I've seen these phones on sale in independent stores that aren't rip-offs for mid-$500's outright.

Buying a phone from a Telstra store is like buying computer gear from Harvey Norman or Dick Smith.

Yes as i found out from my first search result. From melbournemobiles.com.au they sell this model for $599. But it is his phone, and he can sell it for whatever price he wants. That being said, in my eyes it may be a tad over priced... reason for sale?

No-one said he wasn't allowed to sell it for $1,000,000,000,000.

We're just giving him some helpful advice on how likely he is to sell it when people can get it brand new, with receipts and fewer warranty hassles, from a shop.

checked out the site, 599 is true for this phone new

so ill let it go for 450, which is 150 less then what the website is selling it for new.

just selling it for a mate who doesnt have the net at home, he got a new fone, one of those sony ericsons with 1.3 megapixel cameras, sik fone, but this motorola one is cool

in good condition, couple of little nicks but u save yaself 150 from the new thing so it is a good buy

wasent aware that you could get them for that price new? could be legit or could be dodgy dont know?

have 2 offers of 400, so unless anyone can do better ill be selling it in the next couple of days

$599 is still expensive. You can get them brand new here in Adelaide for $525 - $530 from an authorised mobile store complete with tax invoice.

I could say the phone is $300 at my 'local store' with warranty, reciepts and got a free coffee included as well. But no-one is going to belive me untill i showed some proof of this price. So how about you stop whinging about the market price being too expensive and just buy the freakin phone if you want it so badly. In all honestly who cares if its a $70 difference between market prices, if you want it you;ll pay any price for it. So save everyone else the hassle of reading your trivial posts.

I remember replying to your posts in another mobile phone thread recently. Seems its a common trend of yours. Do you actually buy any of these phones....?

This is not a personal dig, this is just a rant about people whinging about prices of goods, when they dont actually propose anything useful in their post. He has lowered his price sufficiently, so be done with it.

It's my right to whinge about anything I like just as it is your right to reply to my post. I will the phone when the price is right but in the meantime I will continue posting up the cheapest price so everyone knows how much they go for.

My hero. Buy it new if you are the finder of such great prices! You're one of those annoying people that piss off retail sales people i bet. "But i can get it $10 cheaper at this other shop, blah blah blah" WELL GO AND BUY IT THERE THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you don't do that then you're getting ripped off.

A mate of mine recently bought a Navman iCN 510. He walked in to a Dick Smith and started haggling with them. Got $50 off the unit. He then went to a Harvey Norman, told them about the price from DSE, who beat that price by $30. He went back to the first DSE and told them about Harveys, offering them a last bit on it, and they lopped off another $10.

I wouldn't have thought that DSE or Harvey Norman would bargain (but with their bullshit markup why not, I suppose), but since the satnav units aren't moving the retail sales guys are getting more freedom to manouvre in order to get rid of stock. You just need to know how to shop, and I'd be quite happy to give some guy a little shit, if he's getting paid to take it, so I can save $90.

On that note, who ever pays retail on their car gear? I can't remember the last time anyone paid sticker price on their tyres, or mods, etc.

Last time I checked, this was a community and the guys on here look out for each other. If someone's selling second hand goods for well above retail, you'd hope that members of your community would let you know.

    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
