I posted this in the "Other Carrier" section but since we Nexus 4 users are very dependent of the BYOP providers I felt it was relevant here as well.

I have been testing Straight Talk T-mobile sim since ST no longer offers AT&T sims. I was going to try NET 10 because of the ST AT&T sim cost on eBay. I have been on the NET 10 forum. (what a nightmare). I found this response. Of course Net-Janice did not even answer the question. Like everything else NET 10 does on their forum.

I have ordered my NET 10 sims on eBay for .99 each but when the word gets out. I bet they are going to be like buying Straight Talk AT&T sims on eBay.

Hi glitched. My name is Net Janice. We currently do not sell AT&T SIM cards. We will keep you posted once it is made available again. If you use a T-Mobile SIM card, the phone will not roam to use an AT&T tower. Thanks.

I'm willing to bet that Net Janice is also Straight Talk Janice and she is getting her forums mixed up...
Anyways, I went to Net10 website and I can still purchase ATT Sim/Microsim on the site (at least in zip 28677)
 
I just looked to see if the Net10 MicroSIM would show up for me on net10sim.com and it looks like they have stopped selling them. I don't think they'll ever be worth as much as Straight Talk's sims.
 
The reason the ST At&t sim cards are sold out and going for crazy prices on Ebay is because "supposedly" the ETF when porting out of At&t to ST is not enforced. Again " supposedly" because ST and At&t are a somewhat partnership. FWIW idk if it's true but I would think their has to be some validity to it or else why are ST sims selling for 5,6 or 10x their value?
