it was activated before 11/11 but im selling it so when the next person activates it, will it still be unlocked?

Don't confuse "unlocked for international travel" with "unlocked to use on any network"...In other words, don't advertise it is an "unlocked iPhone 4S"..Cause it is not.

Exactly.
In the US it will only work with Sprint and no other US carrier.
If you sell it to someone outside the US it will work with any GSM international carrier.
