Root I Want Some CM9/The Teste/Testing/Off Topic Thread

These sellers are pissing me off with this "No SIM card included". ARGGGGGG DUH!!!!!! Metro doesn't use sim cards you fools. Why can't they put NO UICC card if that's the case?

How do these sellers NOT have a lot of claims files against them? If I bought a phone and it didn't have data and I went off the "no SIM card" part, I would be FURIOUS.

they dont know any better lol, they think its a sim card n thus pull it out for privacy issues lol
 
Yeah I was watching and with only two seconds or so left, damn bast**d. Sent a link to another one with 11/2 hours left and is at $173, maybe we can steal that one away?
 
I'm usually that person that sneaks in with 10 seconds left. I'll throw in my absolute highest bid that I will pay for it and sit back and hope I get it.

People think if you bid a certain amount that you PAY that amount. You only pay that amount if it gets bid on by other people and they bid more than what you bid. If no one bids then you get it for whatever the price was. Could be $100 cheaper than your highest bid. That's why I rely on my top dollar amount and NOT penny pinching bids cause I'll never win like that.

Yeah I run a small business from home doing refurbs on laptops and then reselling them so I'm on Ebay quite a bit. I use the same approach when buying, put in the most you are willing to pay and sit back and wait.

Like anything else in life, it's a crap shoot most of the time when bidding but with that approach I always know how much it's going to cost me and can get more bang for my buck. More inventory to fix means more inventory to sell for profit.

Exactly. If you do the bidding game with $1 increments you will never win. You gotta bid a max bid in the last 10 seconds and hope you get it.
 
This time BID the max amount ;) Dont nickel and dime.

Plus if you do win make sure they disable the lock keypad and on the status bar it shows the icon for the sim card not inserted so make sure the UICC card is still in it. ;)
