whe you talk to sprint, ask them if the seller had reported it lost, or stolen. if it was an insurance replacement, and they allow you to keep service on the phone, good. if they dont, i make sure you find out how the esn became bad (phone reported lost) then sell it on ebay as a bad esn phone. if it was stolen, sprint needs a police report number to replace any stolen phone under insurance. i see bad esn phones on ebay every day. i would imagine if ebay thaught it was fraudulant, they would remove the listing. just for future reference, if you buy off ebay again, ask the seller for imei, serial, and esn of the phone to verify its not a bad phone. always to this through ebays email system to cya. if the seller refuses, move on...................
