As the title states, I have a Samsung M250 and I'm wanting to let go of it.
I just want to sell the phone, and I don't want any trades at the moment since I already have several phones. I'm torn about selling this phone, but I have some bills that I need to pay.
I don't know how much to ask for the phone. Plus another factor is that the charger port is a bit flaky, and I can only get the phone to charge if I move the charger port to the side. I will show pictures of how I charge the phone, and that's how I've been charging it the past few months that I've had it.
As for price, I honestly don't know how much to ask for it. I know it's rare and all, but still, I really don't know. I guess throw an offer and I'll consider it. Thanks.
Edit: Pictures work now.

Charger port that the a900 and m500 use. Uses the exact same battery. I will take pictures of the battery and the backside of the phone. I will post pics tomorrow when I'm back at home.

I never had an issue with signal strength to tell you the truth. I don't know if it's because I live in a big city (Houston) What I truely love about the phone, and what I'll really miss is the camera. It's a 2.0 MP and I just found the quality of the pictures to be pretty good. The quality seems to be way better than the pictures my RAZR 2 takes.
i can do $100
BrettW, if no one else seems to have anymore interest in the phone. I'll accept your offer.

The phone comes with a charger and a data cable. As for it being able to be fixed at a Sprint store I'm not sure. I never tried taking it since they never actually carried the phone.

It was a phone that was being used to test the Sprint VUE service which was going to be the next Sprint TV service. They never sold this phone and it was only given out to so many ppl.
It works on sprint as a few members on here have used it.

Right, more a collectors item and a status phone as no one really has one.
If it uses the same battery as the a900, its a cheap external charger to get it to charge properly and just pop in a charged battery. The a900 charging port would go off on some of them also, probably an issue with a solder joint or soemthing simple.
Did the OP say he has a charger for it?

Just a regular charger for it. Same as any Samsung charger.

Sorry, I just want to sell right now. Thanks though.
Edit: Actually, the battery is a slight thicker than the m500's battery. The battery to the M500 that I have here fits in the M250, but the M250's battery doesn't fit the M500. I just wanted to point that out.
