Most people only read the first post. http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ttons/edit.gif the first post and make the following changes.

* Make a list
* With all objects
* Included

And state that you've lowered the price to $280 USD.

Please be aware of the following. I think your price is slightly above a fair price because a used N800 for 200 USD on eBay doesn't sell. They go for less. 2 SD cards are nice addon, but you need to keep in mind they're used. A good, new BlueTooth GPS device with Sirf III goes for ~20 USD.

Good luck!

If you had come out and said $280 I might not have bothered posting, the only number you mentioned was the $450 when I posted.
I get upset with people using terms like "perfect codition" (is that Canadian for perfect condition?) when the item does not have a warranty. It better be perfect because if it needs fixing it'll COST.

There are some high schoolers who come to this board wanting to get a computer but don't know prices, they don't need to get discouraged.

As far as what you paid for an item new or used it's between you and whoever sold it to you. There are a lot of people on this board who have bought new w/warranty N810's for over $450 and some lucky dogs who have gotten them for $300 (compusa).

I'll sell you my N810 for $1,000 US.

And peeps - When you make a list include brands, especially for SDHC cards.

No it's "perfect condition" for PERFECT CONDITION in ANY language / country. I'm from the UK but moved here last year. I have been using eBay for 8 years and have a 100% feedback totalling around 405 (all private item sales / purchases) so when I say "perfect" I mean PERFECT. Why you get upset god only knows. Weird really.
Plus I did say 4 months old so there's 8 months warranty left if you do the maths. Get real buddy. I'm outta here.

Hi,

WOW!

Never have I seen A forum where it is popular and tolerated to trash A seller for the price they ask for the item they are selling.

If you have an interest in the item, pm the person and discuss it, if not, stop trashing the person.

The OP has A price they want and if you feel it is high, do not buy the item but you all have made it impossible for the person to sell the item here now because of the uncalled for posts that followed the OP.

I really think some of you need to brush up on your social skills as some of the posts in this thread are vicious and totally uncalled for.

I will say this thread gives validity for the need of A moderating team as opposed to just Reggie as the sole Moderator.

To the OP, I will offer my apologies for the behaviour of some of the above posters as they do not reflect the whole membership of this site.

The last time I, bunanson, checked, this is still a public forum......anybody is welcome to post or not to post, maybe Reggie, is the only person has to the right to tell people NOT to post.

Posting an item with a seemingly higher than "fair" market value, irritate me too. Worth $450 (implied for an asking $) for a used N800 plus some accessories certainly deserved a comment. Being in the same community, it is my obligation to 'help' the buyer and the seller, so neither one get upset after the transaction. If I am a potential buyer, I welcome the extra info. BTW, I picked up 2 N800 4 months back in two separate transactions, both were under $150, came with everything in the box and more, 2G SD X2 and extra car chargers.

:mad:

I love how it's always the same characters that come in to lambast everybody for their 'poor social skills'. Keep up the impressive work, gentlemen, one can't underestimate the good you're doing! :rolleyes:
