Im talking with a guy right now about purchasing a BB 8310 from him for $60. Comes with orignal box, manuals, and accessories. Im new to blackberry and my only experience with BB devices is a Pearl that was loaned to me for a few weeks and using friends devices here and there. My question is does anybody think there is any reason that an 8310 less than a year old should run me about $60? and is there anything I should know about the 8310? Ive been reading reviews left and right and aside from it have no wifi, it seems very solid. Id like to hear some of your experiences

Sounds fishy to me. Price is too low.

[imkaelinmcintyre]

I talked him down from $125. Im meeting up to get it off of him before me and a friend head out to the city tonight

[penguin3107]

Well, good luck then.

[imkaelinmcintyre]

thank you sir. All my friends either had the 8300, or the 8330 and ive yet to know anybody that has the 8310 so I needed a little bit of feedback on the device since all I was getting online were like tech reviews

It's basically the 8300 with GPS.

The only way that price is legit is if the BlackBerry is in worn condition. Sounds like the kind of price a crackhead would ask for when selling a stolen BB.

Agreed! I actually just sold my 8310 to a buddy for $50... But that was an insider's deal for sure. I'd have gone at least twice that on the open market.

The 8310 is for sure a solid device and I enjoyed using it. I'm the cellular equipment go-to guy at work and I'm moving on to other devices, otherwise I'd probably still have it on my hip!

Yup. I've given "friend" prices to folks I know on older devices. I even have given away a number of older BlackBerrys. But caution should be exercised on any deal with a stranger.
