I'm going out of the country soon and need a cheap gsm phone; the ones that use a SIM card. I don't need your SIM card.

let me know what you have for sale. even better if it's free - max I'm willing to spend is $50

60 for a 1st gen iphone.. screen is cracked and i'm not sure what you'd have to do to put it on another provider

but it works and is jailbroken now

be sure to buy a unlocked quad band phone so that you are sure to have signal where ever you go. I think the iphone is quad band too, but you you would need to unlock it which is fairly simple.

^^let me think about it for a little bit. i said $50 max but was really hoping to keep it around $30

k, i'd probably do $50 just to get rid of it. PM if you decide you're interested.

Make sure it is a Quad Band phone or it might not work.

just buy a brand new "go phone" at the store for $20 or $30. i bought the $30 model,nothin fancy but it does the job and its new. they do have more expensive models, but i know you said you wanted somethin cheap. thats what i did when my at&t phone crapped out on me a couple weeks ago and didnt wanna go to the at&t store to spend a lot of money on a new phone or extend my plan. it's meant for at&t user so you can use your current sim card.

^thats what i did in previous years. i was just hoping someone had a "nice" phone for cheap

earlier today a guy on craigslist was going to sell me a motofone f3 for $10. Then when we tried to set up a time for pickup he realized his kid lost it...the search continues.
