Selling this mint and rare note 7!

All Note 7s have been recalled. I am willing to sell mine to someone who really wants it.

I can take it back for full refund. But whats the point? This one's not going to blow up!

I'm sure some people will keep them for novelty and collectibility. But how useful it would be if it never gets a software update?

Im a little choked I was hoping to pick one up for cheap once they sorted it out. I wasn't very impressed with pixel xl but I guess it's the only decent new phone. Great opportunity for Google to take advantage of

with the Note 7's demise the current selection is pretty depressing right now and i'm actually considering making the switch to Apple

Like the Pixel is just a fucking slap to the face.
You want me to pay iPhone money for THAT inept fucking thing?
Blow me. Twice. With your marketing and sales rep team.

Isn't Samsung sending out an update that locks the note7s or throws up a disclaimer every time u try to use it? Can't see why ppl would want to stick with a phone that's hampered like that merely for Collectiveness

I already made the jump to iPhone 7. Do it. The other side's pretty good actually.

Wind is apprently going to take back all Note 7s regardless if it's originally from Wind or a Samsung replacement for $1099.

I think other carriers will follow.

Motherfuck. Same boat here. I'm on a replacement Note 7 and 2 days later they decide to kill it off completely. Been with Samsung since the original Galaxy S man ... either Edge or iPhone for me now.

Decisions decisions!

how's the quality of Oppo/OnePlus these days?

so my friend,
when he got Note 7, he got $200 off trading in some unusable crap phone, plus free watch for pre-ordering.
He's going to exchange for S7 Edge($850 at Samsung store), and they are going to honor $200 trade credit + $100 sorry we fked up credit.
$652 tax in, and keeps the watch.

He is pretty happy with how it turned out.

It did not help that the hundreds of Samsung testers trying to pinpoint the problem could not easily communicate with one another: Fearing lawsuits and subpoenas, Samsung told employees involved in the testing to keep communications about the tests offline — meaning no emails were allowed, according to the person briefed on the process.
what a joke lol.

Waiting for Rogers to swap or credit me back for my note 7. Hope they do it soon. Flying out on the 23rd. I could swap with one of the s7 we have in stock but would rather transfer my phone once and not twice.

You know who it must really suck for? All those case manufactures. They must have a ton of stock that will have to be thrown out.

Looks like you can send the phone back without all the accessories.
