So i was stupid and bought an iphone 6 off of craigslist. It was boost and I double checked to make sure it would work on sprint but I did not see that he would have to unlock if from his account. Now he will not return my calls. Does anyone now anything I can do or should i just chalk it up to a learning situation.

You should be able to get it working on Sprint. Boost is an MVNO of Sprint and uses at least a portion of their systems. So you shouldn't need to get it unlocked.

I would suggest going here: http://reddit.com/r/Sprint and asking for help from a CSR.

Someone should be able to help.
