Refurbished Tracfones

Refurbished Tracfones are only available online. Sometimes they are available through eBay but usually only from the Tracfone.com Website.

Refurbished Tracfones, How Well do They Work?

From my experience they work great. I have had at least seven different Tracfones. I have sold several hundred refurbished Tracfones on eBay without problems. I had one personally that quit working after a couple of weeks of use but Tracfone replaced it for free. They actually sent me a new Tracfone as a replacement, I think they were out of refurbished phones.

I would recommend a Refurbished Cell Phone especially when you can usually get them for Free from the Tracfone or Net10 website.

Free Tracfones

At this time you can get a Free refurbished phone at the Tracfone website. If you buy two 60 minute cards (which are normally $20 each) you can get a Free Refurb Tracfone and the two cards for only $20. When this is offered this is the best deal on a Tracfone you can get.

The Best Refurbished Tracfones

The best working Tracfones that I have been able to get Refurbished are the Nokia 2126, Nokia 1100, Motorola V60i (no longer available), Motorola V176, and the Motorola V170.

The Best Tracphones

As of December 2007 the best CDMA Tracfone is the Folding LG 200c and the best bar style would be the Nokia 2126i. The Best GSM Tracfone would be a toss up between the Motorola W370 and the LG 225 folding Camera Phone. I have not yet seen any of these phones available as refurbished phones. Check Tracfone.com for Refurbished Tracfones.

Refurbished NET10 Phones

NET10 is actually a division of Tracfone. The 10 cents per minute deal all the time is better than most the deals that Tracfone offers. NET10 is only available in areas of the United States where AT&T (formerly Cingular), T-Mobile GSM coverage. Net 10 has just released some CDMA phones that work with Verizon or Alltel network but are not easy to find. All NET10 phones come with 300 minutes when you activate them. You will get 100 extra minutes when you add the first three cards to your NET10 phone.

The Best Prepaid Cell Phone Deal

The NET10 Refurbished phone with the 600 minute card for $60 is the best deal in Prepaid cell phones. Yes you get the 600 minute card and the refurbished phone for $60. When you add the first three cards to the phone you will get an extra 100 minutes. This brings your cost per minute to well under 10 cents a minute with a FREE NET10 phone.

Net10 goes by the Moto "Pay as you Go Made Simple." They are ten cents a minute all the time. You can buy a 300 minute card for $30, a 600 minute card for $60 or a 1000 minute card for $100. The best deal is to buy a card that comes with a phone in the "Buy Phones" section of the website. "Net10 is the best value in prepaid" according to the Compare-Prepaid-Cell-Phones.com Website.
