What are the pros and cons of getting an iPhone on eBay?

Ok, i'm not talking about the risks but i mean as in prepaid.sim cards and 3g and stuff.walk me through this stuff.phones r the only electronics i don't really get. I mean, i understand the phone, just not the plans and sim cards and 3g and stuff.
so if i were to get an iphone on ebay, could i still get 3g, is it in the sim card… I'm dumb.sorry

If the phone is new, it should be the same no matter where you buy it from. If it is used, then you have to consider what accessories don't come with it compared to a new phone, and expect that it may not work as well.

Whether or not you get the extras depends on whether or not they are included. If they are not included, you'd need to buy them separately.

  • What are the pros and cons of a sprint and tmobile merge? Will my coverage speeds change? Will my Tmobile iPhone 5c be technically be running off of sprints network? Sprint is just downright terrible. I don't want to be paying a cent for service I can't use. Please tell me this isn't the case. TMobile uses HSPA+ network, and sprint uses CDMA. Those technologies are 2 totally different technologies, therefore probably rendering them incompatible.
  • Should I Buy the iPhone 5 from Apple or Verizon? (Pros and Cons Please.)? My wireless phone service is on a business plan and only the business owner is our Verizon Account Manager, so I do not have rights to access my Verizon account. I have had my Blackberry Storm2 for over 3 years and I'm wondering if it is better for me to wait and see if Verizon will offer the 64GB iPhone 5 at a discounted price for me or if Apple will offer the iPhone 5 at the same exact price as Verizon including the ability to sync with my Verizon business account?

  • Pros and cons on iphones and androids? Which is better in your opinion? Please don't just put a one-word answer, I need legitimate reasons why one is better than the other. OR why it's a draw, and describe their equal advantages and setbacks. My friend asked me why I didn't have an Iphone and I said that iphones aren't unique enough for me; there's no originality since lots of people have them. Correct me if I'm wrong, or support me, which ever supports your opinion as well.
