Can i purchase an iPhone and have it work on TMobile?

If i buy an ATT iPhone on Ebay or craigslist could i just swap my tmobile sim card and have it work perfectly? I'm using an older Android right now and I'm on a family plan if it helps.

    Yes you can. You will most likely have to buy a sim card since the Iphone uses a smaller one. You will also have to unlock the phone. Its about $25 to unlock it and another $25 for the sim card. I know because I bought an iPhone from eBay and I'm using it on Tmoblie.

    Or like the other person said, you can buy the new iPhone 5 that Tmobile offers but it will be more expensive. Ive been using my iPhone on Tmoblie for almost a year and have had no issues. The only disadvantage used to be that you could only get 3g on it(if you were lucky) But not anymore. I am now getting 4g ;)
