Used Cell Phone

Just wondering if anybody knew of a good site to order used cell phones from? I have an old Galaxy S3 that I love but it is starting to have problems. I refuse to go to Verizon since I am currently out of contract and I am only paying $15 a month for it. I would love to find a newer model Galaxy but am having trouble finding anything affordable. Where do you all find your phones? Anybody have an older one they are not using?

You can find used phones on Amazon or eBay.

$15 a month! Wow! That’s awesome

Plus data. That is why I don’t want to get the “free” upgrade phone. Then each phone goes up to $40.

My friend does the same thing. He also pays $15/mo. No data tho. He says there’s WiFi everywhere he goes so it’s no big deal.

As stated check Amazon and ebay for either a Verizon locked phone or an “Unlocked” phone.

MAKE SURE THAT IMEI IS CLEAR ON A USED PHONE BEFORE YOU BUY IT!!!

Unlocked phones will allow you to put in any company sim card and use it for that carrier. Though some of the bloatware that comes stock on the phone will be present. Depending on how far your willing to go to get rid of bloatware, you could “Root” your phone and remove said bloatware. If your not exactly tech savvy I wouldn’t advise rooting your phone as if you mess it up you can brick your phone. Then your SOL.

I’d recommend a Samsung Galaxy S5. You can change/upgrade your battery. Install an SD card to expand memory for pics/movies/audio files. And it’s water resistant up to 6ft for 30mins.

Any further questions feel free to get ahold of me.

You too @Gunny? Really? Me too. I was in 2old4forza on FM2. Skipped FM3. Then became a big part of 2old4forza on FM4.

Yep. Loved to race. I just was not up to the level of the rest of the guys. All I ever worried about was wrecking other people and I could not enjoy myself. I was basically a nervous wreck.

Swappa is a good resource, too. I just bought my LG G4 used off of Amazon. As long as you have a return window you should be good. I use Cricket Wireless. $90/month for unlimited talk/text 2 lines, 10Gb on one, 5 GB on the other, no other fees, taxes, etc.

I am always last in races yet enjoyed it. Used to be in 2old2race with retrogirl.
