I can gurantee you it will be cheaper than $1,200.

It'd also be used a lot less than my phone

Couldn't you get a regular phone and a BTS case or decal or something

---

I kinda like the color.

"Special Edition"?

"Special Edition"?

What makes that irregular? It's the same price. Why buy a blue phone over a black phone?

---

If it's special then it isn't regular

It's special edition because it's a limited run in a different color.

Then why is it so expensive and why would you word the topic title in a way as if to drive the point home that it was more than average?

It's the same price as the other colors. I didn't word it like that. You're taking it that way for no reason.

That's still way expensive for a phone, and yes, it is worded in that way.

That's how much new phones cost. If you think that's too expensive it's unrelated to it being a BTS special edition.

Aren't the new Pixel 4 $800? I think I've heard of new phones as low as $400-$600 but I'm not as sure there tbf.

Edit misunderstood what you meant as just new phones in general, my apologies. Leaving my mistake to not try to hide I messed up.

how can anyone be on the internet these days and not know what the price of flagship phones cost now

I mean there are obviously less expensive phones but it's not uncommon for a phone to be $1,000 or more now. Even $800 is a lot for a phone.

They're all overpriced. They get an upgraded camera at best when it's something like one generation above the previous one.

That's why I'm gonna get this phone and just keep it as long as possible. I need to be really careful though because I drop my phones a lot.

Oh true.

I just misunderstood what you meant. I definitely screwed up there.

As I pointed out before though, people have spent money for certain colors before so I don't even see why it would be a big deal of you had.

Aint you a lil old for this TC?

Don't you know, apparently once you hit 18 you're apparently not supposed to enjoy most things?

Apparently it's part of being an adult.

I went to my cell provider website like "I'm gonna buy my phone in cash because I'm responsible" but I got such a good deal financing it, Pixel 3a for $240 CDN over 2 years. crazy

That's how much new phones cost.

Yes? A lot of new phones cost that much. It's just a fact.

A lot of new cars cost $50-100k, but you wouldn't say "that's how much a new car costs" as a general statement

??? I stated there are less expensive phones but this price isn't uncommon. Are you bored? Looking to argue over something mundane?

Yes and yes and yes, it is uncommon
