Best way to sell this phone?

For being tired of Edge network and getting the text or Facebook message, "I called you and it went straight to voicemail" (with no missed call notification, btw) by countless people on a daily basis? No way.

Again, I'm not bashing the phone. If I had T-Mobile this would be a great phone. But I don't. I have AT&T and will remain with AT&T for its far better network. Therefore, this phone aside from eye candy is useless to me. The Desire is basically the Nexus One on AT&T. Might give that a shot.

I'm sorry,....I about fell out of my chair laughing from this comment.

"..remain with AT&T for its far better network."

ROFLMAO!

Clueless. Totally clueless. You need to pick a Consumer Reports magazine or something and do some reading.

But it's got more bars in more places [/sarcasm].

I wouldn't be caught dead with AT&T ever again, if for nothing other than their TERRIBLE customer service.

You know what? AT&T's network is better than T-Mobile. It's overwhelmed in some places, like San Francisco and New York, but in a lot of places it's pretty good. I've had all four major carriers in the past year, and guess who's network was best where I live? Yep, AT&T.

And they do actually have the fastest 3G speeds. Even Gizmodo had to grudgingly admit that after their speedtests. Don't assume the hype is accurate; look into it before you give someone a hard time.

You lucky sob. Ny/nj Service blows. I will admit easily that the network is fast. But it is an all or none thing- either it works and is fast or it doesn't and you have no service. And it is just unreliable as a primary line.

Isn't that ass-backward? In a major city, with most carriers you're supposed to get better speeds.

This is like saying that you bought a Ferrari knowing it only had a Honda engine in it, and now you are wondering why it does not perform the way it should. You probably should have never bought the nexus knowing you are with att and stuck on edge. But to answer your original question go with Craigslist. I have sold my last 2 phones there. And its free. Just be ready to deal with all the scam emails.
