Hello everyone. I'm looking to find a good deal on a Verizon phone. I recently got scammed into trading my Nexus 7 and money for an SGS3, which worked fine, so I made a deal to sell that for money. So I also sold my Galaxy Nexus, and was going to use the money from that plus the sale of my SGS3 to buy a Nexus 4 on T-Mobile or a Maxx HD. Well of course, my Galaxy Nexus has been sold, and it turns out that the SGS3 that I bought was stolen, but wasn't reported until right before the person that I sold it to tried to activate it. A friendly call from the Alabama PD this morning informed me of that, so they're recovering the SGS3, and I have to refund the money to the person that I sold it to.

So out of all of this I've lost:
A 16 GB Nexus 7 +$80
A Verizon Galaxy Nexus
An SGS3
$435

So if I can't find a good deal on a phone, I may have to leave the forums for a bit until I get a job that I can work around baseball and school. It stinks because I'm one of the few trusted on here that has made multiple good transactions. This is one of the friendliest forums I've seen with some all-time good people.

So if anyone has a smartphone that they're willing to sell for cheap, let me know.

Thanks guys.

Thanks Wildo. I appreciate it.

Scams...the reason xda is closing the marketplace doors. Sad. Truly sad. On a serious note

No problem. Gotta back up the few decent people left on the marketplace. Sucks that XDA is shutting the doors. But I don't really blame them at all.

Wow. You guys are the best. I'll probably get back to one of you guys over the weekend, unless anybody has a newerish (?) moto device. I go to school in the middle of nowhere and have terrible service.
Thanks again guys.
