I decided to sell mine - wondering what people think the going rate is - and the best way to transact a sale? Ebay?
Thank,

I thought I read $500 recently, but dont quote me. Were talking unthrottled LTE here. Could be really awesome tethering from a jailbroken ipad. Replace your home internet :p
 
I paid $700 for mine (off ebay) a few weeks ago. Seems to be the current going price. Unlimited, Unthrottled LTE. I use over 100GB per month on mine.
 
Looking at the prices they go for now, man I wish I could have snagged one a few years ago for only $500.
 
I still have my iPad AT&T Unlimited Plan which is now on my iPad Pro. I thought hard about this when I read the question. I saw people saying $500 and $1000 and even $3500. I honestly do not know how much data I consume on my iPad Pro but I know it is a lot. I would rather not have to worry about it. I just can't put a price on never worrying about going over data.

I've got two iPad, two iPhones on my regular AT&T and no matter how high the data plan is we come close every month. This one device, my iPad Pro, has unlimited. No worries.

It's worth nothing to me as I gave mine up to switch to a new plan and save a boatload of money on my monthly bill.

I'm on a work network most days and have unlimited data through my employer for my Verizon MiFi when I'm at home or traveling. So, I'm almost always on wifi.

Yeah, me too. I switched my data plan and actually save money every month and get 30GB a month in data plus rollover. Since I only use about 20GB a month shared between 4 devices, unlimited means nothing to me.

Anyone have the T-Mobile plan/s where it's essentially unlimited data? I was curious how much it slows down once you hit your soft cap? And does the Netflix/Hulu etc. data exemption still apply (full speed)?

It's pretty much the same on any carrier when you're throttled. You get 2G speeds, which is pretty crappy for almost everything.

Do services like Netflix continue on without being throttled? I think I read you have to have at least the 6 GB plan for those services to be exempted. Just wondering if it works in practice rather than just theory.

On T-Mobile? Yeah, whatever is included in Binge On and Music Freedom will work just like it does before getting throttled.

My brother sold his At&t unlimited TOL transfer of liability for a cool $900 I was so mad at him.
 
MOD NOTE: It's OK to ask for price advice but actual buying or selling of data plans MUST be done within the Marketplace. If you don't have access, you aren't eligible to buy or sell here.
