|
|
Im stateside and need to sell my Korean Iphone 4 (KT) as I cant unlock it.
Anyone have any experience with this? Im assuming I will have to register / make an account on gmarket. Then prob open a pay-pal account ect to receive payment.
Shipping is gonna be a ****. Wonder if I could ship it for $100 or less.... |

Rather than Gmarket, you should open an "Auction" account. They are both owned by eBay. Gmarket is more for NEW products.
Auction is like Gmarket, except you can also post used goods. |

This would be the phone you couldn't unlock in Korea because it wasn't paid for and now that you have left with it you are trying to sell it back to someone in Korea who then also gets stuck with your bill so they can unlock it or can't use it because it can't be unlocked in America?

So can unlocking the phone be done by someone else other than the phone company tec guy in America?
I dont think they would unlock it as I havent paid for all of it. |

Im leaving Korea with an unpaid iphone. Skipping out on the phone bill essentially.
I will need to get it unlocked to use it in in other parts of the world.
Thus Im curious as to if I can get it done through someone else outside of Korea.
As im sure my korean phone company will not do it with the phone not being paid for. |

yeah i saw this yesterday and immediately thought how pathetic it was. if you are thinking about buying this DO NOT as it is stolen and on the off chance you come to korea with it you will not be able to use it.
again, the op is a thief and a liar, do not buy this phone. |

Not for the sake of the OP who apparently did not honor his contract but for those who might stumble upon this thread,
it is allowed to succeed someone else's used unpaid/partially-paid smartphone as far as the successor resumes installment payment while he/she has the liberty of choosing/switching to a voice call+data plan that suits him/her best. Paperwork is way easier if he/she retains the number already assigned to the device, so that no new phone number needs to be created.
Usual procedure would be, naturally, both parties showing up at an admin branch of the company and hand over one's contract face-to-face. In case the previous owner could not be present (e.g. visa expired, lives on the other side of the country, etc.) yet leaving the smartphone to the successor, it would be wiser to secure a photocopy of the previous owner's ARC before it gets turned in at the Immigration. |
