Deal: Dual-SIM Samsung Galaxy Note 8 drops to less than $500 on eBay

Unlike Apple fans, Samsung lovers have plenty of great smartphone deals to choose from. Although it's only been released on the market for about a month, the Galaxy Note 9 has already been discounted a few times.

The last year Note series flagship, Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is even cheaper if you're looking for a top-tier Android smartphone. The dual-SIM version of the phablet is available for just $499 on eBay, but you'll have to use the promo code PICKSOON at checkout.

Moreover, the deal is only available until 9 pm ET, so you'll have to hurry if you want to buy it. Keep in mind that the unlocked, dual-SIM version of Galaxy Note 8 will not work with CDMA carriers like Boost, Sprint, and Verizon.

Still, everyone who purchases the phone will receive a North American AC adapter for free. You can even choose from four colors: Black, Blue, Gold, and Gray.

A price discount is always very welcome, but this is exactly why Samsung flagships don’t have great resale value. A year and a month after the release of the note 8 it’s price is down nearly 500$

I won't disagree with you, but that's a silly thing to say considering Samsung flagships have the highest resale value among Android phones. If Samsung flagships don't have great resale value, then how bad would you consider the rest to be?

Last year’s flagship to have it’s price reduced by that much has to be really bad for owners who payed the full price. Not comparing resale values here.

Well I am. On top of that, resale value only matters to people who sell their phones frequently. Not everyone sells their phone every year or at all & people who only buy phones every 2-3 years aren't worried about how much they will be able to get for it later on. They sell it & take what they get or throw it in a drawer somewhere.

This is a grey market device with no warranty unless you are in certain countries. You can slash your margins when you are not dealing with warranty claims. Unless you know what you are doing you will be disappointed with this device. I had to flash a handful of firmware's to get a half baked Samsung Pay experience and white pages to work. This is not plug and play Snapdragon unlocked model. I would not recommend this device to a novice. I wish Samsung would make a Exynos for the US market maybe next year.
