Ya I think I still have one with 10. Is that alright?
We are just a small team of engineering students starting a business so 10 should be enough, 50 preferable, we are also considering buying on eBay.
Right now we are considering this:

Any recommendations before buying this kind of accounts?
@skybucks feel free to pm me some details, (we want to buy a few more for some of our clients) thank you for your fast reply
So what do you do the next time when gmail goes down? Back to square one?
How about getting some VPS/cloud instance from a reputable and reliable provider and hosting your own mail server? I mean something like Prometeus/Iwstack, RamNode, Digital Ocean?
I got an old uni.cc one (100 users) that I'd be will to let go of -- domain not included of course as the uni.cc domain is gone now...
@rds100 how often this happens and what makes something like Digital Ocean more stable than gmail?
It has happened to us twice (with Live domains) in the last month, the problem is still going on:
@Spirit the last thread about gmail fckup i read was a few weeks ago i think?
edit: quick googling turned out this - http://thenextweb.com/google/2013/09/23/having-problems-with-gmail-today-dont-worry-its-not-just-you/
I remember it but personally didn't experienced it yet in all those years. However I experienced downtimes with 2 hosts out of 3 you recommended. I am not saying that it's bad to host mailserver with VPS providers but also not buying argument that "gmail can go down, host is with VPS because of that".
@Spirit ok, i agree
I've only used one of the 3 mentioned above and haven't experiened any outage worth mentioning yet, but i haven't used it for anything important or intensive either.
That was the first major event in years, and got fixed in a couple of hours. Hardly comparable to the uptime of an LEB host.
@amarc
It is in: Domain settings -> Subscriptions & Billing
Another way to see it is:

I can provide a .org domain with 100 users for $50. PM me if you're interested.
I also have some domains I no longer need that have free GApps accounts attached. A low-value domain with 10 users would be less than 10 USD.
I have a now-useless domain (currently in the cheaper end of redemption, too..) with 200 accounts if OP (or anyone else?) wants it.
I have one with 20 or 50, I dont really remember. The domain is not included, but is not registered atm.
Can you change the domain?
From Google:
"If you've already purchased a Google Apps subscription for your current primary domain, you can't transfer your subscription to a new domain name. When you create a new Google Apps account for a new domain name, you will be charged for each user account that you create. If you don't want to purchase Google Apps for two separate domain names, disable automatic renewals on your current account and make the change at the end of your current subscription."
You can add new domains, but it is not possible to change the "primary domain"
There's nothing special about a primary domain, other than catch-all accounts.I believe you can do that only for the primary domain.
I agree with @joelgm
All the functionalities are still there
@Santiago
I have a google apps account with 100 users but no domain. Let me know if you're interested.
So who still got a google apps account? I'd be interested on something less than $10...
I have a 10 free user one
That's very optimistic but it doesn't cover even domain reg fee.
Are there any disadvantages to getting someone's free Google Apps account if it has an expired/unregistered primary domain? Say, could someone else register the domain and somehow take control over the account?
Yes of course. Pretty simple.
Domain owner need to go to password reset page https://admin.google.com/YOURDOMAIN.COM/VerifyAdminAccountPasswordReset to verify domain ownership with code he get from google and set it up as CNAME in domain DNS record. Once this is confirmed google sends him reset url to secondary password recovery email address he entered in this process.
Bigger problem than losing account itself is that person with domain control gain access also to all mail accounts, google documents, and other apps... under this account.
I was about to mention all of that, you are more secure buying the domain that has google apps already setup.
@DalComp I do have a domain that I can push for 8 USD. I'll PM you the details.

@Santiago Can you PM me from where you got 50Users. I require more users for my client. Thanks
