Selling your cell phone made easier.

Saturday, April 12th, 2008

The time may have come where you have decided to sell your used cell phone to a buyer such as myself or another company. I am going to provide some tips help make sure you get your money quicker and easier.

First and foremost if you are on a CDMA network such as: Sprint, Verizon, Alltel, US Cellular, etc, make sure that your account is clear. Meaning you have no balance. Also, have them provide in writing that they have released your phone from your account. Sometimes, you may not owe any money but your account may still be attached to the phone and the person you are selling it to will have problems reactivating it. (ahem, Sprint, ahem excuse m..)

If you were on a GSM network such as AT&T or T-Mobile, you will not have to worry about this since your account info will be stored on your sim card and not the phone.

Next get together any accessories, boxes, manuals, etc that you have for that phone. This will aid in helping you get more money for your phone.

Lastly, unless you are selling to a person who is going to use it for themselves, you can not expect top dollar. When people come to my store to sell me phones it amazes me the number of people think that just because they paid $200 for their phone 2 years ago, I should give them $170 today. Myself and others like me are in it to make a profit and provide cash to you.

So hopefully this article will aid you in the future when you upgrade to that new Iphone or top of the line cell phone and need to get rid of that used cell phone you no longer need. If you have any questions, just leave them in the comments section and I will answer them.

Unlock your Iphone, for free!

All I ask is that you comment on my blog!

I typically try to avoid free software, with the exception of open source like Gimp, Inkscape, etc…, because I believe you get what you pay for in most instances. However my wife bought an Apple Iphone a few days ago and wanted to get it unlocked so she could use it with T-Mobile.

So she went to ebay and found some software a guy was selling, which turned out to be free if we knew where to look, and bought this software. Well I am giving away this info for free! I tried it for myself and was able to successfully able to unlock my wifes Iphone.

Now a word of caution, I first downloaded it to my laptop which had Vista on it and had some issues. I then downloaded it to my Windows XP laptop and it worked like a charm. This is the easist software I have ever used for Iphone unlocking. Just do me a favor, in return for me providing this freebie to you, could you just comment on my blog. Thats all I ask!
