[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1827368, member: 46727"] @Mike: Be careful buying a used or refurbished phone from Amazon. Even though Amazon will make the purchase good, there are a lot of not so honest resellers that are selling goods through Amazon. I had an experience with them some time ago when I purchased an iPhone 5C from them for my wife. The phone was advertised as new which meant I could purchase Apple Care on it. Apple refused the Apple Care purchase and informed me the phone I purchased was actually a replacement phone they supplied under warranty for another that was defective. The phone was new and I never had a problem with it but it was falsely advertised. Amazon offered to refund my money but since the phone was new we kept it. [/QUOTE]
