Free iPhone without contract?
I currently buy and sell phones on craigslist. Recently, a seller of phones contacted me asking if i wanted to buy 3 Brand New iPhone 4 devices for only $130 without a contract. I have bought from them one other time and got the same deal. They were somehow able to get hold of new phones often, fast, and extremely cheep because they were sold to me for such a low price.
What exactly do they do to come across these phones? I think I heard that a sales rep or manager at a Carrier retail store may have the power to sell phones out of the store? Or they can order contract phones and then terminate the contract right after you got the new phone? I don't know if any of these are True but if you know how they come across these phones, I would love to hear the answer!
NOTE: the phones were not stolen, I checked the ESN's of each phone and I have never gotten a Bad ESN.
Those people steal the phones from pedestrians. Don't buy them it is bad. And you could get AIDS
- Will buying an iphone in contract and unlocking cause contract immediate fee? If i buy a iphone for example on att contract and unlock it, will att charge me what's left on the contract or will i just go by like nothing happened and free of contract? I haven't seen this but it makes quite a bit of sense for companies… Not sure if they do however.
- Which is better iphone 5s plan, contract or no contract? I want to get an iphone 5s but i don't know if it's better to get a contract plan or a no contract plan. I would be having to pay every month with a contract and that's annoying. Yet with a contract i wouldn't have to pay that much for the phone would i? If i got the non contract i would get to pay the bill when i want but i would have to pay full price for the phone.
- Should I get iPhone 5 or iPhone 4S? No contract or with contract? I don't know what exactly is so much better with the 5 compared to 4S? I'm thinking to get it with no contract because I'll be in Europe over the summer so I'll need another contract over there for a few months so that likely wouldnt work if I got a 2 year contract here in the US is the 5 much more expensive than the 4s? and does the price vary a lot if I buy with/without contract?
- Is the iPhone 5s better with a contract or no contract? Which is cheaper? I was thinking about getting an iPhone 5s and I was just wondering if no contract or contract was cheaper. I saw that T- mobile offered a no contract deal, yes I know you have to pay it all up front. I just want to know which would be cheaper in the long run.
