could have got more for it. If the Note 2 is brand new in a sealed box from someone you trust, and you know its not stolen, then go for it. That means you'll be paying about $550 for the Note 2. You'll be saving about $100+- over non contract retail. If its used, then I would probably cough up the extra $100 and get a brand new one from TMo with a 2 week return if you didnt like it.
UPDATE: Received my Note 2 on the 5th! Took some time, but absolutely worth it. For those of you still waiting, stay strong and keep on going. Push a bit harder too. The phone is absolutely fantastic.

Hey everyone! So with the current lack of inventory at Walmart Wireless, I figured it may be useful to have a thread up and running like this. I did some searching and couldn't find one for AT&T...so here we are.
I ordered my Note 2 on the 25th and am still under "Awaiting Inventory".
Talked to customer service representatives both today and yesterday.
Yesterday: Was told that they should receive a large shipment on the 29th and that it was likely for my device to ship then.
...
Today: After wondering where my phone was, I was informed that they have no idea when their shipments are coming in nor when my phone will ship. Basically, it could take no time or maybe awhile. Good news, without even asking I was offered free one day shipping.
*To get free shipping, you may have to call like I did.
Anyway, post your stories! :good:

I am in the situation as you. I ordered mine today and it says "awaiting inventory". Hopefully it will come in stock soon. Sams Club got a shipment in on Friday to the local store. I know the hold up has to do with the $100 gift card promotion, but if I have to wait for the phone to save $100 I will do just that!

Haha yes I did it for the 100 dollar promotion as well. Best of luck too, I hope it won't take them too long to get to your order. Hopefully they should receive their shipment tomorrow as they expected, but I've learned to not count on that. Will update soon

I ordered 2 of them on the morning of the 24th. And was taken back when I saw they were out of stock. Thursday, I was told our phones were shipping out saturday. Then Monday, we were told they would be sent out with in the next week or 2. And some how it seems people that ordered after us are getting them shipped already. Im not really impressed with Wal-Mart's customer service. This will be my last purchase online with them.

So, the tracking page changed to confirmed on Thursday. Said the same thing for my wife's SG3. She got her phone Friday... mine changed back to "awaiting inventory."
Getting impatient. Going on 2 weeks now....

Crap man I'm sorry to hear that! Best of luck to you as well. I'd recommend calling WW and demanding that you be put on priority or something. Sometimes all it takes a little pushing.

I wanted to buy the note for some time, but i was disappointed in the sprint launch of note 3 so i wanted to know if the price will drop for the note 2 when the note 3 comes out. Right now i see a price of $249.99 for upgrade but how much lower will it drop or will it even drop the price?
jd14771 said:
it could drop to 200$,but most likely, they will discontinue selling the note 2.

You could always buy mine for 350. Comes with 3 zero lemon batteries, 1standard case for the regular battery, a thin case and a screen protector. Only flaw is a crack that runs from left to right. Its a perfect line.

naw its ok thanks for the offer though but ill consider it if they actually discontinue selling it
but its ok if i use my upgrade... i can use my other lines upgrade next year for note 4 =)
Price on note 3 vs note 2
So yesterday I went to Best buy to pre-order the galaxy gear, and none of the ppl there knew what what the galaxy gear. So I continued looking around the Samsung kiosk that they have setup in store... mean while geeks search and educate them self's over the Galaxy Gear. I could help notice that the galaxy note 2 still have a price tag of 800 US dls... while the note 3 is being release for the same price. unless you are upgrading.. AT&T and Verizon is only 250, Sprint has their's for 350.
i see... thanks for the observation.. i see on amazon that sprint note 2 is on sale for 149.99 for upgrade you think i should take or not.. i never bought a phone fro mthere before
It's probably going to drop to $99.00 cause I have seen it as low as $149 depending on where you look. Radio Shack and Amazon are usually cheapest. Once the Note 3 drops it could even go as low as $49.99. GSIII's are free at Sprint right now.
When upgraded devices come out the price on the old hardware always drops while it is still carried. That just depends on what direction you want to go with your purchase. You can get the newest device or buy the Note 2 which in my mind is still new. I would review the device specs closely and decide which device will fit your needs.
Sprint has been having deals on the phones when they release. S4 had a bogo so who knows what they will do when it comes out. I'm with you I want the note 3 but I don't want to pay 350 for it. I've been debating on getting the nexus 5 or note 2.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
thanks for the reply people. i ordered my note 2 on amazon for 149.99 i know that it may go down to 99.99 or cheaper when note 3 comes out but i cant wait for it. im using a busted up blackberry 9630 and it has really bad problems even with texting and phone calls loll ive played around with the note 2 on my cousins phones and i know how the developements are. if only note 3 was triband and a 300 price tag i would buy it but right now none of the options came up. so ill stick with my note 2 when it comes so i can put the cleanrom ace with perseus kernel that is truly amazing. its coming on tuesday and i ordered it last night! this will be a good enough phone till the note 4 comes out and which i can use my other line's upgrade next year for it and give the other person the note 2 =)
I was contemplating getting the Note 3 but I think I am over the big screen for now. I will probably return at some point but the N3 didn't have enough wow factor for me. I am actually looking to trade my Note 2 for a Moto X lol.
Anyone interested

I'm currently on AT&T's network and was thinking of the Note 4's resale value. Suppose after a year or so I decide to put my phone up for sale, what would the value be compared to the other Note 4 variants on the market?
not much
it will be higher only cause it can be used internationally other than that is is about the same as the others. verizon does the same. so if you would like to get rid of it for the most money it would be now when it is still new later down the road you will get alot less for your device.just look at the note 3 on swappa or ebay and you will see the difference.

Yep, just look at the note 3 value now. You should expect your note 4 to be the same when the note 5 comes out.
My friend just sold his N4 for ~$700 on amazon, he used it for about 2-3 weeks. If you wait a year, you'll be lucky to get $3-350 for it (Which is what used note 3's go for now) because it will no longer be the new hotness.
My gf and I went to T-Mobile the other day to look into switching from AT&T. I was absolutely shocked and stupified when the sales person told me she would get $330 trade in value for her iPhone 5s 16gb and I would only get $300 trade in credit for my brand new Note 4. I was floored ?? like WTF!!
i sold my note 3 a week after i got the note 4 for $350. It was still locked to AT&T. I expect the same for the Note 4 when the 5 comes out...
I sold my Note 2 for $225
I sold my unlocked AT&T Note 3 prematurely on 9/4 on Ebay for $400.

How much of that did you get after fees?
Check on swappa.com you got all values of all phones.
You guys must be great marketing geniuses. I didn't get many responses a month back from swappa attempting to sell my wife's near mint Note 3 ATT version or my own T Mobile Note 3.
In the end sold them for 300 and 320 on Craig's list.
Both were unrooted and service provider unlocked and had been cased and screen protected from new.

Ebay takes 10% at the end of month and PayPal 2.9% at transaction. Cleared $348.xx.
On two occasions I had older phones sold on Craigslist, but when suggesting we meet in a Police station parking lot to complete transaction they didn't call back.
Hmmmmm?
I have a carry permit, but offer police station for buyers comfort.
