Ok I am not up to date on cell phones. I want an iPhone that is unlocked to use with tracphone that uses att towers. I guess it must be gsm. I know I will have to get a sim card from tracphone. I would not mind a renewed one. Which on and where? What can I get for around $125.00. I am not cheap with my guns but cell phones are a bit different. My life does not rely on a phone.

Good luck finding 'any' pre-owned iPhone for that amount of money. Any reasonably current iPhone in pre-owned condition is going to cost you three to four times your budget.

I just checked Tracphone’s website-they offer a 32 gig iphone 6s for $140.

https://shop.tracfone.com/shop...tracfonestore/phones

That’s admittedly an “obsolete” model, but I continue to use an older model than that, and am happy enough with it.

The TracFone website has some. A 6S is $139, is that is a current enough model for you.

Woot is owned by amazon. So if the phone turns out to be a dud, you can return it. Their open box phones have a 30 day warranty.

I’ve bought several things from woot over the years and not had a problem.

There are iPhones on Tracfone's website. No idea if they're the kind you want, but they do exist. https://shop.tracfone.com/shop...tracfonestore/phones

I'll instant karma you my iPhone 6 and its slim black Otterbox case. It's had a tempered glass screen protector since it was new so the screen is perfect. I've super-glued a magnetic mount to the case.

To be fair, this phone does not have many months left of being supported by Apple. I used to have a personal 6 and a business 6, but 1.5 years ago upgraded my personal phone and a month ago upgraded my business phone. The reason for the business phone upgrade was it couldn't be ugraded to latest iOS so IT wouldn't allow it to be connected to our IT systems.

I used it with both StraightTalk and AT&T.

We used it with Verizon and my wife wiped it after I got a new one, but I have no clue what gsm is....
