This is why iPhoneinCanada is around! Thanks for the heads-up! As for Rogers, there's just no logic even for this simple thing…..

Rogers reps will do anything for the sale and commission. Especially
tell you that a used phone is “new”.

Selling Used phones at new prices, thats one step away from Bestbuy/Future shop , Repackaging Returns and selling as new the next day ( i know this because i found my own Marked box i retuned, i marked it myself ) i can see them telling people its new when in fact its a returned model. then i sense a lawsuit lol.

I'm thinking because of the backorder on iPhone 3GS's, people who don't want to wait anymore are willing to buy slightly used iPhones. Thus, it saves Rogers money from having to deal with returned iPhones.

They fail because the oleophobic screens on the 3GS wear out and are VERY VERY noticeble when they do

WOW is right! Rogers, Rogers, Rogers (Shaking head)

I could see if they were selling them for a few hundred $$$ used (Of course most likely on a 3 year contract)
I would never let Rogers employees restore my iPhone neither. I bet many people would return jailbroken iPhones and a simple restore with iTunes does NOT delete all the information. Some files are still left behind, along with personal data.
Why not pay the same price and get a brand new one!

WOW

i guess this is legal but I find it hard to believe anyone will go for a phone with the same price and reduced warranty, and worn parts

Roger's never ceases to amaze me. It's like they keep trying to test the limits of what it will take to finally drive all their customers away.
