Guest glossywhite Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 Hi all. I just wondered if any of you out there would like to swap your San Diego for an Apple iPod Touch, 4th gen (8Gb)? It is in great condition & full working order, but has no earphones or USB cable. I am trying to sell elsewhere in order to buy a San Diego so I may join the hack effort, but I thought I would offer it here too. Thank you :) Matt
Guest BlueMoonRising Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 I'm thinking of getting an Ovivo SIM, would it work in it? ;)
Guest glossywhite Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 Nope . Not worth the money. You're right - the iPod Touch is worth more used than a used SD.
Guest grizzlyflea Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 You're right - the iPod Touch is worth more used than a used SD. LOL!
Guest glossywhite Posted March 28, 2013 Report Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) LOL! I can understand people having last year's San Diego price in their mind when making comments that the iPod is "not worth it", but I am looking at this from the perspective of a new buyer, and the San Diego is now just £99, not £199, and the iPod Touch 4th gen sells used for £90-£100 all day long on eBay etc, so unless you are expecting to re-coup a chunk of last year's San Diego price, which is highly unlikely you will, then I'm bang on the nail at my price, in my opinion, as a San Diego - which I can buy for £99, *used*, is then worth £65-80 to me, see? Let's face it, why would I pay more than £99 for a used San Diego, when I can buy a new one for that? I hope you see my rationale :) Thanks :) Edited March 28, 2013 by glossywhite
Guest BlueMoonRising Posted March 29, 2013 Report Posted March 29, 2013 How much premium would you add for an unlocked OSD? Especially given the minimum 6 month de-facto wait period plus the extra 3 months for them to actually process it?

Especially given the minimum 6 month de-facto wait period plus the extra 3 months for them to actually process it? You're assuming that I'm not already with Orange/T-mobile/Virgin. If I *needed* it to be unlocked, I'd make that explicitly clear. Also, half the point of my buying one is to work on an unlocking solution, so locked or no, it's irrelevant to me entirely. A premium could indeed be considered for one to whom it mattered, yes, but asking a premium for an unlocked handset over a locked one, when it was unlocked to solve *your* problem and the buyer is indifferent as to whether its locked or not, is pointless. If you take issue with Orange keeping you waiting X months for an unlock code and charging £X for it, you take that up with Orange, not the buyer you're selling to. Thank you :)

Thank you :) Most people would just say they don't need it to be unlocked but if you want to come across as if you've got a broom handle stuck up your nether regions than I guess that's your business. Have a good day. :)

Have a good day. :) I was explaining why it doesn't matter to a buyer. I'm sorry that you choose to take offence with how I speak; I didn't mean it offensively, it was a matter of making it clear. This is not the first occasion upon which you've willingly taken offence when you weren't given it - you told me I was calling people liars, in another thread, for no rational reason. I'd think it best if you don't read too much into things, with due respect.
Guest grizzlyflea Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 @glossywhite, since you're getting an OSD do you think that you'll be able to crack the boot loader?
Guest glossywhite Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) @glossywhite, since you're getting an OSD do you think that you'll be able to crack the boot loader? Ask me when I get it :P hehe [EDIT] Got it!! :D Edited March 30, 2013 by glossywhite
Guest grizzlyflea Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 Ask me when I get it :P hehe [EDIT] Got it!! :D So how about answering that question
Guest glossywhite Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 So how about answering that question Haha! Gimme a chance guvna', only been playing with it for 3 hours, and a bloke's got to have a good 48 hours of fiddling with a new gadget :P I'm not rushing this; I've seen what happens when other, over-enthused owners go rushing in... and BRICK it. No thanks, I'm taking it easy :) Have a Happy Easter, God bless you! :)
