As I was observing boiling stripers my mad dash to them made me totally forget that my phone was exposed, I dropped it along the sprint and it got washed away in the incoming tide. Super bummed tons of family photos... It has a lifeproof case but I cannot locate it on Find my iPhone.. So I think I am SOL.

I dont want to pay $$$$$ for a new phone... I just bought this one in Feb..

Willing to pay 0-$150 for any iphone 5 or newer that is Verizon or ATT... I had a 6S Plus... wouldnt mind having a 5 again.. I have a brand new lifeproof case for it.. so it would work out for the best.. anything helps, tried Craigslist already, everythings a drive and $200+

FWIW--
wal mart marina has the new in box with 2 yr factory straight talk iphone 5s for 149$
and they sell the 45 no added fees cards(42 when i set it up to atuo enroll)--I finally went 20th century last month and got a iphone...also got 49$ 2 yr lost or etc(the kid said the factory is just as good 2yr-wal mart is hand broke get good in hand)...almost paid for itself ,when I left it at coral st during bike week sunset ride-- I now have 2 (back up)lol--I went and bought the whole she bang again and then some dude found mine and found me through itunes half mesg on locked screen...

149$ for new 5s is good deal

lifeproof case for 5s or the redpepper waterproof deals on ebay for both phones..redpepper seems tougher and was only 20$

Thanks for the info my friend!! Too bad I'm stuck in a contract with Verizon... Its a great Idea... Does your phone have a sim card slot on the side of it by any chance???? If so... that means I can just buy the phone and put verizons in it!

Already have a new Lifeproof case for a 5 that actually I was trying to sell, but it may end up working out if I can get one for it...

another option is to look on amazon. Search iphone 5 and go into the used area. I purchased one for a buddy a few weeks ago for 140. It was a verizon 16 gb only however.

It came within 2 days if it was prime
