Hey, good thread. My condolonces to your lost. Good job in turning the thread to something postive Just thought you should add one more thing when checking the phone.

Might wanna check the IMEI number on the box (if sold together). If it's different, there's a possibility that the phone is stolen. Of course the seller could say that the box was lost and thus a different box is used. If that is the case, then it is the buyers discretion that matters. Trust your gut.
