Buying a Reconditioned Cell Phone From Net 10
While conventional cellular phone plans are fine for many people, some prefer a "pay as you go" approach. Net10.com provides just such a business model, letting you enjoy wireless access by purchasing a phone and filling it with minutes on an a la carte basis. If you're pinching pennies, a reconditioned, rather than new phone, can help you save some money on your initial investment. Net10.com does sell reconditioned phones, though you may have to do a little digging to find them.

Tips & Warnings
Consider whether or not a prepaid service is right for you. Typically they are best for customers who will use their phone on a limited basis, or who wish to keep themselves on a strict budget. As with any cell phone contract, it's important to read the fine print before entering into a contract. See Additional Resources for a good discussion of some of the pros and cons of prepaid plans.
Before entering into a contract with a cell provider, check all the provisions of your contract.
