My craziest is I had a guy give me a gun to flash his phone. (and the serial number cleared through the police department)
I also had a guy give me a working TP to flash a Touch.

Heck yeah. It's a good business to be in. Everybody needs a phone. I had a transmission go out on me on a car and I installed a network for a guy to replace the tranny. I still have the car and his network is humming along.

You gotta love capitalism.

:^/ Have them looked over by someone who knows his stuff. An antique would be a definite go, but a reproduction would be iffy. If it's a good reproduction it may be a good trade. If it's cheap, I'd give it a pass.

A good rule of thumb would be never to barter for something you would mind not being able to get rid of again. That is, don't trade for something you wouldn't want to get stuck with.

U guy's don't wanna know some of the stuff I've gotten. Lets just say I deal in some underground stuff. However I just gave my 4 yr old son a $135 skate board I got as collateral 4 a flash I did on a LG8560. I have an HTC (SNAP) S511 I got 4 a partial flash on an M550. I just kicked a chick out 4.... Well I'm not gonna go in2 that.

However I do have 50 phones that I have simply acquired from ppl

I get offered drugs and game systems all the time for this. It is mostly stuff I refuse. It is data transfers I get interesting things for strangely. I got $10 and a German chocolate cake for a data transfer from a treo to a curve. I also got a rumor 2 and an omnia for a data transfer from the omnia to a treo. The guy then came back in and paid $10 for a transfer from the treo to a curve. Basically he just gave me two phones.

you should make a post on how you transfered data, im sure it'll be useful to people

As much as I'd love to have something to contribute to the boards, the process really isn't guide worthy. My shop has a cellebrite to transfer data. You hook one phone to one side and another phone to the other and choose the right phones and press next. The part that makes it a service you can sell isn't that it is difficult. It is that the machines cost a lot of money.
