Good/Fair Condition Nexus 5 (with one bit of broken trim) BUT SELLING WITH A TON OF ACCESSORIES!

I am selling my good condition Nexus 5. It has ONE bit of damage, which is that a portion of trim below the sim card tray broke off, unfortunately. It doesn't really affect the tray itself, except for having to be careful about how it slides in, but a case covers up the broken bit and I've never had an issue with it since it broke. The Nexus 5 is also a little bit finicky with wireless charging, as in it doesn't always stay in charging mode, but this may or may not be a problem for some.

To make up for the damage and the weird wireless charging inconsistencies, I'm selling the Nexus with a bunch of my accessories. It comes with:

The original box and original charger
A reddish-pinkish slim case
A black (with the same texturing as the Nexus 5 itself) Ringke SLIM case
A black/clear Spigen Ultra Hybrid case
A white or blue (your choice) PowerBot Wireless Charging Puck

Please message me with any questions or if you need more pictures!

Listing approved. Thanks for using Swappa.

Do you need to charge with the wireless charging device or can it be charged via micro usb as well?

It can be charged through the normal USB port as well. The phone actually works great, minus the cosmetic damage at the SIM tray and the weird inconsistent wireless charging.

Mar 02, 2015 - 03:46 PM

Would you do $220?

aleemk Seller
- Mar 02, 2015 - 04:18 PM

Considering all the stuff I'm giving away with it, I think $220 might be too low.

Mar 05, 2015 - 07:25 AM

270 is to high. Your really only including a wireless charger, no one cares about cases.

230 based on other prices (there's a reason everyone over 250 isn't selling unless it's in mint condition)

aleemk Seller

Are you offering $230?

Mar 05, 2015 - 07:40 PM

Is there anything else wrong with the phone, like is there any glitches or problems while using the phone?

Austin - no, the phone runs pretty good. Its running 5.0.1, so there are the normal new Android version issues, but 5.1 should fix those, and this being a Nexus device, it'll get the update. The phone itself is perfectly fine. I actually really enjoyed using it. The screen is my favorite part.

Mar 05, 2015 - 07:57 PM

I have the Nexus 4 and it has a few glitches in it, I'm just tying to make sure that the 5 wont have the same porblem.

aleemk Seller

Define glitches... there's hardware stuff, which my N5 doesn't SEEM to have any of; then there's software, and 5.0.1 isn't exactly bug-free. Are you running 5.0.1 on your N4?

Mar 05, 2015 - 08:05 PM

Yes I am running 5.0.1 One of the glitches is the sensor on the phone seems to turn the screen off at random times for no reason. I thought this was from dropping my phone once but when I had it checked out they said it was a glitch in the phone.

aleemk Seller
- Mar 05, 2015 - 08:45 PM

Ah, gotcha. All the sensors and everything work just fine. Only thing that I noticed that was annoying is that the proximity sensor is pretty sensitive, so when I'm on the phone and tuck the handset between my ear and shoulder, I inadvertently activate the screen. But that might be the way I hold it in particular, so YMMV. Other than that, I really enjoyed using this phone. Honestly, I'm only selling it because I managed to get a OnePlus One.

If you can come down to $250, you have a deal :)

aleemk Seller

Meet in the middle at $260?

aleemk Seller
- Mar 09, 2015 - 08:20 PM

And, considering 5.1 was released today, I'll flash the 5.1 factory image to the N5 before I ship it.

- Mar 09, 2015 - 10:50 PM

It's all good, I'm going with a OPO for $320 from on here. Best of luck :)

Mar 10, 2015 - 09:17 PM

So if it were to stay on the q charger it would charge or is there an hardware defect...?

aleemk Seller
- Mar 11, 2015 - 01:17 PM

It charges, but sometimes after a minute or two it loses the connection and I have to replace it. I'm not sure if I'm just not finding the sweet spot, but I know that if I push down on the phone when I place it, the connection seems to work better.

Mar 13, 2015 - 08:39 AM

I will purchase at your $260 offer if you're still willing?

Mar 13, 2015 - 08:49 AM

One proviso, actually: did you buy from Google directly? I don't want carrier blocking problems.

aleemk Seller
- Mar 13, 2015 - 01:01 PM

I'm the second owner - the first owner bought it from the Play Store pretty much as soon as it was released.

Mar 13, 2015 - 03:08 PM

I intend to use it on Sprint-based MVNO Ting, and Sprint has recently put something in place that is now blocking a LOT more phones than previously (including one I have had for a while that Swappa says is fine, but a couple of Sprint MVNOs that I tried cannot take). Is there any way I can verify the ESN/IMEI will clear with Ting? (Don't post it here, though.)

Mar 16, 2015 - 04:47 PM

aleemk, are you still interested in selling or not? I need to confirm this will be accepted at Ting - can you confirm this and/or allow me to have the IMEI to check for myself?

aleemk Seller
- Mar 17, 2015 - 12:39 PM

I'm interested in selling - however I am not interested in giving out my IMEI... been burned in the past.

Mar 19, 2015 - 02:25 AM

Just a tip: I've gone ahead and purchased from another listing where the seller was more immediately responsive. They checked the IMEI at Ting themselves and posted pictures of Ting's go-ahead with the latter half of the IMEI blanked out. Ting also appears to allow you to "share" the result without revealing the IMEI if you can provide an e-mail address. You might want to add pictures like the seller I purchased from did.

Sorry for the delays in responding - I'm a tax professional and it's a crazy time of year for me.

Thanks for the tip about the IMEI.

I've decided I'm going to take this phone off the market for right now. I can't dedicate the time to potential buyers and that's not fair to them.
