Lumia 1020's on sale for $139

[harmon rabb]

Thought some of you bros might appreciate this: Nokia Lumia 1020 RM-877 (B-Stock, 32GB, Black, Generic Box) #Lumia1020_B-STOCK - Expansys USA

I ordered one to play with. I also have an S6, so it'll be interesting to compare the pics that an average joe picture taker like myself can manage between the two.

Would buy one if I was in the states right now

You already have a garage full of stuff Guytronic. I've seen you making it rain at the Buy Sell forum.

I wonder if this can be used at AT&T.

So far nothing even came closer to the good old 1020. Enjoy the best phone camera on the market buddy

When I searched on RM-877 (the phone referenced in the link) it came up as the AT&T 1020. Take that for what it's worth. I wouldn't mind having a 1020 but considering it is a used device with a non-removable battery that's several years old I have no interest in tempting fate. I love the camera on the 1020 but not to the point I'm spending $130 on something that may not work longer than 6-7 hours at a time.

Every serious photography site I can find rages the s6 and g4 as being better, but it'll be fun to see what I can get out of them.

Yeah I didn't see it was refurbed when I ordered. Doh.

For those who don't know - B-stock means refurbished. You can get the refurbished 1520 for about $230 on Expansys-USA too.

 

[Guytronic]

I think at 139 smacks it's worth it...
Far as I know LIPO batteries can hang in for years.

I'll report back on the actual condition when I receive mine.

Factory refurbished?

 

[triageatdawn]

Not sure. Wish I could link you but I have less than 10 or 15 posts so I'm not allowed to post links on here. They didn't specify whether the devices are carrier or factory unlocked.

B-stock means these devices are refurbished, may contain slight imperfections or signs of wear, and in this case come in generic boxes.

 

[Guytronic]

B-Stock probably means devices checked for function.
If the unit doesn't look like it has been thru combat it receives the hard reset and a wipe down.

I'm betting most of these were just returns, warranty swaps or corporate turn-ins and weren't mistreated.
My previous experience with B-Stock or refurbs has been good.
I've never been disappointed to date.

I thought some of you might find this helpful...


I mailed Expansys this morning asking if the RM-877 models were unlocked and I received the above reply very quickly.

 

[harmon rabb]

welp, i received a ship notice today on the 1020. when i get it in, i'll report on the condition of it, then go have some fun comparing its camera to my s6.

 

[Guytronic]

They just notified me that the black phones are delayed so they offered a yellow one to me instead.

Edit:
Expansys notified me they shipped a yellow 1020 and knocked 10 bucks of the price.

 

[harmon rabb]

i'd have taken a yellow one in exchange for $10 off. why didn't I get that option? no fair!

 

[harmon rabb]

my 1020 is currently in Memphis. needs to hurry and make its way to Houston.
