The phone I ordered was described as new on Amazon and it was in fact brand new in the original box. It was sold thru Amazon by Bonanza Deals. I ordered it because my Verizon contract had expired and I didn't want to extend it for 2 years, especially since I extended a contract on another line by buying a new phone from Verizon and it died within a month and they replaced it with a refurbished phone. I activated it easily over the phone and it didn't extend my contract. I'll never buy another phone directly from Verizon!

it was slightly used, but in good working shape. it came just as advertised and has been working without any problems. it came on time. i have no problems with the vendor. we are also on VZ and it was a snap to get the phone activated. for the money, we couldn't have done better. as far as i know, you can add this phone to your current plan without having to change your contract - however, you should talk to VZ to make sure.

Contact Verizon and find out their plans and rates. I purchasedmy device and never used it because I was able to obtain other service.

The one I bought was from 'Tablet Distributors' and fulfilled by Amazon. It was a new phone with the AT&T box, stickers in place and all of it's booklets, etc. May have been over-stock? It was unlocked, and we use RedPocket service with it. It's been a good phone so far and is a great substitute for an iPhone.

It is brand new. No sim card. I replace it for verizon and it is verizon phone. Easy to activate. Not sure unlock or not.

Email the seller to see what they are offering - if any. I don't have one & when u activate a phone with Verizon it is your own device so you can't add the insurance.

The seller calls it new, but it will ship in generic packaging without the manual, and it will be a refurbished or used phone at a "New" price. Check the IMEI number on the battery (or the one underneath a sticker if you have an especially sneaky seller) with your carrier, who will tell you that the phone has been previously activated, and is used. Then try to get a refund. The seller may issue a refund if they've only been caught a few times, but if they're like my seller, they will accept your return, promise to reimburse the return shipping, and then will suddenly go out of business right after you send the phone back. My seller disappeared off Amazon, "contact seller" leads to a bounce-back email from Amazon, and the phone number included in the package had been disconnected. But I'm sure this seller has re-established him/herself on Amazon, simply by using another Z-Shop identity. Filing an A-Z Amazon claim will get your purchase price refunded, but not the return shipping, even if you provide proof that it was promised to you. If you buy a "New" phone and actually receive a used or refurbished one (remember, check the IMEI by calling your carrier), you should not have to pay return shipping--the item is Not As Described and the listing is fraudulent. Refuse to send the item back until the sender provides a postage-paid mailing label via Amazon (don't fall for any "contact us directly" requests, or promises that if you pay shipping they will refund you). Otherwise file an A-Z Amazon claim before sending the item back.

hi erik, i bought this device and it was original, indeed it comes with the original packaging. Any warranty? at the moment of order it i assumed that no claims for any problem with the phone will be consider by the reseller. In my case, 5 months later i can told you it was unnecessary. Good luck!

Yes it is a brand new phone. Exactly like you but from the store. Just gotta have a SIM card for it. Like mine is At and T. It is not locked on a specific cellular network.

The phone is ready to activate, but you will need to provide a Verizon SIM. Verizon will provide one to you if you are a current or new Verizon customer. Thanks!

dear customer we as you to please check with your provider on service compatability with this phone it is a working phone and it is just the phone and battery only if you need a charger we can find one for you but it normaly cost's more for that. we do not activate any phone and it is in great condition. so please note we do all we can to help you but most activation is customers responsibility due to we do not have any of your account info nor do we have access to your account. thank you and have a great X-Mas.

I just bought one for $39 from Luuki_Luuki and it is in perfect condition. It was not sold as new, but used. The $109 one is in the new category but if you read the description, it sure sounds like a used one. Don't pay twice as much for a used phone from a seller that is bending the rules. I bought the $39 "used" one and it is in perfect condition. It came in a box labeled refurbished but if you had told me it was new, I would have believed you.

You should return to seller, any phone that has an prior account, possibly past issues ,Verizon will not activate.That has always been with Verizon they are not like other phone companies. Sorry

Since I only needed this phone on a temporary basis I used Verizon's pre-paid service but it still worked fine. I didn't have a number that I had to keep but I do know that if you already have an active number and are trying to either switch phone services or are simply switching phones that the company representative you are speaking with will ask you if you would like to keep your old phone number or switch to another available one. I don't think this phone comes with a charger, so just make sure you have one that will work with this phone before you get it because I don't think it comes charged... Good luck and hope these comments help! Since I only needed this phone on a temporary basis I used Verizon's pre-paid service but it still worked fine.

No. It is not new. It came in a generic box and a generic charger. I just pray it's not stolen like last phone I ordered at a online phone store a couple of years ago.

My was like new. It will depend on the individual phone and how well it was taken care of. The seller I got it from had a good review and the phone was clearly described along with actual pictures of the phone I was purchasing. I got a great deal!
