I really want to get the BB curve 8310 on Pemier ...there is a price difference between a new one and a refub one. The new one is 149.99 and the refurb is 99.99. Is it worth the extra cash for the new one or is a refurbished one ok?


thanks

ive bought referbs in the past and ive never had any problems with them. when you buy the new one youll have to send in the rebate so up front it would be 250 if that matters to you.

Thanks!

jstard2- did you end up ordering the refurb'ed curve? How does it look. I'm getting mine today and was just wondering. Thanks.

I recently purchased a refurbished curve & pearl from at&t. Both phones look brand new, not a scratch on them. I would definitely recommend buying refurbs to save some money.

I got my refurb curve today. The housing appeared to be brand new, it even had the protective plastic on the screen, camera and back of the phone. I dont know if I will ever purchase new again if a refurb is available as an option.

I got my refurb'ed Curve yesterday, and I'll have to agree that the phone looks brand new. It doesn't have a scratch, and came with the "tape" over the screen for protection. No tape on the back, though. It was obvious to me that a person packed the box- it didn't look like a factory packing job, but it looks and works like new, so who cares. Great deal, especially through the premier plan.

All refurbs will have new housing. They just fixed what was wrong with them and place a new housing on them. I think refrubs are better because all the bugs were fixed 2nd time around and its cheaper.

Looking at one of these refurbed Curves myself. How does the warranty compare to the new phones?
