Buy the unlocked international Samsung Galaxy Note 9 for $770 from Ebay

We've seen some deals on the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, including one from T-Mobile that we told you about earlier today. With 36 month financing from the carrier, and as much as $360 in bill credits from a trade-in, you can buy the 128GB model for only $15 a month. But let's say that you don't want to be a T-Mobile subscriber (maybe you're allergic to magenta), but still want to save some hard-earned cash on the Galaxy Note 9. One place you can turn to is eBay.

An eBay seller carrying a positive feedback rating of 99.2% is offering the unlocked international Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (SM-N960F/DS) for $769.99. Since it is an international model, the Exynos 9810 SoC is under the hood as opposed to the Snapdragon 845 Mobile Platform employed in the U.S. variant of the phone. Also, keep in mind that this version of the Galaxy Note 9 is compatible with GSM carriers only. That means that T-Mobile and AT&T subscribers can use this particular device in the states.

The seller's listing notes that there are a limited quantity of phones available at this price. Thus far, 357 units have been rung up leaving approximately 63 handsets remaining. The Lavender Purple is out of stock, but Metallic Copper, Ocean Blue and Midnight Black are available. We should point out that the phone does not come with a U.S. warranty, so caveat emptor.

As always, international units also don't get the good version of Samsung Pay, with better deals and rewards.

I don't know why Samsung Pay can't be based on your SIM and not the firmware. Been running unlocked international Samsung phones since the S7. Not fun downloading and flashing firmware until you find the right combo.
