The main reason I got my storm is because I just randomly walked into cell phone kiosk (they had a sign saying they had Storms in stock) and he offered me $100 for my curve.

Oh, I took it. I was having nothing but trouble with T Mobile service, seriously, worse reception. ever. The first Storm was plauged with problems but I have one that works like a champ now.

I am glad I made the choice.

I'm sure someone will buy it and you'd be best to get rid of it before it gets outdated.

Hebdog7, does the curve have to be unlocked? I have a tmobile Gold curve, and just switched to verizon storm so it would be awesome if I could sell my curve somewhere.

If you unlock it, it will probably sell faster and you may be able to get more coin for it.



My Curve was Verizon so unlocking it was out of the question. Put it on your local craigslist and maybe ebay. It should sell. Just check what Curves in your area are going for locked and unlocked and price accordingly.

I just sold my Curve for $255 on eBay, locked to T-Mobile. My Nokia E71 is up for grabs and is over $310 now with two days left. I only paid $300 for it new with MSN CashBack... :D

I find out in a few days whether or not I weaseled out of my ETF's with TMO...

If so, (I got my two Storms for $199 each - no rebate needed) then I will have gotten paid about $250 to move to VZW and get two Storms.

My buddy sold his VZW Curve for $200 on eBay...so yes, there's a market, especially for those who don't want to jump on the bandwagon (I'm in the front row of the bandwagon!) right away for the touchscreen BBs.

Personally, I think there will be a market for a QWERTY based BB for a long time. I feel like I'm gonna break this thing, whereas the Curve seemed a bit more ruggid.

That's sweet!

I paid $99 for my curve when I got it thanks to my company discount we get. But they would discount nothing on the Storm.
