I decided to walk up and down a highway exit and on ramps, and I looked down, and found myself a Blackberry Rim 7520!

I charged the phone, and looked at all of the messages and contacts, and it looks like it hasn't been activated since 10/29/10..

So, I looked online for a few places to sell it, and everyplace said that they would pay me $0.00...lol oh well

BTW.. I was able to get 2 supermarket plastic bags of crushed cans!

Does anyone have any ideas for what I should do with this crackberry??? (the battery and phone seem to work, but need a SIM card)

I'm finding more cell phones on the side of the road as well.

That model is too old and has almost no resale value. However, cell phones are a valuable scrap item, it just takes time to accumulate them.
