re: Certified reconditioned cell phone

I recently started a thread about the absurd prices of new phones (got 20 down votes from all the OT ballers) on the AT&T Next plan and I mentioned the same thing as you. No way in hell am I paying almost a $1000 (shoot, I wouldn't even pay $500) for a new cell phone....frick that! Anyways, I dabbled on Swappa a bit and it seems like that is where I will buy my next phone. If you just get the model that was 1 or 2 before the most current one, you could usually get it for about $250-300ish.
