Hey guys, I don't know much about the new smartphones and all the data plans, for years I've just used a shabby prepaid phone, but now I'm kind of interested in the Blackberry Bold. I know that if I get it in stores, it will be around 50 dollars with a 3 year 60 dollar/month data plan contract, with caller ID and voice messaging etc it will probably amount to 75 dollars/month. So I want to buy a used one off craigslist and just sign up for a 35 dollar/month plan (without data) which will save me a lot of money and I can cancel anytime. The problem is I've never bought anything online so I'm worried about getting scammed.
Just wondering, what steps I should take to getting that new phone and what to check for when I meet up with the seller.
And also, what does it mean if a seller lists the phone as unactivated, does that mean you have to sign up with some carrier for a contract to activate it?
