to add on,
The price of Note 3 in my country comes around 800$. I have an standing exchange offer, Note 3 @ 65$ with exchange of Note 2.

This caught my attention instantly and looked like a hands down steal. I quadruple checked the offer with the store manager. I even asked him if he was sure about it. :) Offer Will be available for just a couple of days.

I am not sure if I should go for it, since i am not much aware of the tech stuff.
