I just recently switched from Nortel to Cingular. Now, I bought my phones already, but I have yet to buy the covers, carriers and car chargers (plus any other accessories I may decide are necessary). I made the mistake with my Nortel phones of buying the accessories at the Nortel store where I signed up for my plan. I found out from someone later that I payed about 3x more than I needed to for all that crap. And that brings me to my first question. What sort of places can you go to to get these cell phone accessories for various companies and get a good price? Also, now that I am with Cingular, I don't need my silly Nextel phone anymore. Can one get any money for these things? If so, where? Danka.
Wal-Mart for the pieces, eBay to sell the phone. Before you list the phone on eBay it will give you an average starting price and the average the phone sells for on its site.
get all accessories online. You can get all your accessories for the price of one at the cingular store. Try ebay, amazon, etc etc. as with your old phones, well you can give em to your lil ones to play with if you have any kiddos. Or just sell em on ebay and use that cash for the accessories.
