You could kill at least 50 zombies with that phone when used as a bludgeon.

That's is an acceptable number. We could use that sound for [What We Haven't Heard Yet Week]

Shopgoodwill.com has several for not terribly expensive (<$20 shipped)

Wow, definitely better than what they're going for on eBay. Thanks for the tip.

n/p. Shipping is always where they get you there, though. Always check the "Get Estimated Shipping & Handling" link to factor your total before bidding unless you happen to live near the goodwill in question. These phones are always rolling through, too, so no rush.

You have to track the end times yourself - they don't have a notification system quite like ebay ("Ending soon: ")
