This isn't the "Queen of England". I'm curious as to why Sprint is buying phones on Ebay and especially mine? Quality control? Trying to find phones stolen by employees? My phone was obtained legitimately but I'm still curious and am wondering if I'm doing anything wrong selling the phone I got using my contract renewal. Any real help would be appreciated.
you actually started a thread about this? if you didn't steal it, so what! dan heese could buy my phone back! i'll even throw in some moto s9s!

You really wouldn't find it weird if you were selling something on Ebay and the company that sells/makes it, buys it from you? I'm thinking maybe there's gold or a big diamond in my phone and they're trying to get it back.

i wouldn't be concerned in the least. when they sent you the upgrades, you signed new contracts yes? because that's all sprint cares about is your monthly fees. that's where they make their money. these phones are a dime a dozen. ebay is strange anyways because i bought a touch from a guy in texas. the box was empty and the esn was active in ca. after the seller saw what happened, he sent a new one that came from sprints' warehouse in ky. go figure!

Re: Sprint bought my phone on Ebay
that's all i'm thinking too...it's just someone who choose 'sprint wireless' as their user name and maybe just buys and sells sprint products. i wouldn't sweat it. bout to sell my brand new replacement touch pro and sprint is more than welcome to buy it!

Sprint buys used phones cheaply on ebay and Craigslist to resell as refurbished phones and make a profit/have extras in case of repair services.
