Definitly put it back to stock and relock or the end buyer could have issues getting it activated.

you could offer to put a custom rom on it depending on what the winner of the auction wants, IE. Phone comes stock, rom can be upgraded if requested, any questions please message me.

Activating by phone wouldn't be the issue but you never know how some buyer intends to do it...

If they run into the anal retentive store tech he will look to see if the phone is a verizon phone before he even checks the esn and tell the guy he can't activate it.

Just make sure you tell the buyer the deal...
Just don't take for granted that all ebay buyers are as slick or knowing about the phones as we are! My guess is half the bidders will even ask you to explain what a custom rom is! LOL Some might even think they will get free calls iof they buy it! LOL

lol yea i wouldnt think most ebays would even know what a rom is i guess i just though a person looking for a tp would be a lil more of a techy and find extra value in the rom already being flashed?

I could see where your coming from, but like asphyx said, they could take it to a really like "by the book" store, and they may not do it because its not an actual verizon rom, but my question is, how come they can't just call over the phone and do it themselves?
