Well if its like the white one what makes you think anyone is going to buy it for that price when they can go to best buy and get for 199? I do like the red though, nice job

I could never understand the need to make a quick buck at others expense, which is why I was even more ed at the price the Google I/O EVOs were going for. I mean if one could afford to go to the Google I/O conference to begin with, one wouldn't think the person was in that much need of money that they would purposely try to rip people off by selling a phone for 400 dollars more than the retail price.
The google I/O thing I can understand since the phone wasn't officially released yet and something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If I had a goolge I/O phone and started the bidding at $.99 it would have still sold for quite a bit if I listed it early enough. Its all about supply and demand

Are you serious? If you are so conserned about college debt then maybe you shouldn't have spent $500 on a phone in the first place.
