Want to buy a nexus off contract.....

[kylep23]

Seems like I read that there was somewhere to buy the phone for $400 without a contract. Looks like VZW still wants $650 for it. My upgrade isn't until January and my Bolt is trashed.

I'm sure you're referring to this, but it's for the GSM gnex.

Yep, oh well. Best Buy wants $799 for it one. I guess I will search Craigslist.

Is post paid service cheaper without a contract on Verizon?

Yeah, that's just crazy. I'm not too sure about this but I remember someone saying they were able to add a line, get a new phone, and then cancel it or some funny business. Sounds to simple for Big Red to let that slip. Good luck. I love this phone. Nice stang too

 

[kylep23]

Guess I could buy it for $199 adding a line. Then pay the $350 cancellation fee and come out ahead .....

I would definately check craigslist. You can get a really good deal if you are patient and check what is up for grabs often. There are always people wanting something else, and looking to change phone which equals a good deal for you!

normally I would agree... but this phone has to many random issues.... most wont be covered by the man warranty if not bought new... I wouldnt buy this phone used....
just my 2 cents

Definitely keep checking on Craigslist. You'll eventually find something on there. Good luck.

You could do like I did...open a new line and get the gnex for $199, then transfer it to your line that upgrades in January and put a basic feature phone on the new line. That way you get a gnex and it will only cost you about $10 more per month than you pay now. I did this all at my local verizon store and it took all of about 15-20 minutes.

No, its the exact same price.

Which is the GSM model, won't work for OP if he wants VZW.

GSM is the best call though. Cheaper (better) device and cheaper service monthly w/o contract.
