Classic Cell Phone Collection Part 4: Motorola StarTAC 8000g 1996

This is an unbelievably rare phone. One of two models of StarTACs that work in the United States on the GSM network. The other is the 7000g which is the next video in this series. It's from 1996 and uses a credit-card SIM instead of the postage-stamp SIMs we use now a days. Credit-card SIMs were only used for a couple years in the U.S. From 1995-1996.

OK Guys,

The guy I got my StarTAC from is unloading the rest of his 8000g and 7000g's on eBay right now!! 7 Days 'till the auctions end. There are 9 of them. I got mine for $350 so these prices are really good and you WILL NOT be able to find unlocked ones (or even locked for that matter) this easily for a very long time. Maybe never. I hunted for 6 months for mine.

Go to eBay and search for StarTAC 7000g or StarTAC 8000g. There are 6 7000g's and 3 8000g's. Or search for user fxtech.
