Buying off ebay or Used sites
Purchasing a Blackberry has been suggested to me by several people to the point where it seems like the right decision for me. I have done some research (including great insights on this site) and have wittled the decision down to a Curve 8310, 8320 or 8820.
Given that I do not need the device for work (I am a teacher) I do not want to pay an arm and a leg for a new device. I have been scouring ebay and local "Used" sites and there is a ton out there.
I do not, however, want to end up buying a phone that ends up not working with my Rogers (Canada) plan.
So I guess the question is whether ebay sellers (and others) who advertise "unlocked" or "open" Blackberries really have units that I can simply slip a SIM card into and start using it? I have noticed also that some sellers do not include many accessories or software, which raises a red flag for me.
Any advice or link to a thread where this has been discussed would be most appreciated.
