Great Deal!
Link for the 105$ Droid Turbo please? :p
Probably a private seller who had one to sell at auction format. Not a "dealer" who sells many at "buy it now" prices.

When I sell a phone on eBay when you get it that's all there is, just that one.

Also, many individual sellers on U.S. eBay will not take bids from outside the U.S. nor ship to buyers outside the U.S. If I remember, you are in Jordan? So, unless you are using a U.S. VPN to browse U.S. eBay you won't even see some items for sale.

Just finished unlocking my Droid Turbo and I bought another from eBay ($105.00)
Was the seller from Davenport Iowa? That one was $105 and I was going to buy it lol. You beat me to it lol.

I am really glad to hear .49 can be unlocked. I am going to buy another turbo. Put this employee edition back in the box. Paid $320 for it and it was never used. Now, it's updated to .44 unlocked bootloader with 1.3.7 CFs ROM on her. Other turbo,......I lost my temper on. Just need one that is a bad ESN with good screen. Will save her ad parts. $25 to unlock is a great price. I bet they are a lot turbos being unlocked hehe.

I have bought phones with a bad IMEI just for the parts, sometimes you can get those real cheap and it beats buying just the screen/digitizer alone which is usually WAY overpriced

The bad esn ones I found all have SMG screens. I might buy one that is Google locked.
SMG??....Sub Machine Gun??. My original Turbo was bought off of eBay for $108 and I just stashed it in a drawer waiting for this moment. Anyways, $25 to have my bootloader un-locked is way cheap and AWESOME!!!!!

What is the best way to install twrp again? I tried the play store but says root required.... Boot loader unlocked. Should I do a temp through sunshine again or what... Thanks

Best way I like is using adb fastboot.

Latest TWRP is here from our Quark TWRP maintainer, @baybutcher27:

twrp-3.0.2-0-Mod_03-quark.img
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24665509702140399

posted August 8, 2016:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68102703&postcount=146

The official thread is here:
[RECOVERY][OFFICIAL TWRP 3.0.2-0][For all Quark][Moto Maxx/Turbo and Droid Turbo]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...recovery-twrp-2-8-7-0-touch-recovery-t3180308

But that latest version is not yet on TWRP's servers for some reason. It eventually will be.

My Turbo is turning off during Sunshine, and I have to manually turn it on again. Isn't it supposed to turn on again automatically (it says it'd restart)?
When it turns on, it says the bootloader is unlocked, but flashify complains that my device isn't rooted.


---EDIT---
Just to make it clear, I'm an almost complete noob here (only ever rooted a Samsung tablet, and there I could use Odin)

Is your phone fully charged? To use flashify you have to be rooted. Yes sunshine should reboot your phone. I never mess with it when it is doing what ever sunshine was made to to. If your bootloader is unlocked, does not mean your rooted. You needed to install twrp. The above post has links. You can also watch a video link I posted #55 by Rootjunky. It helps to understand. When you install twrp, you can download supersu and flash it using twrp or flashify.

Read up here. If you have problems like I did. Follow what I did and other posted.
