03-27-2008, 08:10 PM
Price: 275 or trade
Color: Red and Silver
Included: Everything from new
Life Timer: 43
Used/Tested Networks: Sprint
Condition: NEW

Location: Pinson, Alabama
Shipping: FREE DHL overnight
Payment: Paypal (plus 5% for fees) or straight up trade.


Additional Details: I ordered this last weekend for an upgrade. I've had it since Tuesday, and i love it, but the keys are a real pain to type on with my bigger fingers. Its in BRAND NEW condition, will all the original accessories in the original box. I'm tempted to return it, seeing as i have 30days, but its such a PITA that i'd rather just try and trade it.

IM LOOKING TO TRADE FOR: either a V9M or a MINTY MINT Treo 700p or 755. NO blackberrys or Q's. i might also be interested in a Muziq+cash or any other EVDO phone + cash.

powerbook, I'll trade straight up but I'd require you to send first due to lack of feedback. I will include everything that came with the phone originally and the extras that I've purchased minus the 1GB MiniSD. Let me know.

powerbookkid
03-28-2008, 11:34 PM
Okay, Never mind. i just got retentions to cancel the order for the new muziq. OMG sprint is making my head explode.

anyways, when i brought the centro to the store today, it fell from the desk, and ended up scratching a part of it. not terribly happy bout it, but nothing i can do. it still looks great, just not as perfect as i wanted it to be.

IF the person with the Muziq is still interested, how does $75cash sound? let me know.

if the muziq falls through, I might still be interested in the 755p. I have to research it more.

thanks everybody!

P.s. Im actually on hold with retentions right now... i couldnt believe they had people on the phones at midnight. that was a nice little supprise :)

keep me posted power but you'd have to claim insurance or something on that phone. I don't have a defect on this phone and I would like to get one in the same condition.

to be honest go with the palm 755, lg sucks, always have and i know palm is good at what it does. i wouldnt want u to feel gipped. but a strait up trade for a 755 sounds like a good deal

I hear ya. And i do like the 755. BUT, cirrus wants it to be absolutely spotless, which its not now, because of some stupid sprint rep.

plus, his 755 comes with extras that i dont have anything comparable to.

Here's a pic of the scratch....

If its good enough, I'll gladly trade for the 755 and ill ship first. no problem.

powerbook, this phone is within 30 days right. If its at all possible try to get the pink one. My wife is dying for a pink centro. I'm willing to sacrifice my PDA to get it for her. Then I'll just take her rumor for the time being. If its possible. If not then let me know and we'll talk details about the trade.

That scratch doesn't look horrible in the picture. From a scale of 1-10 how bad is it really, 10 being the worst

powerbookkid
03-29-2008, 07:41 PM
it is within 30days. Ill try calling in right now to see if they can overnight me a pink one monday. If they won't, the scratch really isnt that bad. maybe a 3.

03-29-2008, 07:44 PM
Ok, I do appreciate the effort. It would be great if this worked out. I'm very interested in the trade. She'll be so surprised.

If it doesn't work out I'll strongly think about trading for the red centro. I've been interested in them since they've came out.

Thanks again for the effort.

powerbookkid
03-29-2008, 10:07 PM
You're in luck! the rep is sending out a brand new pink one monday. i wont even open the box. I'd have it shipped straight to you, but retentions wouldnt let me send it anywhere else but the billing address. boo.

Anyways, once the pink centro is received, I'll overnight it to you via DHL. (i got the hookup. only costs $5)

PLEASE DONT TRADE OR SELL THE 755! i REALLY dont want a pink phone, and im getting rather sick of calling retentions saying i need to exchange my phone again. lol. =))

wow, thanks a lot power, I can't believe you got it. I'm gonna post in my thread to have it closed and we'll just finish up details in here. Fantastic news!

powerbookkid
03-30-2008, 10:08 AM
okay great. im excited. cant wait! i'll keep you posted. These phones come from a warehouse thats really close to me...so even with ground shipping, i should have the new centro tuesday at the latest. I'll keep you posted. :clap:

cirruslyloud
03-30-2008, 12:44 PM
Thanks. Is priorty shipping ok? I don't think I can afford to overnight it but I can send priority with DC for like $5. If this is a problem then let me know. I'm not gonna tell the wife. I'll just give it to her when it gets here.

I never traded a phone like that within 30 days...do you just send them your phone back? Thanks again...

powerbookkid
03-30-2008, 12:53 PM
Priority is fine.

And returns thru retentions are a nightmare. Yes, you have to send the phone back. but first, they send out your replacement and a box to ship the return back to them... and then they charge you for both phones! and, you HAVE to pay for both phones, because if you dont your bill will be considered late, and then they credit you back. like i said, nightmare. but its worth it for a 755 like yours. :)

and yeah, dont tell her... because its still going to be shrinkwrapped and everything! :))

this is great. about my 755, I don't have anything wrong with it. This is my first palm device and I love it, I think I might end up buying a centro for myself. I have the original box and as soon as I get it off my account I'll box everything up and send it out to you.

Awesome. As soon as Sprint ships the Centro from the warehouse, i'll PM you the tracking number, just so you have verification that i've received it. Once i get it, i will immediately have it overnighted to you DHL. Please PM me your address so I can have a label premade. thanks again!

just to verify, what all accessories am i getting? thanks! =))

UPDATE: the pink centro (along with a supposed to be canceled Pink muziq...) are in Hoover, and rescheduled to be delivered tomorrow. the phone arrived today, but my cousin was out of the office right when ups arrived. go figure.

I will personally get the package tomorrow, and will have it shipped out overnight via DHL tomorrow afternoon. I will PM cirrus the tracking number when i have it.

Pink Muziq??? Thanks for the update Power, looking forward to hearing from you soon.

04-02-2008, 07:14 AM
yes, a pink muziq. not quite sure where that came from, but luckily, my cousin wants a new phone, and she likes the pink, so it all works out. lol. I'm just discovered that when i called ups to find out when i can get the packages, they now are expecting me to go get them. so as soon as i get outta bed, i'll be getting the phone(s). ill update later. =)

oops. sorry, forgot to post on here. i have the pink centro in hand. however, i've been dealing with my stupid car issues, and got sidetracked. I will ship the centro out tomorrow. i havent even opened the sprint box yet, so i will send it out exactly as you would have received it from sprint themselves. =)

cirruslyloud
04-02-2008, 09:21 PM
that sounds great. Don't worry about not getting around to it today. I know that stuff comes up. Hope everything works out and I'm gonna get everything in order now so that I can send it out once I receive yours.

powerbookkid
04-02-2008, 11:30 PM
okay great. it will be sent out tomorrow, however, it will also be going priority! my cousin just now told me he doesnt have the hook up anymore... so i will ship it out tomorrow after i drop my brother off for school (the postoffice is right next door, so its nice and easy. =) I'll PM tracking number when available. :)

power, I got the phone and activated it online without a problem. This phone is beautiful and should definately score some points with the wife. Thanks again. I used the same box that the centro came in and I believe I got everything packaged up. Thanks again, I'll be heading to the PO today and get it dropped off. Delivery Confirmation will be included. Will PM with the DC number later on when I return.

I'm crossing my fingers that the 755 will be here tomorrow. I broke my a940 today, and while in the sprint store getting it swapped out, i couldnt help but play with the 755 (never used one before) and now im even more anxious for mine to get here!! (esp considering how much i HATE this BB7130. lol).

How pleased is the wifey w/the centro, Cirrus? ;)

04-09-2008, 06:24 AM
It seems that she doesn't put it down. I have her rumor and I'm definately not a fan of that phone. I'm going to get the Q9c or the 755p again.

powerbookkid
04-09-2008, 08:14 AM
Lol! thats funny. I never put my phone down, regardless of what model im using! haha.

but yeah, i hear ya bout the rumor. Never liked those. Alot of people do, thou, so you shouldnt have any problem trading it for somethin else. :tu:

you're probably not interested, but when my new a940 gets in, you're more then welcome to it. It'll be as new as it can get at this point. lol =) lmk

cirruslyloud
04-09-2008, 06:32 PM
I've had the 940 before and I do like it, but ever since I've had a PDA/Smartphone. I don't think I can ever go back.
