Subject says it all. Phone is now dead. Tried another battery no-go. Put it in charger and red light just blinks. Since this phone is the second line on my account and has no insurance. Verizon say I can either buy a new phone and extend the contract, buy a new phone with no contract (too pricey) or find someone with an old Verizon phone and I can assign my number to that phone. I would like to get another 4500 since I have the cable and the software and the other phone on the plan is a 4500. I have been all over the web so let me ask. Is there a site that sells new or refurbished phones that I can use to replace this dead one preferably with another 4500?

Thanks

Len

There's always eBay. I bought my vx7000 on eBay and it works like a charm. On ebay the vx4500's go for about 10 to 70 bucks.Getting one without a charger drops the price substantially since you already have one. As for buying cell phones from stores online they can be much more and are often only sold in wholesale amounts. Your best bet would be to buy on eBay. I had the vx45000 myself before i upgraded and it's a very good phone. Good Luck!

I totally go with the whole eBay thing, Great idea but if u plan to stay with verizon i hear that cables and software for lgs are universal with some phones. Like on the box for the cable it says for LG 4500/4600/4650/4700 or something. Just suggesting, i feel safer when a phone comes verizon direct.

Thanks for the info. I Just picked one up on EBAY for $66. Crossing fingers I can activate it when it arrives.
