I have a Blackberry Curve (8300) for AT&T that is sitting on my dresser collecting dust. The phone itself has a few scratches on the back but in no way effects the phone's performance. The phone is currently covered in a black Blackberry skin so no scratches are visible. The phone will come with the skin and an OEM BB charger, unfortunately I do not have the original box or cd; you can request a new cd from Blackberry or just borrow one from a friend.

I will get detailed pictures of the phone later this afternoon but until then here is what the phone/skin looks like.

That's a heck of a deal - I use one of these for work and it is a great device. The battery lasts forever (I use it primarily for email, not phone).

This would go quickly on craigslist for $75, so someone here should jump on this.

Thanks Nick. The battery life is awesome compared to the 3G iPhone which I am currently using. I wanted to give everyone on here a chance to get it before I went the Craigslist route.

Unfortunately no. I decided to post it on CL for giggles and I had a phone call iin less then 20 mins later. I am meeting the guy at the Varsity at 7.

Yeah, they sell like crazy there. I'm hoping you asked for more.

I did, I asked for $100. Now that the phone is sold, I can admit that I got it for free as Harrison found it a couple months ago and I've just never did anything with it. Free money is how I look at it. :)

I also found a BB Storm in Bloomingdales a couple weekends ago but I know that phone is more expensive and newer so I found a way to get in contact with the owner. I also made a $20 reward for returning it to him. The owner was very grateful.

I bet.

Hey, now you have enough money to make a purchase this week. :lol:

I'm ready whenever you are. I just consider this money to reimburse me for this weekends tickets. :)

I'm a bad person, I don't think I could have given the storm back :lol:

Well considering the phone is on Verizon, we wouldn't be able to use it anyways.

Damn it, I could have. :lol:

Not exactly, the owner of the phone would have to release the ESN off the account before the phone can be used on another. It's not as easy as swapping out SIM cards like AT&T/T-Mobile. :(

Well that's a bummer.

I know that. I've been through enough phones on Verizon to know how it works. ;) Even got burned by someone that sold me a used phone with a "clear ESN" that actually wasn't. That's how I figured out a few tricks with their phones, but that's another story.
Anyway, all joking aside, I would have returned the phone as well. I know I'd want mine to come back to me.
