    I don't see why not, end result is you return a mint condition BB back to Verizon which they can restock it.

    Why would they take back a used insurance replacement? It won't happen.

    Your best bet is to get an insurance replacement and try to sell it on Craiglist or ebay.

    How bad was the Damage? It probably looks better than the one I found Lying in the Street for Weeks. Here's what it Looks Like:

    Because you have to bring it back in "like new condition." You'll be getting a refurb back.

    they refurb the ones you send back to corporate. i asked specifically as mine had a chip in the paint and they said there was no problem with that. i'll call tomorrow when cust service opens and make them the offer, crossing my fingers but not counting on anything.

    I'm usually not one to complain about this, but I don't think this should be in the storm forum. I wasted a good 30 seconds of my life that I'll never get back by thinking I was going to read more info about the storm

    bad news: got my insurance phone it's a chinese hong kong bootleg market phone, the back plate doesn't even have anything protecting the camera!
    good news: getting OEM in box brand new phone after calling and asking what the deal was
    bad news: vzw won't even take a brand new oem in box phone back and give me my ne2 back. looks like i won't be getting a storm till next year i guess. >8-(

    * edit
    do any other carriers offer a 30 day test drive?
    i could sell an in box phone for a few hundred, pay termination fee, port out and then back in when storm gets released.
    >8-) perhaps i should explain that to customer service and ask them to save me the hassle.
