As the newer nexus is on the shelves, Galaxy Nexus price reduced to 32k approx for the brand new.
What I wanted to ask that in such scenario what should be the price of a used 9/10 Galaxy Nexus? I am not buying from any individual but from the market.
I have budget range of 25k-27k. I have seen people demanding 29k-30k for 10/10 Galaxy Nexus which is driving me nuts.

What I will be doing now?
Waiting for price drop? or Get a new one simply by increasing budget to 32k?

Its a worthy buy over Galaxy

[MENTION=16914]XaeeM[/MENTION]! Galaxy Nexus for THAT much money at this point? Nah. Save it.

Since a Galaxy S2 can be found in/around 26k from the market, Galaxy Nexus should cost lesser because of its Limitations over S2. Well, 25k seems to be a fair price for a used Galaxy Nexus.

If you have to spend upto 30k and Go Higher and spend some on Galaxy S3, around 40k.

S2 will not be upgraded after 4.1 and now only refurb units are in the karachi market for around 28-30k and used ones are being sold for 25k but those are refurb used sets. I've bought nexus for 32k, wanted nexus 4 but wasn't available at that time plus it's made by LG so that again is a negative point regarding resale.

If somebody has a strict budget of 30-32k and want a new handset then which handset would you recommend other than Galaxy Nexus?
If someone want "new only" then sure, G.Nexus is the only obvious choice which makes sense.

BUT, assuming its a trick question ... which it is :p, there is no mention that asker want Brand New specifically.

My point was simple. If you HAVE to spend that much money, GO HIGHER and spend it on a better product.

One can get a One X as well in 30-32k (used) which would still be a better purchase than Galaxy Nexus.

I purchased the Nexus for a friend and after the 4.2.1 update ... well, lets just say its running out of juice and i personally would never spend Huge Amount of money on it.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
