Free cameras !!! free phones !!!!

[Christian Graus]

I assume free phones are sold on a contract with an obscene monthly charge or call charge.

AHAHAHA I got that one yesterday. I told him I wasnt interested in it, and he seemed genuinly surprised. It makes me wonder how many people fall for it

Yeah, I said 'you must be looking for stupid people' and hung up because the last time I got the surprise and the 'how could you not want this when you're so lucky' reaction.

My usual answer to unsolicited calls is to say "I'll just get my wife, she deals with these things". Then put the phone down, still connected, and walk away. I go back after 5 minutes and usually they have gone by then. (Once had a girl hang on for nearly 10 mins!) I figure the call is costing them money and while I hold them they can't annoy someone else, so I am doing my bit for society as a whole! :)

Aren't all phones free with a contract? That's been pretty much standard practice for the last 10 years in the UK. Really wasteful system if you ask me as people upgrade their phone just because it's the only thing you seem to be able to get out of your operator. I know loads of people who get themselves a new phone every year and most years stick it straight on e-bay still boxed.

Once they called me and told me that i won a free watch and i only need to pay for the delivery, i said yes and when they came they told me the coast of the delivery was 20$ and the free watch is so bad shape that it it's coast is 1 $ Never do it again

In the US cheaper models are free (the ones that can be paid for at ~$10/mo over the length of the contract - basic models or ones that're end of life). Newer ones with loads of features or bling are extra.
