BUSINESS DESCRIPTION HURRY ON THIS - PRICE JUST REDUCED TO $100,000 FOR IMMEDIATE SALE This very successful business, serves a very specific and required niche in the cellular phone market. This Cellular Phone Repair Service, unlocking phone service*, used phone sales and phone card services business is a one of a kind business. Other cellular phone businesses come and go, but this one is truly unique .. read on: At various times during the 12 years this business as been in operation, it has been an authorized cell phone dealer for T-Mobile, Cingular, Metro PCS and others. The repair segment has continued to grow and is a large part if not the largest part of his business. The mark up on the repair service, could easily average 500% for each repair. The material for the repair cost less than $1.00 on average. The repair cost to the customer averages $45.00 to $125.00 (much less than buying a new cell phone). The time for the repair is usually less than 10 minutes. They quote 3 hours (usually) to the customer. If the phone can't be repaired, the customer can purchase a used phone. Again, the cost, on average, is between $50 to $110 to the customer. The Seller buys these phones from customers on trade-ins or a customer just wanting to sell his/her phone for cash which they need. The Seller purchases these phones for $5.00 to $20.00 (compare this to the price they are sold for). This is a great business for someone wanting to relocate to the Tampa Bay area. Has everything you need for startup (it's already been done for you). There is great visibility in this strip center on a major road with great visibility from the street and excellent foot traffic. Owner already has many established clients in the database - A GREAT MARKETING TOOL! NOTE: The new owner could EASILY begin selling new cell phones as an authorized dealer and significantly increase the owner benefit. At various times during the past 12 years, the business has had new sales activations of 100 +++ per month. Actually, a new owner, doing the existing repair business and selling new phones, COULD ACTUALLY DOUBLE HIS/HER YEARLY EARNINGS. Do the math yourself and you will see that it could be a "no-brainer". From a demographic standpoint, this location and surrounding area is ideal and absolutely perfect for a new cell phone and accessory sales store. The average person can learn this business in one to two weeks. REVENUE SOURCES: Sells Cellular Service for:

Repairs include:
The business unlocks and flashes phones FYI * "Unlocking"- Phones are generally sold by wireless carrier for much less than their actual retail value. The wireless carrier often subsidizes the cost of the phone with the expectation that they can recover more than this amount throughout the subscriber's contract. They will try to make more than this amount throughout the subscriber's contract. They also try to make sure that the phone can only be used on their particular network and thus, locks the phone's software to their wireless network. Unlocking means clearing the phone's software setting so that the phone can be used on any network. "Flashing" Flashing involves re-writing the phone's operating system (the OS i.e. how you install windows on a computer to use it) to flashable ROM (Read Only Memory). Flashable means although it is called a ROM, it is possible to write it to in special cases such as when installing, changing or upgrading the OS. A full flash does erase all of your stored data (contacts, pics, txts, etc.) and settings, however, a professional technician or at least a knowledgeable phone geek will know how to properly backup and restore all your data and sometimes even your settings/preferences. The OS comes as what's called a "monster" pack, for typical mobile phones, or a ROM image for PDA/Smart phones. The phone technician/geek will have software that allows them to access your phone at the hardware level via a usb cable so that the OS can be written to the phone's ROM. (they have all the software needed to perform this) from the following manufacturer's across all carriers, including:
