How to buy iPhone without a plan?
I wanna buy a used iPhone 4 off of eBay but I don't want a plan or a carrier on it so how do you do that?
You make sure the phone is unlocked. But be very careful and buying you this because odds are they say that it is but it isn't. I've seen plenty of people here who buy used phone thinking it's unlocked and it ends up being not only locked but actually has outstanding balances of the payoff.
Most of the iPhones on eBay are being sold without any plan. The phones may be locked to a particular carrier but they don't come with service plans.
Buy unlocked iphone from any shoping store or website
If you don't want to use it with a carrier then why not just get an ipod touch?
- Is it cheaper to get a new iPhone on a plan or buy it unlocked and add a cheap plan? I can either buy the phone for $250 and pay a monthly $80 plan with data for 2 years or purchase the unlocked phone $800 and pay $30 - $50 a month - I might not get data but it wouldn't be a big deal to me, I'm just trying to find a deal thats not ridiculously expensive cause I can't really afford too too much right now. Which would be better?
- If I buy an unlocked iPhone from Amazon can I use it without a plan? I'm a collage student and was wondering if I could buy an unlocked iPhone on Amazon now and use it as an iPod until I could buy a plan from a provider.

- If I buy an iPhone 4s from verizon, could i use it without activating it with a plan? I'm looking to buy a used Apple iPhone 4s from amazon, but i already have a phone and will only be using it as a replacement for my ipod 4. So what i need to know is will i be able to use the phone (download apps and music and stuff) without getting a plan? I realize i will not be able to use the calling, texting, and data.
