abubakar and gerbick are both right.
On the one hand...what is being asked for a functional n950 and serious repair-job and parts replacements n950's ...is a very steep price.
perhaps years ago it may have commanded that price...but now...I don't think so...
for years I have seen the prices for nxx0's fluctuate...up and down...
Nowadays ...it is just ridiculous ...
for example...
right now ...there are n800's on ebay
starting at a bid of $1
buy it now's from $20 up to $227
n810's for up to $494 ....NOT including the $65 in shipping...
and n900's I have also seen all over the map.
So abubakar and gerbick are both correct...
the value inherent in the devices ...
(even as a coveted device that a collector or developer or even a die-hard user drools over...)..
and what people ask for on the auction block and sale sites...
is not in line with reality.
Some devices I have seen for sale... the owners are obviously asking too little ...
Some devices I have seen for sale...the owners are obviously asking too much...
Frankly...
currently...
It is the wild west ...
With no proper credible valuation in place on our device line.
