You may FEEL like you paid $60 but that’s just the pricing model and marketing working!
Did you get your pixel 5 for free?
Cause if you didn’t you paid them more than $60.
You have them $60 and a working paid off phone.
Let’s say that it’s worth $350- you paid $410 and signed a contract that means you can’t leave for 3 years or you’ll pay full price.
this. verizon is not about to give you a phone for basically free. they want to make bank too.
why would i trade in my older phone for one that has dents in the screen from components pressing against it, anyway? they could offer to pay me and i'd refuse lmao
