Moto G 5G - Open Box- $169 -Warm deal?

Deal Link:: https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/Moto-G-5G- ... hrelevance
Retailer:: Walmart - Fulfillment

I just received this phone from walmart.ca and it looks brand new, it comes with Motorola charging accessories and box.
Motorola.ca sells this phone brand new for $399 , its a new model with Android 12 factory installed with a future Android 13 update this year.
I know it's not a the best device out there but it does have a decent 6.5 in 720P screen with 90 hz refresh and good specs with the MediaTek Dimensity 700 5G processor.. it actually runs real smooth and the big display is not bad at all.
If you are in a pinch and need a budget phone for under $200 shipped with taxes included then this is not bad plus if you don't like it you can return in store as well since it is fulfilled by Walmart.

I have spent 2 months dealing with a Walmart seller who sold me a $393, Asus laptop with Ryzen 4800, 32 gigs and an RTX 2060 on board: sure deal was too good to be true but took 2 months to get Walmart, my credit card and the seller to agree it was a scam.

Koodo too: for a phone and locked to 24 months but was a good deal.

yeah been there with walmart suppliers fulfilled by Walmart. Heck the Godfather to my daughter was telling me today of a horror story with them going on since August: and as a God father he tried to make them an offer they couldn't refuse.

Thanks OP put my order in, I'm hoping they have more than 1 open box

Introduced in 2020 one hopes there's enough battery for a few more years, Amazon has them for $200 all day.

I see. Kinda weird...seems like the same phone? Both sold by the same 3rd party seller, but one is free shipping, and not the other.

If it is truly in Open Box condition, ie. Like new, then seems like a good deal...better than all those Costco Moto phone deals.

Keep in mind that this specific model does have a 3.5mm jack for headphones. BUT... It does NOT have NFC for anyone looking to use it with Google Pay.

I paid $159.99 for it on Dec 21 and am still waiting for the delivery. It's supposed to arrive by Jan 05, with a Fedex label being created on Dec 24, but somehow got delayed because it never reached Fedex per tracking info. Kinda interesting or annoying or both but I'm still planning to wait until when I lose patience.

Did you buy it from Canadian Outlet and pay for shipping?
I bought it from Walmart.ca fulfillment Wednesday evening and received it Friday 10:00am via TForce courier but I am local to the fulfillment centre.

Returns info from the link I posted:

There are two easy ways to return this item:
