Buying an Unlocked GSM S4 on eBay? Need a SIM Card

Newbie

If I buy an unlocked GSM Galaxy S4 from eBay, will Verizon give me a SIM card for free?

Is GSM the better way to go or should I stay with CDMA? I currently have an SIII, which is CDMA.

Thanks.

Great question holden 190. We are only able to activate verizon wireless compatible devices. If you have an active account we can provide you with a SIM card by mail or at the store for your phone. Are you having any issues with your current phone? We can help.

So if the unlocked GSM phone is Verizon-compatible, you can activate it and I can pick up a free SIM card in a Verizon store?

My current Galaxy S3 is fine, but I'm buying an S4 unlocked to keep my unlimited data plan.

That is correct, holden190! As long as it is the Verizon Wireless model, we can provide a free sim card and activate it. I just sent you a follow request. Follow me back and send me this information in a private message so that we can check on this.

I am looking forward to hearing back from you.

Thank you,
