Deal: BlackBerry Priv on sale for just $224.99 (20% off) on eBay

BlackBerry stopped selling some of its smartphones in the United States, including the Priv and Passport. However, these devices are still available for purchase at various retailers across the country, it's just that BlackBerry won't be selling them any longer through its official channels.

Currently, customers can pick up the unlocked BlackBerry Priv for as low as $280 outright. Well, it appears that there's a much better deal available on eBay if you still want to buy one of BlackBerry's controversial smartphones.

The unlocked 32GB BlackBerry Priv can be had for just $224.99, so anyone who buys it would save $55. It's worth mentioning the eBay seller ships doesn't ship to anywhere in the world, so if you're living in Africa, Asia, Middle East, Southeast Asia, Mexico, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Greece or Ukraine, then don't bother ordering the Priv.

If you plan on using the BlackBerry Priv in the United States, then keep in mind that it will only work on GSM carriers, so you can't use it on Sprint or Verizon if that's what you were thinking.

While $225 is a fair deal for the Priv, I think you can probably do better with the newest Moto G phones that are about in the same price range mostly because they already have Nougat and they have the bands for all carriers, something the Priv unfortunately doesn't have.

Great price for a still very capable handset. For what the PRIV offers in terms hardware (innovative physical keyboard and secure hardware by BlackBerry) and software (unmatched security provided by BlackBerry software and speedy security patches), you'll be hard pressed to find a handset that is better in the same price range.

The only problem on it is just the shipping and other fees that makes it 400$ or more in my country :/

It's an AT&T Priv with an unlock code attached.

And that's why having support for all carrier bands is better. You don't have to worry about getting an unlock code from AT&T. Just pop that SIM card out and go to work.
