Does buying a used phone from ebay still work with AT&T?
Just wanted to make sure you can still buy an AT&T phone from ebay and take the sim card from your existing AT&T phone on the next plan (that is fully paid off) and put the sim card in the used ebay phone. This probably sounds dumb but I've had an AT&T employee tell me you can't do that anymore.

I don't see why not. The employee more than likely wanted you to just buy a new phone. What you'll want to do before you buy though, is cross check the phone's IMEI to make sure that it isn't a stolen device. Just obtain the IMEI from the eBay seller, then call an AT&T store and ask them if the IMEI is clean, if it is then ask them if it will work with your plan. If both those things check then you can buy the eBay phone! Voila, you have a new phone! Good luck with your purchase!
