Nexus 6P 64GB Silver

There's a Nexus 6P 64GB Silver at Costco - and I'm not recommending it at all, just that it's supposed to be cheap.

I'm a little amused at the cheap price tag, because it it $799 and my mind takes me back to where my first car cost me $300. Even these days $800 isn't a small amount of munny - or is it??

It's just a bluddy fone!

My 286 PC cost nearly the same price...

No B2 Talkband.

I got my Nexus 6p 64gb through JB HiFi for 843 including Talkband B2.

800+ 60 for the Costco card=$860
Seems it isn't a bargain.

No, it isn't for gadgets.
Has to think twice if it's worth that much.

nod, well spotted.

Yeah. I guess what I was trying to say is that so many phones are multi-multi hundreds of dollars, and the makers are rolling in munny.

They really shouldn't be so highly priced.

They really shouldn't be so highly priced.

Hopefully their price will fall in a few years time just as the computers' price.
I bought my first Internet enabled computer for 4K+.
(56K modem and a huge 2.5 GB harddisk)
I've spent that much because I could afford it.
Today a much better computer costs less than 2K.

Bought iPhone 4 and 5 for about $800, gave a miss for the 5S.
Bought 6+ for $1100+, gave a miss for the 6S.
Going to give a miss next year for the 7.
Enough from them.
Maybe I'll buy the 8 or 9 for $500-$600 because Apple will be forced to sell them for that much?
