If I'm reading this correctly, it's coverered by Ebay's Money Back Guarantee, and Ebay is defining Open Box as "An item in excellent, new condition with no wear. The item may be missing the original packaging or protective wrapping, or may be in the original packaging but not sealed. The item includes original accessories. The item may be a factory second. See the seller's listing for full details and description."
Open box is fine, the problem is that it's Verizon firmware. Booooo
Was curious what having Verizon firmware does to this phone?
Also, does anyone know if this should still work with Tracfone? I know it says unlocked...just don't know if the Verizon version screws anything up with using other carriers like Tracfone?

I still have an unlocked 4 XL around here. Would you happen to know if it's that the Verizon model is SIM/carrier unlocked, but the bootloader will be locked (so no rooting / custom ROMs)? I know on mine, both are unlocked (since it's the factory unlocked model). Thanks in advance!
The main concern should be the battery. If it is used/open box not "refurbished", then it may still have the original battery in the phone (Pixel 4 was released on Oct 2019).

that and the pixel 4 was known to have a less than average battery life to begin with

Correct, sim unlocked, but never bootloader unlockable with the Verizon version of the Pixel.
