Re: How to tell if your replacement is refurbished

sure,

sprint gets the phones users have asked to be replaced. sprint hands them to a 3rd party who solely does reconditioning of handsets for a living. they then send them to the insurance company who then sends you, the end user, the refurbed handset.

there is a hardware shortage of some components so that is delaying the NEW In BOX handsets from being shipped since they are waiting for components (this has been talked about on the internet, HTC admitted they are/were having shortages).

theres probably plenty of refubs ready to be sent as replacements. usually within the first month to 6 weeks there are replacements of any phone ready.. this does not apply to the EVO but to any phone..
