is this a goid price for a used 920?

[RavenSword]

So, I've been using my friends old Lumia 929 for a little over a month now. He has since moved onto a galaxy S4, and I asked if I could use his old Lumia 920 so I can see if I liked windows phone. With 8.1, I think I want to own a windows phone device, even if it just as a second device to use at home on wifi.

He's selling the phone for $150 and I'm wondering if that's a good deal? The phones in pretty good shape outside of the bottom right corner of the phone being a bit dented. (maybe from a drop? Don't know, was there when he first gave it to me)

I know att is offering a refurbished 925 for 80 dollars off contract. Is that a better deal?

Get the refurbished one. You'll have support too from AT&T if anything goes wrong.
But 150 for an unlocked device is a pretty good deal.

Is it locked to AT&T, or is it unlocked? That affects the value, but either way $150 is quite high. You mentioned a cosmetic blemish. I'd say maybe $75 if locked, and $100 if unlocked. Either way, if you can buy a refurbished 925 for $80 that would be a much better deal.

Locked as far as I know. Honestly I'm not seeing that refurbished lumia 925 on the AT&T site anymore off contract for 79.99. Might be over

The blemish isnt gigantic. It's just the corner is bent up some. I'm unsure if he'll go lower than 150

If he won't go lower I'd look around. For $150 you should be able to get a 920 in mint condition with lots of accessories.

Where ? I don't see those prices for a 920 anywhere.

you could always get a replacement body, change the color too while you're at it if you're feeling like some DIY.

Sorry, I meant to say that the blemish ISNT gigantic. It's just the corner tip.

Around $120-$150ish...

On eBay, they are going for around $140ish. Even on Swappa, they are going for around that price. I recently got one for $135 in very good condition. The ones in the 120ish range had dents and scratches on the screen.

$150 for used is max I'd pay, but I'd ask for pictures of the phone from all angles. You can get a new one at Amazon for $200
