  1. you can go to http://www.agoodseller.com to inquiry them.they are do business with mobile phones and Accessories .their customer service specialists will help you
  2. Get in touch with these guys, they are the biggest Virgin Mobile master dealer in North America. http://www.brightpoint.com/Brightpoint/NorthAmerica/33/English/73/VirginMobileAuthorizedRetailerProgram/13865.html You also might want to test market it in your area. The hottest prepaid brands right now are 1)Boost Mobile 2)Straight Talk by Tracfone/Verizon. Both are popular because of their unlimited plans. The problem is that Straight Talk has no dealer programs (only Walmart and their own website) and Boost is barely giving its dealers a percentage unlike when they first started. Virgin Mobile's strongest points are 1)Cheap phones. 2)Sprint network. 3)Texting plans, expecially Texter's Delight Unlimited. 4)Kickback code plans , free minutes for customers. Most of their overall offerings are overshadowed by the likes of Boost, Straight Talk, Page Plus and others. Virgin Mobile's Unlimited talk plan is okay at $50, but other Sprint prepaid resellers like Platinum Tel offer more services for the same price (Talk/text/100 megs data for $50, unlimited data for $10 more). They are somewhat getting left behind by other prepaid carriers in value for the money. I would get a few Virgin Mobile phones for cheap like the $19 Samsung Slash at Walmart.com(online only) , the $10 Jax at Best Buy /Radio Shack, some of the other cheaper phones , a couple of the top ones, etc and test the market .Qwerty's are hot. VM has three in their lineup which goes perfectly with their Texter's Delight unlimited plan. All I can say is do your homework and have other prepaid options so that you can compete better (Page Plus, Tracfone, Boost mobile, etc). The biggest issues for prepaid customers are 1)Cheap unlimited plans. 2)Flexibility. 3) Network coverage. 4) Being able to bring your own phone. Virgin Mobile has 1)Kind of . 2)Pretty good. 3)Pretty good. 4)Can't be done. Read www.prepaidreviews.com and the real life customer reviews of Virgin Mobile to preemptively address any potential customer service problems before it happens. Virgin Mobile's weak points are 1)Customer service. 2)They overcharge/double charge customers on autopay/debit/credit/paypal accounts. 3)Everything is vague and there are a lot of hidden charges and fine print. Be aware of them for your customers sake. If you need more details, lmk , I have a friend in Cali who runs his own cell phone shop and he is a Virgin Mobile dealer (as well as Tmobile, Verizon, Sprint). And NEVER go exclusive with only one brand. You live by one brand, you die by one brand. Btw, Virgin Mobile and the little known cdma division of Boost mobile are set to merge. Virgin was bought out by Sprint earlier this year and I expect there to be a lot of changes (probably for the better) in the coming year. Good luck. This is the most exciting year in prepaid I've ever seen.
