I dont know whether this is a repost but was checking the wind website and found it. Its in-store only and i called a couple of the stores and they said they have few Sony's, Nexus 6P and Motorola's. If the prices are as good as last time, then its surely a hot deal.
I could only know the price of Sony Xperia M4 Aqua and it was about $130.
Best of luck!

I saw this last night but couldn't find any mention of it on
Their social media outlets. Will check around tomorrow and confirm

When given enough time, all threads on RFD can and will go off on a tangent.

Just called a store in GVR and ask for these Lightly Loved/refurbished. $550 for a Note 5. $450 for Nexus 6P.
Forget it!

Why don't they post the list of phones and their prices online like last time?

Probably very limited stock and sparsley distributed among stores.

Is there a list somewhere with prices? I really don't want to call random stores and ask, they don't usually pick up and when they do are incredibly difficult.

Wind describes them as,

A Lightly Loved phone has either been returned to WIND within 2 weeks of usage from the purchase date in working order and without physical damage OR has been refurbished back to working order without physical damage.

I've purchased two lightly loved phones in the past and they were pretty much brand new.

Just called the wind mobile at Metrotown and the Rep confirmed that they did have lightly loved phones for sale, but when I asked about any 6P's,he quoted me $649 for a 32gb which isnt much of a sale lol.

Where'd you guys find $450 for a 6p? I'm looking for one!

$650 is the current sale price for a new 6P, the guy likely made a mistake.

It seems like this sale started on the 28th. If I had to guess, the reason they're not advertising it heavily is because of the feces-storm that happened last sale - phones were ringing nonstop and employees were getting pissed.

I see an easy solution to this. Wind should buy back all the lightly loved phones from dealers and corporate stores and sell them online.

You do have to be a wind customer...best option is to go on prepaid...pay for the 30days and don't renew...

Last time I lucked out and was able to get a BlackBerry Q10....great mp3 player!!

Mint condition...came with headphones and charger..no OEM box and you only get to test in-store...there is warranty (I think 30 days) but all sales final!
