It's middle range, according to the site it should be near new:

With some of these grey market refurbs I'd play it safe and expect the grade to be 1 below claimed grade
wow thats not bad for a cheap phone
been looking for a spare when like i need repairs on my samsung galaxy note 10 or something
It's a great phone, apart from the shitty LG display and some speaker issues (rattles especially on speaker phone)
I have a family member still using one of these and it works well for them, camera is fantastic and battery life
so it would do well as a repair phone or something like that to have in the cupboard in case someone's primary phone broke for some reason
thanks for the info
Yep, I have a regular pixel 2 with a broken camera I use for this purpose
2 year old hardware. this thing would've had some wear and tear. pass
Wow that's a great price.
I had to return two 2XLs due to the USB port (and the garbage headphone adapter) failing. I gave up and bought an S10.
Google still haven’t fixed this issue. My usb C port on my pixel 3 XL is failing and thus I can only use slow wireless charging. Never again…
I also had to returns 2 2XLs just under 8 months. First one the charging port failing within 5 months, then the second one which is refurbished got all connections drop off if the phone go pass to XX Celsius, needed to put under water (literally) for it to cool off before everything back to normal.
The return process is a PITA and it took over a month each time to send me a replacement. In the end support sent me a new phone, sold it off and moved back to Samsung.
Would be great as a travel point'n'shoot.
Provided the one you get has no issues. Also keep in mind travel photos you aren't always right in front of the subject, not having zoom/wide angle can result in really bad photos.
Strange, it says it cannot be shipped to my postcode. I tried 2000, 3000, and 4000.
Hmm I just tried with my postcode also and had the same issue
I had this same issue. It was fine the first time I looked and then wouldn't ship to my postcode (but to Goulburn NSW weirdly enough). I still checked out and it was fine, I got my item.
(This was a Sydney seller shipping to Sydney so I was sure they shipped to Sydney).
Have you tried to pay?
I'm not a catch club member btw
Have you tried to pay?
Yeah, but the Submit Order Now button is greyed out so I can't proceed.
@eug: Like, have you put in your address and card/PayPal?
It's greyed out if it doesn't know all your details yet.
I went to pay with PayPal and suddenly upon knowing my payment information the button went green.
Like this is what you'll be faced with at first and then it will go to this.
After you put all your information it'll come up green.
If you can't get past the first stage, put in postcode 2584.
@pennypincher98: Yup, my address is there. I was trying to pay via credit card. If I click on PayPal, I still cannot click on Submit Order Now as it remains greyed out. I don't get asked to login to PayPal at that stage either.
@eug: That's so strange! I guess just try again later?
Don't know why mine worked (different seller, same problem) but yours didn't.
edit checked again it no longers works it just red with cant be shipped now
same here!
What bands would be supported?
I've watched Pearl Jam and Metallica on mine and it works fine.
It's a Pixel, so all. I can't understand the negs tho….
It's only drawbacks I can see are no 3.5mm earphone socket, only 64Gb and no SD card expansion, otherwise it's comparable to an LG V30…
You get free full size backup to Google photos, so 64gb is plenty.
With Google photos and Spotify, I don't store anything on my phone anymore.
I've used a 2XL for the last 2 or so years. I love mine, I've had zero issues too.
Crackling speakers suck but ok otherwise
I've used a 2XL for almost 2 years (22 months). Problems I've experienced:
- blue screen tint (hasn't really bothered me)
- weird camera crashing bug (patched in monthly update)
- phone not recognising it's own headphone dongle
- phone not connecting to wired Pixel buds.
(Suggests something wrong with the port but charging works fine. Additionally, the buds work fine in other devices).
Haven't had any crackling or rattling speakers, but I know this is also a widespread issue.
These must be all those near new units I sent back early in my phone contact for the following reasons:
Great price imo but I can't get it shipped to metropolitan VIC. Seems like regional NSW and ACT work though?
Can't get it to ship to Brisbane. Gave it up as a bad joke
Yeah no idea, I didn't actually buy one I just thought it was a good price
Try their phone support
Being a grey import. What would Telstra be like using this phone? Would the bands and coverage be affected?
No I don't think so, pixel phones cover pretty much all bands
unfortunately can't purchase it…
Try their support line
If your having trouble purchasing maybe call their support line

Great camera. Almost about to purchase rather than replace the shattered screen for the wife's 2xl hmmm…
Replacement screen costs more than this deal!
Great price if the condition is as good as it states. Heaps of people complained about the screen but I've seen many later stocks and they all seem fine to me.
If this is shipped from USA does that mean we will have to pay gst on top? Ie. Customs will hold the phone until you pay gst?
No this has never happened, gst should be factored into the price
Is it worth it with android support ending in October?
Price has gone up to $320 now
Damn. Did anyone manage to buy one?
