Ebay?

[Gardiner14]

I do not use hsolist much at all and have a question or two. My Droid kinda died and i need to get a new phone but my two years is not even close to up. So i was on hsolist and found a phone and was looking at the warranty that it has on there and i am very cerious about it. Is it through hsolist? or it is threw the phone brand or Verizon? Any thing helps, thank you!

You can ask the seller a question. That would be a good one to ask. I've had good luck buying my phones locally through c list. No warranty, but hasn't been an issue at all.

Btw, you can't mention that auction site directly in your post by name. You need to call it something else because it is against forum rules.

First thing to check is if you are past one year in your contract, you should then be eligible for early upgrade. It will only cost you the cost of the phone (two year agreement price) and $25 administrative costs.

They don't give out early 12month upgrades it 18 months

I don't think the bay warranties anything. It is up to the seller or the manufacturer.

Bought my sons HTC on clist worked out well this particular one had an unlock code so it can be used with any provider otherwise you need to find a phone locked to your provider for it to work with your sim card or the sim card in the phone has to be your provider. Clist has several options for phones and then you can either put your sim card into it to try it out instead of getting one shipped from the bay and finding out it is not compatible with your sim card or provider.

I must have been with them long enough then. I just upgraded in December, that is 14 months after I upgraded my last phone, and the only reason I waited that long was because I was waiting for the GNex to be released. Started receiving "you are eligible for early upgrade" texts from VZW back in October.

We get early upgrades as well, 12 months.

We also still have unlimited data plans.

As for buying on the big auction site, that's where I sell all of my year old phones.

Usually I can get enough out of them after a year that it pays for the $200 I have to pay for my upgrade to the newest phone on release date.

huh, I just talked to verizon today they said 20 months till I can upgrade and been with them a long time.

We run 5 phones, full data on two, with about a $250 / month cell phone bill.

Maybe we get a bit of better treatment? Or maybe with 5 phones and a new phone coming out every 4 months +/-, I just steal one of the upgrades from one of the other lines.

I just know that since the X came out, I've upgrade to an X, HTC Incredible, then swapped those out for (2) X2s when those came out and now last fall bought a new Razr.

Once the Razr Maxxxxxxxxx hits, I'll pick one of those up, give my wife the Razr, and sell the X2s I still have.

I'm on a single unlimited account and still get the 12 month early renewal. Maybe it's because I've been with them for over 10 years? Maybe because I'm on unlimited? But I'm not complaining.
