Description
LG VX5200 (listed as Lg-vx5200-cr), Carrier Returns A-stock, Verizon
Sold under the SKU-style name Lg-vx5200-cr Carrier Returns A-stock, this is an LG VX5200 Verizon camera flip that came back through a carrier channel and was tested and graded A Grade on receipt: lightly used, fully working, minor marks at most. Prop departments and retro-tech resellers buy it as a clean 2005 Verizon clamshell for display and period use.
The LG VX5200 is a mid-2000s Verizon Wireless camera flip phone from LG's VX series: a clamshell with a color main display, an outer caller-ID screen, a VGA camera, and CDMA radio for Verizon's network. The source listing for this lot carries no description, so the row below sticks to what the model name and SKU establish.
Dealers buy the VX5200 from TG Wireless as tested carrier-return stock for collector, prop, and parts channels, since the CDMA network it was built for closed at the end of 2022 and it cannot be activated in the US.

Condition: A Grade
A Grade (A-Stock) units are lightly used, fully tested, and working, and may show very minor nicks or scratches. Units are supplied as graded; ask your account manager about packaging (original box, accessories, or handset only) when you request a quote.
Network and compatibility
The LG VX5200 is a CDMA handset built for the Verizon or Sprint network family and has no LTE or VoLTE. Verizon retired its CDMA network on December 31, 2022, Sprint's CDMA network closed the same year, and no US carrier activates CDMA-only phones now, so this unit gets no US voice or data service. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are collectors and retro-tech shops, film and TV props, parts, store display units, and Wi-Fi or offline use where the phone supports it.
Resale fit
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working Verizon and Sprint era handsets.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need a period-correct carrier phone.
- Parts and display units for repair shops, trainers, and store fixtures.
