Default Is this Blackberry Storm a good buy?

Hello forum, I m new to Blackberry use and new to Verizon, Im coming from a windows phone. But my new job has recommended that I get Blackberry service for email and messaging. Ive looked around and came across this one on ebay, the seller says he only has the phone and charger but it looks like I would be able to get it for cheap. Would this be a good buy, and how hard would it be to get the other accessories for it? Here is the device for sale:
BlackBerry Storm 9530 (Verizon Wireless) - eBay (item 250558581744 end time Jan-09-10 17:09:47 PST)

lol for $5?

If you want a Storm 1, I'd say do it. You might need to buy a media card, but that would be like $20 at most. If you sign up with VZW for 2 yrs, you can get a Storm 2 for about $180.

I would say be careful of what you purchase on Ebay... especially if it turns out to be a used phone or a refurbished phone... Other than that, I love my storm 1, will be looking forward to the storm 3 if they come out with it with the specifications that is rumored on crackberry.

I love my storm 1 also, but if your going to end paying over 100 dollars for it go to Verizon and just get the S2. Better deal.

Be sure to have the seller email you the pin and esn #s. Then call vz and have them check to make sure that they are clear. If you wind up getting it, use paypal with a credit card. That ray if there are any problems you will have some recourse to get your money back.

Dur. Never mind. I just looked at the date and I guess I'm a little late. Duh.
