[Okay, so before I say anything else, I'd like to point out that I'm Australian and I don't know if the same rules apply here. Secondly, I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to be posting this, I just signed up to ask this question.]
Alright, well what I need help with is that my brother says his friend has an unlocked iPhone 4s that he wants to sell and I would like to buy it. The only problem is that it has a cracked screen and if possible I would like one without a cracked screen. When his friend was using it he claims it was with Optus and it was like prepaid or something; not on a plan (which I assume that's what unlocked means after reading some stuff).
I have no idea whether or not my brother should go with him to the apple store in Sydney first and if they are able to replace an unlocked one, and whether or not his friend got it unlocked after the contract finished or before. I don't know what he would have to do/go through to see if they can get it replaced (whether it be free or by paying 200 or so dollars, we don't care), or if it's easier to just get the screen itself fixed by someone else.
What should I do/ask his friend about the phone? I need your help guys, I've never been through anything like this before. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. :)
