Google Nexus 4 sellers experience restrictions on eBay.

All the 16GB Google Nexus 4 takes likes 6-7 weeks to arrive on the Google Play Store, and with carriers and retailers almost all sold out of the particular heavily in-demand smartphone, individuals who absolutely need the handset are looking at the one place in which demand meets supply, eBay.

The 16GB SIM free Google Nexus 4, a device that costs $349 about the Google Play Store or $499 in T-Mobile, was recently coming in at $649. 99 by the eBay seller. Since next, the Google Play Store again had a very good sale of the phone and also the same eBay seller is now asking $699. 99 to the same device. It's the best example of supply-demand in practice. So far, this seller has step up 36 units and it has just three remaining.

But sellers like this blog will soon have to stick to some new rules because auction site has added restrictions towards posting of Google Nexus 4 units available for purchase, thanks to the large sum of units which have been sold. Authorized resellers will haven't any restriction on the volume of units they put in place for bidding or outright sales each week.

Top-Rated Sellers will have the capacity to offer 8 units every week, which would seem to adopt the air out of a great deal of balloons belonging to minor sellers. Sellers meeting minimum performance standards will be permitted to offer 4 units every week and new sellers which have confirmed certain personal information can sell 1 unit weekly.

Ebay will not allow individuals who fail to confirm their sensitive information, or meet minimum overall performance standards to list the particular Google Nexus 4. And those selling Google Nexus 4 related names will be allowed up to 4 listings per few days. It is all in relation to keeping the scammers from benefiting from a device that it really is in extremely high demand through the holiday season, to rip off an unsuspecting as well as gullible public. If you've planned to buy the most current stock Android smartphone in eBay, you cannot simply use a seller's rating.

One eBay expert explained to us that some eBay criminals are actually known to steal the identity of any highly rated eBay seller so as to trick the public. In addition to remember, the current "Buy It Now" prices remain $350 higher than Google is charging to the 16GB variant, and is even $200 greater than T-Mobile's price. If you intend to give the phone out being a holiday gift, you probably have no choice but to spend up for the type, or switch to an alternative phone. For $649, you might purchase an unlocked 16GB Apple iphone 5 or the HTC DROID DNA intended for $599. 99 to name a number of cheaper off-contract phones.
