Before I received the pink 64gb brand new deal from woot, before realizing it was Verizon (and assuming I wouldn't be able to unlock the bootloader, which to my surprise I was able to), I went and took a gamble and bought a P3 on eBay.
When this one arrived, it was indeed Google factory unlocked (imei started with 99; immediately bootloader unlockable). What surprised me even more was it was pretty much brand new open box condition. Not a single scratch. Barometer test seems to indicate it's still water resistant too. Looks to be all original parts.
Came with a return shipping label too, very easy to return. But honestly I'm gonna keep it and give it as a gift. Ymmv, but I feel like it was an incredible deal. I really do wonder if these were overstocked open box or return units.

Not Grade A though, it's scratch and dent.

It's also the white model, which imo is the best looking. 64gb tho. https://www.ebay.com/itm/193853753376
Edit: $115

So, which, b/w the 2 (eBay and woot) would you recommend?
